Glenn Beck's "The Rant" Must Watch! Obama caught Fibbing about Earmarks

I love this..



He blasts everyone.

He nailed Michael Steele and all Republicans...and YOU.

He called out Congressmen on the EARMARKS.

Blasted Obama LIEING about earmarks.

He flamed just about everyone it seemed and to be honest I enjoyed it.

Our government is a joke.

It was great and the sad thing is..he's right.

We are letting this country slip away.

I agree with everything he says. I think the govt has screwed us more than we can ever possibly realize. We as a people have failed in keeping these people in check because in reality, we always thought that they were the best equipped to handle most of our problems, we were wrong.
The sad part about this realisation is that the people WONT do anything about it, I mean, how could they? They have never had to deal with these problems before and would be quite inept to handle it now. The govt knows this, and thats why they continue on doing what they do the best, screw us over. What can we do? In all reality. How could we get the people moving forward? How ?

David, im starting to wonder if your actually Beck's public relation spokesman. He seems to be the source of all your postings.

Amazing. what is really pathetic is that OBAMA and BIDEN both have earmarks in the bill just passed. What hypocrites they are.
On another thread, I posted the fact that the Democrats have figured out how to stop earmarks and other abominable practices. The just REDEFINE everything so that their actions don't meet the new definitions. This is the realization of George Orwell's novel 1984, with the introduction of NEWSPEAK.

en.wikipedia.org...

Newspeak is a fictional language in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. In the novel, it is described as being "the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year". Orwell included an essay about it in the form of an appendix[1] in which the basic principles of the language are explained. Newspeak is closely based on English but has a greatly reduced and simplified vocabulary and grammar. This suits the totalitarian regime of the Party, whose aim is to make any alternative thinking — "thoughtcrime", or "crimethink" in the newest edition of Newspeak — or speech impossible by removing any words or possible constructs which describe the ideas of freedom, rebellion and so on. One character says admiringly of the shrinking volume of the new dictionary: "It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words."

What we are seeing is the realization of a combination of "1984" and "Brave New World". The politicians today don't even have any original thoughts. They are just taking the script from those two books.
Brave New World:
en.wikipedia.org...

The novel opens in London in the "year of our Ford 632" (AD 2540 in the Gregorian Calendar). In this world, the vast majority of the population is unified under The World State
...
All members of society are conditioned in childhood to hold the values that the World State idealizes.

The conditioning system eliminates the need for professional competitiveness; people are literally bred to do their jobs and cannot desire another. There is no competition within castes; each caste member receives the same food, housing, and soma rationing as every other member of that caste. There is no desire to change one's caste.

Called out Obama ON HIS OWN EARMARK..and then suddenly they are pulling his name out of it?

WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?

HMMM.....

It was nice to see him LIE on national television the other night. That's right...FLAT OUT LIE.

Fiscal Reponsibility? TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS OF NEW SPENDING IS A NEW AGE OF RESPONSIBILITY?

Are they all smoking crack?

Cripes.

Thanks for posting the clip. Starred and flagged.

I agree with Beck. We should expect this sort of behavior from liberals. It's the two-faced "Republicans" that make me want to True conservatives need to run for the offices currently held by the neo-conservatives. I'm so tired of RINOS. Until the Republican Party decides to kick the RINOS to the curb, they will not regain any power in Washington. Although I'm a card carrying Republican and even an officer within the Federation of Republican Women organization in my state and community, I'm thinking more and more that we need a 3rd party and the Constitution Party is drawing me in.

We have to Get our Voice out

The Politicians have no issues with doing this... why? because they get away with it 98% of the time.. they have lost touch with the people they are supposed to represent..

Power Corrupts.... and it has corrupted just about all of them...

We can sit on our computer desks and talk about it but what will this accomplish? we need to as a country make a statement.. the question is how? we need to do this as soon as possible...

Glenn beck is a neocon mouth piece, the entire fox news broadcast is a neocon mouthpiece and always has been. How convenient for them to rebrand themselves as something other than GOP and start again into the same cycle where 10years from now that very brand will be tainted and you folks will once again be distancing yourselves from.

Different cover, same animal david.

