Soros backed group tries to paint Beck as anti-semite again

This is rich. The right calls foul when the left reacts angerly to the right's bigotry. This reminds me of the scenario where the bully continuously provokes and then cries foul when the victim swings back in rage. The bullies are of course the right wing talking heads.

Lets listen to Glenn Beck mock Obama's daughter....

Keep telling yourself that...



You mean let's listen to Glenn Beck being taken out of context by the left as usual.



He wasn't mocking Obama's daughter, he was mocking Obama's story about his daughter asking why he couldn't just plug the hole. Considering the age of Obama's kids, I find Obama's story to be dubious too. His kids aren't 2-5 years old.



First Beck didn't hear about the man's pets being in the home until after the broadcast. Second, as sad as this sounds if it hadn't been for the pets, I would have to agree with Beck on the firefighters issue. The man wasn't paying for services of the fire department, if the firemen had acted to handle the blaze they would be telling everyone else it was okay not to pay to support the Firestation. So there is a valid argument on Beck's part.



Not even going to bother watching at this point, I'm getting quite frankly disgusted with how low the left is going. This song and dance has been played so many times nobody in their right mind would believe the left at this point.



Didn't I previously find this was seriously taken completely out of context before?

Only the last video was taken out of context (I didn't realize it right away so I apologize for that). None the less, I still can't understand what he's talking about on that show. All his hysteria about "wolfs in sheeps clothing" and closeted Marxist revolutionaries is pretty bizarre considering how dubious and weak his actual evidence is. It's just like his Obama-Soros-Petrobras conspiracy, a big steaming pile of crock to anyone who understands basic logic and critical thinking.

As for the other three videos, nothing was taken out of context. You can lie and say they are out of context but they clearly aren't.

In the first video Obama's daughter is clearly being mocked on the show. All the giggling at the phrase "plug the hole" in reference to Obama and his daughter demonstrates a pretty sick mind. It sounds like something you'd hear on a a Howard Stern show.

My problem with the second video has nothing to do with Becks opinion, it has to do with the fact that someone on his show is childishly mocking the accent/speech of a man who just lost his entire home, along with all his material possessions and pets. Again, something I would expect from Howard Stern, not from a self-described political commentator.

The third video doesn't warrant any further comment since even you can't defend it.

Getting how large some are defining hatred toward USA and Israel, I don't consider that to be relevant.


If that not enough to be a violation of freedom of speech and a act of Tyranny. Then what do it take?

I would say all of them were taken out of context, and if you bothered to do your research and not simply take left wing pundits word for things, you'd find that Beck isn't out there. Seriously, if he was really that out there, Fox News would have taken him off the air.



Video 1 is out of context if we go off your interpretation of it. He wasn't mocking Obama's daughter, he was mocking Obama's story about the oil spill fiasco in the Gulf. In laymen's terms he was implying the President was being dishonest with the American people concerning how much attention he was giving the Gulf Oil Spill.



There are two ways you can take it, either mocking the daughter or mocking Obama. He was mocking President Obama and the story he told us concerning how much attention he was giving the Gulf Oil Spill.



Okay that part is a little tacky, however his point about the man not paying his bills is a valid one.



More of I'm not even going to bother listening to it I highly doubt Beck was seriously threatening Moore's life. You would have a better case of Bill O'Reilly being in a movie smacking a guy playing Michael Moore upside the head.



I have to agree with Tollorin, unless something else comes out about Soros where he actually commits a crime it would by tyrannical to attempt to imprison or deport him.

Ah, context, the perennial excuse of right-wingers defending the indefensible. Reasonably long unedited segments of video and/or audio can't be called "out of context."


Your interpretation is a huge stretch. He made a comment about the President's daughters being uneducated.


Listen to it right now and then tell me with a straight face that you aren't full of crap.

@ Orwell

If you don't even watch Beck, how the heck do you know what the man is thinking.

Okay listening to it, my question is where the heck is the rest of it, if you listen to the tone it sounds like there was something more that changes the entire content cause it sounded like he was being sarcastic.

An example of how the left took something else out of context deliberately is found here:
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/did-gle ... -the-head/

Here is Beck talking about beating liberals over the head with shovels and shooting people in the head.

http://www.dailykos.com/tv/w/002095/

Proof that this guy is a bully and a bigot who deserves to have his fat face caved in.

None of the examples you found of left-wingers saying they wished someone would die were sarcastic or in jest, but any such example from Beck is clearly just a joke?

You're hopeless.

Beck-foonery topic

Beck is always putting his ass in his mouth.

Guilted cage topic

I have no idea why Mr. Soros has to feel guilt over anything. I have no idea why Inuyasha is interested in Mr. Soros' guilt or lack of it. Mr. Beck is a very in your-face-type, and likes to experience others' feelings vicariously. This is a sort of fetish for him, and not an uncommon human trait. That he employes this trait in a journalistic setting makes it a tad creepy. There is an agenda here--of course Mr. Beck is interested in ratings. Tabloid TV needs the ad revenue. And he wants to be a re-visionary, to see into the past, and right all sorts of wrongs there. A safe haven, no doubt.

Time to turn off Mr. Beck. Then he can forward his resume to Al-Jazeera.

Riiiigghhhhhttt.....

Seriously, I just post up an article about how sources like the Daily Kos will deliberately take Glenn Beck out of context to paint him as a lunatic, and you turn around and use the very same sources I just discredited.



Does NPR's firing of Juan Williams ring any bells? Also, I'm sure some of the left wing talking heads are taken out of context, however they usually aren't.

