‘In short, I got that Beck thought it was a mistake to have killed the snake because of the ramifications.’—
That ain’t what ‘I got’ from it...
No. He had a marching band to celebrate yesterday.
Didn’t hear his show today. However, I am soooooooo sick of Americans acting like gutless wussies when it come to the Islamofascist.
Who gives a Rats behind if they are offended. No one seemed to be offended by the Islamofascist showing the beheading of Americans.
I could care less if Muslims are offended. I get offended when they murder Christians and Jews.
I think the ramifications might include a bunch of terrorists choosing early retirement.
I would rather have seen him paraded in chains down Fifth Avenue in New York City.
Isn’t Beck gone yet?
You can’t be afraid of ramifications.
You can only do what is right with a firm backbone.
Both the radio show and on TV, Glenn was wringing his hand over killing this filth because something bad might happen. I had to turn the TV show off after the first break because of it. Of course he through in the obligatory “I’m glad he’s dead.” but the whole tenor was what you cited. Glenn is way off base. I don’t recall any provocation for 911. They will attack any time they have the chance. Glenn’s constant panic routine is becoming more and more unfounded and tired.
He also said that Pasteurized milk is dangerous this morning. Stemming from a discussion on the Gov’t cracking down on raw milk sales, in the last 30 min of the show Stew and him got into it on whether Pasteurizing food was a good thing or not. Glenn hemmed and hawed around and then said he found it unsafe and implied that the FDA was dangerous to our health. When pushed on the assertion by Stu, Glenn said that he has done a lot of food research and knows what he is talking about. The research he has done is while involved with Don Imus’s bizarre cancer diet Glenn has been on for a couple months. The whole thing was very conspiratorial considering all the mocking of the Deathers today and his total trashing of the Birthers last week.
Another baseless and crackpot theory based on his limited knowledge of an issue.
I tuned in tonight and I think Beck’s cheese has slipped off the plate.
Beck was questioning this “debate” over releasing the photo...that it was either phony, or they were clueless. All this stuff about Pakistan should not have been a matter of debate, they’ve know about OBL since February.
That was not my take on Beck, even though his delivery/style on this subject (the righteous killing of Bin Laden) over the past two days has been confusing.
Beck Point 1
Beck today asked the audience to focus on the Obama Administration’s prepared response to Bin Laden’s death, given the fact that they (highly touted/paid Administration officials) have known for months (or at least weeks) that questions would be raised about Pakistan, the photos, conspiracy theories, etc.
Beck was criticizing the Obama Administration for being ill-prepared for the aftermath.
Beck Point 2
Beck then linked the ill-preparedness of the Administration (Pakistan relations, photos, etc.) to Beck’s recent overall concerns (domestic and international) that the Obama Administration is actively seeking to disrupt the US by creating situations that promote instability.
Beck hypothisyzed (sp) that the assassination of Bin Laden could lead to a nuclear attack by Islamic terrorists.
If that happened (Paris, London, Houston) it would help the Obama Administration and other socialists/communists, etc. to undermine the US. (I did not watch the whole Beck episode, I rarely do, but that’s the gist I got from the first 20-or-so minutes)
To sum up, I think you are wrong. Beck celebrated the killing of Bin Laden, but the point of his show has been to raise the alarm about actions taken by the Obama Administration (communists, socialists, etc.) to disrupt the US.
Beck was simply asking whether the way in which the Administration conducted the (IMHO fully justified) killing helped the US, or helped those who seek to undermine the US.
BTW, Muslims across the planet from Detroit to Indonesia to Iran To Iraq, etc. will have different reactions to OBL’s death. Wonderfull. I would release the pictures, because in the key area that matters (the Pakistan/Afghan border) their tradition was to put your enemy’s head on a pike as a warning.
I would respect their culture in that way. The NYT’s would not understand it, but our most active enemies would.
It might have been nice to take him alive, announce to the world he’s dead (so no rescue attempts or lawyers or diplomats trying save him or make a name for themselves)... sweat him for what little he knows and “then” drop him in the Indian Ocean somewhere.
He should have been killed only after his sex-change operation so that he could be buried in a pigskin burkha.
That would keep the Muslim nutjobs from idolizing that freak.
No, he did not.
