Shocking audio as Glenn Beck mocks 11 year old Malia. This man is heartless.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Say what you want as long as you apologize after the fact.

Apologizing makes it all better, and actually adds a little validity to the insulter as he/she owns up, apologizes publicly and prove that he's not that bad of a guy after all.


Actually, this incident changes my opinion of Beck.


I read the text from the link but would not listen to it because although it was probably funny, it was still at the expense of a little girl.

Beck is not that big of a man.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Anyone that believes his daughter asked him that question would probably be in the market for some ocean front property in Arizona! Another lie from bho !

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

LOL I actually had to look it up to find out who Malia is... (but no, it's not because the president is black since that seems to be the theme every time his name is mentioned... I couldn't tell you the name of the Bush girls either.)

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

I think his intent was actually to mock BHO, because the President said she asked him, "Did you plug the hole yet, Daddy?"

Obviously GB didn't believe that she actually asked the question. :blink

Either way--I'm not really a Glenn Beck fan.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Of course it was....but that provides no political gravitas, as BHO is easy to mock.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

The statement about the "level of their intelligence..." doesn't seem to be aimed at Malia but rather at Obama's followers. The whole discourse seems intended to mock those who put out the "Daddy, did you block the hole yet?" statement. Publishing that in the first place opens up the admin for ridicule on the remark.

Of course Beck runs the risk of of garnering his own criticism for mockingly imitating the President's 11 year old daughter; but I don't think the daughter was the target of the ridicule. Instead, Beck seems to be saying that the Dems are acting like 11 year old girls.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Beck would have better just to steer clear of the whole thing.

Whatever point he was trying to make could have been made without maligning an 11 year old girl, or even a Father-Daughter moment that was shared with the world to show the humanity, and thus compassion of the President in this time of crisis.


I mean, who would really make fun of someone sharing their Father-Daughter or Mother-Son moment?

In any other venue, it would automatically be written off as tasteless.

Since the President is a Democrat, it's ok.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Just how tasteless it is will probably remain subjective. To say that Beck gets some sort of free pass because the President is a Dem either reveals your political memory to only be about a year and a half old - or you're attempting to be ironic.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

But that's diffrent....it's open season on Sarah Palin and other GOP people but don't touch the sacred Obamas .

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Almost got it!

I AM being sarcastic.


It was pretty tasteless of Beck-- not as bad as the smear on Sarah's daughter on late night television, but not too far away.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

anyone who thinks Media Matters is going to actually tell the truth in context is either a liberal, ignorant of what Media Matters is or just simply stupid.

These are radical communists backed by George Soros who's main goal in life is to distroy America.

Beck while pretty shrill and far too angry far too often, was not mocking The One's daughter.

He was making a point about Obama and those who blindly follow him.

anyone with any sense can see that... provided they arent blinded by the light shining from The One's forhead.

geez

you may be right, but in bringing the President's daughter in the way he did has a bad appearance to many.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Sam, I agree and have said as much many times.

Beck should be careful.

however he said it, Media Matters certainly didnt represent it truthfully.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Well, we wouldn't have expected any "main stream media" to represent him or other Conservatives truthfully.

In my opinion, the "media" (Hollywood, network tv, Public tv, Federal Education System, etc.) are dominated by the god of this world and their agenda is anti-God and anti-righteousness.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

as much as I agree with you about "media" and mainstream media", we all need to know what the source is.

As much as CBS is co-opted in many ways, it is not an agenda driven organization created and paid for by an enemy of America.

Media Matters is 100% absolutly and organization created by one of the richest men in the world. That man, George Soros hates America and wants it either distroyed or remaid in the image of a European Socialist country and he is betting against the American Currency and when he does that, those nations fail economically... you should look into that.

Soros is pure evil and anything attached to him should be repudiated.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Charities supported by Soros

http://www.looktothestars.org/charit...omise-alliance

http://www.looktothestars.org/charit...nnium-villages

Founder of Central European University in Budapest

$50 million in late 1992 to help alleviate Bosnian suffering during their genocide in the former Yugoslavia

$12 million to the "Algebra Project" helping to improve the math skills of rural and inner city public school students throughout the country


He is also financially supporting, "Jobs For America NOW", a program designed at creating or saving one million federal jobs. This may be illegal because he is using one of his other charities, the "Economic Policy Institute" to funnel funds to assist in lobbying efforts of Congressmen to secure support for the Bill that would codify the job program.

So Soros has done a lot of good with his fortune!

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

I agree that Beck used poor taste...I just don't think Malia was the source of his ridicule, even though it came across that way.

Beck isn't my favorite personality anyway--he goes for the drama more than the facts, IMO.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

because the man has given money for some "good" things does not mean he is good, nor does it balance the bad that he is activly doing.

