Glenn Beck is on Fire Today!!!

Yes, but he did it in a really vague "Yes, we've made mistakes in the past" sort of way. Nothing specific. That's all we get out of anyone in government. Just vague platitudes.

I think it would go a long way if a President said "It was wrong and a mistake to overthrow Mossadegh in 1953. We're sorry and we won't do things like that anymore." Or "We talk a lot about freedom and democracy but we've supported oppressive dictators for our own benefit. That's wrong and we're going to stop"

Of course, the reason nobody says stuff like that is because they don't plan on stopping it.

That is actually how the candidacy of John Anderson had heated up against Ronald Reagan in 1980. He said he would have voted against the Tonkin Gulf Resolution if he could do it over again, and that set him off in the field. But he had to take his bid to an independent line and ended up with 7% and participation in only 1 debate.
 
Looks like the Liberals are responding to his show. They still bash him for being a crazy hater lol
 
The 5th point sucked. That's one of the reasons for the blowback we receive. We always crow about the great things we do, but never acknowledge the shitty things we do.

It's just like the stupid left-right paradigm. It's either America is the source of all trouble in the world or America can do no wrong. There is a rational middle road, y'know.

I think you are missing the point. Yeah the USA has f'up, but holy shit have you checked into the histories of the other countries? I agree with point 5 and I believe Ron Paul would too.

Why should our Pres go on an apology tour to places like Egypt (freaking Egypt) and appease for mistakes like water boarding while these countries continue to oppress women, execute people for political and/or religious beliefs and cut off limbs as punishment for crimes?
 
Glenn Beck is doing Libertarians a lot of favors these days. He is one of the best MSM folks that brings up issues that resemble Libertarian views. I just can't get what is with folks bashing him. No one is saying you need to worship every word he says, but lets be objective Glenn Beck has tackled some tough subjects and shed a lot of light on really important issues.

He openly discussed the FED and hyperinflation amongst other things. I am glad he is on FOX news. Think of all the Neocons he reaches.
 
THAT sunuvagun is good. Hate him if you want, but he is a GREAT speaker ...he hits right in the gut. Fabulous. thanks for that. TOnes (oh...and he's right...right right RIGHT)
 
Just go to News.Google.Com
Every Liberal online newspaper is throwing a hissy fit over him.

Yeah, its starting to piss me off. These people will never wake up. They don't live in the same realm as we do and never will.
 
While I don't agree with everything Glenn says I am liking a lot of what he is doing lately.
 
The show was a bit of a let down. I liked most of what he said, but the In & Out segment was rather lame and loud. It had that annoying ignorant Republican sound to it. The rest of the week was phenomenal, but this show...blah. Too much patriot crap and not enough philosophical speech.
 
I am in the crowd of people around that remember '07 well and remain skeptical and maybe even a little optimistic about Glenn Beck's sincerity.

I think Glenn Beck is at his best when he makes points and then hammers the audience with the facts to support it.

I think Glenn Beck could gain more respect among this crowd by revisiting his domestic terrorist piece on Ron Paul supporters in 2007 and making amends. A little recognition for some of the positive impacts that have been carried forward beyond the campaign would be nice.
 
I only liked the middle of the show in parts. That last video was kindof frightening. To me it seemed a combo of the power of the state augmented by the mob....

Well... to help you get the drift of some of the Beck bashing, first please re-read your post.

“Is Beck doing Libertarians a favor?” No, not really, not true Libertarians. He's only watering down a Libertarian message. Diluting the medicine. Creating neoLibs.

“Think of all the neocons he reaches.” The reason there are so many neocons is because the "conservative" message was watered down, no? Sure, watering down a “conservative” message may have helped spread something that

resembled
conservative views…now we're dealing with the results.

There are plenty folks who are done with the lowering of the bar. We always hear our Country is on the brink, so... we should aim lower or just enough to avoid catastrophe? :confused:

The “Beck bashing” is the “..animated contest of freedom..”:)

It is simply Liberty minded folk encouraging or daring other Liberty minded folk to aim higher or even over-steer, because of the urgency of our situation.

When he stops talking outta both sides of his mouth, maybe he can garner some trust. Until then, he's nothing but an entertaining puppet.
 
What talent agency represents Beck... no, seriously. His past talent agents can give insight as to the type talent they represent.
