Glenn Beck likens Norwegian dead to Hitler youth | Media | The Guardian

"There was a shooting at a political camp, which sounds a little like the Hitler youth, or, whatever. I mean, who does a camp for kids that's all about politics. Disturbing,"

Seriously...... I have no words for how bad this utter stupidity moronic comment is....I surely hope everyone on the US right distances themselves from this moron and his beliefs.... this comment is not only inaccurate, but hurtful and disrespectful to the dead and their families.

Shame on you Glenn Beck.
 
Ignore it, really, let him wallow it his own filth. Don't give him the time of day.
 
Beck does realize the Tea Party has camps for kids as well right? Or what about that move Jesus Camp? I bet Beck is fine with both of those camps. Then again this is the man who in an argument with the CPUSA chairmen Sam Web tried to say that nazis were socialist because they had in their name. because Hitler would never lie to exploit the moral force that used to be socialism,I mean he was such an honest man.
 
I haven't listened to the clip, but that's a pretty thoughtless comment to make when talking about the deaths of so many young people, especially given the Nazi occupation of Norway in the Second World War. I never thought I'd agree with PeteEU on anything, but "Shame on you, Glenn Beck." does seem to sum it up fairly well.
 
Meh. Just another idiot pundit from across the pond who has no ****ing clue what he's talking about. I was actually shocked when I read about this earlier today. The abject ignorance and callous disrespect were a little overwhelming for a few seconds. But then I considered the source, picked up the few IQ points I'd lost and moved on. Beck is so far gone, making fun of him at this point would be like throwing stones at the village idiot.

I honestly don't know why anyone is ever shocked by anything Glenn Beck says. It's like being outraged by a professional wrestler.

It's a wonder why Fox News didn't want him on air, lol.

****ing idiot.

Beck is no ****ing idiot. He is crazy like a FOX. He is making a fortune off of other ****ing idiots though.

I think FOXNews is the perfect place for him. That's where all the ****ing idiots gather to get their daily swill. Why they are cutting him loose is beyond me? Where else do you have such a gathering of ****ing idiots? It's like fishing in a barrel.

Double post. dammit. My bad. sorry.
 
Well I mean Norway had camps with blonde hair blue eyed kids and that is what Germany wanted. Plus both countries are in Europe AND they have the common letters of 'n', 'r', and 'y'.

edit: OH SNAP the 'r' is the third letter in each country's name too and 'y' is the last!

Coincidence? I think not. :)
 
*Looks through posts*

Funny, I don't see any of the obligatory "Liberals will use any excuse to bash Beck" posts in this thread. Could it be that he actually said something terrible enough that even Beckerheads realize that it's aweful?

He has a point. Why on earth would a political party set up a camp such as this? Brainwashing, perhaps?

Why would that even be an issue with anyone considering what happened? How exactly does that overshadow the fact that kids were slaughtered by a nutcase fundamentalist?

How does the fact they kids were slaughtered by a nutcase fundamentalist overshadow the fact that the camp was intended for political indoctrination and worthy of discussion?
 
It is no secret that the religious right in the US are practically synonomous with rightwing politics and there are church camps and indoctrination "academies" all over the place down south. Anybody got any problem with that?

it was? do you have some info on this camp?

Because you are working off of pure speculation. You have no clue what the intention of the camp was other than it was politically motivated. We know that a nutcase slaughtered a bunch of innocent people. The fact that Glenn Beck would focus his attention on something that he doesn''t actually know to be a fact considering the horrific incident that happened is disgusting, frankly. I can't imagine that anyone would actually defend his asinine behavior other than for partisan reasons.
 
It was run by a political party. Whatcha think?

It was run by a political party, but your assessment that it was used for brainwashing or indoctrination are purely speculation. You have no clue what the camps were actually like.

aheeemm did you read the article?

However, his latest comments about the "disturbing" nature of political youth camps may come as a surprise to Beck's followers in the Tea Party movement.


The anti-tax, anti-immigration movement has been holding summer camps in states including Florida and Missouri where children have been taught a curriculum based on God, the US constitution and "the defence of economic liberty".

They are talking about the Tea Party here.
