Mark Levin's problem with Glenn Beck ( Beck is correct about mccain )
The Week ^ | September 25th

Posted on 09/26/2009 3:11:14 PM PDT by Halfmanhalfamazing

By saying that Republican John McCain would have been a worse president than Barack Obama............

(I have no use for the rest of this website's drivel. I just want the substance of what Beck said)

I watch his program every night and he has not been pushing third party... he just says he is pissed at both parties and, frankly who isn't?? He also says he is a conservative libertarian leaning person...

I don't have to like his politics to think what he is delivering is important and needs to be out there.. Mark should be spending more time talking about Cass Sunstein and less about Glenn Beck, Keith Olbermann or David Frum... and BTW I never, ever hear Glenn trash any other commentators.

You said... he used the material from his book and represented it as his own, then it is stealing

What did you mean then. Either you are saying he stole levins material or he didnt...in which case you have no argument. Which is it?

To keep Mark off plugging his book, not to get his own show!

When Jon Voight wa on Beck, he said without warning, “Mark Levin’s book is wonderful” (or something like that) and Beck says quietly, “yeah, i heard”.

Clearly, his book doesn’t need plugging, but that’s not the point.

Really though, if what Mark took as quotes from his book, were actually common knowledge with a bit of research, then it really isn’t a quote from his book. It’s a quote from an identical source.

If someone stated a fact that I found in an AP article, I don’t need credit. If that person quoted my editorial about the fact, then I deserve credit.

It would have to be Mark’s editorial and not the referenced facts.

But Sean chooses his guests and Mark is on there pretty often which is why Mark should never have said it unless he has something for everyone to see that will back that up. I lean more to maybe he thinks they conspired not to have him on their shows when his book came out.

The few times Levin has been on with Sean, he does it from his home. He has been through several Heart sergeries and hospitalizations, he does his radio program and wouldn’t be able to travel to D.C. daily.

The idea of a program on FOX is moot

I saw the Jon Voight on Beck comment, that wasn’t anything nasty and did Mark have Glenn on to discuss HIS book? Of course not, so what made Mark think Glenn would have him on his show and I imagine Mark never had BOR on for any of his books, either and vis-versa... if that is what Mark is teed off over it only goes to make him look even more petty...

I’ve been doing a lot of traveling, at least for me, and haven’t been able to get my tivo fixed.

But when I do, I’m going to make it my mission to keep track of this.

It really pisses me off when people steal. Now it could be that producers are “writing” his material, scripts for the show, and that’s where the “confusion” comes in. But now he has a chance to stop.

After all, marxists steal, conservatives produce.

You can’t judge the impact of the shows by the FR threads.

I’m a regular on the Beck thread. It’s a lot of fun and much of the discussion is not specifically about Beck’s show but the country in general.

I did a short time on the Levin thread and didn’t find it very welcoming. It could be the FReepers and not the shows themselves.

Yeah, but if you can’t give an actual reference, calling Beck a Marxist doesn’t help much either.

I think what HC posted above is closer to what he is upset about — that Glenn or BOR didn’t have him on their shows to push his book, but then I don’t think he ever has them on his show when they write a book... I think, especially with his heart, he needs to chill out a bit and do what he does, he has an audience and is brilliant on the courts and law, that is his expertise and given what Obama is doing right now we need people like Mark to use their expertise to fight this and not fight other conservatives who are doing their own best to fight this madness.

You can always look at the archived shows.
I know there is a list of where to find them on the Beck FR thread. I don’t have cable and watch TikiLive on their direction.

Which book was Mark supposed to have Beck on for the one riding on the back of Thomas Paine’s work?

I never said Beck remark was nasty, did I?

I was definitely abrupt and I thought very funny.

Gee when Acorn steals my house and I complain about it, I guess I’ll just be petty.

Come on, you like Beck. That’s fine. I always did as well. I also like Mark
We disagree on the way Mark handled the situation, that is also fine.
When Beck does it again, and I believe he will, I will make specific note of it. I’m certain, Mark will as well. He’s not gonna let it go if it doesn’t stop!

Where are they archived. I’d love to!

This’ll be fun!

I love a good research project!

Well, people didn't revolt against Bill Clinton. Of course, the Republican Congress helped there. The apathy and ignorance of the masses though are very troubling.

When you have most 18 to 25 year olds proclaiming their love for Che Guevara and other Marxists and actually asking "What's so bad about communism--we don't have another 4 years to passively sit back as the public indoctrinating schools are cranking out millions more of these idiots for the voting booths.

Add that together with all the more government jobs, and illegals given the right to vote and there won't be a chance to take this country back. We may even be too late now.

BTW, most of the younger people in this country have very little, if any, knowledge of the genius of the Founding Fathers and their documents, because of the Cultural Marxism being promoted in the schools for decades under "multiculturalism" and "diversity".

If you go onto the Beck thread, there is a list of the sites that host the shows.

It will be like the fifth or sixth post. Good luck and PM me when you find it. Maybe we can write to Glenn and ask him to say something.

Who cares about this my only point is that Beck is part of the movement it seems you are so emotionally attached to this man he is only a man we need millions of people to turn this around you are as important as any of them.

The main point for me is that we need to take this country back bit by bit it will take decades to think that in one broad swoop we are going to turn this around in a third pary is someone who doesnt understand how we got here.

Its taken the leftist over 70 years to get this opportunity to over throw our capitalist system for good.

Which means going forward the American people must stay vigilant for the rest of there lives when it comes to politics and not put their faith in one man or personality but in the principles of our founders.

But it starts by taking back the Republican party from the Mccains and Grahams and prop up the Conservatives in 2010. If we go the way of 3rd party we wont get the chance to fight that life long battle for our future.

This is not about one man one journalist one personality its about your family and future of your children period. I listen to Rush Levin Beck but I dont worship them that what the left wants because then they can manipulate you like they are doing now.

Stay focussed on the enemy and the ways we can engage them and defeat them politically.
