Glenn Beck Likens Obama To Heroin Pusher
Glenn "I'm not going to share my toys" Beck is at it again, hammering away at Obama's sensitivity and charity toward the plight of suffering people in this country. On Beck's February 11th broadcast, he spent much of the time mocking the people at the town hall meetings who were emotional in their thanks to President Obama for his dedication and support of them in some pretty rough times. Beck rolled out the name-calling, starting with the oh-so-stale "Marxist" and "socialist," and going on to call Obama a . . . heroin dealer?

Yup, Beck equates Obama's stimulus and heightened assistance to the poor, unemployed, homeless, generally the downtrodden that Americans - since this country began - have helped get a leg up, to getting people all "strung out" on, okay, not really heroin, but big government, which in Beck's view is the same difference.

Citing the movie "Taken," (two young girls kidnapped into a prostitution ring where they use heroin addiction as the big equalizer) he ranted that Obama is hooking people on governmental help (oh, horrors) to make them easier to manage, you know, when he rolls out his Marxist platform and starts putting anti-socialist thinkers into detention camps and jail.

Beck had nothing but scorn for the guy who, after working at McDonald's for four years, just wanted some health care - how dare he! - and former drug addict, Jack Daniels guzzling Glenn's advice to this kid was to keep working, keep going to school, and "the benefits are the benefits." This from a guy who reportedly admitted that he spent more time in the parking lot than in school.

2. One must ask what drugs Beck is doing
This wacko is pushing the outer limits of stupidity.

Cobert did a fine job showing his idiocy last week.

31. One is always an alcoholic or drug user, reformed or not.
Its a lifelong disease. My Grandfather was an alcoholic and had to fight not to drink his entire life.

5. ccharles000, you always post the worst stories. Don't get me wrong...
...I really appreciate you wallowing through the muck to bring this stuff to our attention (the "hate crime" letter from the church shooter sent shivers through my spine). It's not pretty, but we should know it's out there.

But I worry about you wading through all of this negativity. I hope that reading all this stuff doesn't depress you. It would me. Take care of yourself.

:hug:

7. All Beck and his kind have left
is their hyperbole.

It must irk them no end that Obama is popular and people trust him.

I've watched his show on occasion and find his bloviating boring.

Considering his heroes, the Bush Crime Family, are the biggest heroin dealers in the history of humankind. (Or chimpkind, in George Jr's case)

23. Glenn Beck wasn't smart enough to go to college... he's not even a college dropout like...
...Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh.

Those guys at least made it past freshman year before getting kicked out.

24. There is an instrument known to science
...as the Electron Microscope.

With this wonder of technology, scientists are able to view INDIVIDUAL MOLECULES - almost the basic buidling blocks of the universe.

And if I had one of these technological marvels with me this very instant...

I would STILL be unable to detect Glenn Beck's brain.

(Thank you, Frasier Crane...)

25. I remember listening to him on local Houston AM radio...
I didn't have Sirius or any real options at the time so I endured... anyway, the man is in-SAAANE. Seriously, he's mental. He has some serious issues. I remember him basically therapizing on the air about his mother or someone and it was really, REALLY awkward.

He should be on meds and off the air. O_o

28. Glenn Beck has a kind of
strange weirdness about him. Strange enough to contemplate just what kind of unfortunate series of events led to such weirdness. Like maybe his grandfather is his father. Then he was kept in a dark bedroom for his entire early childhood and only given cat food or green beans to eat. Then when he was a little older he was raped by all the members of this weird family. Maybe they felt guilty about the rapes so they administered some heavy drugs, mostly meth and cheap whiskey. Soon after that he started to attend school. In school he was picked on unmercifully because of his unrelenting weirdness. Only speculation, you know.

29. Who let the dog (Beck) out? It was FOX! Fox is allowing Beck to spew a lot of trash lately!
Edited on Tue Feb-17-09 07:26 AM by 1776Forever
I admit I am a talk radio junkie and listen to many different shows just to check out what the "other" side is talking about. I have heard Beck talk about revolution on his radio show many times. People are calling up and worshiping at his feet and saying things like "How can you be so brave?". A lot of DUers don't want to talk about it but is dangerous talk to me. I see it right up there or beyond Hannity and Savage and how they have influenced hundreds to acts of hatred and crime against Dem's and others who are open minded people like churches who encourage gay parishioners. It is scary!
