Glenn Beck's Alaska trip

Some of what I say here is speculation but that is what @stopbeck is engaged in so fair is fair isn't it?  There is one thing that is absolute fact and that is Glenn Beck did not announce his event in Alaska until Sep 1.   @stopbeck claims Glenn Beck has been talking about this for weeks and that is a bald faced lie.  I listen to Glenn Beck more than he does and I know for a fact he did not say anything on his show about it until last week.   In fact here is the actual announcement http://www.therightscoop.com/glenn-beck-hints-that-hes-cooking-something-up-with-sarah-palin   It was very low key and Glenn did not promote it very much at all.  I think Glenn Beck chose Sep 11 not because it was the anniversary of 911 but it was a convenient date in regard to his schedule.   If he were to do it on Sep 4th which was stated as the original plan it would have required a very long plane trip at the beginning of his vacation.  I think he wanted to get settled in and have fun with his family in Idaho and then at the end go up to Alaska for this event.  Common sense would have dictated that he do it on 9-12 which is the name of his organization but since he as a Mormon observes the sabbath he decided to do it on a Saturday which is Coincidentally the 9th anniversary of 911.  Compare what I say here to @stopbeck's  and see what you think makes more sense.  http://stopbeck.com/2010/09/10/glenn-beck-fires-back-at-critics-of-his-paid-911-event/

Stopbeck lying about Glenn Beck's phone

Stopbeck constantly tweets that Glenn Beck's red phone is not hooked up and the White House doesn't have the phone number.   He always says his source is the Wall Street Journal.  Watch the 2:13 mark of this video where Glenn Beck debunks this falsehood.

glenn beck and the bailout

Today @stopbeck tweeted
StopBeck This may come as a surprise: but @glennbeck was for the bailout, before he was against it: http://bit.ly/cGh1DR

While this may be true Stopbeck implies that Glenn Beck was for the bailout for a long time.  The truth is Glenn Beck was only for Tarp a total of 2 days.  He was against it when tarp came up for a vote Here is the real story from Glenn Beck himself.   http://vodpod.com/watch/2623606-glenn-beck-admits-to-supporting-tarp

Stopbeck blames Glenn Beck for violence.

1n, 1831 William Lloyd Garrison  started publishing his antislavery newspaper The Liberator in Boston. Garrison's clear and unabashed abolitionist views expressed in his press were not well received, even in the North. Eight months later, on August 21, Nat Turner led a group of slaves on a bloody rampage through Southampton County, Virginia. Turner and his band eventually killed at least 55 white men, women, and children before they were stopped by the Virginia militia. Turner initially escaped capture by hiding out, but he was caught on October 30, tired and then hanged on November 11. Many Southerners blamed Garrison and his newspaper for bringing abolitionist views to their slaves' knowledge and thus fomenting insurrection. Of course most slaves couldn't read and the circulation of The Liberator was not of much significance this early in its career, but nonetheless, such views were not to be tolerated in the slave states.

The reason I bring this little story up is because @stopbeck seems to want to blame Glenn Beck for some violence in our modern times.  He tweeted today:
Disturbing. From @mmfa: "The CA cop shooter and @glennbeck: Here's what we know" http://bit.ly/dmDerR

Now if @stopbeck is going to blame Glenn Beck for inciting this guy in California  surely he is prepared to blame American hero William Lloyd Garisson for the murderous acts of Nat Turner.

Stopbeck lies about Glenn Beck being racist

Stopbeck never stops trying to spread misleading information. Today he tweeted:

ICYMI: Glenn Beck says that Obama's "reaction" to typical white people has been "bred into him" http://bit.ly/c06Wte

This link is purposely misleading because it cut out the fact that Glenn Beck and Pat Gray are commenting on this Racist comment Obama said last year.




