Did anybody see the Glenn Beck(?) show last night
I was getting ready for bed and I thought as I was channel surfing, I'd pause and watch this guy for a bit. He had someone on that said that we for sure would be in Iran within the year. That if we didn't go into Iran, Iran would either attack Israel or visa versa. I didn't get the guy's name, but he spoke in total definites. No, "if, possibly, most likely, could be, chances are.... he spoke in defintes. The host was a jerk and I turned the show off pretty quickly, but his guest was downright scarey. Does anybody have any info on any of this?

2. I wouldn't watch Beck if I had a loaded gun pointed at my head...
...and I've watched Hannity. I've watched O'Reilly. I've watched Fox and every assbite they could assemble under the pretense of "news."

Beck is a skid mark on the underwear of life, and the clock is ticking on his worthless 15 minutes. He's a pig, he's a sideshow freak, he's a prick waiting to be canceled.

:patriot:

3. Sorry. Wouldn't consider it. He's very sub-standard. It's embarrassing
seeing him bumbling around.

He's too stupid to be worth your time.

4. They're making him sound all warm and fuzzy on those commercials
WHY they're running them on AAR is beyond me...he's a hatemonger.

5. Please understand, I just was channel surfing, and his guest caught
my attention with his strong words and ominious opinion about Iran. Shortly after the guy was off, I turned the show off because the host "Beck" seemed like a real jerk - idiot to me.

11. don't apologize for watching RW garbage
I do it more than I should admit. It's just flat out good listening when they are on their game and spouting lots of crazy. Glen Beck can be counted on for some good crazy. Frankly, it's more consumer friendly than LW talk shows. I don't know why, it's just done better. Lot's of practice and more polished hosts I guess.

out of their blithering delusional asses. I'm sure it's entertaining in the same sense a freak show would.

10. i think those are local buys on individual stations
someone brought it up to either malloy or randi and that was their take. cnn advertises on our affiliate often.

on the bright side, msnbc tried a blanket of promotion to save dennis miller just before he was canned. beck's ratings are nonexistant and this is probably a last-ditch attempt to save him

15. Always remember
that Glenn Beck is the moran who is a supposed "recovered" alcoholic/drug addict who after he cleaned up says that he went "religion shopping" and found that becoming a mormon was "the best fit" for him...
