Any info on Glenn Beck?

[holiday]

I'm talking back and forth to someone who keeps areguing with me about how wonderful he is, and how right he is. She does not think he is far right.

Is there any info/websites that point out his falsehoods.. I did send her a link to snopes.com that mentioned he lied about cash for clunkers website but that isn't convincing her enough that he is a nut job.

2. There is no hope for anybody who doesn't think Beck is a nut job

Whatever else you can say about him, that much should be apparent by the time you hear him utter three words.

4. Think of all the cool things you could be doing with the time you're spending arguing

with this person.

6. I just cut off a "discussion" with one..

I was debating with a DR table also - she told me that Glenn Beck hates Republicans also!
Then she repeated the acorn stimulus myth!
Smile and wave, smile and wave.

7. Stop wasting your time.

People like that already have their minds made up, and no amount of reality will change their opinions.


Beck plays a part on TV just as an actor on a soap opera would: for a paycheck. He doesn't do it for any other reason. He has no deep-seated political beliefs other than those that will earn him MONEY.

If there was more money to be made spouting passages from "Das Kapital" and singing "L'Internationale" between commercial breaks, Beck and the useful tools just like him would be doing so.

8. How right he is? Right about what?

The man can't even spell!

10. Here's a good resource....

This guy has been spending a fair amount of time breaking down BecKKK's nonsense: http://www.glenn-beck-sucks.com/

12. Hard to get a synopsis of such a prolific liar, but Media Matters

... is a reliable source.

Follow the numerous links (highlighted in blue at their site) that will be a good start at least:

13. Email "Activia" and "Carbonite.com" because they still advertise with this FREAK.

I love the taste of Activia yogurt but will switch brands if they continue to support Glenn Beck. :thumbsdown:

14. quoting Glenn Beck he is "an alcoholic" and a "dirtbag"

15. Anyone To Whom He Is Not Apparently Mentally Disturbed...

...is not going to come to understand it.
