Donald Duck Meets Glenn Beck

Off Topic Politics and World Issues
61

Here are some more to debunk ZEB:

On November 12, 2009, Beck said the following on his radio show:

â??Do you know in the health care bill, weâ??re now offering insurance for dogs? Do I need to say any more?â??

â??If you are somebody who is like, â??Well, I just, Iâ??m struggling and weâ??re barely making ends meet,â?? Iâ??m not paying for your dog cardiologist! Not gonna do it. Iâ??m sorry, the dog goes nighty-night.â??

Now, I want everyone to go through the bill and show me where weâ??re offering insurance for dogs. Itâ??s not there. Never was. Glenn Beck was lying his ass off.

But I canâ??t stop there. As long as I was doing research, I had to keep digging.

Just a couple of months ago, Beck started talking about â??anchor babiesâ?? and how something needed to be changed to keep babies who are born in this country from being granted automatic citizenship. On June 10, he said the following on his Fox TV show:

â??Why do we have automatic citizenship upon birth? Do you know? Weâ??re the only country in the world that has it. Why?â??

Uh, Glenn, did you think no one would check the facts? By the way, it is called â??jus soliâ??, which is Latin for â??law of groundâ??. Below is a list of other countries that offer automatic citizenship upon birth.

* American Samoa (birth in American Samoa renders American Samoan and U.S. nationalities, but no birthright to U.S. citizenship)
* Antigua and Barbuda
* Argentina
* Azerbaijan
* Barbados
* Belize
* Bolivia
* Brazil
* Canada
* Chile (children of transient foreigners or of foreign diplomats on assignment in Chile only upon request)
* Colombia
* Dominica
* Dominican Republic
* Ecuador
* El Salvador
* Fiji
* Grenada
* Guatemala
* Guyana
* Honduras
* Jamaica
* Lesotho
* Mexico
* Nicaragua
* Pakistan
* Panama
* Paraguay
* Peru
* Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
* Saint Christopher and Nevis
* Saint Lucia
* Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
* Trinidad and Tobago
* Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus
* Uruguay
* Venezuela

So Glenn, thatâ??s 36 additional countries that offer jus soli. Can you feel the heat emanating from your pants yet?

On the July 22, 2009 episode of his Fox show, Beck â?? who was still railing against health care legislation â?? made this claim:

â??I mean, weâ??ve got czars now. Czars like John Holdren, who has proposed forcing abortions and putting sterilants in the drinking water to control population.â??

Before I refute his claim, I must go off on a tangent and say this about â??czarsâ??. People have been complaining about Obama having all these â??Czarsâ??. I wonder how many of the complainers realize that Obama has a total of 33 Czars and George W. Bush had 45. Now back to Beckâ??s claim about John Holdren.

By the way if Beck is such a liar how come we’re not reading about all the lies he told about the filth that Obama has put in his administration. For example, not one word written about scum like Van Jones.

You Beck haters are pathetic. Just admit you don’t like the guy’s antics (or his political leanings), we can let it go at that.[/quote]

Here’s one way to read about those specific lies ZEB: Glenn Beck’s Attack On Van Jones: Fantasies & Falsehoods – Equal Justice Society

For the record I just think he’s a douche but not some major political threat and just like other dbags on the left side like Olbermann I have no earthly idea what draws people to be fans of this guy.

You are right about one thing, Obama has put some serious scumbags in his administration. I can post those links too lest you ad hominem me for being a liberal ;]

That is something that he tries specifically not to do.

I must have heard about 100 times by now that there are facts and conslusions drawn from these facts and that nobody needs to share his conclusions.

Also, he states again and again that he wants his listeners to check the facts he presents on his show.

So I am guessing you never listened to his show.

Case in point, Glenn Beck is dangerous:

“See now, I’ll tell you. Beck is going to deny everything about violent approach, deny everything about conspiracies, but he’ll give you every reason to believe it. He’s protecting himself, and you can’t blame him for that. But, I understand what he’s doing… And what I say is that if the truth incites violence, it means that we’ve been living too long in the lies.”

Well the guy’s a nutcase. beck just pushed him over the edge.

