BOR bashed Free Republic as a ‘hate site’ picking and choosing
posts that were planted by DUmmies to prove his point, while browbeating and shouting out Kristinn.
I’ve boycotted him ever since as much as I can, but my husband likes him and catches his show once in awhile.
You praise Beck - then slam him. Psychological studies show that people will remember the slam and forget the praise. Did you know that? It seems to be a pattern.
And that, is the reason my flag with fifty stars is coming down and being replaced with the original 13 stars flag (Betsy Ross Flag)which I obtained from Williamsburg, VA. We need a new beginning.
A pattern? A pattern with me or in general?
I didn’t slam Glenn- I stated what I perceive to be the truth. He is- as are we all- a mixed bag. He has flaws and quirks- so do I. Apparently one of yours is pointing out those of others.
Yeah, but IMO this is a very big reason that the "American, God-Loving people" are hated so and why those who oppose us so much seek constantly to destroy us.
To be fair, O’Reilly went to Harvard back when it actually meant something to go to Harvard. He worked for admittance all by himself, his family wasn’t rich. He worked at Carvel and painting houses to afford the tuition. So O’Reilly does have a good sense of who he is, even though he isn’t as conservative as Glenn Beck he doesn’t have to be. It’s good to have a balance on a station — otherwise you’d end up like PMSNBC.
He had a bit on Valentine's Day that was the funniest thing I ever heard. He would be in cahoots with a husband. He would find out all the wife's favorite things (restaurants etc.) and he would call the wife and say the husband had called in and wanted Beck to call her and say the husband had called Beck and wanted Beck to tell her how much he loved her etc. and Beck would say they were sending them to her favorite restaurant because the husband was so loving to his wife yada yada yads./......it was absolutely hysterical. I've often wondered if the wife had a sense of humor after the put on.
Beck has a great show. But, I do wonder about one thing he does fairly regularly -- cry on the air. Are the tears always real? He comes off as a combination of Morton Downey Jr. and Tammy Faye Bakker sometimes when he does it.
Two more books to add to my READ IT CONGRESS agenda.
The Constitution and The Federalist Papers MUST be read by all CongressCritters so that they know what it is they’re supposed to be upholding and defending.
Anyone who wants to be added to the Glenn Beck tv ping list, please let me know!
Glenn Beck is GENUINE. A few tears don’t bother me one bit. I never miss him unless I forget to record the show. That’s not often. CO
The 5000 year Leap is great. I got it, and the video course, and started watching it with my kids during the election last fall.
Remember Bobo?
I remember Beck doing that! I listen to him on WOWO, Fort Wayne, IN. I like “Moron Trivia” (remember that)
I read it about 4 months ago on Glenn’s recommendation. Very good at explaining the principles of freedom our country should be working under.
I thin passed it on to my husband who then passed it on to my father. It is now on the bookshelf waiting for our next pass.
Read it, then move it on everyone!
Such a good post, I had to re-post it...and add alittle umph ;-)
Don’t remember that one off the top of my head.
I understand and loyalty is great, too, but it was a lib guest...Kristin, I think, who threw FR in his face and he was embarrassed because he didn’t even know about us.
While you are right, he was critical of FR, he at least allowed a rep of FR to come on his show and defend the site.
He has since defended FR as being nowhere near as bad as the Kos, etc.
So, while BOR has (surprise) an ego, he uses his position for good and because of him, many, many children might not be sexually molested, and a few more molesters might be in jail.
And there isn’t anyone else who has had the nads (symptomatic of having an ego, perhaps?) to get in Chris Dodd’s and Barney Frank’s face.
But....he did trash FR so screw it...hate him forever.
