Glenn plays the amazing audio of the Fox reporter who caught up with Hugo Chavez at the UN and asked him a few questions, which Chavez promptly avoids while calling Fox viewers deranged. Glenn also plays audio of Benjamin Netanyahu, who was outraged at the fact that legitimacy is given to the President of Iran, a guy who denies the Holocaust and who has called for Israel to be wiped off the map. Glenn plays the audio and reacts. ( Transcript, Insider Audio)
Rare night for NBC
The SNL Weekend Update crew targeted Glenn for the very first time in a bit (which Glenn thought was actually very funny) AND Rush Limbaugh appeared on The Jay Leno Show. Glenn was mocked for his spelling prowess while Limbaugh masterfully and unashamedly explained the conservative point of view on Healthcare, Capitalism and more. The icing on the cake was Rush racing in the Green car, running over a cardboard cutout of Al Gore...then putting it in reverse to run him over again. The biggest shock? The crowd cheered wildly when the cardboard Gore was mowed down AND the crowd also cheered while Rush explained opposition to government healthcare. On NBC? Really? Nice. Watch the SNL bit on Glenn HERE and Leno's interview with Rush HERE.
Barack makin’ stuff up
The President seems stuck in perpetual campaign mode, leaving the White House in favor of giving speeches to heavily partisan crowds who already support his plan. Which makes it doubly worse that he feels the need to make things up while on the quasi campaign trail -- like he did with a hard luck healthcare story meant to highlight the evils of our current system. Obama appears to be attempting to outdo Al Gore, who complained during a Presidential debate in 2000 that schools were so overcrowded people had to stand in class. The real reason people were standing at the school Gore mentioned was because they had hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of brand new lab equipment that was yet to be unpacked, taking up space in the classroom. Could Obama's fib be worse? You decide -- Glenn tells the story in the latest Beck Talks video blog. WATCH
Would McCain have been worse? Glenn is taking heat over those comments (from the GOP) and just wanted to show you THIS clip of McCain on the campaign trail. Still think he'd be any different?
Glenn Beck gets another 'scalp'
The Communications Director of the NEA resigned, and the fringe media is referring to this as another Glenn Beck scalp. Glenn has no interest in 'scalps' -- and only in the truth. The fact of the matter is the NEA debacle goes far higher than the Communications Director who quit -- and Glenn won't quit until he gets actual answers on what the real agenda is.

So many idiots, so little time
Glenn's new book, Arguing with Idiots is in bookstores everywhere and it couldn't have come at a better time. With the future of our country hanging in the balance, as we decide between 'will we go socialist or make a u-turn back towards the free market, now is the time to convince your friends that no, socialism won't work and never will. Back your argument up with the facts -- facts you can show with the 20 plus pages of footnotes on sources at the end of the book. Find out where you can get your copy HERE.
Channeling Saul Alinsky
Glenn plays a series of audio clips -- starting with the Chavez clip where he makes fun of Fox News and ending with the clip of him being incessantly referred to by Dick Durbin on the floor of the United States Senate. All of these clips demonstrate one thing -- the left can't win the argument, so they are being forced to refer to the strategy championed by Saul Alinsky. Identify the target, then mock and ridicule. Chavez couldn't answer the question Fox asks, so he mocked. Durbin can't answer the charge - so he redirects the attention towards the 'guru' Glenn Beck. Glenn explains more.