AS you can see Glenn Beck was only commenting on the fact that Barack Obama had said that his white grandmother had been "bred" a certain way and then went on in a facetious way to illustrate that point.   I am certain that Stopbeck already knew this since he claims to listen to all of Glenn Beck's shows. Crooks and liars says that Glenn Beck is viciously smearing Obama's parents yet we know they were Communists from Barack Obama's own book.  

Stopbeck does not recognize black patriots. Lies about purple heart.

I watched Glenn Beck's show last night about the black founders of our country.  It was an inspiring look at the contributions of African Americans that history has forgotten.  http://www.watchglennbeck.com/  
At one point Glenn Beck pointed to a picture of prince whipple a black man who crossed the Delaware with George Washington.   Stopbeck must have been angry at this because he tweeted.

Note to cretinous fraud @glennbeck: Don't let the name fool you. Prince Whipple was a slave. SIIIIIIGH.

Wow. Glenn Beck opens show by pointing to slave, characterizes him as "helping row the boat." Uhhh, not by choice fool!

These are Stopbeck's only two comments regarding the astounding feats we heard about in this show about the black founders.      Among the accomplishments mentioned was the first black speaker of the house in the 1870's.  I would like to ask Stopbeck if he really thinks that patriot african americans where only fighting because they were FORCED or whether they also fought out of patriotism and valor?  If Stopbeck is going to dismiss the accomplishments of those who were forced into war then maybe he ought to dismiss all those who were drafted to fight for America in Various wars.     Is he going to say they only fought because they were forced to?  Stopbeck also lied a couple of day earlier when he tweeted.

Bizarre: @glennbeck attacks purple heart recipients, suggests that receiving it lacks integrity and honor. Uhhhh....

Glenn Beck did nothing of the sort.  He just said that a person gets a purple heart for being wounded but George Washington awarded badges of merit for valor.    The next day Glenn Beck said he proudly displays two purple hearts given to him by servicemen in his office at home.  Here is the transcript of what Stopbeck says is disparaging of purple heart recipients. 

GLENN: We have our first announcement on 8/28, Restoring Honor. I want to tell you the beginnings now of what I have planned in August and you need to start making plans today to attend. In 1780 George Washington developed a badge of merit. It is what our Purple Heart is modeled after. He only awarded, for the records that we have found, he only awarded three of these damages of merit. At the time the world only gave medals and badges and everything else to officers, but he was looking to create in his words an honorable and Christian army. He was looking to build people of integrity, people who understood merit and honor. He said the road to glory in a free country is open to all. It was the first time that anybody had ever done that, looking at the farmer and saying you don't have to be an officer and do something honorable. It was not about the Purple Heart, surprisingly. The Purple Heart was modeled after the badge of merit after they were found in 1933. And that's when we started awarding purple hearts. But it was not for honor. It was just for being wounded. That's not what the badge of merit was under George Washington. He used to keep the names in a book called the book of merit. He talked about it in his writings in 1782. The book has never been found. But the badges have been. We're going to restore honor by restoring the road to glory that in a free country is open to all. We are going to begin awarding badges of merit. We're designing them now and they are — I haven't decided if we're going to make them into actual medals that you would pin on a chest or wear like the medal of honor or if it's just a badge, exactly the way George Washington intended.

Stopbeck lies about Glenn Beck and Hitler

Last night Stopbeck went back to his old tactic of lying again.  He tweeted.

@chrislhayes That he does. Here he is tying Jesus...to Hitler. http://bit.ly/9kTIjG

With a link to this page on his blog   http://stopbeck.com/2010/03/11/caption-contest/
This is an outright lie because I have the transcript of what Glenn Beck said when that picture was on his show. 

GLENN BECK: I think people want somebody who have room for doubt, but also have the confidence. I think Jesus Christ and Hitler had a lot in common, and that was they could both look you in the eye and say, "I`ve got an answer for you, follow me." One was evil; one was good. But they both could look you in the eye and have an answer for you. There are very few politicians right now that can look you in the eye and you believe it.

