Wall Street Journal: "Glenn Beck Counts For More At the Obama White House" Than the Progressive Movement (The Huffington Post can only be linked to)

The left is very angry about what they see as Obama's betrayal.

> our stance on major issues like the public option, climate change, Wall Street reform and the war are the majoritarian positions in America
>>What polls are these people reading?

My guess is they sort
demographics by age and
by earning power.

It's like they're saying
among the Seinfeld viewers
they are polling high.

[Liberty Valance]

Are “movement progressive” code words for commie?

[The Comedian]

That's not speculation -- polls show that's an empirical fact.

What polls are these people reading?

Just sent this email to Keith Olbergirl (actually, it's OlberMANN -- strange name for a WUSSIE!)

Suggest we all send Keith a message a day containing dirt on Glenn Beck. Let's shut down their email system!

Keith,

I have it from someone in a position to know that Glenn Beck is a raging numismatist with tendencies to philatelism. That should disgust any responsible person.

I hope you will devote at least as much air to this as you did the Van Jones story.

Your viewers -- both of them -- would probably find it highly informative.

[nufsed]

Who will read it to him?

[maine-iac7]

Where’s Glenn Beck tonight???/

[Dick Bachert]

He keeps one conservative on his staff for just that purpose.

I believe he has one other job: He changes Keith’s DROOL CUP and DEPENDS each night before the show.

Nice work potlatch

You have nailed the ex-con Commie, the slippery Joker, and the sleeper Iranian.....

Obama is throwing this radical progressive under the bus because the American people oppose the radicals.

-—<>-—<>-—<>-—<>-—<>-—

I could not disagree with you more.

Obama throws ANYONE under the bus if they begin to reveal to people who that he is a radical and that is who he associates with. Rev.Wright, Ayres, Jones are only three examples. They are representative of the people Dear Leader has been associating with all his life, in ACORN and all the rest of his radical associations. He is continuing to hide the person he is this way, just as he has been able to do by hiding all documentation of his past such as grades, birth certificate, etc. There will be many more of these slime balls who come to light.

Thank you devolve. I’ve been in a ‘working’ frenzy.

There are legitimate, left-wing activists who actually do help ex-cons, the poor, and the downtrodden accomplish things. Van Jones was not one of those people. Van Jones is to effective left-wing activists what Bernie Madoff was to Certified Financial Planners.

I think you have confused "left wing" with "compassionate" or maybe "charitable". The goal of a "left wing activist" is not to make the ex-cons, the poor, and the downtrodden into middle class success stories, but to use them to get into power. The worse the situation for these folks, the bigger the crisis can be made, the better the left wing activist.

You can be left wing, and find jobs for ex-cons. But charitable activities such as finding jobs for ex-cons doesn't belong exclusively to the the left.

Being charitable is not the same thing as being an Alinskyite Left Wing Activist/Community organizer. Van Jones was a success at the later.

I think you have confused "left wing" with "compassionate" or maybe "charitable".

Agree. I meant people of a left wing political philosophy who also do charitable work.

Being charitable is not the same thing as being an Alinskyite Left Wing Activist/Community organizer. Van Jones was a success at the later.

Actually, I will disagree to a point here. Some Alinskyite community organizers have effected change. Change we may not believe in, but change none the less. Jones has accomplished nothing. Absolutely nothing. He is all talk. All hat no cattle. A poser.

Show me one solar panel in California installed by an ex-con as a result of Jones' project? What a complete fraud. These ex-cons could have used help to find real jobs then, not mythical "green jobs" years in the future.

But, Jones' "Green Jobs for ex-Cons" fraud got Jones into the chardonnay and croissant circle in California.

“...left-wing activists who actually do help ex-cons, the poor, and the downtrodden accomplish things>>>”

The one’s who reach out and help the poor and downtrodden I have known over the years have been conservatives. And, they keep an eye out for those who fall between the cracks - the one's whom the system fails.

David Sirota is on Twitter. He is one angry man.

You can see that in the negotiations over health care and climate change. You can see that in the plans to escalate the war in Afghanistan at the urging of people like Karl Rove, and the refusal to stop Wall Street bailouts and push real Wall Street reform. You can see that even in who the president opts to give exclusive interviews to. You can, in short, see it everywhere.

The sky is always falling for liberals.

Watch how much time they waste on Beck Derangement Syndrome.

[jessduntno]

“Watch how much time they waste on Beck Derangement Syndrome.”

At least they don’t have to give up BDS, now they cand just plug in Beck instead of Bush...

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Good call.
Maybe Beck could have Bush on for an interview just to make them go nuts
and jack the ratings wars up a notch?
In fact, he should invite Bush AND Rush on at the same time.

[jessduntno]

How about this reunion?
