Glenn Beck | One of the Top '10 Most Facinating People'

Glenn Beck has been named among Barbara Walters (better known as “BawBa”) ‘10 Most Fascinating People of 2009’. The interview is going to shown on ABC next Wednesday, 10 pm ET.
Though he is the topic of conversation and attacked brutally by the media relentlessly, he manages to be quite successful. Beck is doing it big with two bestsellers on the NY Times List, his show on Fox News is num. 2, he is successful in his radio program, his ‘Bold Fresh Tour’ is sold out, and his stage show, “The Christmas Sweater – A Return To Redemption..LIVE!” which is playing in selective theaters around the country. Not to mention, he is the man responsible for outing Van Jones and other WH commie lovers like Anita Dunn.
Whatever your thoughts are on Glenn Beck, he is indeed intriguing. His personality is unlike any other. What I enjoy most about him is that he doesn’t seek the approval of others which allows him to be forward and real. He will tell you what he thinks without reservation and you may or may not like his opinions but you should respect that rare quality. My only issue with Beck is his continuous bashing of the Republicans as if they are equivalent to the Democrats, I understand what he is inferring but when you have to choose between mediocre and awful (awful referring to Dems of course), you definitely want mediocre. The Republicans are not supporting the Crap & Tax bill or the devastating Health Crap Bill. That’s an enormous difference in my book and one to praise!
Btw…Sarah Palin is also included in Wednesdays Barbara Walters Special.
(Walters is a total lefty but she sure knows how to pull in viewers for her special! A very smart move on her part as it guarantees her ratings to double if not more)

Anita Dunns Husband New Job In The Administration | What?

It was very dramatic! Watching Glenn Beck this evening, the phone rang (GB's tip line) and after Beck spoke with someone on the other side of the line, anonymous of course, he puts the phone down and makes a somewhat shocking announcement. I'm not sure whats going on but if I heard what I think I just heard...
Anita Dunn's husband is working in the Whitehouse now? Does he look to Mao too? Is he another Mao lover?

Scary!
I hope I'm wrong...

The Usual Misleading Media | Glenn Becks New Book

Shocked…well not exactly, it’s come to be expected that the media, like crazy dictators, can disgorge false or manipulated information all while looking at you with a straight face. Then again, if you consider the fact that these people probably have the title of journalist under their names on their business cards, you really shouldn't be alarmed. It just goes to show you how much they appreciate a good joke...calling themselves journalists is a very funny but scary joke!
Anyway, I doubt that its some big secret that politicians, pundits, writers, so called “journalist”, skew and slant polling, statistics, or any other data to fit their particular needs at that particular time. It is also commonplace that (though it’s unethical to do so) many cut out certain aspects of data, interviews, quotes, or whatever in order to make claims supporting their argument which, as I’m sure you'll agree, is deceitful and misleading.

During some show, I cant exactly remember, a pundit or host included a misleading snippet of a part of Becks new book, “Arguing with Idiots”, he offers his list of people he thinks are the “Top Ten Bastards of All Time”. It’s not that the initial claim was false, all the people that were stated were indeed on the list. It was the fact that it was misleading to the viewers and though I am embarrassed to admit this, I too was fooled.
Here is the story, the WHOLE story...the list includes expected bastards like Bernie Madoff, Keith Olbermann, Hitler, FDR, etc. Along with their names, there is a quick sentence as to why which is the part that was conveniently left out. This person stated that Tiger Woods was on the list and because of that fact, it was concluded that Glenn Beck was crazy. I foolishly didn’t look into it further and went along with that assessment as I too thought it was a bit odd that he would insult someone by putting them on a list with such awful people.

Well I purchased the book today totally at random; I had no intention of getting it and had even forgotten about the whole discussion. While I was flipping through the pages what appeared before me…none other than the list! Yes, Tiger Woods is undeniably listed but you have to read Beck answer as to why…

2. Tiger Woods – He’s got a Swedish-supermodel wife, a zillion dollars, and he plays golf for a living . . . bastard!

It was obviously a joke. The libs do remember what those are…right? Beck is not a journalist nor did he ever claim to be. He is a commentator who also happens to be a pretty funny. Even without knowing that, if you read the sentence right next to Woods’ name, unless you are a complete and utter idiot, you cannot make any other deduction than it being a JOKE. I know we can stretch many things Beck says and when done, he can sound nutty to some but to purposely try and deceive the public into thinking something by presenting a portion of the story is dishonest.

…I didn’t think I would write so much about this because it’s not that big of a deal but it just irritated me as soon as I saw the book…how irresponsible to not present the full statement when it’s something that can be deceptive if not presented in its entirety.
