Listen to the video on his site. He goes a lot further than that, with baseless comparisons and liberal sliming of Russia, not just the guy who said that, who was only an actor.
Putin isn’t going to put gays into ovens. He wants to protect children from homosexual propaganda. Not quite the same thing, is it?
Why take on Russia?
I mean, shouldnt he evaluate which countries in the world have the all time toughest laws against homosexuality and promote them from the top?
Not my problem. I'm concerned about the serious, official persecution here.
Just commented on Beck and this issue a few days ago. I used to listen to Beck’s radio show quite frequently. Even drove four hours and paid good money to see him give a speech/presentation in Tyler, TX a few years ago. But the moment, over a year ago, when Beck started expressing how he was fine with homo marriage, I turned him off and hadn’t listened to him a single minute ever since.
... Until today. I was in my car, waiting for a relative who was at a doctor’s visit, and turned on the car-radio. I listened to about five minutes of him blathering on about “loving” everyone, and how he’d continue to stand with GLAAD versus some unknown Russian actor... making a big deal about all that while basically saying the Duck Dynasty flare-up was a big nothing, with Beck blathering on in his sloppy, emotional ‘kumbaya’ mode. Couldn’t stomach it, and turned it off after about five minutes.
Man, I just can’t take Beck at ALL anymore. He can go ahead and stand with the perverts of GLAAD all he wants. The very type of scumbags who’ve helped turn America into such a deviant sewer. I’m far more impressed with Putin and his actions, demonstrating he’s interested in the survival of his country and its culture. He sees America rotting and decaying towards oblivion, and obviously doesn’t want his country to share the same fate.
Yes, and I can just see a point where Glenn become the RINOS he bemoans, and begins thinking Rob Portman is a man of virtue.
Newt screwed up bigtime. Newt can no be trusted. His sail follows the wind. Scozzafava was his.
This is why we get shitty candidates. Holding a stupid meaningless decision like Scozzafava against our best standard bearers. You don’t see the left holding Benghazi, Whitewater, or Hillarycare against their front runner. Now Romneycare... That’s something to hold against somebody. Sitting on a couch with pelosi? Not so much.
I agree. I used to like listening to his show. Now, I haven’t got a clue about which direction he’s coming from or which direction he’s going.
Well, Charlie Manson is for clean air and water.
That don’t mean I’m gonna stand with him.
Glenn should get fitted for a pair of water skis.
I only heard his response to statements made by some Russian actor.
If you could seriously have asked that question forty or fifty or sixty or seventy years ago, it would have meant there was something seriously wrong with libertarians (or maybe with you?).
If it was right for Americans concerned about liberty to speak up against foreign governments that they felt infringed on the rights of their citizens then, can it be wrong today?
I'm not saying Beck is right to take the side he takes on this. I really couldn't care one way or the other. To my view, the Russian government didn't go too far.
But if being a libertarian means taking a blind eye to what you think to be violations of rights overseas -- if libertarian liberty stops at the water's edge -- than maybe something is wrong with libertarianism.
There’s no excuse for knocking Russia for protecting it’s children.
> he continues his crusade to support GLAAD... he also has written a heartfelt letter of understanding to none other than MSNBC’s resident corn-rowed doofus, Melissa Harris-Perry
We tolerate him because any day now he’s going to blow the lid off the secrets which will take down the Obama regime brick by brick. /s Thanks Viennacon.
“persecution of homosexuals”
Not yet, but if they keep pushing their luck...
Don’t forget he always considered Jon Huntsman’s billionaire father a brilliant man. I saw the old toad on with Cavuto back about the time of Cruz’s filibuster, and he was just egregious on the tea party. So, Huntsman gives Beck a wad of bucks to keep his head above water, but hands him the script.
There is serious, official persecution of drug use going on in Russia. Do you approve?
I wrote Beck off as a nutjob way back when he was on Fox and kept pushing this narrative about how the Muslim version of the Messiah was going to unite the entire Islamic world against the west and it was going to happen within months resulting in a World War..
There was some lawmaker in Russia who said they should put them in ovens. Beck was just saying that's wrong.
