Glenn’s Labor Day weekend in NYC uncovers ugly hatred on American Airlines
Glenn Beck ^ | 9/4/12 | Glenn Beck

Posted on 09/04/2012 10:33:55 AM PDT by Nachum

GLENN: I want to spend some time giving you knowledge on, you’re close to winning. In fact, you’re so close to winning, the left and the uber left doesn’t even know how to deal with it, and they’re getting very, very angry. I’ve lived in New York for, what, five years? I’ve seen ‑‑ I’ve seen New York. I’ve seen the ugly side of New York, I’ve seen the good side of New York, but I have not seen what I have seen in the last weekend. In fact, my wife said she’s never going to New York again. It was ‑‑ it was quite amazing.

I want to tell you a little bit about my weekend and I want to personally thank American Airlines for bringing to my attention that they don’t mean “American Airlines.” They mean “liberal American Airlines” apparently. But let me start here. Do you remember when Clint Eastwood got up on stage and he said, “You know there’s a lot of ‑‑ there’s a lot of people in Hollywood. They just don’t make a big deal out of it.” Now why? I’ve spent a lot of time with a few people in Hollywood that are very big names, and they’ll tell you why. They don’t have five Oscars to their name. They don’t have Clint Eastwood’s reputation. They don’t have Jon Voight’s reputation where it’s Jon Voight. You want Jon Voight? You gotta take Jon Voight.

PAT: And you know what was interesting about Eastwood’s speech was that he only mentioned himself and Jon Voight.

GLENN: And Jon Voight. That’s it.

PAT: Because those are the two biggest.

GLENN: They don’t say it. Now why? Why? Because they know they’ll never work again. It’s blacklisting, and it’s wrong if you’re a suspected Communist

As an orthodox Jew with a big beard, I get mistreated by stewardesses on almost every other flight I take.

I kind of expect it now.

on all airlines? or just American?

Currently, a lapsed Catholic, I wore a long full beard from 1967 through 1996...I got strange reactions, good or bad wherever I traveled....but always reactions....

then it turned white and I did not want to be thought of as OLD(or Santa Claus)....so now it is gone. I miss it sometimes.

good luck.

Pretty much. Jet Blue was the last time. Stewardess was a little snippy. Most times, the people around me are fine, but the crew sometimes has an attitude. Delta was actually pleasant.

Generally, I just keep to myself and go with the flow.

Are you sure you aren’t just the last to know?

—Are you sure you aren’t just the last to know?—

I thought about it a couple of times, believe me.

However, when you are in PV in a separate room and the next morning you knock on his door and he answers rather secretively, but you get a glimpse of what’s inside, well, it’s sorta settled...though she had a strange resemblance to Liza Minnelli. ;-)

Saw an AP article trying to downplay it all, claiming his wife didn’t notice anything unusual.

FU AP!

I remember in the old days reading about how tough Israeli soldiers were, took their weapons home after discharge to expect to be on call to defend the country, etc.

Reminds me of how there are no “ex-marines”.... wonder if it’s still the same way with discharged Israeli soldiers.

Faux News took care of it already...

Look what they excreted:

“Beck said that even his wife, seated directly across the aisle, didn’t notice anything unusual.”
