What is Glenn Beck's big story? He has something big.
U4prez ^ | 9/9/2009 | me

Posted on 09/09/2009 2:41:49 PM PDT by rrdog

Something big is brewing over at Foxnews. Glenn Beck has been foreshadowing a big story all week. Tonight he really pushed the envelope suggesting that it is so big, we won't be talking about health care reform tomorrow. This is bold. President Obama is addressing a joint session of congress tonight on the issue of health care. For Beck to suggest it won't even be the big topic tomorrow indicates he is sitting on a mighty big story.

LOL! Yeah it is answer “c” — who the h*ll knew? LOL!

I hope it is B.

I think the ice is melting and the BC is going to break even more.

Obama is becoming a liability to the Democrat Party.

According to the Cook County Assessor’s website, the Chicago home of four-term Democrat Congressman and likely new White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, doesn’t exist...there seems to be no public record of Emanuel ever paying property taxes on this home.

According to the Cook County Assessor’s website, the Chicago home of four-term Democrat Congressman and likely new White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, doesn’t exist. While the address of 4228 North Hermitage is listed as Emanuel’s residence on the Illinois State Board of Elections’ website, there seems to be no public record of Emanuel ever paying property taxes on this home.

The Cook County Assessor’s and Cook County Treasurer’s online records indicate Emanuel’s Chicago neighbors pay between $3,500 and $7,000 annually. However, Illinois Review has been unable to locate any evidence that the former Clinton advisor and investment banker is paying his fair share of Cook County’s notoriously high tax burden.

Why wouldn’t 4228 North Hermitage property owners Rahm Emanuel and wife Amy Rule pay property taxes?

One reason may be because Emanuel and Rule declared their 4228 North Hermitage home as the office location for their personal non-profit foundation called the “Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Foundation”. As the non-profit’s headquarters, their home could be exempt from paying property taxes.

In January 2007, USA Today reported on Emanuel’s foundation:

The Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Trust was formed in 2002, when the Chicago lawmaker was first elected. The former Clinton White House aide and his wife, Amy Rule, are its only donors. Emanuel was an investment banker after serving in the White House.

The trust reported having $2,900 on hand at the end of 2005 after receiving $34,000 from Emanuel and donating more than $31,000.

During the past three years, Emanuel’s charity gave nearly $25,000 to the Anshe Emet synagogue and school [a private school that the Rahm/Rule children attend]..., and $15,000 to the foundation run by former president Bill Clinton. It also gave $14,000 to Marwen, a Chicago charity that provides art classes and other educational help to low-income children. Rule is on Marwen’s board.

Emanuel’s 4228 North Hermitage home is one of the largest in the neighborhood, with a side yard that appears to be a vacant lot, making the Emanuels’ property the largest portion on the block.

Other North Hermitage homes on Emanuel’s block are valued in the $500,000 plus range. According to Cook County Treasurer’s website, the Chicago owners of nearby 118 year old 4222 North Hermitage pay almost $6800 annually. The family at 4224 North Heritage pays $6000 each year in property taxes.

President Elect Obama - himself a connected, Chicago insider who has benefited from questionable land deals - may find it difficult to explain why his very own Chicago-based chief of staff doesn’t pay property taxes like the “little guy” he claims to represent. Or perhaps allowing his wealthy friends to avoid taxes is part of Obama’s trickle down redistribution economics. It’s certainly the kind of “change” we Illinoisans can believe in...since we’re quite familiar with it here in the federal indictment land of Daley, Blagojevich, Madigan, Jones, Cellini, Rezko, etc., etc.

It's just an opinion.

Fair enough. So's mine.

I get the feeling this is something current. Maybe not an EX dealer or whatever profession this person is.

Just before he brought this up, he was again talking about the threats to himself and his family.

Maybe the tape that Beck showed as a teaser today links Sunstein with call girls.

Given Sunstein’s current proposal, removing organs without explicit consent that would probably be a step up.

However, if the Senate already approved Sunstein given his reputation, there’s little one could do to damage it any further.

Wouldn’t that be hilarious. I’d love to see Barney’s Frank thrown out of office.

I have a feeling it’s something to do with Acorn, though. Still a good thing if that organization can be brought down.

The few times I’ve watched him, including the tea party at the alamo segment, left me with a different impression. He doesn’t seem to be afraid to speak the truth, his mind, and appears to have clout..more so than bill o’reilly did during the clinton years. I quit watching all the talking heads because of numerous reasons. I don’t like getting wrapped up in hype... But in beck’s case, he seems pro-active.. Not seeing a problem yet..but have just started reocrding his shows this week, so I’m hoping to develop a more educated opinion.

someone posted on a BC thread yesterday that one of Glenn’s producers were at the trial. No clue as to whether it’s true or not....just thought I’d mention it.

Anyone have more on that?

Maybe he has a tape of “Mack Daddy the Zebra” actually telling the truth.

Of course, Bozo would have had to have told the truth at least once in his life for it to be captured on tape. Not likely.

Here’s a completely wild-a$$ed guess; one of the Emmanuel brothers, Rahm or Zeke, gets outed by Blago with tape to prove it.

Aw, I'm sorry, Bob. That's all the time we have for today's show.

Tune in tomorrow for "As The Worm Turns" to see if Bob's right!

Glenn said he’s been working this story for months. What was touched on briefly about four months ago that looked ominous but did not get any further reporting back then? It was before czars were even on Beck’s radar, so perhaps it is something to do with Rahm and or Blago. But the teaser video this evening featured a female Beck was inferring was a prostitute or madame. Perhaps Beck is about to out a blacmail ring ????

Maybe not so wild. Blago was on Greta yesterday saying that his legal team now had possession of all the tapes. Greta was trying to get him to get his legal team to petition the courts to lift the ban on reporting about the contents of the tapes. Blago said that the media already tried to get the ban lifted. Greta said it is different if it comes from him.

You know he did a lot of talking about service, 9/11 being taken away from the people and re-instituted as a day of service, and how 9/12 was really the day our Country called us as citizens to service. He emphasized crossing the political spectrum.

Could this be so big as to cross three presidencies?
