Frantic caller complains about Newt bashing

One caller took issue with the amount of time Glenn is spending bashing Newt Gingrich — the call spirals out of control because the caller just couldn’t come to grips with the fact that Newt is a progressive. She refused to listen to anything Glenn had to say – how did that strategy work out for the caller?

Read the transcript of the call below:

GLENN: Hang on. We have Trish on the phone on Line 11 from San Antonio saying pretty much ‑‑

PAT: See?

GLENN: She’s very upset at me. Go ahead, Trish.

CALLER: Oh, no, Glenn, I’m not upset at you. I have been, I have been the last week or so.

GLENN: Okay, but you’re not?

PAT: Me, too.

GLENN: Go ahead.

CALLER: No, no, no. Well, my first question really, Glenn, is, you know, if you are going to promote Santorum, why have you spent 2/3 of the program going after Newt and giving Romney a pass on his progressivism?

PAT: We haven’t given him ‑‑ we played ‑‑ we played the audio of it.

GLENN: We played the audio of it.

CALLER: Yes, Pat, yes, Pat, and then you made executions, oh, it was in 1994.

PAT: No, no. All of these Newt things were in the past, too. I just wanted to make sure that everybody knew this wasn’t yesterday.

CALLER: Right, right. But we’ve heard two weeks worth of how progressive Newt is and we’ve heard nothing ‑‑

GLENN: Okay. Hang on just a second.

CALLER: Hold on. Hold on.

GLENN: No, wait, wait, wait, wait.

CALLER: Nothing about the gun control, nothing about the liberal (inaudible) in Massachusetts.

PAT: The gun control? Of what?

STU: Talking about Mitt.

PAT: Oh, Mitt. Okay.

CALLER: Listen. Listen.

PAT: This is a Mitt thing? Okay, well, let me ask you something real quick. Can I ask you something real quick?

CALLER: Okay. Sure, sure.

PAT: Why do you excuse everything from Gingrich, why are you doing the Gingrich thing to ‑‑

GLENN: You don’t even know ‑‑ wait, wait, wait. You don’t even know. Are you for Newt Gingrich?

PAT: Of course she is. Of course she is.

GLENN: We don’t know.

CALLER: Actually, no. I don’t have a horse in the race. Hold on. I was a Herman Cain supporter. When he got, I donated to Michele Bachmann. When they got out, I don’t have anybody that represents me.

GLENN: Okay.

CALLER: I think Santorum did a great job last night.

GLENN: I think he did, too. We said that several times over the broadcast.

CALLER: ‑‑ promoting Santorum. Where are the clips of that?

GLENN: We’re not ‑‑ we didn’t ‑‑ hang on just a second. Hang on just a second. Hang on just a second. We’re not ‑‑ we’re not here to be anyone’s PR person. I’ve said that to Rick Santorum, I’ve said that to the audience. I’m not here to ‑‑ I’m not here to get people to vote for Rick Santorum. I’ve told you who I’m for.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Who I’m for. I’m for Rick Santorum. That’s my guy. If I had to vote today, I’d vote for Rick Santorum. I wouldn’t vote for Newt, I wouldn’t vote for Romney. I in the end ‑‑

CALLER: I got it. I got it.

GLENN: In the end if it’s Newt Gingrich action I’m going to have a really hard time voting for him but it will probably be the Middle East that would make me vote for him over Newt ‑‑ over Barack Obama. If that’s the choice, I… I really would want to vote for my shoe or my shoehorn or my phone or a lamp, but I’d probably do it for Newt.

CALLER: You know ‑‑

STU: Never vote for Obama, that ‑‑

GLENN: I would never vote for Obama.

CALLER: I’ll say this, and I have spent more time defending Newt.

GLENN: Why?

CALLER: And I don’t even agree with him.

GLENN: Why?

PAT: Why are you defending him?

CALLER: People are unfairly attacking him.

PAT: We are not unfairly.

GLENN: How are we unfair ‑‑ wait a minute. How are we unfair? Because let’s get this out.

PAT: We’re playing his own words!

GLENN: Yeah. Let’s get this out because if it’s unfair, we’ll admit it right now and we’ll correct it.

CALLER: Look, I had gone ‑‑ you know, when you started first playing things, because I don’t, I don’t really have a candidate that I feel represents me, I have been doing research. And I went straight to their voting records and to their policy records. And when I went and looked at that, I found that Mitt Romney is basically ‑‑

GLENN: Wait, wait.

CALLER: ‑‑ a clone.

GLENN: Wait a minute.

CALLER: No, no, no.

GLENN: Hang on. We were talking ‑‑

CALLER: ‑‑ to Mitt Romney, okay?

GLENN: I am not a Mitt Romney fan! I’m not a Mitt Romney fan!

PAT: I don’t know how many times we have to say that.

GLENN: I don’t know how many times I have to say that. I don’t know what it is that you make ‑‑

STU: Amazing.

GLENN: You know some of the callers that come in ‑‑ hang on just a second. I’ve let you talk. Some of these callers that call in and continually insist that we’re Mitt Romney fans really just piss me off.

PAT: The guy won’t even come on the show!

GLENN: Yeah. I haven’t talk to the guy! The guy won’t come on the show! The guy didn’t ‑‑ the guy didn’t come to Israel, was one of the only ones that said he wouldn’t come to Israel. I mean, what do you want me to say? I’m against his healthcare policy. I don’t buy into his healthcare excuse. I do buy into his excuse on his flip‑flop of abortion. I don’t think that one’s a flip‑flop. I do think the guy is a big government progressive. I don’t think he’s a Theodore Roosevelt or Wilson ‑‑ what was it?

PAT: Realpolitik Wilsonian.

GLENN: Realpolitik Wilsonian. I don’t think he even thinks of it that way. I think he’s right on Israel. I think Newt is right on Israel and the Middle East. I think Mitt gets the Middle East. I think Newt gets the Middle East. I think Newt is an absolute progressive to the core, knows exactly what it means, knows progressivism exactly the same way I do. He has studied the history. He is a historian for Freddie and Fannie. He knows. He is also not a small businessman. He is not a bus‑ ‑‑ he’s not ‑‑ he doesn’t do business! Hang on. You didn’t even listen to a word, damn word I said. I’m hanging up on you you Trish. You didn’t even listen. You were talking .

CALLER: No. Listen to me, Glenn.

GLENN: You were talking.

CALLER: I’m trying to explain to you why people keep calling on Mitt Romney.

GLENN: I’m not going to listen. Hang up the phone, please. I’m not going to listen to you, Trish. If you won’t listen to me, why should I listen to you? This is the problem with our country. This is the problem.

STU: I don’t understand it. I mean, we have covered Mitt Romney’s bad policies for not ‑‑

GLENN: How many, for not ‑‑

STU: Years.

GLENN: ‑‑ this time.

STU: Since 2007.

GLENN: Last time, too.

STU: Yeah. And 2007 we talked about it.

PAT: And that’s the thing. We haven’t talked about Romney as much because everybody knows where Romney is.

STU: Right. That’s the simple formula.

PAT: You’ve already made up your mind on Romney.

GLENN: 24%, 24%, give or take, depending on where you are in the country, that like Mitt Romney. I have not met the person who’s like, man ‑‑

PAT: I love Mitt Romney.

GLENN: Okay, no, I take that back. I’ve met Ann Romney.

STU: Yeah.

PAT: And she loves him.

GLENN: And she loves him.

PAT: She admits that?

GLENN: She loves ‑‑ she admits it.

PAT: Because I haven’t even heard her say it.

GLENN: She’s going to vote for him. Got it. I don’t know anybody who is the passionate Mitt Romney person.

PAT: I don’t, either.

GLENN: So why do you ‑‑

STU: We’re not talking ‑‑

GLENN: The passionate one here is the Newt Gingrich supporters that go crazy.

