Glenn Beck: The Left Feels Sold Out By Obama. Is Violence Coming?
David Horowitz's NewsRealblog ^ | matthew Vadum

Posted on 12/23/2009 9:41:13 AM PST by Michael van der Galien

The left is starting to believe President Obama is a “poser,” Glenn Beck said on his TV show.

In their view, he has failed to achieve many of his campaign promises. He dropped the so-called public option from his healthcare legislation which is “the progressives’ ultimate prize.” Said Beck:

"As the concessions are being made and this bill gets stripped down, the only thing left is a mandate to buy insurance, a giant boon, they’ll say, to those evil big insurance companies. That’s not exactly what the left had in mind, not Democrats — the left, and they are coming out in force against it. Arianna Huffington daily calls Howard Dean — Howard Dean I just told you said the whole bill should be killed entirely, so what’s happening here?"

Obama has also failed to lift the ban on gays serving openly in the military. He hasn’t shut down the prison for Islamist terrorists in Guantanamo Bay. He is continuing a crackdown on illegal immigrants and he hasn’t pushed for a windfall profit tax on oil companies, Beck said.

Even far-left writer and conspiracy theorist Naomi Klein has turned on Obama, calling him more or less a corporate stooge.

Obama has got to get things done for the left or they will turn on him ferociously, Beck said.

Meanwhile, violent leftists in Europe are causing civil unrest, Beck noted. He played a segment from Neil Cavuto’s show in which global warming skeptic and filmmaker Phelim McAleer was being interviewed live from the climate conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. While McAleer spoke he was pelted with rotten vegetables thrown by eco-leftists.

In Europe, Beck said, “they have been trying to achieve their socialist utopia for decades. How is that working out for them?” Beck noted that rioters are burning cars in France

Assuming you have kids, would you let them bring a poisonous snake into the house, even if they’ve proven to be irresponsible in the past, and there was a prospect (no gaurentee, mind you) that you MIGHT be able to get rid of it in 4 years?

Well, the snake is very likely going to be slithering around, now that the 'Rats have managed to get 60 votes in the Senate. And you can bet Obama will sign whatever they end up passing, just so he can shake a stick at it.

We now have to figure out to starve it and chop its head off before the Sheeple have a chance to cuddle up to it.

Don’t you just hate it when he “puts on” that obviously phony Chicago black dialect?

Absent that control mechanism, they will attack the suburbs, en masse, in a vicious attempt to attain "equality", meaning big TVs, expensive electronic devices, and our daughters.

That'd be a really unhealthy move here in Texas.
