1. Yes, poking and prodding them
Why in the world would that uppity, uh, Chicago person (whew!) think he had any right to govern the country? And who knew any of the tea baggers were crazy? We've been assured over and over again that they're just a bunch of concerned citizens, law-abiding to a fault, who care deeply about the U.S. and A.

4. So if one of them injures an elected representative, it's the President's fault?
Well, that's convenient, isn't it?

5. All of our
Justifed outrage isn't going to change him. Glenn Beck keeps getting rewarded over and over and over again. He will never go away unless he chokes on his breakfast one morning.

6. Yes.. . .that makes a lot of sense! After all the encouragement to violence
spewed by Beck, Palin, Hannity, and many of the other Fox Clowns!!!

I think there is some "projection" going on there!

11. Because neither the administration nor the Dems in congress have the courage to re-regiulate
the corporate media.

30. some gold companies and a survival seed package company
Goldline I think and another one.

It sort of begs the question- ever since COC's boycott and he lost like 60 to 90 sponsors, the only ones that are left are the ones that gain directly from his rhetoric.

If he makes people afraid, then they will buy gold and survival seeds, so they support his show and he designs his show to make his sponsors happy.

Of course, after people stop dumping money into the Ponzi scheme that is gold trading, and the price crashes, will they go after Beck?

10. Shit. He must think his fanatic followers are really going to try to pull something.
He also made a point to cover his ass with Palin's Alaska crazies.

I think Beckkk thinks something's really going to happen.

If it does, it's 100% ON HIM and Limpballs and everybody else who fanned the flames, regardless of his lame attempts to pre-emptively deflect the blame.

12. Man that lot has a deliberately crazy making agenda
Lie, make stuff up, lie some more, make crazy non sequiturs, lie again, then project everything you do onto your opponents.

It's a deliberate tactic. I'm not quite sure that any response but ignoring or committing people like Glen Beck is going to stop them.

18. Beck is so naive. He actually thinks HE will be safe if violence breaks out.
Edited on Wed Mar-24-10 07:03 PM by kestrel91316
He thinks all liberals are like Harry.

I have one word for you, Glen: Benito.

21. In other news: Nazis blame Jews for provoking Nazi violence
Two points:

1) Human beings never change, only our total energy budget

2) Beck represents the fact that, in our transformation to a full-blown RW Authoritarian State, the Perpetrators ALWAYS wind up blaming their victims for "bringing it on themselves" In this Beck is ironically similar to the Nazis of the past whom he is emulating.

Except that the Nazi/KKK madness and self-projection of the Nazis from the past and the Beck/Teabaggers of the present seems to render irony dead in a lunatic Orwellian RW Authoritarian society, like 21st Century America (kinder and gentler version) or 1930s Nazi Germany (old-school RW auhtoritarianism).

24. For someone who is mentally ill to get to spew his crap on the airwaves day after day is nuts
I would laugh at his crazy if these acts of violence weren't happening.

He has serious mental problems. He needs help.

When does free speech cross the line into inciting hate or violence? Is there a line?

31. Yes, how dare he govern the country from the seat to which he was rightfully elected.
That dastardly Negrofascist.

Beck is just a fool at this point. How can ANYONE take him seriously?

32. He is yelling "Fire" in a crowded theater.
This is not protected speech. It is rabble rousing demagoguery.

33. I'm sick of that shit-head
I couldn't watch the clip. Him and his stupid blackboard makes me want to hurl.
Where did he even come from? I don't remember him even being around a year ago.

34. Beck is just trying to cover his ass because the violence is getting a lot of air time.At the
same time, he know his latest rhetoric could incite some to
violence. He even appears to be egging 
people on in a twisted kind of way while at the same time
saying "I told them not to get
violent.