PAT: Who completely dismiss everything we’ve said about everything he has said about himself.

GLENN: Yeah.

PAT: But the same thing on Romney, I don’t get it.

GLENN: Tell me where it’s unfair to quote a man. Don’t you understand what you’re saying? The people who are saying this, you’re saying the same thing George Soros says. When I quote George Soros ‑‑

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: They’re just being mean to him. No, I’m quoting him.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: I’m playing the audio ‑‑

PAT: You’re bashing him.

GLENN: ‑‑ of Barack Obama. “You’re just bashing him.” I’m playing his audio. Wait, what point is it not true? You loved it! You loved it when I did it to the progressives on the left. But when we start talked about the progressives on the right, it’s strange how the media, the right media doesn’t like that. How the ‑‑ how the Republicans don’t like that. All of a sudden, “Oh, no, no, no, no. Shhh.” Look, you either believe in principles or you don’t. Now, I happen to be a very big anti‑progressive guy. I think there are people who say they’re progressive, “You know, look, I’m progressive.” We had Adam Carolla on. I gave him the same ‑‑ I gave him ‑‑ give him the same benefit of the doubt, and maybe I’m wrong, as I do with Newt Gingrich ‑‑ or I mean with Mitt Romney. I’d like to ask Mitt Romney about his progressivism, but he never accepts our invitation. Why do you think that’s happening?

    Glenn plays the words of Newt back, Newts own words, and some people refer to that as Newt Bashing. Newt is a progressive and a very dangerous man if he gets into the  White House, and if Romney will not come on Glenns show to face the music, what indeed is going on then?

    Huntsman. If given the choice of Huntsman + Democratic Congress or Obama + Republican Congress I’d pick Huntsman-DemCon.  I’m totally cool with Huntsman being President, and think he might be one of the best we’d ever have on foreign policy (I kinda want Obama to make him Secretary of State since Clinton’s stepping down regardless of result); I just wouldn’t trust him to veto the stuff a Republican Congress would pass. He is my favorite Republican. He supports civil unions and believes addressing climate is an important issue (obviously things he wasn’t so keen on mentioning during this race). He had something like an 80% approval rating in Utah including somewhere around 50% of Democrats when re-elected governor and even Utah Democrats want him to run for Hatch’s seat. Even now Democrats in Utah have mostly high praise for him even as Republicans in Utah have mostly aligned behind Romney.  Back in 2009 after the election, I think it was David Plouffe who said that the only person who scared him for 2012 was Huntsman because of his appeal among moderates and independents. The Obama team then sent him to China, giving him that “worked for Obama” stain that probably hurt him in the campaign.

    Of the four remaining… I don’t think any of them are progressive, though Romney was a former holder of “my favorite Republican” status back in his Governor days so uh… take that how you will.

  • http://goo.gl/DvRNm Right Fielder

    When you get a chance, compare notes with Debra Medina.

    The joke is on Glenn’s audience. He doesn’t really care about conservative values, or the Constitution, or the Mercury Astronauts, or…

    …he just likes making money.  Actually, I respect him for that, but he could have chosen something less important to self-deprecate rather than his character.

    It’s becoming painful to watch a brother whiz it all away.

  • Lemmingsrnotusdamnit

    The problem with your logic is that Newt considers himself, and is, a historian. People who are true historians, not left-wing ideologues like many in our universities, are not supposed to look at history like a partisan hack. As a historian, and a Conservative, myself, I can tell you that there is nothing Newt has said that I consider outrageous from a historical perspective.

    He is simply providing historical analysis from a non-partisan standpoint. It doesn’t mean he is a leftist or Progressive in the sense that Roosevelt or Wilson were at all. Beck is turning into McCarthy. It’s sad, and he is losing credibility fast.

    i think what listeners are forgetting is that Glenn is neither republican nor democrat. he is anti-progressive. he’s exposing progressives at their core and too many are taking it as bashing the republican who can defeat Obama. he’s saying it simply. he would rather vote for his shoe then any of the other choices between Newt,Mitt or Obama. don’t be angry at him because he’s not for your guy, be angry at your guy because he’s progressive. Newt is the most progressive of the 2 (if that’s even possible) and he’s exposing that fact.

    There is a big problem with your statement. Joe McCarthy’s list, which I was told in school went to far and had non-commie spies on it, turned out to be verified by a Soviet area document released by the Russians after the USSR collapsed. Joe McCarthy actually identified all the Soviet Spies working in the state department.

    Nice theory, but as election day draws closer, it’s all too obvious Romney has little chance, if any, of beating Obama. He’s a squish. RINO. Sad stuff.

    Obvious. O’Reilly disagrees with Beck. That simple. One thing that Billy O and Beck have in common; they’re both getting progressively fluffier bank accounts at the expense of an ever-growing multitude of obama-haters.

  • Lemmingsrnotusdamnit

    And he also smeared a bunch of people who weren’t.

    That’s the point.

    You can’t justify bad deeds by referring to good deeds. There is such a thing called “going too far”, and it usually ruins all the good someone might do.

  • Kirk Weisler

    Perhaps the reason Mitt Romney won’t come on is because
    the militant Mormonphobes who are so filled with fear and misinformation about
    Mormons that they spew fantastical Mormon conspiracy scenarios and anit-Mormon
    rhetoric. They are so convinced that Mormons are evil that even when Glen Beck
    criticizes Romney directly.. they claim “Glen is secretly for Romney”
    ???? Really?

    If Romney did talk to Beck…what would the headline say in the
    Mainstream Media…. ” Mormons Beck and Romney talk Politics and
    Power” or Romney Gets Props from Fellow Mormon Beck. The bias of the media
    fed by the ignorant bigotry of hate filled anti-mormon so called Christians…
    prevent Romney and Beck from having any connection. These are just my
    thoughts…. I think it’s unfair. Beck does such a wonderful job reaching
    across all lines of faith….but the insecure and self righteous still can’t do
    anything but call him names and disrespect his faith instead of just living
    more fully their own.

  • Kirk Weisler

    Glen is doing what he has always been doing.  Trying to get America to wake up and see the truth, get smart, and prepare for the future.  Newt is an undeniable progressive.
    http://vimeo.com/6445068  

  • Lioness

    Great point. Talk is just that. Romney admitted to mandating health care for goodness sakes, and still supports it. Newt takes the time to learn every thing before deciding his actual course of action. It can be confusing because he thinks out loud some times. But I get it. Actions speak louder than words, his record of actual accomplishments are being overlooked by Glenn, who uses various sound bites from interviews to explain his “progressiveness”.

  • mdkrause

    I think Santor was the best last night,  And this caller isn’t all wrong,  If you can’t see an obvious favor towards Mitt there is something wrong. He has favored Mitt for sometime. I just have to read and watch the videos of Glen hanging up on people or telling them to throw away his books and what I found really disturbing was the quote ” haven’t I influenced you enough by now”  All in the defence of Mitt. I would say that is favoring 1 candidate. Now that doesn’t mean Mitt isn’t the best guy, but people do have the right to their opinions don’t they?  Glen has the right to support anyone he wants to, but please don’t say your not supporting 1 candidate more than another. 
    Glen is better with a chalk Board then letting people have their own opinion, and that is sad to me.
    And what’s with the bleached air and red skin. Looks like he had a bleach job and skin peel?
    Okay let the bashing and name calling begin.

    She didn’t actually get to say anything, so I don’t think she should be worried.

Newt Gingrich’s ‘journey..like yourself…isn’t a ‘quitter’..& it’s his ‘DEEDS NOT WORDS’ of getting the CONSERVATIVES back in a position of accomplishments..Starting with President Reagan’s having to work with Tip O’Neil in a Democratic controlled House & Senate & again..in similar circumstances to balance the budget 4 times in the Clinton democratic controlled Congress..I read a comment by a South Carolinian that Newt’s  an SOB..but he’s the SOB we NEED to get rid of “Pinocchio” & Newt’s past ‘baggage’ don’t mean SQUAT…Like your quote of George Washington’s.. it’s “DEEDS..NOT WORDS”. I’m a staunch annual GBTV member..but disagree TOTALLY with your ‘RANTING & BASHING” of  Newt!!

