New CNN host Beck rants: Jimmy Carter biggest "waste of skin"; "t least evil is using" skin of Kim Jong Il
Summary: During his nationally syndicated radio show, Glenn Beck repeatedly referred to former President Jimmy Carter as a "waste of skin," adding that North Korean leader Kim Jong Il was not a bigger waste of skin because "t least evil is using that skin."

During the February 8 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Glenn Beck repeatedly referred to former President Jimmy Carter as a "waste of skin" during a rant that culminated in Beck's taking votes from his executive producer Steve "Stu" Burguiere and producer Dan Andros on whether Carter was a "bigger waste of skin" than singer Britney Spears.

Responding to Carter's eulogy during the February 7 funeral for civil rights activist Coretta Scott King, Beck said that former President Bill Clinton, who had "roll around on the bathroom floor with a fat intern and a cigar," looked "like the classy one" during the funeral.

Beck, a recent hire of CNN Headline News, concluded that Spears' "accomplishments" in bringing "the Catholic schoolgirl uniform" back into prominence made her less of a waste of skin than Carter. He also concluded that North Korean leader Kim Jong Il was not a bigger waste of skin because "t least evil is using that skin."

1. Oh he's just a jackass

:mad: He can't even wipe Jimmy's shoes. :mad: UGH! What I've noticed though is they've ragged more on Jimmy than they have anyone else!

[catmother]

43. because jimmy's out there speaking the truth.

:)

[FormerRepublican]

2. What a loser. Consider the source. Rabid dogs foam at the mouth.

[Straight Shooter]

30. Yes. And maggots crawl from rotten meat.

Vultures would gag before feasting on Beck's carcass.

[Mythsaje]

3. Coming from a complete waste of oxygen,

that might actually be considered a compliment.

[Ladyhawk]

4. Jimmy Carter has done more good in his life than this "Beck"

person would do in a thousand lifetimes. I don't have TV, but this guy needs to STFU.

[Tigress DEM]

25. JImmy Carter does more good by 9am than Beck will do in his lifetime.

Unless Beck decides to be a real journalist and talk about the honest to God waste of skin that was sitting behind Jimmy, squirming in his chair when the truth hit the air close by him.

[mr.sparkle]

5. the new FOX

CNN has really sunk to a new low by hiring this right-wing hack....a pity to lose a once prestigious news organization

[Viva_La_Revolution]

29. and that other RW hack. what-ever-the-f*ck-his name is.

Trying to race FAUX to the bottom of the barrel? WTF?

[napi21]

6. I wondered where this nasty POS was! I never watch HLN.

I guess that's why! I heard CNN had hired this idiot, but thankfully, I hadn't see him. Thanks for letting me know he's on HLN. I never watch that, and now I know I never will.

[Tigress DEM]

26. Make sure CNN knows why you aren't watching.

28. done n/t

[napi21]

38. Thanks for the link! I just sent my mail. n/t

[mr.sparkle]

41. done and done

thanks for the link!! :applause:

[BushOut06]

7. He also called him a Habitat for Humanity loser

Leave it to a repug to call someone who offers much of their time to charity a friggin loser.

[Zynx]

8. The right-wing is imploding in its own hatred.

[brettdale]

9. Was he the guy

Who had a sign c, "Bitch in the Ditch" at Cindy Sheehan's protest.

[GetTheRightVote]

10. How unprofessional of this man, grow up is about all one can say

to such an idiot and I feel really sorry for CNN since they hired him.


:kick:

[Blue_Tires]

11. the good news is

just like Drudge, Savage, and Limpballs (on ESPN) who all had their own shows, give Beck a little time and it's a certainty that he will dig his own grave by saying something so inflammatory that even CNN can't defend it....

My personal over/under on how long he stays is 8 weeks

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

20. Mighty generous of you.

3 1/2 weeks.

[Fridays Child]

12. That's so bad it almost makes you wonder if he's a shill.

Has he started his gig on CNN yet?

[saltpoint]

13. Mr. Beck is a hatemonger. Use that remote and switch over to

the History Channel or something.

Better yet, rent a DVD for the evening.

Jimmy Carter was on LARRY KING LIVE the other day and called Dubya's wiretapping "illegal, improper, and unnecessary."

Beck's got nothin' to counter THAT.

[CottonBear]

14. Jimmy Carter is a great American, a true patriot and a real Christian.

Pay these "media" people and "political pundits" no mind.

Jimmy Carter is of the same mold as Martin and Coretta.

Let us rejoice that America was truly blessed to have Carter as our President.

Pay no mind to the "media" whores. President Carter and we will go on doing the good and moral things and live good and honest lives.

Peace. CB

[Octafish]

15. NAZIs talked of 'waste of skin.'

Is CNN hiring NAZIs? I mean, more of them?