I have asked stopbeck to denounce Hamas which is a racist hate group on par with the Nazi's yet he can't find it within himself to do that.    Who is the one that has something in common with Hitler?  If you say Stopbeck I wouldn't fault you.

UPDATE: 
Now Stopbeck has added onto his lie about Glenn Beck with a lie about me.   I asked him to emphatically state that Glenn Beck knows the difference between Jesus and Hitler and he refuses.   He also still will not denounce murderous racist hate group Hamas.   He tweeted the following to someone this morning.

StopBeck @asleep_awake That guy has threatened me w/ physical violence and harassed me for months. Why would he think he deserves a response from me?

This tweet is categorically untrue I have NEVER threatened him with physical violence and he knows it.  Lying is the greatest tool a progressive has and Stopbeck has once again stooped to using it.   I feel sorry for him.   His life and work is a lie.

Stopbeck lies about Glenn Beck mocking the poor

Stopbeck tweets constantly about Glenn Beck supposedly mocking the poor.  He has a webpage where he quotes Glenn Beck as saying  "'Sorry, I only carry hundreds.' It gets em every time" http://stopbeck.com/2009/12/02/glenn-beck-urges-fans-to-mock-the-poor/   This is dishonesty at it's highest level .  Below I will quote the full contents of what Glenn Beck said in his Nov 24th e-mail.  (yahoo mail search comes in handy)   If one reads what is written and then clicks on the link to the FULL TRANSCRIPT you will see that Glenn Beck was not talking about poor people but professional swindlers and that Democrat Andrew Cuomo was cracking down on them.  So Glenn Beck and Andrew Cuomo are on the same page and Stopbeck is exposed as the fraud that he is.  One more thing looking at the quote it is probably fair to say that Glenn Beck didn't even write the email or the quote that Stopbeck cites because the Author refers to Glenn in third person.  It was probably his Sidekick Stu who wrote it.

Have you ever been asked this by some random panhandler? A good response is 'Sorry, I only carry hundreds.' It gets em every time. Here in New York, there are a particularly annoying group of people with tables who yell at everyone who passes 'Can't you find it in your heart to give to the homeless?'. Considering New York has laws that guarantee shelter and food for the homeless, Glenn has long been suspicious of these tables and finally got some long awaited confirmation.

GLENN: May I give the story, just in time for the holidays. State authorities are going for the jugular. (Laughing). Seeking to banish forever the panhandling pests who clog Manhattan's busiest corners with folding tables and plastic water bottles. Believe me, if you are in some place else in the country, this, this story is going to be worth it to you. Because it is the definition of the progressive movement. State attorney general Andrew Cuomo filed suit yesterday charging United Homeless Organization is a scam run by con artists who pocket most of the change they collect. Hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. I know this to be true because I have pictures of them taking the money. The beggars, most of whom claim to be street people, say that the money tossed into their jugs go to the homeless. It does, the suit says. They just don't bother to tell you that they're talking about themselves. UHO founder Stephen Riley and director Myra Walker take a big cut of the money to fund personal shopping sprees at Gamestop, Home Shopping Network, Bed, Bath & Beyond, P. C. Richard, as well as their monthly cable bills, legal papers charge. Riley, the co‑founder of this organization, is a beefy 60‑year‑old who shamelessly used the donated dollars which are supposed to be used to feed the... "Doesn't anybody have a heart to help feed the homeless?" He used the money to pay for his Weight Watchers food.




STU: That's unreal. Unreal.



PAT: That's great.



GLENN: This is ‑‑ now so you understand, you can't just set up a table in New York. No, no, no. You need license, you need a license, you need everything else. So unless you're going to be busted, you have to have city approval to be on the streets.



Stu, you are looking like ‑‑



STU: I don't know if that's made clear in this article. They do pay a fee to the organization which is licensed. So I think that it does essentially, yeah. Indirectly.