You are correct on one thing, Newt isn’t quitting the same things he has always done.

    I`m not too excited about the United States being Run by the Mormon Church, not that I have anything against the Mormon Faith,the “Mormons” have`nt done anything too me;  It has`nt escaped me that Mitt Romen and Genn Beck are both of the Mormon Fauth and both give the Mormon Church 10% of their intire Wealth every Year! In Romneys` case that would be approxatemately(?) 35 Million Dollars A Year! I find It incredible that Glenn Beck is so silent on that Issue ! I`m sure that Glenn`s Tithing is atleast a 7 figure digit or more ! The Exstream Bias towards Newt Gingrich is just a distraction! We need too be looking at ALL the players in this Deal because ALL of the Candidates Have an Agenda !! In all my life have`nt I seen This Country so split and devided like we are right now.

    Your right EIPzee, I would have no problrm if Glenn spent a similiar amount of time on Romney’s liberal leanings. But it has become more evident that the goal is to take out Gingrich at all cost’s. I can not intellectually understand how Glenn can find in his heart to settle for Romney if Santoreum does not become the nominee, but will will not find the same grace for Gingrich. If one looks at Gingrich and Romney’s record, beyond a shadow of a doubt in terms of their records, Gingrich more conservative. Perhaps Mormons are Mormons first, or maybe in Glenn’s case second!!!

    Thank God you, and the majority of the people on this site are thinking for themselves and drawing their own conclusions.  The right conclusions at that.

    I was beginning to think that conservatives had become zombies.

    I think Glenn’s tactics will backfire.  Glenn is losing fans by the thousands as we speak because he has sacrificed being fair and sticking to the truth(what made him who he is).  Secondly Americans HATE, HATE, HATE, being Sold something, and HATE being told what to do and think.

    The more Glenn and Fox news tries to sell Americans Romney, the more Americans will look to the other candidates.

    yes you are right! thankyou! obama wants newt to get the noination, if newt gets it there sre so many points to attack about newt that obama’s minons are g oing to have a heyday attacking him, which willmake obama smeell like a rose and guess who wil get 4 more years??? that is what glenn means when he says that newt cannot beat obama> if you question this then email glenn and clarify it. again, the political cartoon shows the caricature of obaba with the hope expression on his face and under this picture  of hope it says “newt gets the nomination” i pisted about his last night but got the date wrong. it is the political cartoon for the idahostatesman.com on wednesday, january 25. what really strilkes me here is that it is like feeling sorry for the neighborhood bully becsue he has incriminating himself and eeryone just thinks HE is the victim. open your eyes, peeps, or we WILL have 4 more years of obama by default!

    Kirk, would you say Romney is a progressive as well? Or are you giving him a pass on his record of Romneycare or voting for Paul Tsongas, even though GHW Bush and Pat Bucannan were on the ballot.Is it not a red flag to you when when moderate to liberal Republicans such as McCain,Christie,Huntsman,Dole etc. are endorsing Romney? It appears that even George Soros is less concerned with a Romney Presidency as he would be a Santorum or Gingrich one. Again the only logical conclusion for Beck’s bias is Mormon connection. I’m not accusing, but just simply making an observation.

    At first I thought as  a Fox News viewer that Glenn Beck was “ousted” because of undue pressure on Fox Management from The Soros Crime Syndicate. Fox said, and GB said Glen was going to do his own thing. After reading the transcript of this call and realizing how incoherent Glenn Beck can really be, I am starting to wonder about the real reason why he left Fox. And no more O’Reilly/Beck Bold Fresh Tours?  When I heard that Beck had backed Michelle Bachman, who did not have a snowball’s chance on a hot summer day to win this nomination – or election, I started to back track in my opinion of Glenn Beck. Besides being un-electable, she came across as being a real nag. Imagine having a female like her in the White House on a daily basis! She would be on TV every week, telling people what to do! Nag, nag, nag!  Perhaps Glen Beck likes that kind of female, I just can’t stand them. Proverbs indicates it is better to live in the attic than in “the house” with a nagging woman, good riddens! Let’s keep her in the House in D.C. fighting for worthy causes as long as I don’t have to listen to her or see her, She’s good at that, you cannot take that away from her. I still can hear ringing in my ears her rhetorical, self absorbed, uncreative statement over and over and over again: I’m am the only candidate on this stage thatis a true conservative, over and over again. She is one of the most boring, negative, non-creative candidates I have ever experienced, and I cast my first vote back when “Ronnie” was running for the same office!
    Re: Gingrich, I would suggest to anyone owning a little bit of reason; has it occurred to you that Newt is disliked by not only Glenn Beck, but also by the Republican Establishment (Ed Rollins, Newt’s long time friend, one of Michelle Bachman’s campaign managers and also an original Reagan Republican, stated today categorically, “the Republican Establishment will never allow Newt to become the nominee!”), the leftwing media, the rightwing media, but every leftist liberal and Democrat that I have seen or heard of?  Take a look at “Fancy Nancy’s statement in a recent interview with Cain on CNN regarding his nomination – outright vicious!, she looks like a viper ready to strike!, I was just waiting for the forked tongue to come out:-), If they dislike him so strongly, and if Newt is so progressive according to Glenn Beck they should be in a similar place politically, no(?), I think the real reason he is so hated and trashed by so many (including a meek and mild Glenn Beck),  including many that worked with him 2 or 3 decades ago, is that being a leader that espouses change and insists on it, will be unpopular and hated by many. Look at my hero Ronald Reagan, He was hated by a slew of people, but he made significant changes to the American society for the better (I know, Glenn Beck is one of those that hate him as well!)
    I have found over the last 36 years I have been in this country, Americans have a hard time with intelligent reasoning when it comes to electing political leaders. That is why “Jimmy Who Carter” was voted in, why “Cowboy”Johnson and both the Bush’s got the nomination and won the elections, yeah Clinton was another one, even though he somewhat redeemed himself. An do I have to add “Curious George” presently in the White House? I wonder how many of you geniuses that are so wise with respect to Newt Gingrich voted Barry White aka Barack Obama into office, not using your head and reason! “As your friends are, so are you!” Ever heard that one! It is a biblical quote, Glenn.  I like Santorum, starting to like him better, but he is a”progressive as well, Glenn! No? What about his vote re: right to work?

    Get with it people, Glenn Beck is not the all in all, he was ousted as well:-). And “arch conservative” obnoxious Ann Coulter is in her own words, “totally a Romney supporter, yes, yes , yes”. So she is most likely Newt in the “demonic category”:-), him being a progressive and all…

  • steve land

    what???

  • steve land

    I would tend to agree with you, I have been supporting Newt Gingrich, I like his stated approaches to current problems we have. His intelligence caters to me, and can relate to many of the suggestions and ideas he’s got for solving our national problems. However, I am always looking for more input, the more I know, the better off I will be, and the better choice I will make..A slogan for a clothing store in NYC said, “An educated consumer is our best customer”,  it never left me since, I thought it was a great slogan, still is! Particularly when it comes to this political campaign. So I took some time out and followed the link  below. I think you should do the same, for your own sake and for all of us.Our problem is mot that we have too much knowledge, on the contrary. We can always make up our own mind. Take a look, and let me know what you think.

