Beck is doing plenty on his own to stir up anti-Beck sentiment. I used to like the guy, but he’s become insufferable and a disgrace. If you turn on his radio show for even a few minutes, you’ll hear him and his sidekicks cheering Romney and trashing Newt. The Blaze homepage always has anti-Newt material front and center, but Romney’s horrible liberal record is ignored. He’s no longer able to take disagreement without reacting in a hysterical, almost womanish way; if you ask me, he’s turning back into the nasty person he says he used to be. And you can ask fellow Freeper Earthdweller about last week’s incident where he and the others ganged up on a Newt supporter, screaming at her and forcing her to hang up the phone.
Yes, Beck has done some good in the past, but he’s indefensible now. If stating these facts makes me a conspiracy participater in some folks’ eyes because I’ve been here for only a few months, then so be it. But if you think so, you might be one of the people Beck calls his “followers”, and that is something I am not going to be.
I listen to more than just a few minutes of his radio show every day. I go to work an hour early just so I can hear the first hour without distraction. I subscribe to GBTV and watch his internet broadcast almost every night.
I see and hear very little Romney cheering. If anything, Beck blasts Romney as being a big government Republican.
The only Republicans I've heard Beck speak admiringly of is Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry.
But even he had harsh things to say about some Perry's actions as Governor. He spoke admiringly of Herman Cain until all the Biden hit the fan on those sexual harrassment charges.
You can't really blame Beck if Romney and Gingrich are unable to defend/explain themselves.
In fact, if Gingrich COULD come up with explanations, he would hit a home run that would circle the globe and he would relegate Beck to the ash heap of history with one swat.
I'm still Team Gingrich. But I'm also Team Beck. I go both ways.
Wait. Let me rephrase that. Oh, crap. Did I already hit the "post" button?
