====> ::::: The ALL Glenn Beck Thread ::::: <=====

[kylejack]

Not really, he made it clear the the fundraiser was a grassroots effort that paul had no part to do with. He didn't say we were crazy, and he said he supported libertarians and their ideas. He then went on to speculate that there is intense diasaffection with the governemnt and wonders if there will be actual revolt similar to the revolution against britain. Hell, he even admits bush has been lying to us when mentioning why people are disaffected. And the people his guests he brings on to argue against Paul are people you don't want to associate with. A plump British guy, and Horowitz who Beck makes special attention to point out as a former Marxist neocon. I think the attention was positive, and could've been much worse. Just realize that these pundits aren't going to come out and endorse Paul (or any candiadte), but they can support his ideas like beck does when he rallies against gun controll, loss of us sovereignity, and border control. Welcome, btw. I would've agreed with you wholeheartedly a month ago before I really began to see how these guys operated.

It sounds like you guys got your story wrong again, if what terlingua says is true. I'm getting really sick of the lies and mischaracterizations you guys offer.

1. Miscommunication
2. Didn't respond to subsequent interview requests
3. Called Beck a demagogue
4. Compared him to Bill O'Reilly
5. Marginalized his show

So you're asking Dr. Paul to retract what he said and apologize to Glenn Beck?

Answering the phone would be a good start. Baby steps.

 

[Lord Xar]

the way I look at it.. is this..

RON PAUL IS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.

IF he can go on Glen Beck's show and reach MILLIONS of people and actually apologize for cancelling for a "different" talkshow.. HE SHOULD! And he should do it pronto!

You think if you had a business meeting lined up, and your partner cancelled because they had a 'better opportunity' after giving you their word? To me, Benton pulled a lame stunt. It doesn't matter "what you may think"... You would have to spend MILLIONS of dollars to equal the amount of airtime he would get on Glen Becks' show.

All you have to say is "Hey Glen, can we have time to address questions and issues you bring up so this doesn't turn into an O'Reilly scenario?"

I am not with people here who said "Phuk glen!" -- that is unprofessional and highly unwise. Why on earth would you minimize your MSM coverage when that is exactly what you need?

Benton, Don or whomever reads these boards, get Ron Paul on Glen Beck and at least admit there was a misunderstanding with his campaign manager......

1. A TON OF PUBLICITY
2. AN END to the CONSTANT RHETORIC

I get so pisses at sometimes the lack of judgement. How long would it take to get Ron Paul on the line for a phone interview?

Bad management. I mean, if it goes bad -- Ron can just say "you know, you have been dishonest in your dealings with me and I am truly sorry for you. Good luck" and end the interview.

1. Miscommunication - Happens
2. Didn't respond to subsequent interview requests - Ron Paul's a busy man
3. Called Beck a demagogue - 100% true
4. Compared him to Bill O'Reilly - Accurate comparison
5. Marginalized his show - Good

I'm sorry I saw the tail end of it and it was really bad. There is very little that can justfiy what Glen did. The only reason I didn't get as angry is because I knew what to expect.

I hope your right. I mean there is a huge difference between a Stein hitpiece, and implying a group supports terrorism against the govt.

 

[RonPaulStreetTeam]

proud to be a terrorist I guess.

you're dodging the question.

 

[Liberty Star]

Who pays attention to that idiot?

His brain is still fried from all that abuses he subjected it too.

 

[JosephTheLibertarian]

is there any way to make it up?

You know something....

I don;t even read most these post's....

I get so damn pissed off at people starting threads over the stupidest crap, and then it has 8 pages of posts??? WTF?

I'm glad none of you are my friends, I would would want to smack the (STUPID) out of you

 

[Question_Authority]

OK, if he is saying that Ron Paul supporters are terrorists, could we not each file suit for slander? I am not talking about Ron Paul filing for slander, he never called Ron Paul a terrorist. Also, a politician opens himself up to some attacks due to being in the public arena.


I am not playing the victim here, someone has got to throw down the gauntlet on this, I am talking class-action with each one of us asking for $2300 in damages. The baseless attacks must stop.

Honestly? I would be up for this. I am fed up to here with this ass. And that WAS slander.

 

[kylejack]

Yes, Ron Paul should apologize for canceling the interview booking and arrange another time for the full hour interview.

Yeah, and its always the same people with these posts too.

Let freedom ring....

I suspect Glenn would still have him on, but until the campaign staff drops this arrogant tone they're taking with him and calls to request the interview, I don't see an end-game.

 

[courtney]

Forget Glenn Beck, folks. The campaign doesn't need him, period.

Think about it. Make no mistake about it, the guy is getting a kick out all of your indignant reactions, all of the stompings off in rages of anger. He only gives a crap about Paul because you guys give him ratings, i.e., the loud-mouth thrives on controversy, period, as most if not all radio hosts must to an extent. He's in a business that requires his listeners to be riled up day after day over something, otherwise he... well he falls off the face of the earth! Seriously! Just like that.

Really, you guys are making it too easy for him. And in the meantime, his head is mushrooming even larger than the jack-o-lanterned state it's already in.

Some of you are just too easy....
