1. as he should be, i smiled when i saw him as Worst tonight.

love me some Keith.

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Because...?

[YellowRubberDuckie]

3. Probably because of his fear mongering Muslim roasting special tonight.

Apparently All Muslims are out to get us. His show was full of bullshit that was said by the Iranian president. It's funny though. The things he said mirrored those that were said by BUSH! :wow:

9. Heh

[INDIA]

10. As poorly as it was framed by Beck...

And sensationalist to boot, the footage he dug up was pretty scary, you have to admit. We don't get to see Arab media very often in the west, and from what I've seen, it's pretty screwed up.

Jews did this, Jews did that. Death to the Great Satan, yadda yadda yadda.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

11. BUT...

The people who translate this stuff have huge agendas. How do we know if that is really what they're saying?!

[INDIA]

13. I was thinking that too...

But really, how easy would that be to debunk? There are hundreds of thousands of muslims around the world who probably watched that program, many of whom speak Arabic or Farsi.(I think it was on CNN international as well.) I'm pretty sure that someone would speak up and dispute the translation if it was indeed falsified.

Also, from what he said, this show took months to get on air. I have a feeling CNN wouldn't risk their journalistic integrity over this unless they verified all the translations on it.

After Stephen Glass, Jeff Gannon, 60 minutes etc., jounalists and networks know what is at stake whenever they run a program or story that hasn't been verified. Ask Mary Mapes. The info behind her documents is probably true, but she didn't verify and now she is ruined. Not to mention it took a valuable attack issue away from us in '04.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

16. That's true.

Beck DID have a guy from this group called Muslim Thinkers ( I think ) on the radio program today and Beck was quoting him and the guy made an idiot out of himself. Their hatred of the Jewish people is completely insane. The guy kept saying something about mushroom clouds and how they were going to give their life and blood to wiping out Israel. Beck asked him what he meant by that, and he kept dancing. He really made an idiot out of himself. It's kinda sad, really, but it was his own fault.

18. Sounds like the Repugs talking about the Dems. n/t

[AlCzervik]

14. Glenn Beck also referred to Iran media as "Arab media" so please

think about the source.

[tridim]

4. Because he thinks Muslim Democratic Congressmen are "Working with the enemy".

[muntrv]

5. A newly elected congressman from Minnesota is a Dem and Muslim.

Beck asked him directly if he's working for the enemy.

[AlCzervik]

6. because he interviewed Keith Ellsion, the 1st muslim elected to congress

and Beck said something like "I just don't know if you're working with out enemies ot not" or something close to that.

[KamaAina]

7. Long overdue, if you ask me.

Beck is gutter slime.

Now let's see if we can make it a "twofer" by getting him in Top Ten. (Is there some other honor out there that would make it a "trifecta"?)

[mattfromnossa]

8. He gives me nausea.

[Berry Cool]

12. He essentially said "You're a Muslim, and you're a Democrat...

...so how do we know you're not working for the enemy?"

Disgusting.

[newyawker99]

20. Hi mattfromnossa!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[Minnesota_Lib]

15. Yes, because Beck asked my newly elected congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN)...

..to prove he was not working with the terrorists or some such nonsense. Ellison is the first practicing Muslim to ever be elected to congress. Beck is a bigoted, hate-mongering asshat.

[hasssan1]

17. He is a right wing Fuck. Also he is a Money Whore as well.

[stevedeshazer]

19. He gets my vote

Heard him sucking up to Limbaugh today.
