Glenn Beck is an idiot

Karma can be a real b*tch sometimes...hahahahahahahahaha

"Glenn Beck returns to Fox News Channel on Monday after a vacation with fewer companies willing to advertise on his show than when he left, part of the fallout from calling President Barack Obama a racist.

A total of 33 Fox advertisers, including Wal-Mart Stores Inc., CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint, directed that their commercials not air on Beck's show...That's more than a dozen more than were identified a week ago.

The Clorox Co., a former Beck advertiser, now says that "we do not want to be associated with inflammatory speech used by either liberal or conservative talk show hosts."

That old excuse of "I'm an entertainer, or he or she is an entertainer," has lost its function!

Even smart republican congressmen and women won't say ANYTHING bad about these "entertainers." They agree with them and are glad they don't have to say it!

That stuff was a part of the lost elections conservatives had.

They are conservatives!

You can always tell who the Progressive Liberals FEAR.. Who they want you to vote for by trying to destroy them..

Mainstream I know "Hope and Change" is all you guys have now.. But "Hoping" to silence Conservatives and trying to "CHANGE" the makeup of America just shows how utterly pathetic you people really are.

Is there really a boycott of Glenn Beck?(Click on Link for the Story)

VERIZON DENIES PULLING ADS FROM GLENN BECK PROGRAM ON FOXNEWS

"Boycott Leader "Color of Change" a Radical Group
Founder a self-described black "nationalist" and "Communist"; Links to terrorist
Barack Obama's "Green Jobs" czar (one of 42 extra-legal czars), and the founder of the group organizing a boycott against Glenn Beck, is a self-described "black nationalist" and "Communist", who has ties to a former terrorist. Van Jones, founder of "Color of Change", a black militant political activist group, worked as a co-founder and director of the Apollo Alliance, which Glenn Beck recently exposed for its questionable ties to radical left-wing groups. Van Jones worked at Apollo with Jeff Jones. Jeff Jones was a leading co-founder (along with Bill Ayers) of the terrorist group Weather Undergound , who spent time on the run from law enforcement agencies while his group carried out a series of bombings of U.S. government buildings. "Color of Change" began the boycott against Glenn Beck after Beck exposed Apollo Alliance and Van Jones' militant past."

Another hatchet job by the Progressive Liberals and their sychophants the Main Stream Media..

BTW.. 26 new sponsors just signed on.. So on one hand we have "reports" that now most have proven false or not intended for Beck alone and on the other 26 more just signed on..
I think Beck will be just fine..
Mainstream My Sincere THANKS to you for bringing this up... Glenn's show according to Nelson ratings more then double his closest competitor.. again my THANKS.. Bring more people in to listen..

AS usual MSM has it WRONG again.. I know I am shocked too..

The few who actually asked not to be on Beck’s show merely shifted their advertising to other Fox shows, i.e. Hannity, O’reilly, Cavuto, etc. A 'big win' for all the racist-loving liberals.

Glenn Beck states the exact truth. The good, the bad and the ugly. No ones ever wants to hear the truth. He is the only person in the media telling the whole story. Thank God there are some people like Glenn Beck whom are trying to safe our country.

Glenn Beck's truths: Obama's a racist with no birth certificate who has the support of his Nazi democrat party to lock up dittoheads in FEMA concentration camps lining the superhighway being built to consolidate the North American Union so that his socialist government health care managers can brainwash their aging parents into refusing medical care by forcing them to listen to mandatory death counseling.

By gold and non-hybrid seeds to prepare for the coming apocalypse!

Glenn Beck.

LOL.

"Obama's a racist with no birth certificate "

HALF-TRUTH.. Glen did say Obama is a Racist and has issues with Whites.. Obama has proved that one himself.. Glenn has never said Obama has no Birth Cert.. In fact he detest the "Birthers"..

"lock up dittoheads in FEMA concentration camps lining the superhighway"

Compete FALSE HOOD.. Glenn debunked the FEMA camps.. Are you not keeping up with Darth Dubious blogs.. his po'ed at Glenn for that one..

" refusing medical care by forcing them to listen to mandatory death counseling."

Not sure why you are giging Glenn on that one.. That was in the bill you probrally read it yourself.. Ask a VET about the "Death Book" Obama brought back into the VA after Pres Bush had it removed..

You might want to listen a little before you go off half-cocked like Bonkers..

Let's recap... You did tell one truth... Glenn said Obama is a Rascist.. listen to the entire conversation for the context.. but you won't it will not fit your mold of Conservitives are "KAWAZY"

Thought you were above some of this.. Guess I was mistaken..

I was just being funny. I even listen to Beck in the morning. In fact, just the other day I heard him on a rant about the birthers.

Here's Beck backtracking on the FEMA stuff:

Glenn Beck's FEMA Backflip

Beck on California:

Glenn Beck wants to kick California out of the Union

Beck on the coming the apocalypse:

Glen Beck Prepare For The Worst Part 1 of 3

I could go on and on, he's just so easy to caricature. With people like him representing the R's it makes it so easy for the D's to paint the Rep. Party as filled with extremist wackos. Of course around here he's mainstream.

Obama's putting off the immigration stuff 'till closer to the election so that he can use Beck and Hannity to drive all the Hispanics to the Dem. Party.

Like Michael Savage, a useful fool. I like him.

Barack Obama - 2003: "I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14% of its gross national product on health care, cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody."

Keep it up Mr. President - You're doing a heckuva job! What fun it is to watch the liberal Democrat party implode.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

Barack Obama - 2003: "I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14% of its gross national product on health care, cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that's what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that's what I'd like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately"

Presidend Obama, August 2009: "I have not said that I was a single-payer supporter because, frankly, we historically have had a employer-based system in this country with private insurers, and for us to transition to a system like that I believe would be too disruptive."

The real joke in all of this mess is President Obama himself. He's a narcissitic liar that will lie straight to the American people and think nothing of it as long as it enables him and his liberal communist cabinet to remain in power.

He doesn't care about Americans or America. When he claims that there will be no rationing of health care under his plans, the President is lying and he knows it. Consider what happened to Barbara Wagner, who's on Oregon’s state-run health care program. Her doctor prescribed a cancer drug that slows the spread of disease and the Oregon Health Plan refused to cover the cost of the treatment. However, they did note some other things they would cover including ”doctor-assisted suicide.”

Democrats say their plan will cover a lot more Americans. Yet, there are no provisions in it to add any new doctors or nurses. In fact, one of the ways they're going to save money is by simply refusing to pay hospitals the full value of what their services are worth. Take any business and dramatically increase the number of customers they're serving with the same staff while significantly decreasing the amount of money per customer they receive, and you're going to get a drop-off in quality. How bad can it get? In Britain, 100 people a week lose their eyesight because the government run health care system is so overstretched that they can't get them an appointment with an optometrist. That's how it works in Britain and that’s how it will eventually work here, too, if the Democrats have their way.

President Obama suggested at a recent town hall event that one way to shave medical costs is to stop expensive and ultimately futile procedures performed on people who are about to die and don't stand to gain from the extra care.

In a nationally televised event at the White House, Obama said families need better information so they don't unthinkingly approve "additional tests or additional drugs that the evidence shows is not necessarily going to improve care."

He added: "Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller."

And maybe our President shouldn't pretend to know about something when it is completely obvious to the rest of the rational world that he doesn't have a clue.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

Are you that naive or have the meds worn off? Take a closer look to see things like a rise in ratings, or perhaps it was a blog that insinuated the ad withdrawal, can you convince anyone that Katie Couric is a better draw?

Take your meds.