[Hubert Flottz]

40. That's the first thing I thought of too...

Maybe this would be more to the liking of the Wolves at CNN!

http://www.scrapbookpages.com/Buchenwald/Atrocities.html

I think there were several people in the SS named Beck, maybe the guy's daddy? Arnold's dad was a Nazi too, and Bush's grandpa was Hitler's banker here in the US during the war, Reagan laid a wreath at the grave of the SS men in Germany! Nazis-R-Us might be a better name for the GOP...

[DemInDistress]

16. this jackass needs to be arrested under the new,"annoyance law"

he certainly annoys me, who is he? why does anyone listen/watch him? is it necessary? I quit cnn a long time ago except for lou dobbs and he sometimes tows the party line but his broken borders segment is good.

[Ksec]

17. Another angry hatemonger republican spewing vile

The RNC is an angry hate filled extremist party. Gad, its scary whats become of that party.

[Bjornsdotter]

18. Nobel Prize

I don't know who Beck is, but does he have a Nobel Prize?

Jimmy Carter does....I love Carter, I'm reading his new book now.

Cheers

[Tigress DEM]

27. Jimmy - 1 Nobel Prize // Beck - 1 Burning Bag of Shit Prize

I am as close as you can get to being an atheist, without claiming the tag; I found his book to be uplifting and straight to the point, but too quick of a read. :)

[wisteria]

19. I e-mail them. I am tired of these bullies. n/t

[thefloyd]

21. Beck is completely wasting

my oxygen with vitriol and hate

[Tigress DEM]

22. Feedback to CNN

CNN Headline News was one of the only mainstream media news shows I could stand. At least on FAUX I expect juvenille crap like this.

Beck is beyond infantille and simply an inbred moron if he thinks that Jimmy Carter is a waste of skin. Former President of the United States - who happened to actually SHOW UP for WORK during his term of office - and who has since his time as President been an excellent ambassador to the world on our behalf and a caring participant/supporter of Habitat for Humanity.

What has Beck ever done that gives him the right to criticize someone who has paid their dues? Creep. I won't watch CNN Headline News anymore if he's going to be on it. Obviously he must think he's Limbaugh or Hannity and they are more than enough bigotry, ignorance and flatulant verbage than America EVER needed outside a movie aimed at 3rd to 7th graders.

Disgusting.

[Fire Walk With Me]

23. They're threatened.

If anyone wants to critique Carter, let them do half the good deeds Carter has done before they begin to talk.

[HuckleB]

24. Lowbrow sells. And you must get lower every year, apparently.

The dumbing down of America continues.

[upi402]

31. lowbrow, the land of the free

[shance]

33. Thanks for the info Adenoid. Will call.

n/t

[NVMojo]

34. at least he's not corrupt. What a piece

of crap this beck is ...

[misanthrope]

35. And Pres. Carter's real broken up over it, I'm sure**nm

[genieroze]

36. That jerk is a waste of life.

[orwell]

37. Welcome to CNN Glenn...

...we got your white hood all cleaned and pressed!

[lakeguy]

39. just contacted cnn...

don't know what good it will do though.

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

42. Was it the Klingons who used that expression, or was it the Cardassians?

Is Beck a Trek fan?

I hope not, but leave it to him to pick up on the most negative thing, if he is.



Answer:

It was the Romulans who said humans and Klingons are a "waste of skin."

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

44. He stole the idea from Star Trek!!!! See prior post. n/t

"Lieutenant Worf echoes the modern Klingon attitude toward Romulans when he says the enemy "considers humans and Klingons a waste of skin". Romulans and Klingons having been "blood enemies" for 75 years (or since about 2292), after an extremely brief alliance."

From a fan site:

[Deja Q]

45. Beck - not synonymous with Feck

[sandrakae]

46. Yea, well Glen Beck was a waste of sperm.

[Nutmegger]

47. He's a waste of brain cells

Or a waste of space or a waste of oxygen or a waste of... :banghead:

[clu]

48. the mind boggles considering that he's on television

I'd like to boggle his mind with a medieval mace.

edited to clarify subject

[proud2BlibKansan]

49. When is this chump on?

Did you hear that Rush said there will be a bunch of babies born 9 months after the funeral?

These assholes have no shame.

[Initech]

50. Glenn Beck is a waste of flesh, skin, blood...

And you can throw out the intelligence part because he's obviously lacking in that category.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

51. Boy, CNN's finest hour, hiring this gem of humanity, and Bennett, eh?

[Warren DeMontague]

52. Then he talked about the "Hyena-like laughter of the liberal democrats

being strangled in their throats" as he goose stepped off with Ann Coulter to the 10:15 showing of Triumph of the Will.