    EIPzee, I share your sentiment about Newt Gingrich, and have similar objections to Mitt Romney. I will certainly go to freedomworks.org and look at the arguments against Romney. I also took a look at  vimeo.com below Kirk Weisler’s comment. I would suggest you go there as well, there are some questions that are raised in the process that I will research further for myself now that I hae been there.
    Look, I have been a staunch supporter of Gingrich for a good while, I appreciate his solutions and I have supported him financially. But you should for the sake of being properly informed research both sides. I would be interested in your assessment after you been there.

    Saying Newt is a progressive does imply that Romney is not a progressive. Beck has exhausted himself saying he is not for Romney yet people like you keep popping up and saying he for Romney. What is wrong with you? He is not bashing Newt. He is realistically showing who Newt is. Be mad at Newt for wanting to be a progressive. Newt is the one that says he is a progressive. Beck is merely playing Newt’s own words.

    Absolutely pathetic…just look at the MSM national news each day.  They focus on and are laughing at the bashing by our own.supposedly right wing media.  It is sickening.  Glenn thinks he’s a real cool cat, a real “hip” guy, sophisticated. you name it…he’s a dang fool but i mostly blame the candidates themselves for bashing one another.  Newt said over a month ago, almost pleaded to not let this get dirty. Some of you will say Newt started the attacks on romney – nothing could be further from the truth. The ignorance and immaturity i’ve seen on some of the post proves america, including some of  Glenn’s followers are as dumb and stupid as the day is long.  Why would obama spend a penny to formulate an ad, all he has to do is show exerts from Glenn, the boney skeleton Ann Coulter, and a bunch of dumb, stupid, crooked inside establishment bunch of republicans themselves. Get used to Obama as he’ll probably have another 4 years in the WH – - way to go.  By the way, i liked Sarah Palin but didn’t think she was presidental material.  But i have much more respect for her after she is saying the same thing i’m saying now.  Ronald Reagan was so right – no republican should attack another republican.  The world is full of stupidity.  Republicans shot themselves in the foot.  Ignorance compounds ignorance

  • w. Parker

    So what do you propose, hand another 4 years to obama?  Stay home on election day?  There is something as taking words out of context too.  Newts accomplishments speak for themselves without any intrepatation of words and twisting of meaning by Glenn.  Three quarters of so called conservatives think, feel and call themselves conservatives but wouldn’t know the true meaning or can’t tell from the propaganda flowing our airwaves if it bit them on their behind

  • Lemmingsrnotusdamnit

    I’ve already seen it. It’s the same stuff. Cherry-Picking quotes, and not looking at the big picture. Newt considers himself a serious historian. When he is talking in an academic setting, where many of these quotes come from, he’s not coming at things from a partisan hack point of view.

    The most important facts to look at are what he did when he was in power. His record is clear. He legislated, voted and led as a Conservative the vast majority of the time on almost every issue of substance.

    There is no disputing that.

    Glenn, …you make and take away from your own arguement. 

    Do we move forward in mistrust because we have been seriously betrayed by our current leadership?  Or do we choose not to be victimized / terrorrized and shake it off. 
     We are all (each of us) good and bad…we change.  We learn from what we have gleened from our past experiences and use it all as a compass in moving forward.  I think there is ONE thing that makes us (each of us) more likely to do good moving forward and that would be how our Moral Compass is set.  We (each of us) are parts of a whole, the moral thing is not separated from the business thing or how we apply our accumulated knowledge.  The moral thing is the highest thing.  I came out of the gutter …what did Newt say I came out of the Lafollete progressive tradition….does that mean we still live where we CAME OUT OF or does it mean we have understanding of something because of where we came from.  It would be nice if you would give the whole counsel…you play a segment and I wonder what Newt’s entire explanation was.  That is Scary Glenn…you behaving as the lamestream media.

    Getting back to my opening statement, you are correct…the dems are not what they used to be. Who is, and especially after these last few years.   We aren’t living in the days of slavery to apply any past racist arguement.  Do we need someone who can sort and throw out any terrorists that may be roaming about our Nation…I think so.  It is all part of the border issue in a time of war.

    You can’t separate it.  We no longer know who is behind what  And that my friend is why Newt is getting such a hard time…He will get to the bottom of it and restore the things we used to depend on for our decision making.  It is … vital to restore integrity …for every reason that I can think of. So for now, we are learning about individuals moral compasses because, most all of the old standards…like polls are corrupted. It’s not all bad though, I think it is about time that we all develope a strong individual moral character and this is a perfect climate.  God knows exactly what He is doing!!

    Noneckdave, My point was going to be that we are stuck with these choices.  That Newt, Paul, and Santorum are all better than Romney.  I don’t think he’s FOR Romney, I think he’s anti-Newt…but he’s doing the rest of us a disservice, because we GET IT with Newt.  We get where he stands there.

    Romney stands a very good chance of becoming the Nominee and is the MOST dangerous of the four candidates, so it is incumbant upon Glenn, if he truely is a “progressive hunter” to make sure he exposes Romney to the extent that he’s gone after Newt. 

    It would also help, if he’s spend more time talking about the good things that Santorum brings to the table…or even Paul…or at least giving Newt a fair shake.

    The truth is that when you look at their actual records, you find out that Glenn is being a little dishonest.  I think his anti-newtness is personal for him, because it certainly isn’t very rational.

    He wouldn’t even let me talk about their records.  I wanted to talk about ALL of their records.

    Trish…Whatever Glenn is for, typically has been brutilized by the media.  Maybe this is exactly how it is supposed to be.
    Us, those he taught to do the homework, doing it and being the voices of America as we were always suppose to be. 
    You see, because in the end, Glenn can only vote once.  But it Will be the rest of us, who vote….if we do the homework, if we put in the time, ….we will come about a conviction that no man can change…and we too have a vote.

    Bad week for Gringrich. The Republican machine morphed into a  woodchipper this week , and threw him in head first. Maybe I’m biased, but Gringrich’s praise about Wilson and Roosevelt stemmed more from those men being viewed as contemporaries in leadership at difficult times in history,and not their policies.(Might be a stretch). Nobody has called  Glen out for his idolizing of Martin Luther King the same way. King had huge progressive and liberal ideology, but glenn has no problem separating that out from King’s fight for equal justice and  civil rights crusade.  Is Glenn hypocritical?

    a little off topic, but i need to vent this. i watched the debate in florida and couldn’t help but get sick to my stomach. first of all newt went off into space and talking about all of this spending on a new nasa program and making some pretty outlandish promises to the people of florida.(read: trying to buy their votes.) then mitt starts talking about spending as well. looked like a fricking bidding war with tax payer money. then the exchange between newt and mitt each trying to make the other one look bad in order to make themselves the better choice. i don’t want either one of these idiots. can’t we just once have a candidate try to win an election on their own merits rather than trying to make the public choose between the lessor of 2 evils? a flitter of hope came about when santorum piped up and asked the media to start asking questions that were important to the well being of the country. the crowd applauded and then wolfe went on with the same line of questioning(the crowd then booed) and newt stated he agreed with santorum. it was a perfect chance for mitt and ron to back that up but ron remained silent and mitt went into the line of questioning. dumba$$! and there we were again talking about meaningless accusations and who paid what or who made what. who cares! i, like probably most rational thinking people, would like to know how you are going to fix the country. once again the gop candidates get directed into this type of debate by the media. what they need to do is discuss with each other before the debate and decide that they will take control of the important matters and get their points out without the media directing it for them. okay, i feel better now and you may continue with your regularly scheduled program.