GLENN: The organization has to be licensed by the city, yeah. I mean, you'll have ‑‑ these guys have to have a license on them, whether they got it or the city ‑‑ or the organization got it is irrelevant. But you just don't set up a table and sell Snickers bars, you know, for your Cub Scouts in New York.



STU: Right.



GLENN: You don't do it. You need a license.



PAT: So the guy with the purses is licensed?



GLENN: No, the guy with the purses ‑‑



STU: Probably not.



PAT: Because that ‑‑



GLENN: If you'll notice, that guy has ‑‑ usually they set them up on the ground and they are on like a big, like a big sheet, like a big black sheet.



PAT: Okay, yeah.



GLENN: Okay? That's so they can pick up the four corners.



PAT: And go when they need to?



GLENN: And run when she see a cop.



PAT: What about shoe shine guy? Licensed?



GLENN: Yeah, licensed.



PAT: Him I like.



STU: Mr. Softy?



GLENN: Mr. Shoe shine guy is nice.



PAT: He is great.



GLENN: We walk by him every day.



PAT: He's yelling at everybody, "You are coming like that to Midtown Manhattan? You don't look like that. With those shoes? Those don't work in Mid ‑‑ you are in the big time now!" I love that guy, love that guy.



GLENN: He is fantastic. He, I've actually had my shoes shined by this guy. They don't need to be shined because he yells at you every day. He is like, you are a disgrace!



PAT: Yeah.



GLENN: You are a disgrace, wearing those shoes ‑‑



PAT: In Midtown Manhattan!



GLENN: You are a disgrace!



PAT: Great.



GLENN: It's fantastic.



PAT: Great.



GLENN: Anyway, so this is a con. Now, here's why I say this is a quintessential example of progressivism. First of all, the progressive New York would like to give licenses to this organization. So this organization goes and does this. Anybody who lives in New York knows it's a sham. They know it's a con. But the city doesn't do anything about it.



STU: Yeah, it's really for no other reason other than it really seems like a con. Like I didn't have any evidence. You saw pictures.



GLENN: It's a con. You can sense it. Your gut. I've lived here for how many years now? Four years, five years? I knew this was a con about the third week I got here. I put in money, and Adam said to me ‑‑ I remember. I was walking, and I was walking by and I reached into my pocket and had I think a $20 bill and I put it in there and Adam said, "Sucker." And I said, you know what? I'm just going to let it go. What they do with the money's their own business. And then every day I walk by it and I'm like, something's wrong with that. And then started, you know, taking pictures of them taking the money and putting it into their own pockets.



Now, I can't be the only one in New York, and the City of New York has decided that a good jobs program is to institutionalize panhandling. The only difference between somebody saying, "Hey, man, can you spare some change" and these people is the table. Because what's the difference between walking by somebody every day who's standing in the same place every single day going, "Oh, come on, can you spare some change, man? I'm just trying to get a place to sleep," and passing somebody with a table that says to you every day, "Doesn't anybody have the heart." They are both getting the money.

Stopbeck and the clean water act

Stopbeck is once again blatantly lying by leaving info out of the story.   On his blog post at http://jenkinsear.com/2010/03/01/glenn-beck-willful-misinformer-extraordinaire/#comment-916

Below is a comment I left on stopbecks blog.  If you do not see it on his blog he has deleted it in an effort to hide the truth.

You conveniently leave out any mention of the actual arguments against this act. You are trying to paint Glenn Beck as just being against clean water when that is not true. This post is doing exactly what it accusses Glenn Beck of doing. Read this Website for info on why conservatives and people who respects landowners rights are against the act. http://www.nationalcenter.org/TSR062408.html

If you do not allow this to stay posted on your blog it will be proof that you do not value the truth.

Update:   It has been two days and so far Stopbeck has not allowed my comment to be allowed on his blog. Perhaps he only lets those people who agree with him say things on it.  This is what liberals really believe in censorship.  How else do you explain working tirelessly day in and day out to silence Glenn Beck?  No alternative point of view is allowed by these Stalinists.

