Glenn Beck Blasts Media 'Rat Bastards' Who Report 'Fairy Tale' Obamacare Numbers

DYLAN SCOTT – APRIL 2, 2014, 5:37 PM EDT

It seems Glenn Beck is not buying what the Obama administration is selling on Obamacare enrollment.

In a particularly memorable rant on his radio show, during which he derides President Barack Obama as "sociopathic," Beck ripped the "rat bastards" in the media who uncritically reported on Obamacare's 7 million enrollees.

"This is complete bogus. This is a complete bogus fairy tale. This is completely made up. This is nonsensical," Beck said in a clip pulled by Right Wing Watch. “The emperor has no clothes. And everyone in the press, you rat bastards, every single one of you know what he’s saying isn’t true. You know it. You know it.”

Beck has company in his disbelief: The purveyor of Unskewed Polls and Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY).

That's the title at FreakOutNation. This part is at both websites:



Then, after an hour of ranting about Obama and the press and the Republicans, Beck finally snapped and declared that he is "not going to pay attention to these people any more, I am not going to waste my life," screaming that "I have a right to pursue my happiness, I have a right to do what I was born to do!"

"My state of mind is great," he concluded, "'cause I've had enough..."


Both FON and RWW have the videos of Beck raving and his employee agreeing with him...

From the comments, another gem:

Issa Subpoenas Seven Million Americans Who Signed Up for Obamacare


April 1, 2014 - WASHINGTON

Accusing them of involvement in “a widespread conspiracy to save President Obama’s failed health-care program,” Rep. Darrell Issa (R-California) today subpoenaed the approximately seven million Americans who have signed up for Obamacare so far.

Arguing that the impressive enrollment numbers “don’t pass the smell test,” the House Oversight Committee chairman told reporters, “Any rational person would come to the same conclusion that I have: namely, that this is a well-orchestrated conspiracy of seven million people trying to make Obamacare look good...”

Beck's last meltdown was after Obama was re-elected and now this, which shows that IRL, the Democratic Party and President are transforming the country.

Glennbeckistan is a whole 'nother country full of RWNJs, and feeling threatened by REALITY.