    I think it’s time you realized that because of you there is a large Tea Party PATRIOTIC movement and we are your core supporters.  This is no longer a 3rd rate NYC talk show with NYC humor, but a thoughtful opportunity.  YOU owe this woman a great apology.  The 3 little boys ganged up and not once did  you shut up long enough to hear her make her point which was ” IN HER OPINION, ALL YOU’VE DONE FOR 2 WEEKS is BASH NEWT”   (that is my opinion too.  INSTEAD you should have said:  This is what a Progressive is.. (list points)   THIS is why I think they are dangerous for USA.     But instead you just ranted about how you’d never vote for NEWT etc.   HE’S no ONE-WORLDER, GLENN et al,  he is a visionary like CHURCHILL….he has made great accomplishments for the CONSERVATIVE CAUSE  and he had great ideas to save AMERICA now…but you are thinking inside a tiny box.   YOU BLEW THIS ONE BIG time and I despise the SARCASM from Pat/Stu…might work on their silly 4th hour but this caller deserved better.

    Everyone has a right to oppose or support who they want – this is america.  My point that you failed to comprehend was i think it is stupid for a fellow republican candidate to publicly bash another republican candidate as if the other candidate were the long lost loyal nephew of Stalin or Mao.  One would get the impression from Glenn from the daily negative bashing of Newt that Newt should be deported from america for being an equivilant to a communist flasher who molests children.  ALL candidates deserve more respect than they’re getting from media and between themselves.  Yes, Newt has slid some in the polls, but why?? – fellow republicans foaming at the mouth bashing him with distorted facts and the unfair media doing the same and setting up debate questions geared to provoke rather than discuss real issues of substance.  ALL present candidates are quality people with honor with great accomplishments and should be treated accordingly 

  • w. Parker

    With so many people undecided, polls don’t mean squat.  Polls really never meant squat and didn’t mean squat when Reagan was running.  Polls should be outlawed as it is a means of influencing the undecided. Also, voting results should not be publicized until at least 24 hours “after” the polls close

    I have one serious question about glenn’s persistent attacks on newt.
    beck has spent months kissing up to Jewish people and Israel in order to cover up with Antisemitism. 
    My question is…
    Does glenn know who Adelson is?  Does he know that Adelson is the billionaire who is bankrolling newt’s campaign because of newt’s statements on Israel?  Does glenn know that Adelson is very well connected with the most powerful Jewish people in the world?  Does glenn’s hatred for newt mean that he dislikes his views on Israel?
    Just wondering how little background work beck’s inept staffers have done

    For today, and every day you post here, I will post your lies on every comment you make on this site….

    Why don’t you just go away you liar and Phony Soldier. Everyone would understand that move on your part. Your hate and ignorance is not winning any converts here. You’re the butt of jokes and ridicule.

    Please see a professional about your fixation on little children strtlk/mtclayboy.

    You’re a lying sack of crap. You denied serving on a submarine, and knowing what SSBN was. I posted your words verbatim.

    You’re a Wikipedia sailor and a lying puke.

    Here’s your “one on one” you little puke of a man.

    1. As mtclayboy you claimed that you served on a BOOMER. As strtlk you claimed not to know what a Boomer or a SSBN was “I don’t care” were your exact words. You also stated that you didn’t know where Bangor, Wa. was which is where Boomers (submarines) are fitted for duty.
    Any real Submariner would know that. You didn’t!

    2. You then changed your story and claimed that you were on a BOOMER. You lied.

    3. As mtclayboy you claimed that you had damaged your ears while serving on a Submarine. As strtlk, you claimed that you damaged your ears while serving on a submarine.

    4. As mtclayboy you claimed that you joined the Navy and served for five years on a submarine but according to the timeline you gave that was proven to be a lie. You lied.

    5. As mtclayboy you said that you were a Fireman. As strtlk, you claimed you were a Fireman.

    6. As mtclayboy and as strtlk, you posted the same bigotry and hate against Glenn Beck almost word for word even using the same spelling and grammatical errors and focusing on the children. I’ve posted many of them here already.

    Are you catching on everyone? He’s a liar plain and simple and nothing he claims can be believed.

    Folks, I have the posts of these two Phonies and have posted just a couple to prove he is a liar and just makes up stories about his Military Service. His latest story is right out of Wikipedia. His classified VMS crap is also right out of Wikipedia and US NAVY.mil. I’m a member there.

    He wants to take me on “one on one” when he’s already proven in his own words that he’s a liar and a fake.

    Flag the idiot so he can come back as another loser like his other fake ID “Vinny” where hes a 10 year Army Sargent on another classified secret mission that he can’t talk about.

    There you go loser, “one on one” only I backed up my posts with facts and your own words as proof. Why don’t you have the balls to admit to your lies, tuck your head up your A$$, take your bigotry and hate and Phony Soldier ID and leave us honest people alone?

    Once again, Here you are caught in your lies. These are your words verbatim:

    “1. No idea where Bangor, WA is. I thought Bangor was in Maine!

    3. Reminding people that glenn was a dead beat dad is a factual statement about him, not his innocent children. Nice try though slime ball.

    Greta always gives great interviews.  For those who have more than a 30 second attention span, you can gain a lot from her line of questioning. Glenn already made up his mind before his Gingrich interview. His immature, shock jock behavior was so blatantly bias, I could hardly stomach it.

  • Lioness

    Newt clearly stated he wants private industry to advance the space program (jobs will be created for all the out of work Nasa folk) and Mitt still strongly supports his healthcare mandate. When Romney’s in office the only repeal will be to allow states to opt out of Obama care. Sucks to be stuck in a liberal state (as I am). Santorum did well by really pressing Romney on this particular point. That’s what I got from this debate. All the other stuff was dribble.

    Well, since you do not seem to like anything Glenn, Pat or Stu said, leave. No one is forcing you to listen to them. By the way, if you had not noticed, this is GBTV, which means Glenn can do or say as he pleases. You do not have to agree with it, h3ll, you do not even have to like it, but it is his channel and show. I do not think Glenn owes her or you a damn thing. If she doesn’t like it, don’t listen or call. This caller got what she deserved, sarcasm and made to look like the idiot she is. Maybe you should call next time, I am sure that would be even more funny.

    P.S. Where I am glad people are waking up, the Tea Party is far from an original idea. They steal their ideas from Libertarians and people like you think it’s the second coming.

    No. Because Newt is not what he claims to be.
    If you think that Newt does not have socialistic ideas watch this video:

    “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcSjLvWLcxE”

    He talks about the rich paying for the poor’s health care and the government strongly interfering in how health care is implemented as a collective. This is the opposite of Reagan. Newt designed Obama-care.

  • Sunshine Kid

    My problem, Kirk Weisler, is the effort made to single out one man as the target.  Glenn used to be looking at everything; now, it seems like he has tunnel vision, and that disappoints me.

    Personally, I have no good feelings toward any of the contenders, but considering the destruction the USA would take if Obama gets re-elected  . . Need I say more?

    Definitely well put. It’s hard to articulate, we have so much info on any given individual at this point. We never had to worry about so much detail, details that did not exist until after the individual was out of office or long gone, and some details that may never surface. I consider president Reagan to be the best in my life, yet even he had a change of heart. He started out as a democrat after all. We change, as you say, and those who think a lot sometimes change a lot, but usually for the better.