Glenn Beck Mormonism and Social justice

A lot has been been made about Glenn Beck's remarks about social justice.  Some point out that the gospel says people should be charitable to others and they are right.    This is far different than using government authority to force people to do good.   Mormon theology states that man has free agency and when man is forced to do good that is contrary to the gospel.   Some have quoted various mormons on this subject but most are personal opinion from those who do not have authority to speak for the church.  If a person wants to know the teachings of the mormon church all they have to do is look up what the actual leaders are saying.  In his official capacity Dallin Oakes Mormon Apostle stated in October 2009 the following.

"Along with many other religious people, we affirm that God is the ultimate source of power and that, under Him, it is the people’s inherent right to decide their form of government. Sovereign power is not inherent in a state or nation just because its leaders have the power that comes from force of arms. And sovereign power does not come from the divine right of a king, who grants his subjects such power as he pleases or is forced to concede, as in Magna Carta. As the preamble to our constitution states: “We the People of the United States . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution.”

This principle of sovereignty in the people explains the meaning of God’s revelation that He established the Constitution of the United States “that every man may act . . . according to the moral agency which I have given unto him, that every man may be accountable for his own sins in the day of judgment” (Doctrine and Covenants 101:78). In other words, the most desirable condition for the effective exercise of God-given moral agency is a condition of maximum freedom and responsibility — the opposite of slavery or political oppression. With freedom we can be accountable for our own actions and cannot blame our conditions on our bondage to another. This is the condition the Lord praised in the Book of Mormon, where the people — not a king — established the laws and were governed by them (see Mosiah 29:23–26). This popular sovereignty necessarily implies popular responsibility. Instead of blaming their troubles on a king or tyrant, all citizens are responsible to share the burdens of governing, “that every man might bear his part” (Mosiah 29:34)."

Keith Olbermann and the poor old lady

From Multi-Millionare Keith Olbermann's special comment October 2009 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33224967/

Months ago, I got in line at a drug store here. A woman ahead of me, obviously a familiar figure to the young pharmacist behind the country, trying, with mixed success, to take in the gentle explanation. You have maxed out your prescriptions on that insurance, the professional said slowly. I can't give it to you.

The customer shook her head in resignation. It was like the Medieval Courts of Chancery (ph), where if you were poor, you could take your lawsuit against the rich or the government and hope that when they hear the handful of cases to be heard that year, they picked somehow yours.

If they didn't, you could try again next year or, in some cases, every year for 20 next years. The woman who needed the prescription spoke even more slowly than the pharmacist just had. She almost had no hope in her voice. Try the Cigna please.
Another drug store late at night and the pharmacist there was a friend of mine. "You have to do something about this," he said loudly as he handed me my refill. He reached for somebody else's prescription. "You see this? Anti-fungal cream. I just filled this. You know what this cost wholesale? Four dollars. You know what I sell it for? Two hundred sixty three dollars. I sell it for less and I get fired, and maybe we lose our license."

 Now was the next sentence from Keith Olbermann "I took pity on the woman and paid the bill myself" ? Sadly no Keith changed the subject and started ranting about how unfair our healthcare system is.
I will give Keith some credit though.   At least he used this story to tell us how selfish and unfeeling the american taxpayer is for not paying that poor old ladies bills.  Then again maybe if one of us had been there we might have kindly offered to pay for the womans drugs from our own pocket instead of having the government forcefully take it from someone else to pay for it.

stoprush and the word Negroes.

