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)

My thoughts exactly!!
And Mark has given Beck props for his dogged coverage of Van Jones and such issues.
What Mark objects to is when Beck reads from Mark’s book and doesn’t give any attribution. Mark is tough but fair.
You’re thinking of HARVEY LEVIN. Not Mark Levin.
Facts are stubborn things.

According to this Beck is #3 behind Rush and Sean and Levin is tied in 4th place with Ingraham and Savage.
Correction, BEck is tied in #3 with Dr. Laura and Savage and Mark is tied in 4th with Ramsey and Ingraham.
Knowing Mark’s credentials is crucial to understanding why the Left avoids him like the plague. They simply can not outdebate him on the merits, and his legal and litigation background gives him the upper hand in the discussion of ideas.
They can’t debunk his thinking as that of someone with unimpressive credentials, and they won’t embarass him in a heated or pointed situation, as HAS occurred with both Michelle Bachman and Ms. Palin (unfortunately for both). They both need to get closer to Mark’s speed to beat the Left.
He has also come right out and challenged certain people to come on his show, and has also promised to sue any entity who wants to come after him in a court of law.
But I still wish he’d lay the 5PMer, and understand that EVERYONE who opposes the obamanation has a common enemy which must be fought and beaten.
Except BEck is not hammering Mark.. I never hear him mention Mark or Hannity.. Mark OTOH has been going after Frum (who I cannot stand) to Beck and he needs to cut it out.
Beck never talks about any of those guys.... this is all one-sided started when a liberal tried to compare Beck to Rush and Levin jumped in to say Beck wasn’t worthy of being mentioned in the same sentence as Rush — and the Media jumped all over that as a GOP catfight and then Levin kept it up after Glenn made his comments on McCain...and, yes this is why I don’t listen to Mark anymore and why I quit listening to Savage.. (who also loves to trash other commentators)... I think Mark needs to cool it.
Several of us asked for specific examples from the Beck show last night.. if Beck has done this most of us regular viewers who have read Mark’s book have missed it... so please, we are all serious give us links to specifics.
LOL, yep, they sure are.
No, I am not thinking of Harvey Levin. Look it up.
>>What Mark objects to is when Beck reads from Mark’s book and doesn’t give any attribution.<<
From what I can see, no one has been able to give an example of “reading” from Mark’s book.
If it’s just that Beck has quoted from Mark’s sources i.e. gave the same info on Cass Sunstein that Mark did, it’s not really from the book.
If, however, Beck lifted the commentary Mark gave regarding that info, that is stealing and not right.
So basically Mark himself is not a credible source? Can’t recognize a paragraph from his own book? Don’t believe us when we cite other occasions Beck has used Mark’s original sayings, gags, slogans etc after Mark plays clips of Beck repeating them on his show? So Mark lies, we lie, we all just hate Glenn for some unknown reason? Just because you haven’t something doesn’t make it untrue.
Here’s Mark about the paragraph.
http://marklevinshow.com/sectional.asp?id=32930# Listen to the 8/25 show about 7 minutes in after he talks about Liebowitz and Maher.
I believe we all have egos that need stroking, and to take pokes at others who compete to get the attention of the rest of us is probably not much of a stretch...
They are in the limelight...Most of us are not, so we’ll see it more in their arena, than ours...
At least they’ll get the attention, whereas, we’ll just take it to the mat in other ways that won’t get a lot of attention...
Thanks, Ghengis, I appreciate that.
Conservatives alone cannot outnumber everyone else. But citizens who are *for America* can outnumber the anti-Americans. And decisively, too.
This terrifies the hard left, and the Administration. They know it, and they’re pulling out every card they can to keep it from happening.
THAT is the big picture.
Um, excuse me but where did I say that Mark lied?
And if you think that I’m going through three hours from his show to prove you right, You’re mistaken.
How about if you give the exact quote that Beck used and the date of HIS show?
Like I said, I would need to hear Mark say exactly WHAT Beck said then judge for myself. Until you can give a quote of exactly what Beck said and then where it is in Mark’s book, you have hearsay and nothing else. You GIVE it, not me searching for it for three hours. I have a life, a husband and kids. I have no need to go through that much work for an imaginary friend on the radio.
Personally, I think the whole situation is DELIGHTING the libs. Beck needs to own up if he did it, Levin needs to man up and slap a cease and desist order on Beck or drop it. Imitation is the highest form of flattery.
If you bothered reading what I wrote, which you apparently didn’t, it’s after the
7 minute mark. You just move the tab to 7 minutes and presto. Pretty easy.

I listened to it. Mark Levin is saying that Glenn read a whole paragraph from his book on air.
Really? It must have been a real short paragraph. Have you seen Glenn’s attention span?
Does Glenn come up with original material? Yes he does so all the time. Is it possible that he could have read a paragraph of Levin’s work. It is possible, but I don’t see it. Is Glenn ripping of Levin when he boils a frog? Huh? Is he ripping of Levin if he talks about Acorn or Cass Sustein? No.
Is Glenn laying out the wonderful prose and logic of Levin and not crediting Levin? Ah, no, Glenn doesn’t do prose like Levin. Glen is goofy remember!? I don’t see how it is possible. Levin must be jealous and overly sensitive to something we are not aware.
But Levin, could make it easy to end the speculation and man up and tell us the specific. It is actually an act of lying and deception to lead people with half of the story, because it allows one’s imagination to fill in gaps.
Man up, Levin, tell the whole story and not just the part that makes you look good!
And I really don't even hate McCain.
We're jealous of Beck's success. You caught us.
