Glenn Beck is a friend of liberty

[Nate K]

I've always liked Glenn but wasn't sure till now if I would call him a friend of the cause (watching reruns on fox) when he made a statement that goes something like, "This is the problem with America, people think we're invincible simply because we're America and nothing bad can ever happen."

That is the type of thinking that separates thinkers from neocon stinkers. I think some of you need to recognize he's done a LOT of good for the cause and has been absolutely remarkable on his new show thus far. In case anyone hasn't seen it - Inconvenient Debt

I'll probably get flamed by the haters but I don't mind them, they gave us a bad image sending him hateful mail.

 

[Kotin]

I agree.. he has come quite far.


I think of him as an ally.

 

[Xenophage]

Glenn isn't an enemy. He's not real philosophically strong, nor is he always a clear thinker - but he's certainly a clearer thinker than most talk show hosts. I find myself enjoying his show more often than not.

 

[mediahasyou]

He is one of the best of the msm.

 

[michaelwise]

It seems to me like he is getting religion.

 

[ARealConservative]

I don't really trust him, but right now he is about the best voice we have on MSM

 

[Kludge]

He may be friendly with liberty, but I still dislike him.

 

[rockjoa]

Listen to his show he really gets it. He hires his own research team to look into issues we face, in this process he really gained insite into the crisis and its causes. He is waking lots of people up and letting them know what will happen to help them prepare physically and mentally. His view is that we should become people of value and integrity, and invest in things of true value. He may not be correct on everything but is willing to admit mistakes.

I think he is valuable to the liberty movement.

 

[ClayTrainor]

Im still undecided.

I want to like him, and i like *nearly* everything he's been saying lately however, something about him seems a bit phony to me.

He just seems more like an entertainer than a News guy. I heard he even does a live standup comedy tour, is this true?

I worry that FOX is somehow trying to harness some of the power of our movement, for their own purposes, and they will use beck to do this.

It could just be that i don't trust the media, and I will always be skepticle of the talking heads they put in front of me.

Beck is DEFINITELY one of my favorite MSM pundits, but that's really not saying too much.

MEMORY HOLE ALERT.​

Ffs people. Get a grip on reality.

Glenn Beck - Ron Paul - Terrorism?


What you will now see in the Media

Ron Paul: Gold Standard 1/30/09 Fox Business

^ Check that shit out!

They are helping him explain the point! People picture carrying around gold, when you mention the gold standard.. they set that money gag up, so they could help the viewers connect with what Ron was saying, to show it ISN'T insane.

Proves my point exactly... FOX HELPING RON MAKE HIS POINT?!

His message NEVER CHANGED. They were bemoaning him a few months ago, "GOLD STANDARD?! ROFLCOPTER" "KOOK"

And whats even more hilarious, it was that same guy...

This ain't genuine, this again - just trying to bring people into the fold.

Point being, move people in the direction of lewrockwell.com and mises.org WHILE YOU CAN.

I guarantee it. If you started going around telling people to watch Glenn Beck, COME THE NEXT TERROR ATTACK - which Biden has been talking about, you fcken KNOW for god damn sure, BECK is going to revert back to his bullshit, "DOMESTIC TERRORISTS".

And guess what a-holes, RON PAUL SUPPORTERS are going to be in the firing line.

Supporting BECK is supporting your own demise. Good luck with that. I for one, won't jump off the cliff, or give the enemy the handgun.

People can change their minds, and Glenn Beck has changed his tune on a lot of issues since then. He even has Ron Paul and Penn Jillette on and agrees with most of what they're saying.

I wouldnt mind watching that.

 

[sparebulb]

Bleckt is a friend of liberty............if the definition of liberty is fascism.

 

[nate895]

was Penn on recently?

I wouldnt mind watching that.

He was on sometime late last week. I don't where to find a video, however.

Yeah, David Asman has changed his minds aswell!!!

Ron Paul: Gold Standard 1/30/09 Fox Business

So much so, everybody at fox news has also suddenly changed their mind!

It's a friggin miracle! Everyones now a libertarian or at least using the rhetoric, and is attacking the status quo. ZOMG?!!?!111 Like it's genuine folks, they weeeeeellly weeaallyyy means it. I lub my mainstream media, they use logic and reasoning...!!11 they aren't some fourth estate, or are much more effective than pravda!! Hell no, Ron Paul has been saying the exact same thing for about a year now... BUT NO, they're converted now. They've seeeeeenzzz teh lightssss?!!

</being a retard>

Seriously, wake up. Again.

 

[Nyte]

Beck talks about issues with a libertarian/constitutional perspective... When I listen to Beck, I feel he's sincerely trying to promote individual liberty and personal responsibility.

You won't get that from Limbaugh or Hannity.

He might not be the "perfect" mouthpiece for liberty, but he's waking people up. That, to me, means that he's a friend for now.

David Asman has always said shit like that. I say that because I have watched Fox since they were on the air, and David Asnan has been there from the beginning.

 

[nobody's_hero]

One year ago, I would have voted "no" without hesitation because I'd just learned about Ron Paul and Beck was being terribly closed-minded towards the r3volution.

Two years ago, I would have voted "yes" because I'd never heard of Ron Paul and was rather closed-minded.

Now, I say "undecided", although I am decided on one thing—Glenn Beck has made some drastic improvements, but he is still a work in progress. So am I. So are we all.

 

[RevolutionSD]

He's pro-war, therefore he is for the theft of money from citizens to pay for the murder of innocent people over seas. Someone please explain to me how this could be construed as liberty?
