Glenn Beck claims only ‘hookers’ use Planned Parenthood

[RamboLiberal]

The non-profit group that provides life-saving medical screenings to millions of women every year is only used by “hookers,” according to right-wing conspiracy host Glenn Beck.

He made the startling comment during his radio broadcast Monday, mocking MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell’s impassioned defense of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.

“Stop just a second!” Beck said as they played a recording of O’Donnell recounting a letter he’d received. “Hookers? Who depends on Planned Parenthood? I’ve got 400 abortions that I have to have! I have to have these children aborted!”

What a piece of crap you are Beck!

[Drale]

1. Glen Beck knows a ton about Hookers

since thats the only love he is able to get.

[doc03]

2. Isn't Beck kind of a prostitute? n/t

[mrcheerful]

4. Yes but he can't get pregnant so it doesn't matter who pays him for lip service

[RavensChick]

3. He's falling apart!

This dude makes Charlie Sheen look normal by comparison.

[provis99]

5. he at least makes Charlie Sheen look sympathetic by comparison.

Sheen obviously has drug problems and mental illness. What is Assclown Beck's major malfunction?

9. It's getting pretty close to Howard Beale time

and you remember how that turned out. :scared:

6. I went to Planned Parenthood for yearly exams while single

I have news for Beck. I'm not a prostitute, and I never have been. Perhaps he'd like to contact me. I'll be more than happy to go on his program and prove to him that I was just a starving single girl with no health insurance.

I'd call him an asshole, but that's an insult to assholes.

13. So did my mother when she was in her 20s

And she isn't/wasn't a prostitute. I can't wait until this happens to him : :nuke:

7. Hell, even the sleaziest hooker wouldn't pull a trick on the BecKKK.

[MyrnaLoy]

8. Even if he was correct,

which everyone knows is impossible, his so-called "hookers" are still human beings entitled to the services provided by planned parenthood. A chosen profession should never be used to demean or deny anyone the basic medical services provided by planned parenthood. His comment makes him look even more like an idiot and a bigot.

[surrealAmerican]

14. Not only that, but ...

... since a large part of the services they provide is screening and treatment for STDs, even if all their patients were "hookers" they would be providing a service which is very valuable to the general population.

[Curmudgeoness]

10. Is he calling me a whore??? Why do we even care what he says?

Hell, even the Republicans have started ignoring him these days as he gets crazier and crazier.

[blondeatlast]

16. I think he called millions upon millions of us whores. nt

11. Sadly, the truth does not matter...

...all that matters is that Beck and others like him get the slurs out there. Then it burrows into the psyches of their listeners, and later, even though people know that it is not just hookers using the services, they have this subconscious distasteful feeling about the kind of people who use the services. And then it's all that much easier to slash and burn the organization. Note also the lies that are being spread about how 90% of what Planned Parenthood does is abortions. It's a raging lie, but it doesn't matter. Again, the idea burrows down into people's psyches, and so even when presented with factual information, they just don't trust it. They're sure there must be something wrong and immoral about the organization.

It works well with individual too, and the right wing smear machine is very adept at both.

12. The Republicon War on Women

Beck is part of the Peckerhead Pack -- he moves the testosterone-riddled rhetoric down the field into the Foul ZONE, gets his trousers yanked & spanked. While that public-spectacle spanking is underway, the other RepubliPigs -- under occult cover -- execute the next move against women.

[_ed_]

15. This man is irrelevant

They had to run him in the UK commercial free because every one of his commercial sponsors backed out.

[niyad]

17. I am just listening to him saying that on LO--what an ignorant piece of scum he is.
