In the wake of Glenn Beck's hugely successful Restoring Honor rally held in Washington, D.C. this weekend, the Huffington Post has published an offer of $100,000 to anyone with evidence that would destroy Beck's reputation and take him off the political/cultural battlefield.
An essay written by Beau Friedlander, the last editor-in-chief of Air America before it shut down this year, was posted in the Politics section of the Huffington Post today with the title, $100,000 For Glenn Beck's Sex Tape.
Friedlander says he will not use his own money for the hit, but that he will "broker" the deal.
It is time to pop the tea baggers' favorite balloon (so what if it will be replaced by another?), and with that in mind I hereby offer to negotiate a $100,000 payday to the person who will come forward with a sex tape or phone records or anything else that succeeds in removing Glenn Beck from the public eye forever. I am not offering the cash myself, but I will broker the deal and/or raise the money for what you bring to the table. (And it better be good.)
If you have the goods, or if you want to contribute to a slush fund to buy more takedowns (probably not tax deductible), please contact me at: glennbecksextape@gmail.com.
Friedlander couches his offer in the context of Andrew Breitbart's offer of $100,000 for the Journolist listserve messages, but this is more in line with pornographer Larry Flynt's blackmail campaign against Congressmen during Bill Clinton's impeachment, which followed a threat from Clinton conveyed by George Stephanopoulos to expose their sex lives.
Likewise, the Huffington Post has ties to the Obama White House, raising the question of whether the White House is behind this targeting of Beck.

I’ll give $500,000 if they give any found tapes to me so that I can destroy them.
Of course I don’t have $500,000 (or even $5000) but if you come up with a tape I’ll think of something....
“You can’t win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.”
Let's make it number 1 on google and yahoo!
The Oligarchy gets antsy when the peons and peasants start gettin’ uppity!!
“Extortion? Blackmail? Libel? Slander? Is there no category whereby one could say “Hey, in a civilized society, your actions are not acceptable.”?”
These are the Americans who would be ransacking your house and taking everything you have if they could successfully fashion a ‘Cultural Revolution’ like their hero Mao did.
"I don't have the money, but trust me."
If you have the goods, or if you want to contribute to a slush fund to buy more takedowns (probably not tax deductible), please contact me at: glennbecksextape@gmail.com.
"Please send money. Like I said, you can trust me."
Who wouldn't jump at these offers?
If they are so desperate to behave in this way, WE WON. Congratulations Mr. Beck you have successfully begun the effort to take our Country back. Libs love control and they are losing it to the people.
Just remember that Arianna Huffington once claimed to be a conservative Republican, then turned on a dime to join the left. She is an opportunist who will sell herself to the highest bidder; she can’t be trusted.
...with photoshopped images of "Beck" in compromising positions...make 'em chase their pathetic tails for a while.
They would murder Glen’s family if only they felt that they could get away with it.
I know a lot of people won’t agree with me. But as for me, from now on, when a person is a hard-hitting effective fighter on our side, i will not stop supporting his ideas because of leftist blackmail of their personal sexual or drinking habits.
Beck’s ideas are terrifying the left. Nothing Beck does sexually can change his ideas. We are idiots if we let the left pick the battlefield. The battlefield is the discussion of restorig the constitution, not Becks sex life.
The old tactics of the left will no longer work.
Kind of obvious that George Soros or someone like him will be supplying the cash.
“...or anything else that succeeds in removing Glenn Beck from the public eye forever...”
I guess you have to wait til forever ends to collect the $100,000.
Sure the have money. A phone call to Soros, Streisand, Redford, Begley, Evans or any one of a long list of rich depraved leftists and they will have that fund in a second. There’s always Obama’s stash, too.
The quintessential liberal. He's offering $100,000 OF SOMEONE ELSE'S MONEY for incriminating information.

I disagree.
I'm tired of having conservatives play by gentleman's rules while the left does anything they want.
Bring it on!
