Glenn Beck is cracking up on national TV. He now iscomparing President Obama to Egypt's dictator, Mubarek, who has reigned for 30 years over a repressive military backed government. Beck's outrageous accusations are a reach even for an advowed "Rodeo Clown". His unrestrained tirades continuously add fuel and hatred for the President of the United States and incite a climate of Hate in America.

It is time for responsible Republicans to call for his censureship, if not, removal from Hate TV! Do your part and write to folks at Fox asking them to "can" this fountain of hate.

Enough is enough! It is time responsible Conservatives, Republicans and the Tea Publicans need to come out of the Shadow's and stand up for America by asking for the silencing of Glenn Beck and Hate TV.

What will it take? Another crazed killer, stoked up by Hate Radio, Hate TV, and Hate Republican Speech to kill more innocent American become the radical right come to their gun toting senses and realize that they have a responsibility in a civilized country to stand up to incendiary language even if it comes from their chief spokespersons.

STAND UP FOR AMERICA AND TELL "HATE TALKERS"TO SIT TF DOWN!

Maybe Beck realizes the Republican field is pretty pathetic in terms of presidential material and so he is settling in for a second Obama term. Sure, four more years is not like the thirty that Mubarek has been in power, but can you imagine what that seems like to your typical Obama hater. I can. When Bush left office, it seems like he had been there forever.

But back to the comparison...Glenn...Glenn, Glenn, Glenn....[shakes head]...what are we going to do with you? You keep comparing Obama to dictators yet one tantrum in Congress can grind the country to a halt. Does that really sound like the President has dictator like powers? C'mon... I know there's a few brain cells that grasp the concept. But they are overruled by those that read your bank balance, aren't they?

Every day beckhind seems to come out with more and more outragious crap in his futile attempt to regain listeners/viewers. Only the totally stupid/foolish/demented would consider his delusional rantings as valid in any way. The only ones who will be watching is that group and the comedians looking for material. beckhind seems a characture of reTHUGliCONs!

Louie Lou: Why on earth wouldn't reasonable Right wingers ask Beck to tone down his insane rantings, surely they understand that he is making them all look stupid?

The "it's UnAmerican" comment from Conservative Conspirator reveals how grossly ignorant many of right are. The Constitution does not give one the right to say anything that a person want to at any time. How simple minded is their thinking?

There are laws restricting people from inciting riots and violence. Laws prohibiting one from threatening the life of others and laws prohibiting slander.

Do these folks read the Constitution and the Bible but don't understand either?

Pigion....they like to "CLAIM" to support the Constitution and the bible but when push comes to shove, they continue to fail to understand either in their zeal to show "liberals" as evil and bad. Fortunately, from what I see most of the time, both are on the side of the liberals than the rightwingNUTs.

Pigeon Report,

I am so glad you brought up laws prohibiting threatening the lives of others.

A leftist buddy of yours:

A self-described Massachusetts "political activist" was arrested Monday night and charged with sending a threatening e-mail to Florida Rep. William Snyder, R-Stuart, an hour after the Arizona shooting that killed six and critically injured U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

The unsigned e-mail, sent to Snyder's state House of Representatives address on Jan. 8, told the legislator to "stop that ridiculous law if you value your and your familie's lives."

Snyder has proposed a bill cracking down on illegal immigration for Florida in a manner similar to what Arizona has done.

Snyder said Tuesday he reported the e-mail to the Martin County Sheriff's Office and state Capitol security officials in Tallahassee.

According to TCPalm.com and other published reports, the Martin County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday that Manuel E. Pintado, 47, of Northampton, Mass., used a public access wireless connection at a Starbucks a few blocks from his home to send the e-mail.

TCPalm reported that Pintado was being held in a Massachusetts jail pending his transfer to face charges in Martin County. He is under a $450,000 bail on charges of corruption by threat and sending a written threat to kill or do bodily harm. The charges are second- and third-degree felonies.