    I’ve copied and pasted this from the post below because many people are hesitant to open “unknown” links and others just don’t have time, but I was greatly saddened to realize my own fears for BECK were not unshared.   When he defensively sent out the newsletter this past week calling listeners that disagreed with him  “Casual Fans”   I knew he was in trouble….someone had better remind him how he got to this high point on the mountain…and why…. I think the final blow to the AMERICAN WAY OF THINKING would come if he implodes…as his enemies want him to do.  Without Him we’d not have had 9/12 or TEA PARTY rally participation… he showed us that there were 3.5 times more of us than the liberal loon (21%) …he had people meeting and helping each other…but his down fall seemed to come when he got hoodwinked by Bachmann who “said all the right things” and then continued to defend her even when a lot of us told him that she was just self-serving and her audience got that, and that’s why they backed away… SHE tried to Co-OPT the TEA PARTY…she even slammed the one woman who is the most important woman Alive in America Today:  Sarah Palin.  One mistake (Brian Sack sluring Palin?) maybe,  two mistakes (allowing the gutter type humor of Sack and then his 4th hour buddies?  Not feasible any more…he had claimed higher ground but obviously not ready for it, but calling his loyal supporters  “CASUAL FANS” and hanging up on that woman this week?   I think that tipped the scale.  We’ll see what he does but I don’t think anyone who captures the PUBLIC EYE realizes how fleeting that adoration can be …one faux step …the reason?  We are looking for someone we can believe in,  Character, and right now, while he hasn’t fallen totally off the mountain, Beck is no longer at the top…whether he can get back up there is up to him.    READ THIS:

    The Self Distruction Of Glenn Beck
    I expected the end of Glenn Beck to be much more
    sudden; A hit scene from a mob movie, or a tragic “accident” helped
    along by some third hand associate of the infinitely sinister George
    Soros. But it turns out that such a dramatic demise is just another
    overblown caricature, like so many things about Beck, too melodramatic
    to be true. Instead, It now appears that the undoing of Glenn Beck
    will be of his own making.

    Who could have seen this coming?
    This once blazing star of the right, a man who could have been called
    the crown prince of conservative media, has spent all of his
    constructive potential in a supernova-like burst that has now begun to
    collapse inward with all the makings of a cold, dark, self destructive
    black hole. The only questions are, how much damage will the collapse
    do to Beck, and how much damage will we allow it to do to the
    conservative movement?

    It cannot be said that Beck hasn’t
    learned a thing or two from his opposition. In Jaw dropping displays
    of friendly fire, he has pummeled his own audience, and the Tea Party
    in general, with relentless Alinskyite tactics. He has mastered the
    art of the out-of-context sound bite, using Media Matters techniques to
    create a profound rift in the Conservative movement. Accusations of
    racism, ignorance, and most recently, anti-Mormon bigotry have erupted
    from the radio in a stream of marginalizing rhetoric that even the
    likes of Barack Obama should find impressive. How ironic that a man
    who has railed so heavily against Progressive’s use Alinsky’s Rules for
    Radicals should show himself to be a master practitioner of the craft.

    Whatever your stance on Newt Gingrich, one thing is clear,
    Beck stands in opposition to every other talk radio host of merit on
    the air. Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin have all defended Gingrich
    against attacks from the establishment/Romney machine while Beck
    perpetuates them…regardless of their accuracy. That is not to say that
    Beck is pro-Romney, but it is to say that Beck is decidedly
    anti-Gingrich, and that his positions are bound up in an emotional part
    of Beck’s make-up, rather than a rational policy based place. Such a
    thing is hard to deny as we repeatedly watch Glenn Beck turn on his
    supporters and bite the hand that feeds him.

    In response to howls
    of protest Beck has doubled down; taunting, mocking, and alienating
    fans in various ways. He told one caller to throw away all of his
    books, asked another if she was getting out of drug rehab, and chewed
    his audience out in fit of anger so voracious, that he was urged by his
    staff to apologize. Callers who have dared to confront him have been
    repeatedly hung up on, muted, interrupted, and (with the help of
    side-kick Pat) talked over to the extent that the purpose of their calls
    are generally unclear. Yes…this is par for the course in talk radio,
    but Beck doesn’t stop there. In his daily e-mails he characterizes
    dissenters as “casual fans,” “blind Gingrich supporters,” and “angry.”
    Many have tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but after months
    of this behavior signs are beginning to point to an increasingly
    impatient audience and an impending mass exodus.

    So if Glenn Beck
    is determined to self destruct, perhaps it’s time that we got out of
    his way. After all, we have more pressing issues to worry about, and
    the noise from his collapsing star is undermining the message of unity
    and cohesion within the conservative movement. For all the good Beck
    has brought us over the years, the rift he’s creating with his newly
    acquired skills could be the cause of some very undesirable events in
    2012 and beyond.

    If Beck is not willing to right his own ship,
    there is nothing that can prevent him crashing it into the rocks. No
    amount of pleading, arguing, or reasoning will force him to correct his
    course. But the conservative movement must not go into the rocks with
    him. The Tea Party must continue to advance its banner…under the
    banner that it, not Beck, deems most appropriate. Dissent is a
    valuable thing, but at the end of the day that dissent must not have
    created an unfathomable cavern that renders our efforts impotent and
    our future lost. Whatever Beck’s intentions, he has become the chief
    tool in a game of divide and conquer and the purveyor of intense
    resentment that could result in the collapse of all we have worked for.

    We can little afford to allow him to split the conservative
    arm of the Republican party, leaving the establishment arm intact, so
    Beck must be left to his own devices, and we must turn our ear away
    from divisive rhetoric and toward a healthy examination of the
    candidates in order to ensure that we fully understand what they
    represent. Each candidate must be examined within the full context of
    his own governing record, which is the true measure of how each man is
    likely to govern from the White House.

    The media has been used
    to influence elections for far too long, and we should not give any
    media figure, including Beck, that kind of power. Many of us have
    learned a valuable lesson from Beck’s recent behavior, one we will not
    soon forget. As much as we hate to admit it, something has changed on
    the Glenn Beck program. Theories abound, but we can only guess at the
    reasons. We must continue to question with boldness…something that
    Beck himself taught us. We must dig deep to find the truth on our own,
    because no media figure will ever provide it in its entirety. Whether
    Glenn Beck continues to collapse or is able to turn it around, one
    thing must be recognized; finding the truth is ultimately up to us,
    because it clearly no longer lives here.

    I have found that those who know Jesus change for the better and everyone else is up for grabs.

    I am registered independant and didn’t like Reagan at first. I really wasn’t interested in politics until I bought my first home, Bill Clinton was president and interest rates were through the roof when he came into office. I came into my house knowing I would need to refinace because of it. So the Clinton administration did a good job financially and I was able to refi- to a nice fixed rate.
    Why am I telling all of this …I believe Newt was involved in both of those Administrations and they worked out just fine for the American people.
    We have to look at what people do, not just what they say and everyone makes some mistakes. So let’s begin to magnify the good that has come from what people have done and for the greater good, not just themselves. Motives are extremely important when weighing the measure of an individual. Why do they want to be the president (and not only to beat the sitting one)? What else do they have in their heart, … is what I want to know?

  • SoThere

    For today, and every day you post here, I will post your lies on every comment you make on this site….

    Why don’t you just go away you liar and Phony Soldier. Everyone would understand that move on your part. Your hate and ignorance is not winning any converts here. You’re the butt of jokes and ridicule.

    Please see a professional about your fixation on little children strtlk/mtclayboy.

    You’re a lying sack of crap. You denied serving on a submarine, and knowing what SSBN was. I posted your words verbatim.

    You’re a Wikipedia sailor and a lying puke.

    Here’s your “one on one” you little puke of a man.

    1. As mtclayboy you claimed that you served on a BOOMER. As strtlk you claimed not to know what a Boomer or a SSBN was “I don’t care” were your exact words. You also stated that you didn’t know where Bangor, Wa. was which is where Boomers (submarines) are fitted for duty.
    Any real Submariner would know that. You didn’t!

    2. You then changed your story and claimed that you were on a BOOMER. You lied.

    3. As mtclayboy you claimed that you had damaged your ears while serving on a Submarine. As strtlk, you claimed that you damaged your ears while serving on a submarine.

    4. As mtclayboy you claimed that you joined the Navy and served for five years on a submarine but according to the timeline you gave that was proven to be a lie. You lied.

    5. As mtclayboy you said that you were a Fireman. As strtlk, you claimed you were a Fireman.

    6. As mtclayboy and as strtlk, you posted the same bigotry and hate against Glenn Beck almost word for word even using the same spelling and grammatical errors and focusing on the children. I’ve posted many of them here already.

    Are you catching on everyone? He’s a liar plain and simple and nothing he claims can be believed.