I said those things from the outset a long time ago and for some reason everyone began frothing at the mouth and asking me what he lied about. People who like beck seem to have such a hair trigger.

EDIT: the hair trigger is also what makes them so much fun. catch-22[/quote]

I wouldn’t say I have a hair trigger. I just enjoy exposing those (like you) who really don’t know what their talking about. And that to me is fun.

I think most of them were debunked earlier in the thread. But if I’m wrong that doesn’t mean I’m lying, I could just me mistaken :slight_smile:

I respect you for telling the truth. More people should be like you. They need to take a deep breath and realize that Beck sometimes acts like a jerk and is annoying. Oh and he also exposes the left for what it is. Which in itself can annoy people who actually vote (cough) democratic.

I agree, we’ve never had a President who has been this far left and the filth that he brought with him to office is unprecedented. If the country only new this before the election he never would have gotten elected. It’s a shame we don’t have an unbiased media. They could have exposed this ideologue before he had the opportunity to put his semi-socialist plans into action.

Excellent point orion. He almost pleads with people to check the facts and not believe anyone including him without doing your own homework.

But we shouldn’t be surprised by the outpouring of hate for Beck. When the left disagrees with what you have to say they try to destroy you. Beck also said he has been audited for the past 3 years. Coincidence? I think not.

three years ago bush was in office. three years ago beck was also working for cnn. coincidence? I think…wait, what?

EDIT: that would also be before he criticized geithner. all that is evidence of is that maybe he had some tax issues in the past. But you’re probably right, it’s probably a conspiracy, and a hell of a good one at that…an audit. that and cartoons are sure going to bring him down.

This shows how much you know about Beck, or politics in general for that matter. Glenn Beck was no George Bush fan. He attacked him regularly for his fiscally irresponsible ways. Beck also relentlessly attacked candidate Obama long before the democratic national convention. Huh? Pay attention junior.

The cartoons are only one tool. It’s the constant barrage by the vicious liberal media who really don’t want to hear anything bad about the chosen one. If they did their jobs Obama never would have even beaten Hillary in the primaries.

Cool story. However, in your post you said the it was the left going after him and it was all the lefties left left left blah blah blah same story. But it doesn’t hold water…imagine that. Your childish little audit conspiracy theory looks like, well, a childish little audit conspiracy theory. You should pay attention to your own posts.

This is what I said in my first post junior:

If you notice I didn’t say much about a conspiracy. Maybe it’s you that should pay better attention to my posts.

This statement is just not true; and it is part of the problem I have with Beck’s radical, unfounded claims that Obama is a socialist. Compare Obama’s policies to Nixon’s policies. Nixon, a republican, did the following:

  1. Clean Air Act of 1970
  2. Federal Water Pollution Control Act amendments of 1972
  3. Established the Environmental Protection Agency
  4. Established the Occupational Health and Safety Administration
  5. Established the Council on Envionmental Quality
  6. Established the Consumer Product Safety Commission
  7. Signed into law the Social Security Amendments of 1972 which included the creation of the Supplemental Security Income Program

This was all done by a republican. Health Care reform turned out to be a gift to the pharma/insurance industry, largely by dealing away the public option part. Finanaical reform was a joke, evidenced by the record breaking profits by Wall Street for the second year in a row. How is it that Obama’s a socialist and he hasn’t even tried to implement half the amount of the “liberal” policies that Nixon, a republican, did?

I know it would irreparably damage your ego to say it, but your audit theory is ridiculous. It’s unsubstantiated and doesn’t have an inkling of rationality. Keep trying to broaden this to some out of scope argument. What you said was dumb. Period. And let’s be serious, you’re the child here. You said something stupid, got called out, and are now grasping at straws throwing all the duds you got trying to cover your tracks.
And at such an advanced age, it’s quite a feat. You must have gotten a hell of a nap in today to still be up at this hour.

another evidence that obama is not an socialist is that socialists dont support him, they rather see someone like ralph nader as president.

and furthermore: imperialism is not a typical socialist policy, maybe a socialdemocrat or a stalinist could support imperialism, but not an genuin marxist.

and more: If obama was a socialist he would not have bailed out finance institusions, he would have made them property of the state.
