Biden's gaffe count increases

July 17, 2009
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program




Joe Biden speaking to AARP. In order to save the country from bankruptcy we have to spend more money.

GLENN: Do we have the audio of Joe Biden yesterday talking about healthcare. Listen to this.

BIDEN: And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable. It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It can’t do it financially. We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation. Now, people when I say that look at me and say, What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt? The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.

GLENN: There it is. Okay, so what are you talking about, Joe? People say to me all the time, what are you talking about, Joe? Oh, I bet they do. Are you saying we're going to go bankrupt? Yes. Then you are telling us we need to go spend more money to keep us from going bankrupt? Yes. I would like to talk to a single person that that makes sense to. Help me out with the logic. You can get me to this logic: Glenn, is debt bad? No. Well, debt is bad; we've got out of control debt. No, no, no. You said out of control debt? Yes, that's bad. Debt is not bad, if it's not out of control. Everybody has a reasonable amount of debt. Unfortunately most people have an unreasonable amount of debt. The federal government has an unsustainable, incomprehensible amount of debt. There's a difference. Is debt bad? No. You own your house? Well, no, I took a loan out for it. Okay, debt's not bad. If you took a loan out for your house that there's no way you could ever pay those payments, then debt is bad. This, what you have to realize is our country has done everything to throttle down. We have put you know what it is? We're a race car driver and we have now put a governor on our car so we can only go 65 miles an hour. But we're in the Indianapolis 500 and we are the race car driver that has won every Indy race for the last 25 years. We are the best race car driver ever, ever in the history of race cars and we're at the Indianapolis 500 and we say, "If we're going to put... you know what, this race is just too dangerous. We're all gonna die. " Well, what should we do? "Well, we should all put a governor on ourselves." What? "We should never go more than 65 miles an hour." Yeah, right, right. Well, if I do it because I'm the most experienced, I'm the one that everybody looks to, if I put a governor on my car and race 65 miles an hour, then everybody else will. No, they won't. Because there's a lot of race car drivers that want to win the race. So you can go do whatever you want, but until the whole, the race car league of America, including Speed Racer and Racer X decide to put the governor on their car, you're gonna lose every time. Well, that's what we're doing. We're doing it with healthcare, we're doing it with regulation, we're doing it by buying up our businesses. Is there anyone within the sound of my voice that believes that General Motors is going to make a better car because they are now run by the unions and the government, is there anyone, is there anyone in the government and the unions that think that they will make a better car because they now control it? No. It's unsustainable. It's ridiculous. It makes absolutely no sense and everybody knows it.

Glenn Beck, Chad Prather, and Steven Crowder on Dr. Seuss and the idiocy of cancel culture

Blaze TV hosts Glenn Beck , Chad Prather, and Steven Crowder weighed-in with similar but different thoughts on the fascism associated with canceling Dr. Seuss.

Glenn Beck can't help but wonder, "What is wrong with us?" in light of the Dr. Seuss books that have been cancelled due to "hurtful and wrong" illustrations — that takes America one step closer to complete insanity.

Chad Prather approached the issue from a comedic perspective, stating that "Dr. Seuss is dead and could not be reached for comment."

Steven Crowder explained that Dr. Seuss books were banned for being offensive and insensitive to some. So Steven decided to parody the six banned children's books with progressively titled and hilariously inappropriate versions.

'We DON'T destroy books'

Finance Fascists: The Credit Chokehold That Will Bankrupt America

"What's your climate credit score?" That's a question Americans may have to answer if the green global elites get their way.

While the media has distracted us with Orange Man Bad! and Russia, Russia, Russia!, the Left has been busy working on the fundamental transformation of America with a primary pressure point — YOUR money through YOUR bank. Democrats, forgetting the words of MLK, like to group people into categories. They judge you based on what skin color you have, your religion, occupation, your ideology, and now … your carbon footprint.

On his Wednesday night TV special this week, Glenn Beck exposes how they're now planning, not only to categorize you, but to give you a score. It'll determine everything for you: whether you can buy a home, get a new car, open a business … EVERYTHING. And if you don't bend the knee? You'll be blacklisted. But this isn't some far-off conspiracy theory. Multiple big U.S. banks are part of a private U.S. financial group enacting these policies now. It's here, and we're ALL at risk.

'We'll take the hits, but we WON'T let people lie': CPAC organizer hints at lawsuit over 'Nazi' stage design claims

Unlike the mainstream media, we at the "Glenn Beck Radio Program" decided to actually do the research and get to the bottom of CPAC's controversial stage design, which many on the Left have suggested was purposefully shaped like an obscure Nazi symbol. We got our answers straight from the source — and it's not what the media is suggesting.

American Conservative Union chairman Matt Schlapp joined Glenn on Wednesday to share the real story of the stage design, who designed it, and why he's taking legal options against those smearing the Conservative Political Action Conference's name seriously.

Matt told Glenn he'd never heard of the alleged Nazi insignia, noting that even a staff member who "studied anti-Semitism in college" did not recognize the obscure symbol. He went on to explain how the stage designing firm, Design Foundry, and Hyatt Hotels worked collaboratively with CPAC event organizers for months throughout the designing and construction of the stage. However, when pressured by the cancel culture mob on social media, both companies "ran for the tall grass."

"Both the Hyatt and [Design Foundry] looked to CPAC and said [they] had nothing to do with this stage. That's outrageous," Matt stated. "This whole process takes months ... everybody saw this. Everybody had to figure out how to construct this. Everybody had eyes on it from every angle. And nobody in that process ever raised their hand and said, 'Oh, you know, I took a European history class, and I noticed [that the stage design looked like a Nazi symbol.] Nobody."

Matt went on to add that, while CPAC expects attacks from the Left, they also have every intention of standing up for themselves, the conservative community, the Jewish community, and all the people who love America.

"We're fine with taking the hits. We always take the hits, it's part of being a prominent conservative group. We'll take the hits, but we won't let people lie," Matt said.

"I can't tell you how many people have called me during the course of this most tumultuous of years and said, at what point does the conservative community, do the 74 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump, do the people who love America, and think it's okay to read Dr. Seuss, and love Thomas Jefferson and Mount Rushmore, at what point do they start pushing back on the cancel culture? At what point do they say, this is a line you can't cross? I think we're at that line," he added.

"We called our conference, 'America Uncanceled.' The whole thing became about them canceling us. At what point do we not have the right to say,' you can't treat us this way'? You're disparaging us. You're destroying our reputation. You're destroying our ability to be respected members of our community. So, I'm taking your challenge of pursuing our legal options very seriously. And I think we have to go broader. We can't let these companies just follow the woke mob. We can't do it."

Jim Acosta perfectly demonstrates why CPAC attendees chanted ‘CNN sucks’

CNN reporter Jim Acosta was confronted at CPAC by The Federalist reporter David Marcus with a valid question: "When are you guys going to start covering Cuomo?" His answer — or, really, lack of an answer — perfectly demonstrates why he was earlier surrounded by CPAC attendees chanting, "CNN sucks!"

On the "Glenn Beck Radio Program" Tuesday, Glenn and producer Stu Burguiere react to a video clip of the exchange with Acosta, as well as the mainstream media's double standards when it comes to Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