Bamma's back peddling only makes it look worse,lol. What this clip shows is that Bamma is not a "breath of fresh air" in politics, just the Same old Same ole

I consider earmarks to be some form of abuse of power. I never really understand why people just let that happen and seems powerless about it. It's borderline criminal (corruption) activity, in my opinion.

However I have to caution you though, I don't think Glen is neutral, there might be an ulterior motive behind this.

reply to post by Jazzyguy


I must have an ulterior motive as well as he seems to shadow many of my opinions..although certainly not all, and this was way before I ever started watching his show.

To Southern Guardian:

Do you honestly think things are going to be as they are now in 10 years?

Be honest. What do you think it's going to look like in 4? How about 8?

I wanted to start a threat about this as well; at least you have the technology to do it right so, thanks for that.

I watched this tonight and it brought me to tears - I was riveted. I was actually shouting in my kitchen agreeing with him. First off, what is a liberal like me doing watching Fox of all things and secondly, I'm agreeing with Glen Beck. It was an amazing program - I believe he said he was going to do a live show later at 3am (that's odd but, I'm a nightowl.)

Now, if you take a look at this post, you'll see me taking responsiblity for my vote and some commentary about what us liberals didn't know when we voted.

www.abovetopsecret.com...'

I feel as if I need to go to IUPUI and talk to a political scientist. I'm confused and concerned. Ah yes, some liberals probably think socialism is a path to utopia but isn't it in fact a step before communism? Please, someone advise me on this.

We've always done well finanacially in the past. This last year things have most certainly become more challenging and for the first time since I was in my 20s, struggling to pay the bills. But ya know what, we pay em. I am fraked off that I have to pay for other peoples irresponsibility! Now, I have sympathy for those who lost their jobs but I have a sneaking suspicion that the bulk of these peeps were out living it up and buying houses that they knew darn well they couldn't afford, then went out to dinner. Yeah, when we went to buy our home in 2001 they tried to give us a loan we were not comfortable with and we said NO. That's called personal responibility.

Now, if this is coming from a liberal - I can't even imagine how the right is feeling. Yikes!

The sad part about this realisation is that the people WONT do anything about it,

The more people that are unemployed...the better the chance for this to happen. Unemployment is only going to continue to rise..because it has too.

They've got to do their best to keep us compliant and obedient...keep us working...so we don't see what is really happening and to keep us from really having the time and manpower to do anything about it.

People will do something about it...I honestly think so...I just don't know how long it will take.

There you go, shoot the messaenger.
Would you please explain how your rant about Beck and Fox has anything to do with the earmarks that are in the bill, earmarks that Obama said he would ELIMINATE if elected.
Your partisanship is EXACTLY the reason that this country is in a mess. Stick by the party regardless of what they do, and attack anyone or anything that questions the party. Yup, just what the NWO and Brave New Worlders want.

reply to post by ProfEmeritus


I know so terribly im "sorry", I just frown at the individuals here who make every attempt to distance themselves from the GOP hacks and the neoconservatives who brought upon this mess, but then continue to spread their messages and believe the garbage they say. It just doesnt make any sense to me.

Glenn beck "blasting", limbaugh "blasting" conservative talk show hosts accusing democrats for lying... I mean seriously its really nothing new. I mean I find it insulting to the deny ignorance community here when theres always some individual getting his information off ideological bias hacks and turning it into something significant.

Glenn beck thinks Obama is "lying", is this suppose to be news? Seriously? What limbaugh thinks Obamas an elite? news?? significant? You folks complain about the liberal media, these individuals are no different, and yet you continue to praise their propaganda messages meanwhile in the back you complain about media bias. I mean honestly can we go up a level?

And I'll say it again, these individuals distancing themselves from the GOP, these conservatives, are no different from those who outright supported the unconstitutional acts of the prior administration.

Id love to see a seperate conservative party become established from the GOP... 10 years down the track these same individuals and others will be making excuses and distancing themselves from that very party. The issue with the GOP goes beyond name brand, it is the voters who make the party what it is. The voters putting down the party itself is further hypocritical and shows little change.

You could not have possibly watched or listened to that video. Sad really. You are in a Parties hip pocket. You did not even notice he attacked both Parties I'll bet.
