MSN & MSM Blame Beck For American's Financial Outlook
MSN Money ^ | 8/26/2010 | Karen A-ho

About Beck (or is it about Obama?)

"People get into trouble when they start taking advice from people who don't know what they're talking about ... You've got to separate politics from personal investing and finances."

KEYWORDS: beck; blame; economy; obama
Will the media blame Beck or Obama for the slow GDP growth?

Here’s what they are saying about both of these men...

He a teacher who enlightens and entertains. He cries about the political status-quo of DC. He worries about people protecting their wealth. He whines about an economy that is on the brink. He convinces people that their 401Ks are in danger. He leans heavily on conspiracy theory and religion. His ideas are as dangerous as his effects on people. He claims evil powers-that-be have hijacked capitalism. He is not a financial expert, but he gives money advice. He insists that purchasing basic needs has become difficult. He does not separate politics from investing and finances. He rallies the ignorant in a crazy world with a fireside voice. He talks of economic apocalypse, but in a soft reassuring tone. He admonishes people, preparing them from the worst. He peddles one Ponzi scheme after the next to protect us from an impending doomsday.

The MSM and Democrats will do and say anything to detract us from the obvious: the Progressives and Obama are experiencing a meltdown!

I was really upset when Beck took over GM and Chrysler and screwed their bondholders to protect the union... no, wait, Beck didn't have the power to do that... all he can do is talk.

Well, maybe the time Beck set up a government website we could use to report anyone who doubted him... no, he didn't to that either.

Ok A ho, I’ll yell so you can hear me. NO ONE BELIEVES THE MSM AND THE BUREAUCRATS IN D.C.

People listened to your idiotic ideas and guess what they are out of work, losing their homes and SOL. Oh that’s right your talking to your private club of movers and shakers on Wall Street.

So, we are supposed to listen to Imam Obama, Harry "Send a Prostitute to my Room" Reid, and Bella Pelosi instead?

Give me a break.

Speaking of our illustrious Speaker, I could not believe it when she survived what should have been a career ending scandal of biblical proportions, by claiming that the CIA lied to her.

Nancy Pelosi: CIA Lied To Me

But it was par for the course with the Left and these immoral thugs.

Basically, they could murder an infant on live TV, and nothing would happen to them.

Using this MSM pretzel logic, then we should be using the term Beckcare for the health care debacle!

I hope every conservative is watching their spending to help starve the beast.

Obama must be thrown out of office no matter what, and if we have to endure a little economic pain to make that happen then so be it.

Keep your money in your wallets conservatives, and we will destroy obama.

Hussein talked down a pretty good economy (before the immaculation) and now he's trying to talk up his economy that's in the crapper.

Since the rookie Hussein is in so far over his head, maybe it is someone else's fault.

His ideas are as dangerous as his effects on people.

Please. All this tells me is that Glenn Beck is TELLING THE TRUTH and the MSM and MSN is not!

I've always said that during bad economic times, pocketbook issues overrule everything else. The prospect of the ending of the 2003 tax cuts and possible additional tax increases to pay for health care reform and the "cap and trade" energy bill--all causing dire economic consequences--is why Democrats are running SCARED this election cycle, and the prospect of the biggest losses since the 1994 elections is very real, despite what the Democratic National Committee and their lackeys in the MSM say.

HEY, GLENN...did you know that you are to blame for the financial state of affairs in this country?

Well, Glenn, if that is true...then it is time for you to take a bunch of vacations. Will we see you ignoring the problems of the country by playing golf? How about running out and getting some ice cream, because that is obviously what you should be doing since you have caused so many economic problems in this country. Or..please, send your wife and kids to Spain...it is time you took advantage of the perks you should be enjoying for destroying this country.

And, please, please, do not go to a Christian church anymore. It simply is not PC of you, and you just might cause a disturbance. Don't worry about your faith, just call someone to come to your house and give you spiritual guidance. Of course, that means your wife and kids don't get any spiritual guidance from attending a church either. But, you should also find a bunch of Muslims and invite them to dinner and give them your blessing.

Oh, by the way, please stop doing your job at the office, and instead go running all over the country on the campaign trail. One or two appearance at gatherings or Tea Party rallies a year just is not enough. You need to get away more often, like every week, to go out and campaign for others, and cause huge traffic jams. And be sure that the people who attend your appearances give you heaps and heaps of money, too, especially on your birthday.

Oh, Glenn, you must act like you are the leader, you are in charge according to the MSM and MSN, you are "da man!"
