Look the funny thing about this whole thing is the fact some one on Beck's team put it on his website. If it wasn't there, I am sure enough to say, that some one like Mega would not have made this thread.

Amazing how often he has a rabbi on his show. Just last night again, come to think of it.

Must be some anti-jew rabbi.

Having a rabbi on his show does not prove, or even offer credible evidence, that he is not an anti-semite. I don't know or particularly care if he is, but your logic does not work.

Actually its my fault. I didn't realize I copied the blaze link over and thought I only had the link on top of the quote box. I have asked a mod to edit the second link out to make this thread hopefully flow a little better.

I apologize to those I called stupid, I did not realize what I did.

The opposite of guilt by association is redemption by association. This is fallacious Beck logic 101 stuff here.

Not stupid. I didn't see your site listed. Just not used to people listing sites first without something verbal first. Just me is all.

Besides see post #41, I added my ETA to say I did find it.

Sorry you're having a bad day. If I had anything good to share with you I would. Hopefully the rest of the day will be better for you. :drink:

Please provide your source regarding the restraining order via Beck. I didn't see anything in The Blaze article on this. I saw Stewart with a bunch of puppets pretending to be Beck. Nothing in the videos about a restraining order that I remember.

Can you help me out here? Thanks.

:confused:

ETA: Per Soccerboy22's info and site info, I found the link. Wondering though, the info on Beck's page is the exact same quote as a poster on the Blaze page. Did Beck's writer quote him or vice versa. Interesting.

Guess John Stewart will continue to make $$$$ off of Beck's tantrums. I mean in the grand scheme of things ... who cares.

You have to admit though, the Stewart bit was funny. I was laughing so hard I almost fell out of my desk chair.
 
Should Glenn seek a restraining order on Jon Stewart?

Jon Stewart is still obsessed with Glenn. His whole life seems to revolve around what Glenn says and does. Last night he devoted 66% of his entire show to Glenn - joking about the Soros expose. Glenn can take a joke, that's completely fine, but this is just getting creepy.


OK the above seems to be the only thing any of us can find, then it goes to The blaze and Jon stewart.
We don't know who wrote it, but it wasn't Glenn and it seems the person was just asking a question. Probably in a sarcastic manner. You have to listen to their show to know how they operate. They even say Glenn can take a joke but this is creepy. They don't even say Glenn thinks it's creepy, which I doubt he does. I don't find it creepy either. It's Stewart doing what he does best.
This whole thread has been a joke.

"Puppet Master", "bloodsucker", "head of the snake"...

All of these things come straight out of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion - a well-known and vehemently anti-Semitic book.

If it wasn't problematic, then why are Jewish leaders so upset?
Beck Attacks Soros, Jewish Leaders Outraged

This is why I don't like Beck. He stretches the truth so far that it can no longer be considered true even if it's a distant cousin to it.

Here is Soros' personal story as a boy in Hungary (a Jew in hiding with a non-Jewish family): His non-Jewish "father" who was protecting him informed him that some letters he was asked to deliver to people were deportation letters. He told George to deliver them, but to warn each family so that they may flee.

Beck turned this into: "He aided the Nazis in the deportation of Jews".

Do you see how that could be considered a lie?

Sorry, but he's crossed a line here that decent people shouldn't cross.

They took a Blaze member's comment and used it as the "header" for what they were going to discuss on the day's show.
 
Glenn wife should make him check into mental ward and be done with it

ADL's massive flip flop on Beck

The Anti-Defamation League has launched an attack on Glenn, claiming that the special on George Soros was somehow anti-semitic. No one has been a bigger friend to the Jewish people and to Israel than Glenn. You'd think the ADL knew that - oh wait, they did! And they made that especially clear in a letter PRAISING Glenn for his support of Jewish people and of Israel. That letter of praise, from ADL's National Director Abe Foxman, was written waaaaay back on October 22nd - OF THIS YEAR! Looks like the ADL was for Glenn Beck before they were against him. Glenn explains more on the flip flop on radio today. ( Transcript,

Glenn Beck - Show Recap



I don't normally do Beck stuff, but I caught this one on reddit and its quite funny. What is your opinion, should Beck go for a restraining order or should he be an adult?

Also, I fail to see how a restraining order would prevent satire. Its not like Jon follows the guy around personally or anything.

This could be the dumbest question asked in a long time here. Explain to me why Glenn would want one on Stewart and explain why a court wouldnt laugh him out of the courtroom? Hey why wouldnt Obama get a restraining order on Hannity? Or Mel Gibson get a restraining order on TMZ.com? :confused:
Besides the question at hand.... Glenn is excellent to point at and make jokes. He provides oodles of great material. Heck Beck himself is a joke.

Don't get so excited. It's sarcasm. There's no way Beck would really get a restraining order on Stewart simply because he talks about him a lot. Only people who never listen to Beck would conjure up such nonsense.

He does seem to be the #1 target for many people. Lots of money and time is going into trying to bring him down.

Not all liberals are but the few on DP who are,
Maybe
They are jealous of his success?...
They hate guys that look like the pillsbury doughboy?
They hate mormons?
They are afraid of the truth?
They are jealous of his money?
They are being paid by Media Matters to try and discredit him?
They like to start threads that will irritate people who watch him?
They hate Fox news?
They are afraid he'll influence voters away from the left?
They are afraid he will get people to pray?
They are afraid people will buy gold?
They are afraid people will stock up on food?
They hate people who don't think like them?
Hec, I don't know and I'm running out of ideas. Maybe they'll tell us themselves.

You are asking the wrong question.
The Conservatives are obessed with Glenn!
People that have intuition, common sense and know the difference between entertainment VS true factual reporting are the ones facinated at Conservatives that like him. Heck Im not liberal. I just know a schock-jock entertainer when I see one. I laugh AND cringe at the people that truely DO take Glenn seriously. I feel the people that agree with me are facinated at how Beck lures these "fish" in with his bait.