I've already posted one blatent example of left wing sources being dishonest putting it mildly when it came to Glenn Beck.

@ sartresue

Have you even watched Glenn Beck or are you just parroting what a bunch of talking heads told you about him? I'm inclined to believe it is the latter.

@ marshall

You say you have the right to lecture anyone about civility and yet you pmed someone saying you wanted to beat them with a shovel. Excuse me, but that is out of line.

Talking asses topic

Now what prompted you to make a remark like that, Inuyasha? More conspiracy mutterings like your American Idol?

You may be as inclined as you want, with your own slanted ideas.

Actually it was very easy to come to that conclusion, if you actually watched his program, you'd notice he often sources things, additionally he uses people's own words to prove his point. Additionally if he was really that far out there, Obama wouldn't actually be afraid of what Glenn Beck is going to say next. Like how he had Shirley Sherrod FIRED without getting the full story because he was afraid it was going to end up on Glenn Beck's program.

For the record, Glenn Beck didn't cover the Shirley Sherrod situation until a day later after he had some information as to what the heck was going on. Glenn Beck, immediately sided with Ms. Sherrod saying she should not have been fired for statements taken out of context. Gee, didn't you say he is just a sensationalist out to smear liberals whenever he could, if that was the case why did he wait to get the facts on Ms. Sherrod before he opened his mouth. I guess its cause unlike most of the talking heads on the left, he actually has some integrity.



Well when the results of research I've done pretty much lines up with what Glenn Beck is saying, and I wanted the results to be the guy was nuts, I'm going to go with the results I got. I can't help the fact that you take what Olberman, Matthews, Maddow, etc. say at face value without doing your own research.

Sorry, but the audio is real. Do you really think Daily Kos faked Glenn Beck's voice saying those things?

Actually, the right has no integrity. Here's the real story.

Andrew Breitbart (a right-wing editor of the Drudge report who has also written editorials in the Wall Street Journal and Washinton Times) was the one who spread the out-of-context statements smearing Shirley Sherrod in the first place. All the right-wing bloggers subsequently ate it up like the little pea-brained lemmings they are and Fox News posted the story on it's web site. Bill O'Reilly, Hannity, etc... were all calling her an anti-white racist. I'm sure Beck would have called her a racist as well had the NAACP not responded by publishing the uncut video showing everyone that her words had been taken out of context.

Also, it was the incessant harassment from right-wingers after Andrew Breitbard published the out-of-context video clip on his web site that caused Shirley Sherrod to resign. The right is responsible for f*****g up her career by lying and spreading disgusting smears. Andrew Breitbart is a lying sack of s**t. Yet I've seen you use him as a source.

I'm asking where the rest of the audio is? They have been known to pull bits and pieces of what Glenn Beck has said to try to smear him in the past. Case and point the idea of Glenn Beck calling for people to shoot liberals, they actually got that from pulling bits and pieces from when Beck said that liberals would have to shoot him dead before he'd shut up about the founding fathers.

So at this point, I wouldn't trust Daily Kos to give me the time of day accurately, let alone their latest attempt to smear Glenn Beck.



Somehow I doubt it would be the real story, given your track record and one would argue pathological hatred of Conservatives.



Actually, the NAACP kinda shot themselves in the foot when they finally coughed up the video, which for the record Bretbart asked NAACP for the complete tape and even mentioned on his site where he posted the video that he had, that it wasn't the complete tape and implied he was still trying to get the rest of it.

O'Reilly ran with the story and got burned by it, can't remember what Hannity did cause at that point Sherrod was forced to resign. Glenn Beck told his staff when he first learned of the Sherrod situation that they were not going to air it until he knew what the heck was going on.

On Monday night, O'Reilly had played the clip posted by conservative activist Andrew Breitbart on his site BigGovernment.com. O'Reilly led his Wednesday program by criticizing some of Sherrod's language but acknowledging his own mistake: "I owe Ms. Sherrod an apology for not doing my homework . . . and for not putting her remarks into proper context." While the excerpt showed Sherrod, an African American, telling the NAACP in a speech that she had discriminated against a white farmer as a nonprofit aid officer 24 years ago, the full speech made clear she was saying she had overcome that racial instinct and learned an important lesson.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... 06708.html

However, Glenn Beck actually defended Ms. Sherrod:
The administration's concern about Beck stems in part from his campaign last year that prompted the resignation of White House environmental official Van Jones over divisive remarks -- a controversy that some news organizations acknowledged they were too slow to cover. Ironically, Beck defended Sherrod on Tuesday, saying that "context matters" and he would have objected if someone had shown a video of him at an AA meeting saying he used to pass out from drinking but omitting the part where he says he found Jesus and gave up alcohol.

Edit:

Found an additional item of interest:

But for all the chatter -- some of it from Sherrod herself -- that she was done in by Fox News, the network didn't touch the story until her forced resignation was made public Monday evening, with the exception of brief comments by O'Reilly. After a news meeting Monday afternoon, an e-mail directive was sent to the news staff in which Fox Senior Vice President Michael Clemente said: "Let's take our time and get the facts straight on this story. Can we get confirmation and comments from Sherrod before going on-air. Let's make sure we do this right."

Sherrod may be the only official ever dismissed because of the fear that Fox host Glenn Beck might go after her. As Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack tried to pressure her into resigning, Sherrod says Deputy Undersecretary Cheryl Cook called her Monday to say "do it, because you're going to be on 'Glenn Beck' tonight." And for all the focus on Fox, much of the mainstream media ran with a fragmentary story that painted an obscure 62-year-old Georgian as an unrepentant racist.
