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

Disgusting treatment. Don’t care who ya’ are.

There’s speculation of who the restaurant is.

Did Memphis’ Neelys Diss Glenn Beck?

His flight on American Airlines was worse than the restaurant

A pertinent excerpt: "On the way home I flew American Airlines, a Texas‑based airline. I, unlike all of the other passengers, was not offered the option of courteous service. I don’t know why. Did I have to pay more than I paid for my tickets? Is that something that you have to select now you? My flight attendant nearly ‑‑ merely barked the word “breakfast” when ***he*** came to me. When others were politely asked if they cared for anything to eat and given the choices, I was just barked at. When he delivered a soda, he slammed it down so hard, I hesitated to even open the can for fear that it would spray all over other passengers in the cabin. By the way, the other passengers, nobody else had to open their can. He opened it and poured it for them. Never once did he look me in the eye. Never once did he offer a kind or even a neutral word to me. I had service unlike I have never had ever before in my life, and I have had rude service before. I lived in New York City. I have never had service that was specifically designed to make me feel subhuman. Oh, I had it. He put on quite a show as he fawned over the other passengers proudly and loudly performing his life story about being a former Israeli soldier and how he was so proud of the very liberal cities in America."

This is about an employee (hostile homosexual), not an airline.

The very worst thing for American Airlines right now would be for those of a conservative viewpoint to book other airlines.

American has too many problems to be picky about who they insult.

It certainly was. My guess.....the ‘steward’ was a rump ranger.

That employee represents the airline.

In the same way, I would fire him. Being rude to a customer is unacceptable.

My employee represents me. If my employee is insulting, how long do you think I can stay competitive.

Chikfila serves all customers courteously according to Dan Cathy. American Airlines should too.

>>I’m tired of being treated as a criminal, a disease, mentally challenged, stupid, or subhuman just because I happen to believe that the founders weren’t racists, that the Constitution was and still is inspired and the greatest document for government ever created, that the military is not full of a bunch of baby‑killers, or that we shouldn’t spend the money that we don’t have, or that we should stick up for the little guy, the small business owner, that the corrupt businessman should go to jail and that capitalism is still the best system to lift people out of poverty.<<

Glenn's awful treatment merely reflects what the so called progressives have done to our society. A republic cannot stand this and remain free.

Sad (and shocking) that a former Israeli soldier - now flight attendant - would be an abrasive, unabashed liberal.

Is this Glenn's first venture outside of his Mercury studios or a stadium full of adoring fans?

Welcome to Obamaville, Glenn!

Hahaha! The flight attendant was a “he”. Odds are he was homosexual. My brother has been a flight attendant for 25 years and is NOT homosexual and is single. This means two things. He is rare, and he is a fox in the “hen” house.

He was careful not to say. It would be interesting to note. I keep kosher, so it doesn't matter much to me personally, but nobody wants to be treated like Beck was.

New York City is lib-central. A person has to be careful with their opinions there.

My guess is that he’s lying his ass off about being IDF.

American Airlines
July 1968 ... after 13 months in VN, I got on an AA plane (in my MC uniform) in SF, headed for Chicago.
For four hours I was essentially ignored and requests for food, beer, water, etc., were met with "when I get time."
For the next 35 years in business, I flew around America probably 100 times ... NEVER on an AA plane.

TO LATE. Unless of course they issue a very public announcement they have FIRED this jerkoff, I will in the future book around the airline to bypass them.

EVEN if it costs more.

Glenn wouldn’t just come out and say he ran in to gay hate though.

Well, don’t bother with Alaska Airlines. They are THE homosexual airline:

http://www.alaskaair.com/content/gay-travel.aspx

You can’t get there from the normal Alaska Airlines web site. You have to know about it. They sometimes offer deals there that are better than for the rest of their customers. It’s a secret a lot of normal people use.
