I just had to watch Glenn Beck here in the 11 AM Pacific Hour, because some in the right-wing Twitterverse were all abuzz about a “big announcement.”
Beck complained about accusations that he is a McCarthyist, because he’s “not a Senator” and doesn’t have subpoena power, which of course is utterly true and utterly beside the point as he and the rest of the right continue their smear campaigns. Beck and the right have decided to repeat ad nauseam that there is some kind of secret “socialist” agenda at work by defining those who disagree with him as commies or whatever, so his crocodile tears are pretty transparent.
Beck then gave a rambling, nearly twenty minute speech in which he essentially compared Washington, D.C. to the swine flu and called for a “quarantine” of the city. I use the qualifier “essentially” because Beck goes all over the place in his little talks, earnestly professing his love for country and insisting that it’s not about partisanship, when in fact Beck has become the de facto leader of the kind of insane right wing partisanship that was last dominate when Bill Clinton was president.
It was all pretty awesome, with Beck standing in front of a big-screen graphic as the swine-flu-corruption disease spread across a map of the U.S, with Beck asking the computer controller to go back and start at the beginning of the outbreak for dramatic effect. He’s standing in front of a graphic! OMG!
Beck really wasn’t clear about his proposed “quarantine” of the seat of government, although at one point he seemed to be repeating something like “nothing in, no legislation out.” So it appears he’s not actually calling for a physical quarantine of D.C. Whew!
Then Beck moved into something of an Elmer Gantry act, promising redemption to members of both parties who would expose corruption, and asking for 56 “re-Founders” of the Republic, the same number as originally signed the Declaration of Independence. I’d imagine he might just get that number, seeing there are at least that number of far-right Republicans left in Congress who would likely have no compunction about hitching their wagon up to Beck.
Beck hit the corruption theme hard, naming mostly Democrats and liberal organizations but also at least one Republican. Beck promised his viewers (always leave them wanting more!) that on Monday he would tell members of Congress how to become a re-Founder, and promising to forgive members if they did the right thing. It’s a fascinating amalgam of populist rhetoric, Christian-like redemption talk and high-tech blinky lights that Beck uses.
Oh, it’s worth noting that Beck delivered his emotional appeal against corruption on the Rubert Murdoch-owned Fox Noise Channel, on the day that the 9-12 event Beck created was being sponsored by the following earnest grass roots organizations: (admittedly selective list, you can click through to see all of them)
Freedom Works
National Taxpayers Union
Grassfire.Org
The Club for Growth
The Ayn Rand Center
NARLO
Americans for Tax Reform
Senate Conservatives Fund
etc.
So yeah, corruption is bad, Glenn. Definitely bad.

Any citations to back that up Jon? Is exposing the truth about Van Jones being a communist now a “smear campaign” because Jones shares your political philosophy? Is exposing Obama’s friendship with avowed communist Frank Davis Marshall a smear or fact? Or Ayers or Dohrn of the “Weather underground” domestic terror group?
Try thinking for a change, Jon. Simply attacking Beck for exposing the truth is a cowards tact.
Perhaps you’ll take up batshit crazy Seattle Jew’s offer of showing up armed to Safeco field for Beck’s visit. Of course, SJ was too dense to realize that Safeco was privately owned and that he couldn’t bring his pee shooter to the event.
Score another one for a liberal using irrational emotions over common sense…Here in Seattle, it’s the norm rather than the exception.
YLB spews:

Actually, I’m in Edmonds with the civil folks. I abandoned Seattle years ago when perverts and pedophiles overtook the population there.
BTW, Beck shouldn’t have to take up the ACORN case of aiding and abetting international human traficking for the purposes of child molestation/prostitution….it should be the job of the main stream media, but they’re too busy covering for the president that’s too big to fail.

Beck is a hell of alot more Northwest than Goldy, Will or Darryl. He was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, WA and while he’s had his ups and downs in life, he’s overcome the obstacles.
He’s going to get the key to the city of Mt. Vernon at his event at Safeco.

FWIW Guns to Beck
I contacted the Seattle Police.
Carrying a weapon, with a carry permit, in a public place is completely legal. This includes the sidewalks, etc outside of SAFECO. The officer did point out that doing so would be an act that impinged on others rights .. exactly the point I made, but that under our laws the police would not interfere.
Empty Suit Obama spews:
On the original thread you claimed you’d “buy 2 tickets for the first persons” to join you. What kind of dumbass would pay $25 dollars a ticket to an event they didn’t plan to attend, and only stand outside?

If a liberal calls you on the shit you made up just SCREAM at him. Let all that hatred come OUT! Hate and bitterness is the real truth for the Beck addicts.