He has worked to distroy entire economies and has made billions doing it.

and i would not consider "saving federal jobs" to be a good thing.

In fact I cannot for the life of me, fathom a mindset that things saving federal jobs is anything other than insane.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Your statement is a sweeping generalization. There are plenty of Federal employees who are dedicated to their job and careers, many times working countless hours of unpaid overtime because the budget for their office isn't large enough for them to hire the proper number of people to accomplish the mission of their agency in the first place.

Look at Border Patrol Agency.

Look at the Department of Justice.


You have the folks who are employed by the Veterans Administration whose purpose is to help veterans with their hospital bills.

They are Federal employees too.

Every doctor, nurse and technical professional employed by the Veterans Administration are federal employees!


So your statement is false on many, many levels, for THOUSANDS of people.

Basically, you've drunk the kool-aid of the folks who seek to play on your dissatisfaction. They seek to misguide your criticisms in a way that ultimately makes your criticisms invalid and makes you seem hopelessly partisan.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Simply put...more government jobs equal more taxes.

That is why we don't need nor want more government jobs. PLUS MOST not all government run agencies do a worst job than private companies do.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

beck and rush mocked the story obama told, i dont think she asked him that either, he lies , and then he lies about his lies, how bout that

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

of course my statement was a sweeping generalization! LOL! you dont think I dont know that?

As I have already said, there is a role for government in keeping America safe and secure both at home and around the world.

That does not mean I think we need to "grow government" geez.

The idiot known as George Soros is evil and bad and wants to distroy america. I dont care if her persoanlly spoon feeds ever under nurished child in Africa.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

It would be more accurate to say, more govermnet workers = more oppression of American freedom.

Governemnt should be small, limited and very good at the things it should do.

Right now Goverment is large, over reaching and vastly ineffecient.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

Also, in defense of Beck, if anyone continued to watch his program to find out what did take place after he did this, he also repented for doing so too, relaizing he was wrong to bring this child into play concenring this. Doing so after his wife revealed to him he was wrong to do so. Beck finally receiving the chastisement telling about repenting for it on his program publicly.

So how can you beat someone admitting their error?????

Need I say more?

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

WHAT????

Talk about your "sweeping generalizations." Now you just make things up off the top of your head. BOGUS!

Federal employees are well compensated - way above the average of the private sector, and they receive huge bonuses and line up for a shot at "overtime" because the Federal Unions have guaranteed them huge compensation for it.

Do you even listen to yourself? Dude!

The VA exists so that Veterans DON'T HAVE hospital bills. That's why Vets line up at the VA. The people there work hard, but your "help pay their hospital bills..." statement is just weird. :blah

My little sister is a DAV - she lost her anterior cruciate in Bosnia back under BC's watch. I know all about the "VA experience" - and none of it involves a hospital bill (thankfully!).
Ferdando is wacky in many ways, but swilling Kool Aide has never been his forte. Government payrolls are swelling right now and the feather bedding and exorbitant pay is all a set up to reward Democrat Party faithful.

Consider this: a subway conductor in NYC makes over a QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS a year! http://www.businessinsider.com/mta-s...omas-redmond-9

Hard to feel sorry for these guys.

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

I speak of what I know, what I have witnessed and what I have personally experienced first hand while:

* working at the Dept of Justice from 2006 - 2008;

* patrolling the American / Mexican Border in Arizona in 2006; and

* I AM currently employed by the VA, working in a section called Fee Basis. In Orlando, though there are literally THOUSANDS of veterans, there IS NOT a VA hospital here. So we often send our veterans to the private hospitals in the area for their surgeries, treatments and etc.


As far as the UNCOMPENSATED OVERTIME, there are many, many Federal employees who are not compensated for their overtime. It is agreed upon BEFORE the employee accepts the position.


I speak of what I know, what I have witnessed and what I have experienced first hand.

I am sorry that your sister experienced this but I hope she is doing well today.


It seems to me that the whole "government payroll" stuff is always thrown in when discussing the Dems. However, while the GOP dominated the House and Senate from 2000 - 2006, you could hardly get ANYONE to investigate how much money was being spent inefficiently by the government for the war effort.

How much of your hard hard earned tax-dollars went to a fat cat employed by Halliburton?

KBR? Blackwater? Though not the government, they made their millions at the expense of the GOP dominated Federal government-- with very little, if any, tracking at all.


On this point, we agree that government spending is high, but people who make this argument the loudest seem to forget the BLATANT ABUSES of their own compadres.




BTW,
There are very few Americans I feel sorry for.

Sandy,

Re: Beck Mocks Malia
 

I think Beck does a great job keeping people advised about what Obama and his folloers are up to.