    Folks, I have the posts of these two Phonies and have posted just a couple to prove he is a liar and just makes up stories about his Military Service. His latest story is right out of Wikipedia. His classified VMS crap is also right out of Wikipedia and US NAVY.mil. I’m a member there.

    He wants to take me on “one on one” when he’s already proven in his own words that he’s a liar and a fake.

    Flag the idiot so he can come back as another loser like his other fake ID “Vinny” where hes a 10 year Army Sargent on another classified secret mission that he can’t talk about.

    There you go loser, “one on one” only I backed up my posts with facts and your own words as proof. Why don’t you have the balls to admit to your lies, tuck your head up your A$$, take your bigotry and hate and Phony Soldier ID and leave us honest people alone?

    Once again, Here you are caught in your lies. These are your words verbatim:

    strtlk said: on Hollywood elites want to be taxed more 09/24/11 07:51 PM

    “1. No idea where Bangor, WA is. I thought Bangor was in Maine!
    2. What the heck is a “Boomer” or SSBN? You know what…I don’t care!
    3. Reminding people that glenn was a dead beat dad is a factual statement about him, not his innocent children. Nice try though slime ball.
    3. Either talk about something relevant and stop this, you are jason bourne crap!”

    Caught in your lies strtlk.

    Thanks for proving me correct.

    Folks, strtlk/mtclayboy has been caught in his lies, He’s a lying sack of crap.

    First, this caller wasn’t frantic – but Glenn sure has been in his tacit defenses of Romney and his straight-ahead attacks on Newt.

    And two, a bit more of the team dynamic has been showing up of late, as Stu has essentially figured out that his boss has gone stark, staring mad on this issue. Evidence of this surfaced during one segment where Stu, in a critical tone, said “So you’re only taking the angry calls” to Glenn. In a later segment (days later), Glenn orders Stu over to the Liberty Safe and asks him to get some letter that was a gift from his wife – the undercurrent of the whole interchange was “You’ve been a little too critical lately Stu, let me show you and the radio audience who is boss and who needs to be doing who’s business.” And finally, the e2 thing. Stu wasn’t super excited about taking the e2 ‘challenge’ and said he’d ‘give it a whirl’. Glenn immediately started taunting him saying, ‘Yeah, that’s how someone taking a challenge to embody ‘diligence’ should start out, by saying ‘Give it a whirl.’” Pat’s typical insane cackling wasn’t as hearty in this interchange, seeing as the ridicule was directed at the team itself.

    Of course, as the rest of us know, these silly challenges don’t work out any better than a typical New Year’s resolution and are actually much, much worse if your boss is FORCING you to do them. This is similar to Glenn’s psychiatrist based initiative (Dr. Ablow) which also failed. Glenn was smart enough to quickly downplay that one, hopefully he will learn the same about the e2 initiative. Glenn, you’re not the one to be asking us to revolutionize our lives, we’ve got other higher powers that help us with that. You have a Paul Revere function at best, but that function cannot be achieved if you pick sides and attack conservatives – don’t we have enough misguided souls on the other side?

    In the interim, while the Newt soap opera rages at Glenn central, what other creative, substantive and helpful coverage could have been created. Rush, Hannity and Levin don’t seem to be suffering from this strange desire for Newthanasia, so if Glenn is driving you crazy, check out these other programs…

    My family and I (casual fans) used to watch Glenn on fox and started listening to him when he came to radio in our area. But we stopped. It’s too irritating. Most conservative radio hosts are presenting a much more unbiased, factual take on things. I only blog here because I like the opinions of some, but it’s frustrating and I’m about jump ship. Not because of the good people here, but because I’m disappointed in Glenn’s message: all who support Newt are progressive and wish for the downfall of America. I guess I’m progressive, how insulting. I apparently don’t get his deep insight on the issues. I’m probably being too critical, but Glenn is a disappointment.

  • w. Parker

    There is another subject on glenns site about Newt’s book “Real Change”.  Glenn makes spins and takes passages out of context to fool you.  He assumes you have no mind of your own and without reading the book yourself, will take his word for anything he says.  If all on this subject blog read this book, all would vote for Newt.  Don’t take my word OR Glenn’s, read the book yourself.  Newt is a person we want in DC to straigten out the elite’s, crooks and get things done…

    Glenn Beck’s success is going back to his big head, he always comments how he was a scumbag when he was an alcoholic and how badly he treated the people who worked for him and thanks God for his change? I wonder how much he’s really changed, one minute he’s telling you to be like George Washinton and to have malice toward none and the next he’s playing God and tell the world he KNOWS! Newt Gingrich! while giving the benefit of the doubt to Romney and the others! his bias or hatred is plain to see! at least to those who don’t follow him like sheep. I used to have respect for Glenn Beck until he praised Obama for his political speech in Arizona  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/13/glenn-beck-obama-memorial-speech_n_808646.html Glenn Beck is just an emotional man who gives more importance to feelings than logic and reason, two very important things you need to navigate the sea of confusion that the political system in America has become. Glenn Beck is good in some areas and stinks in others… in other words he’s just as confused and biased as the rest of the media. stop taking him seriously in every area, think for yourselves and do your own research! that’s one thing he says that I wholeheartedly agree with!

  • Lioness

    You said “Glenn Beck is just an emotional man who gives more importance to feelings than logic and reason” Exactly! I actually think Glenn believes Newt is going to single handedly destroy America. Romney care and his forced mandate should be repeated over and over. It’s clear he is not going to really repeal it, just allow the states to opt out. People are still supporting Romney, yet so little is said here. A Romney blogger told me that every one already knows and nobody cares. Why? It goes against every thing we were fighting for. When Santorum went after Romney in the debate, Glenn should have been all over that. Mark Levin sure was. What is wrong here?

  • Anonymous

    Here’s my suggestion…get out and push the grassroots resistence to the establishment.  Newt is rebounding in FL with the help of conservatives like Palin, Cain, and Michael Reagan.  Forget the few stray sheep that just bleat everything Glenn says about them without ever doing the reserach and go be part of the peoples movement to take back the Republican party.  If you want to do it from home, do it with social networks like facebook, twitter, and tumblr.  They only win if we let them.  And we aren’t reaching alot of people here…

  • Lioness

    So true. My family and I will be out in full force when he gets to Michigan. We also got a lot of support from friends and co workers. Newt 2012! (Palin’s support has gotta chap Glenn’s arse) Your right, there’s not much left here.

    At least Glenn Beck state his reason on merits on who he sides with to be Republican candidate to go against obama!!

Let face the facts the polls the Republican being poll are being split right now wanting make their a candidate look as sure winner over obama!!  Why listen to these people they gave us moderate John Mc Cain and loss!  Have we forgotten of all the conservative Republicans senators and Representatives that were elected in 2010 Blue & Red states! When Republican establishment and left wing news media say conserative cannot win or electable !!!!! I say vote who you like best on principles and merits and not be sway by someone telling you he not a winner on contrue falsehoods ,plus look at their predictions in the past they are not world renown psysic,P.S ask them to show million of dollars in their pockets if they so good in making predictions before you would believe in them!!!

    Glenn has lost his mind.  He is so into the word “Progressive” he applies it to anyone who doesn’t think like he does, or anyone who says anything good about any past President who he labels a progressive.

    To use Glenn’s logic where he takes a few quotes of Newt and concludes he is progressive, do the following.  Go to Amazon.com and search for works by Newt.  You will discover he chooses to write about Reagan, Washington, Lincoln, Civil War, World War II, etc.  Not one book title is listed about FDR, Woodrow Wilson, or Teddy Roosevelt.  Then search for other quotes by Newt, you will see he has promoted conservative princples a huge majority of his life works.  Has he strayed occaisionally; sure, but look at the overall record.

