The Argument Against Idiots: Democrat National Convention

August 28, 2008
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program

How to win the argument de jour with logic and facts



 


The issue:

"Democrat National Convention"

What the liberal whiners say:

'What a gathering of fantastic, caring people at the Democratic National Convention in Denver...the finest people to ever walk the earth. Like Nobel Prize winner Jimmy Carter-what could you possibly have against THAT wonderful man of peace?'

'Nancy Pelosi has done NOTHING but fight for the average, hard-working families in this country!' She just fought hard to raise the minimum wage from $5.15-$7.25 an hour'

Your winning, logical, reasoned arguments

1. Ah yes, a man who never met a brutal dictator he didn't love. From Fidel Castro to Hugo Chavez, whose sham election Carter certified (even a Harvard study of the election in Venezuela found a 99% chance of fraud) to being instrumental in the overthrow of the Shah of Iran, and the resulting trip home from exile of the Ayatollah Khomeini and the rapid rise of extremist Islamic terrorism against the United States. Not to mention his close relationship with Hamas, and recent trip over there to meet with them and throw a monkey wrench into U.S. foreign policy.

2. She sure did. In fact, not only did Congress raise the minimum wage in all 50 states (or is it 57?), but in all U.S. territories as well, including for the first time ever the Northern Mariana Islands. Oh, the ONE exception to the minimum wage was American Samoa. Apparently 75% of the workforce is employed by two packing plants. One is Starkist, whose parent company, Del Monte was one of the biggest OPPONENTS to the wage increase and is headquartered in San Francisco, and represented in Congress by...Nancy Pelosi. Somehow, Nancy got Starkist the exemption they fought for in Samoa. The other plant is Chicken of the Sea...also headquartered in California. "Ask any Mermaid you happen to see...who's the biggest phony...Nancy Pe Lo Si."

Dan Crenshaw: The Left is NOT 'liberal' — they have become 'genuinely authoritarian'

Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Thursday to discuss the Left's current efforts to rid the U.S. military of "extremism," Democrats' push to separate President Joe Biden from the nuclear codes, and how conservatives can use government to battle the far-left, their policies, and their efforts to control Americans.

Crenshaw called the military's efforts to rid their ranks of extremism, "so obviously and clearly politically motivated," as the entire premise is based on reports that some active service members and veterans participated in the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol.

"Mathematically, that's not a good indication of where active duty military stand or where veterans stand more broadly," Crenshaw said of the generalization that military personnel are extremists. "And I thought we were against that kind of profiling. Right? I thought that was against the liberal values that supposedly the Left stands for."

"But, Glenn, you know very well the Left is not liberal," he added. "The Left is very anti-liberal. And I think as conservatives, we have to say that more often. They have become genuinely authoritarian. Progressivism is not in sync with liberalism. All right? There's a big difference between an Alan Dershowitz liberal and a Democrat Party progressive. They're totally different."

Glenn Beck: THIS is why Biden nominated Merrick Garland as attorney general

Many will remember President Biden's attorney general nominee Merrick Garland as the man Republicans refused to hold a Supreme Court confirmation hearing for back in 2016. So, was Garland's AG nomination just meant to be a slap in the face to Republicans? Glenn Beck thinks there's a lot more to it.

Given how focused Democrats are on rooting out vaguely defined "right-wing extremism," Garland's work in supervising the prosecution of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing suspects gives us a hint, Glenn suggested on radio this week. He said he's "all for" stopping dangerous extremists, but couldn't help noticing how Garland isn't talking about any of the destruction that happened over the summer.

"I am all for justice. I am all for making sure we catch the bad guys, as long as the bad guys are not defined to be on only one side," Glenn said. "Merrick Garland said [Monday] that there was no comparison between what happened on January 6th and what happened over the summer. That is because the Washington elites see themselves as better than somebody who owns a taco stand. I don't. The Constitution doesn't. They are the same crime."

CONTROL FREAKS: The Great Reset Overlords Who Will Ru(i)n Your Life

"All rich countries should move to 100% synthetic beef. You can get used to the taste difference," said holy anointed billionaire Bill Gates. Green activism has been around for decades. But what used to be wacky has now worked its way into the world's power structure. You must believe the science. You cannot question the science.

The Texas power failure provided America with a disturbing and deadly preview of the Great Reset. But Bill Gates, AOC, and other Democrats say this only proves we need to enforce MORE green policies.

On his Wednesday night special this week, Glenn Beck reveals how deep the Great Reset tentacles reach into government and business to strangle freedom and their efforts to control every aspect of your private life.

Pastor IMPRISONED for violating lockdown: Are government officials 'picking on' Christians?

Why are we letting criminals out of prison while putting pastors in? Pastor James Coates of Canada's GraceLife Church was recently fined, arrested, and put in maximum security prison for violating lockdown rules.

Rebel News founder Ezra Levant joined Glenn Beck on "Glenn TV" to discuss the story. Ezra said he's noticed a trend of government officials "picking on" Christians as "lockdownism" becomes almost a new kind of religion, and warned this might be just the start of more persecution to come.