@stoprush is using his blog to drum up anti Rush Limbaugh propoganda the same way liberals always do it.   They tell half truths.   Yes Rush Limbaugh said what stoprush quoted him as saying but it was in the context of satire  after Harry Reid was said to have called Barack Obama a "light skinned negro".    Harry Reid admits that he said it and it is also reported that Bill Clinton said Barack Obama should be serving him coffee rather than running for president.    Rush Limbaugh combined the sentiments of two liberals who have never been accused of Racism and @stoprush tried to make hay out of it.   Liberals have been guilty of fabricating supposed racist statements made by Rush Limbaugh in the past.    Rush has threatened to sue them and blogs such as the Huffington Post have been forced to make retractions.   Some liberals might not be aware that Rush Limbaughs call screener Bo Snerdley whose real name is James Golden is black himself. 

stoprush lies about Rush Limbaugh

@Stoprush  recently spread an unfounded lie that Rush Limbaugh made prejudice statements about Jews.   This is categorically false.    Here is what Norman Podoretz wrote on the subject.  I sure hope @stoprush tweets again correcting his false allegation.

A Statement from Norman Podhoretz,



Author of "Why Are Jews Liberals?"


January 21, 2010





In my new book, "Why Are Jews Liberals?", I argue that it no longer makes any sense for so many of my fellow Jews to go on aligning themselves with the forces of the Left. I also try to show that our interests and our ideals, both as Americans and as Jews, have come in recent decades to be better served by the forces of the Right.






In the course of describing and agreeing with the book the other day, Rush Limbaugh cited a few of the numerous reasons for the widespread puzzlement over the persistence of liberalism within the American Jewish community. And while discussing those reasons, he pointed to the undeniable fact that for “a lot of people”--prejudiced people, as he called them twice--the words “banker” and “Wall Street” are code words for "Jewish." Was it possible, he wondered, that Obama’s attacks on bankers and Wall Street were triggering a certain amount of buyer’s remorse within the American Jewish community, which gave him 78% of its vote? Finally, taking off from my observation that many Jewish liberals like to call themselves independents, he wondered whether a fair number of the self-described independents who deserted Obama and voted for Scott Brown might actually have been Jewish liberals. If so, he concluded, Brown’s “victory could be even more indicative of an even bigger change in the political temper of the country than has so far been recognized.”






For this, Rush Limbaugh has been subjected to a vile attack by Abraham Foxman, the national director of the Anti-Defamation League. Of course, Mr. Foxman has a long history of seeing an anti-Semite under every conservative bed while blinding himself to the blatant fact that anti-Semitism has largely been banished from the Right in the past forty years, and that it has found a hospitable new home on the Left, especially where Israel is concerned. This makes Foxman a perfect embodiment of the phenomenon I analyze in "Why Are Jews Liberals?" Now Foxman has the chutzpah to denounce Rush Limbaugh as an anti-Semite and to demand an apology from him to boot. Well, if an apology is owed here, it is the national director of the Anti-Defamation League who should apologize for the defamatory accusation of anti-Semitism that he himself has hurled against so loyal a friend of Israel as Rush Limbaugh.

Rush Limbaugh agrees with Frederick Douglass

Liberals are fond of saying Rush Limbaugh is racist but so far all they can do is fabricate quotes in an effort to smear him.  Rush Limbaugh is actually the champion of black people.   He wants government off their backs.  Rush is on a mission to destroy the statists who would have us believe that black people need  the government or a white person to help them in order to suceed.    Unlike Democrats  Rush Limbaugh believes black people are capable of taking care of themselves. His philosophy regarding black people can be summed up in this quote from Frederick Douglass

Everybody has asked the question. . ."What shall we do with the Negro?" I have had but one answer from the beginning. Do nothing with us! Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us. Do nothing with us! If the apples will not remain on the tree of their own strength, if they are wormeaten at the core, if they are early ripe and disposed to fall, let them fall! I am not for tying or fastening them on the tree in any way, except by nature's plan, and if they will not stay there, let them fall. And if the Negro cannot stand on his own legs, let him fall also. All I ask is, give him a chance to stand on his own legs! Let him alone!




--Frederick Douglass