    So, to apply Glenn’s logic, I watched “Ronald Reagan: A Rendezvous with Destiny” by Newt Gingrich, and can only assume:

    OH MY GOD!  NEWT IS A REAGAN CONSERVATIVE!  CAN YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THIS, I HAVE THE QUOTES… I HAVE HIM ON VIDEO SAYING THESE THINGS ABOUT REAGAN!

    Wake up America,  Glenn has lost me as a follower and is nothing more than a pathetic Charlatan

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_OWJL3SO6BJJMMCZMIN5V45BEO4 brett

    WOW reading some of these comments make me laugh.  The heart of conservatism is morals, values and integrity.  Newt Gingrich failed as a husband, failed as a father and failed as a politician and quit with ethics violations.  He praised Romneycare and is the only candidate running that actually has suggested multiple times that the individual healthcare mandate be on a federal level.  All the gripes about Romneycare from Newt supports are total garbage seeing as Newt has wanted this for years.  Newt also pushed for carbon credits and global warming, he just changed his views a few months back.  Newt is someone who changes his view based off popularity. He has no values that remotely represent conservatism.  I think Romney is a moderate but I will at least vote for someone with family values and a hint of morals.

    Then you clearly haven’t bothered to look at the actual laws Romney passed and the judges he appointed…and don’t give me that “he was up against a liberal majorty tripe.”  Ronald Reagan was up against a liberal majority and he didn’t cave.  At best, Romney has no spine.

    Do you really think this nation can survive the kind of Judges Romney will nominate?  The Scotus is currently the only body we have that even remotely defends the constitution…an if we lose that we’re done.  If you help to get him the nomination, you will be complicit in the demise of freedom in America.  Enjoy.

    Oh, he’s slamming someone you like. That’s the difference.

    You’ve already heard him say over and over Romney’s not his guy. He wanted Bachmann. He wants Santorum. He’s been telling you what to think about Santorum for weeks.

    What, Glenn can’t say that Santorum seems to fit the bill more than anyone else out there? And Gingrich seems to fit it the least?

    LBBSpock and ElPzee you both are amazing!!  Glenn is the ONLY one in media that gives people a fair chance.  It’s all about choosing the lesser of the Progressives in the race.  Gingrich is very open how “BIG” government he is and how he follows the Roosevelt’s and Woodrow Wilson.  That should literally scare that crap out of everyone!!  The last I knew the Fairness Doctrine wasn’t law and he is free to speak his mind.  Glenn has never once sold Romney over Gingrich or the other way around.  He has just given his listeners a fact based expression of the goods and bads of each candidate.  FAIRLY!!  I listen everyday from 9 to noon and have never heard him say he loves Mitt, Gingrich, Santorum or Paul.  He doesn’t trust any of them.  Period!  But that’s ok you also are intitled to your opinion.  However in 2014 when your swearing the President’s name I gurantee you will say or at least think “Glenn was right”  Along with all of the other thousands of fans you think Glenn has lost.  Thank you Mr. Beck for providing the resources I need to find the truth for myself.

    WYWCM, When has Glenn or his associates attacked Romney with the same vitrilole as they have Gingrich? He says he supports Santorum, but it is becoming more obvious that he is just running interference for Romney. It is less than intellectually honest to say that Gingrich is less conservative than Romney. A nemesis of Glenn’s recently remarkes that there was not a lot of difference between Obama and Romney. What about all of the liberal and establishment republicans backing Romney? Doesn’t it concern you that glenn does not play the footage of Romney’s liberal positions as he does Gingrich’s? All I’m asking for is a fair assesment of both candidates, and Glenn has miserably failed to do so.  

  • Kanak Attack

    LBBSpock,  It wasn’t more than two months ago that I sent an email to The Blaze asking them why they and Glenn Beck were targeting Romney more than any other candidate.  I can show you dozens and dozens of articles from The Blaze and Glenn Beck that show the period of time when they were trying to bring out into the open the issues they had with Romney.  Well now it’s Gingrich’s turn.
    In the entire span of Glenn’s coverage of this next election the time that he’s spent addressing Gingrich is absolutely tiny.  It would help if you didn’t take a moment in time and judge Glenn’s coverage of this primary on just that moment.

    Glenn knows Santorum won’t last much farther than Flordia, at which point he will back Romney.  That’s why he’s been trying to destroy Gingrich and Avoiding discussing Romney at all costs, because he knows the race will eventually become Gingrich and Romney.

    Kanak Attack, One thing to remember about two months ago is that Bachman, Perry and Cain were still in the race. But as these candidates began to atrophy and Newt began his first rise is when the incessent attacks began on him. Again, I have no problem if Glenn does not like Newt, but in substance and record comparison, Romney is much less conservative. How can Glenn say that he will vote for Romney–a Progressive– if forced to do so, but not Newt–another Progressive according to Glenn? I’m only saying that this is blatantly inconsistent.

    Tim, It appears that you are the one turning a blind eye to what is going on with Beck and the boys. Glenn should go after everyone fairly, not necessarily equally. Better yet since he claims to have his dog in the race it might be more beneficial for his listeners if he were to compare and contrast Romney and Gingrich to Santorum. Instead he turns his program into the Gadfly Gingrich Production.

    I don’t see Glenn in the tank for Mitt Romney…Glenn really likes Rick Santorum as do I BUT Santorum is a President for better times….I will vote for Newt because I think he has the knowledge and the Guts to fight for curing the hard times we are facing.

    GBTV has more subscribers than Oprah’s lame cable channel has viewers – and subscribers give more monetarily than viewers do to O.

    Also, here’s a hint: Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t mean they didn’t effectively defend themselves. Another hint: Glenn’s show is a heck of a lot more entertaining with both Stu and Pat on with him, and they don’t shut them up just because an angry caller calls in with some asinine complaint so Glenn can “prove” himself to disgusting hacks like you that he can handle them 1 on 1 (though he has done just that in the past if there’s a real reason for it, e.g. he has something he wants to say w/o them going into tangents or jokes or whatever).

    CHECK!  When you consider where Santorum and Gingrich stand politically, there is absolutely no difference.  I wish they would see fit to unite, but I don’t see that happening until the convention.  Then we will see who can swallow their ego and take the roll as VP.

    No, we’re not
    blind supporters.  On the contrary, there
    are certain qualities I appreciate in a news person. In my opinion, a TV/radio
    host does a better job when he does not reveal his personal feelings until
    ‘afterwards. He speaks more powerfully when he states the facts.

    Granted, that
    makes it harder to be entertaining, but not if you look at where Glen came
    from. Previously he focused on getting lesser known facts that were behind the
    news. In this way, the listener can determine where they stand on their own.

    His views have
    become so skewed when he plays sound bites to show someone has flip-flopped or
    is lying, but since I’m familiar with the comment, I’m also aware that he
    omitted the part that is not consistent with his opinion. I dislike it when
    listeners call in and instead of allowing them to talk, he interrupts so that
    he can restate his view that we’ve already heard. Granted sometimes people
    repeat themselves and the conversation is going nowhere. Although he still
    enjoy his performances, I am beginning to think Glen has been blessed with too
    much success and he is losing some perspective.

    Glenn might
    not like being paired with Newt, but if you ask me they are the same kind of
    bird. They both have a past. They are both bright and capable of making very
    compelling arguments. They both tend to be overly confident in their personal
    ability to produce a positive outcome.

    Do you think
    their mutual dislike is the result of a recognition of themselves in the other.
    hummmmm

    Actually you are part of the problem if you are blindly believing Beck.  I was a fan of his when he moved to Fox and started exposing the socialists for what they are.  He has now gone way overboard, just like he did with alchohol, and now religion.  He is extremists in whatever affects him mentally. 

    I’m not even voting for Newt, I’m for Paul, but there is no honor in lying to your audience.  Newts got problems but he has supported the Reagan philosophy more times than not.
