Glenn Beck Assassinated Martin Luther King

Rhetorically. Possibly with a rhetorical plate glass window.

Just remember, YOU are the hate-mongers. You soulless, lost, Father Coughlin Nazi rhetorical assassins! (But he doesn’t mean that in a mean way.)

OPEN THREAD.

    King had a dream, affluent white lefties like Dean just have a scream. That’s how far downhill we have traveled.

    Move on, nothing to see here :)

    The thing about Dean is he has learned to be soft spoken, ala Tom Daschle, so sounds reasonable…until he says something moronic like this….or of course yells after the Iowa Caucus.

    How is “hijacking” your sacred MLK site any different than GMZ-ers hijacking the gravesite of 3000 murdered Americans??

    Know what it feels like now?

    But I know your anguish is all fake. You’re full of hype, trying to keep suckering your constituency by making Glenn appear a demon.

    Freedom means no monopoly on MLK or Lincoln, you commies.

    And to Dean, you schmuck: Glenn’s crazy and those who agree with them are lost souls BOUND FOR HELL!!

    Nice framing, but “in terms of who..uh, uh,er.. how many people vote,” not everyone could get to the Mall that day.

    They did during the time of Christ, and they do to this day. We are seeing in the vile hatred that the left spews at Christian conservatives, and anyone else who disagrees with their agenda.

    A few months ago, a gathering of anti-big government (anti-Obama) crowds didn’t get credit for existence. “What rally? Never heard of the Tea Party.”

    Today, they’re noticed. Feared.

      then they laugh at you

      then they attack you

      Then you win

    like Howard Dean. I’m good with that.

    What makes these comments on the video particularly hilarious is the fact that the anti-Beck rally was led by Alfred Sharpton, who has a long and unapologetic history of racial invective, hate mongering and fostering of divisiveness. Yet NOBODY on the left has the spine or sense of justice and fairness to condemn his actions and to say, “you, Mr. Sharpton, deserve no place in our public discourse, you are a monster.”

    A so-called “Reverend” who has borne false witness against his fellow man, with the Tawana Brawley case being a prime example.

    A man of the cloth who has fanned the flames of anti-white and anti-Jewish bigotry, with resulting violence and multiple murders, as occurred in the Crown Heights riot and the firebombing and mass massacre at Freddy’s Fashion Mart in Harlem.

    A man if God who openly and vociferously supported a gang of mutant scum because of their race. A gang who committed an extended gang rape and torture of a mother and child in the Dunbar Village case in Florida.

    These people don’t deserve the air time or attention given to them. They are irrelevant.

      They do great damage.

      Nor are they respectable.

      News stories about Sharpton should always put him in context. His words should be characterized as divisive and race-baiting. His actions should be described accurately, not misrepresented as responsible support for “the underprivileged.”

    If you’ve noticed, the NY Times (Chas. Blow included), MSNBC, CBS, The Christian Science Monitor, USA Today, and a whole host of others in the media have gone absolutely off the wall over Beck’s rally. I seriously doubt that any of the critics actually watched any of the rally. It was televised on Facebook & C-Span. Facebook alone had 130,000 viewers, so much for the CBS figure of 78-96,000 participants! What really gets me is, how they can get hatred from a man preaching religious values. Somehow it has become sacriligious to admit they were wrong about this guy. He must be stopped at all costs, demeaned, and/or destroyed. Several have already put that philosophy forward.

        According to Beck, O’Reilly told him: “I tell you what: If you have over a hundred or 200,000 [at the rally], you need to anchor the 8 p.m. show.”

        We should play this video over and over again each time Obama blames Bush..

        • smitch61

          How about a video comparing the two events? Saturday’s and then this bafoon.. God bless America, then God damn America… That would put the whole thing in perspective.

      that far-left moonbat, Beau Friedlander, the former editor-in-chief of Air America, attempted to insert a column in the Huffington Post which offered $100,000 for anyone who could produce a sex tape or other damaging information about Glen Beck. Of course he wasn’t fronting the money himself, but would broker-deal to obtain the funds. The Post ultimately pulled the column since they claimed it failed to meet their editorial standards.

      This is just the opening round in the left’s attempts to Alinskyize Beck.

      • merryj1

        When the $100,000 offer for a sex tape or other damaging info was mentioned, Beck quipped that if they would raise it to $250,000 he would “make a sex tape himself.”

  • earlgrey

    His arrogant dismissal of them is jarring. Obama’s arrogance hit me hard and early during the 2008 campaign, but for some reason I dislike Dean even more. He cannot claim to have an ounce of respect for the type of government our forefathers wanted and still talk about citizens that way.

  • right2

    it’s Obama. Charles Blow has before mentioned the “verbal assassination of a good man” and the “good man” of whom he speaks is the all important Obamaman.

  • youngsterz

    I didn’t attend. I didn’t watch on Facebook. But I am engaged, and the more asinine the comments from knuckleheads like Dean, the MORE committed I am.

    Just keep fanning the flames, oh all wise, all knowing MSM and enlightened Left. You only help our cause. The day they stop making these sorts of stupid comments is the day that mainstream independent America starts to go back to sleep.

        Every time they open their mouths I grin:)

        With every breath they take we’s a watchin’ ‘em and more and more people are beginning to watch em too.

        It reminds me of here in Georgia when Cynthia McKinney, who had been in the US House for quite sometime, finally felt brave enough to spout off what she really thought(she believed Bush was behind 9/11) and then while campaigning had Louis Farrekhan standing up with her. The light bulbs went off in her constituents’ heads and they voted her out as quick as they could.

        People don’t pay attention to who their representatives are and what they do so when the reps tell on themselves, it makes life alot easier for us that have been trying to pay attention to get others to listen to us.

  • smitch61

    Have no words anymore. I am older than most of you on this site I am sure, and I have never seen anything like this in my lifetime.. ever.. I was listening to Bill Press ( I know) this morning, and could not believe my ears.. I will say one thing, based on Bill’s rhetoric this morning and “anti mormon” anti christian rant that went on for minutes, I am convinced that it does not matter who wants Mitt or not, he does not have a chance to be president. The media overlooked Obama’s childhood and faith of his family, as well as his name in general, but they will never ever give Mitt Romney the same respect..

  • merryj1

    Beck has encouraged everyone to look into and contemplate the biblical Moses: Dr. Charles Swindoll’s Great Lives from God’s Word series includes “Moses: A Man of Selfless Dedication” (1999, Word Publishing, Nashville). Dr. Swindoll has authored over two dozen books, countless mini-books and booklets, and (at least at the time of the “Moses” publication) is president of Dallas Theological Seminary and host of the “Insight for Living” nationally-syndicated radio show.

    Singing a musical version of “Ebony and Ivory”..is all I could think of as to how the two of them will mop up their sorrow in November….

    …Charles Blow opens his mouth and confirms he’s a fool, rather than keeping it shut and letting others THINK he’s a fool(to bastardize Twain).