DEVILSADVOCATES:

I, perhaps, more than others, enjoy poking fun at my opponents, but, BECK PREACHES HATE and does it for a boat load of money; $32 million per year!

The bible thumping, gun toting, Conservative Right Wing of the Republican Party are becoming a dangerous HATE GROUP, AS EVIDENCE BY THEIR LACK OF REMORSE OVER THE SHOOTING OF 18 PEOPLE, which included the killing of 6 innocent Americans.

Not one Right wing commentators or bloggers has called for restraint from Beck or Rush. Is it because they actually speak what Right Wingers believe?

Conservative Conspirator: Posts a comments but no way to reply to him. Why in the world would you think that a nut-job that makes a threat to a politician is a friend of mine or for that matter someone from "the left".

There is clearly no evidence for either of these assured accusations and again demonstrates how folks that define themselves as Conservatives Christians are neither conservative (to conserve) or Christian.

Their discriminatory thinking seems endemic to the ideology of that philosophy.

If one strips away the Confederate flag, prejudice against others, inbred hate - what are they left with? - A constitution that they don't understand and a Bible that they use only to justify their hatred!

DBE928 Among many accusations that he makes Beck claims that President Obama is as much of a dictator as Egypt's President Mubarak. If you get a change read the article. It is an eye opener and/or watch the attached video. Beck's a dangerous lunatic not too far removed from Jared Laughner.

His insane rants, racial hatred, anti Jewish remarks and hatred for the government is disturbing, debilitating and very UN-Patriotic.

The Right needs to Stand Up For America For Once In Their Life and Censure one of their own, if they are to be taken for anything other than a Radical Far Out Right Hate Group.

Amen!

Man I am so tired of those on the far right screaming hate, and lies, while presenting them as truth. Then running and hiding behind the first amendment of free speech to defend the violent rhetoric. This man has no value to add to any conversation. He is a divider filled with hate and lies. Why no one on the right will call out this man and others like him, I can not understand.

Beck walks the fine line of using threatening comments and manages to stay on the "legal" side so as not to suffer consequences for his behavior. Some of his listeners, however, are who we should truly be watching out for. He only says the things he says, not because he believes them, but because he knows his listeners will. That gives him ratings and ratings fuel advertising dollars. Instead of GOP pols taking issue with what he says, I wish the advertisers would take issue with what he says and pull their $$ from his show.

Recent articles on the newsvine and other places quote Media Matters in stating that BECK has lost 50% of his audience. Thanks in part to the STOP BECK folks who are actively getting his advertisers to pull their ads from his HATE SPEECH show.

Here's hoping we can drive him back to that sewer in Utah from whence he sprang!

This is what the right-wing media is doing. Check them all out. From Rush Limbaugh to Michele Markin. From Beck to Ann Coulter. This is the new attack from the evil people. But this isn't new. From the beginning of his announcement to run for Pres of America, Pres Obama has been attacked as a dictator. From brown shirts to black helicopters, these are the tools that the right-wing says that Pres Obama will use to round up Americans to put them in Federal jails and camps.

The right-wing media has tried to make Pres Obama a MONSTER who hates America and Americans.

The right-wing media are so freaking evil. They could care less if Americans did have another Civil War. They would all be hiding because they are freaking cowards.

Glenn Beck is the real-life version of Howard Beale, the former network news anchor played so brilliantly by the late actor Peter Finch in Paddy Chayefsky's 1976 movie, "Network" -- who transformed himself into "The Mad Prophet of the Airwaves" by turning into a ranting and raving lunatic.

Now, with his Fox News ratings in decline (and his radio show plunging headlong into oblivion, as one station after another dumps him), one wonders if Fox News chief Roger Ailes will act like the fictional network boss in the film and insist that Beck stay on the air no matter what. It's hardly a secret that other Fox News stars -- most notably Bill O'Reilly -- don't like Beck and would love to see him get the ax.
