Tonight's Worst Person in the World on Countdown included FOXNews analyst Peter Johnson and Senator John McCain for his Weekend at Bernie's joke about Alan Greenspan. But the winner was xenophobe and CNN flop, Glenn Beck for asking his guest, who is with the Muslim Peace March, how we know the difference between a reasonable Muslim like her and a terrorist. Smooth, Glenn...real smooth.

quite frankly Beck could win every. single. night.

he called hillary socialist around 50 times a couple nights ago, a couple weeks ago he compared jesus to hitler, said that kucinich and the left were painting bullseyes on the heads of our troops, etc..

IMHO hes just as bad, if not worse, then O'Reilly. trust me, hes that bad.

Sometimes, those questions are ment to anger Muslims into a rage. However, this young lady handled it well, kept smiling and being quite polite on the air. In fact, she stuck to the topic, and even thanked Mr. Beck for "giving them the idea", which kind of cut both ways if you really listen to her. I think this young lady represented Islam in a hostile enviornment, and even "disarmed" Mr. Beck in a way in which he did not expect.

Perhaps, one of the Muslim teachings came through for this young lady as she shined Islam to the world on TV. Knowing the hostile listeners who have been so well "groomed" by the Beck punditry, she was nice, polite, and personable. However, Christians, rightwing pundits, and university presidents can't say that they treat people personable when they don't like them. Let's see...that is one for us (Ahmedinejahd) and another one for us (this young lady) showing the teachings of Islam toward other people.

Where is yours?

I haven't watched the video yet, or seen Beck, but here's a question:

How do I know the difference between an erudite, coherent thinker, and an asshat moron?

I just wait until they open their mouth. (now off to see the video for myself.)

Actually, I don't have a problem with what Glenn Beck said, but not in his context.

Mainstream, non-violent theists (whether Christian, Catholic, Muslim or even Wiccan) only serve to enable the religious extremists by establishing, maintaining and expanding the social dependency on that voluntary schizophrenia theists refer to as religious faith and all things faithful to religion.

Its a malignant status quo that needs to be challenged and changed.

Glenn Beck just wanted to be a big man and beat up on someone from the Middle East.

I did that long ago. I think it'd be great to try to get a nationwide boycott going. Even a statewide one in a particular state. And I'd be open to ideas on how to go about organizing such a monstrously difficult undertaking.

Here we go again, more hypocrite racist liberals trying to tarnish the good name of a blessed American HERO!!! --- If the honorable Glenn Beck is so RACIST.. Why is there a black woman bringing him a picnic basket at the end of that video??? Huh??!!?

Sure he did... It will most likely be labeled a *Heart Attack* and the log book of who visited him before that happened and all tapes of that day will just vanish...

I am sorry...

But my days of giving these freaks the benifit of the doubt... is long over...

What I am interested about that freak who is now a corpse is .... Did he ever visit the Bohemian Grove?

Prance around the White House late at night during the 80's??

Those things would be ...very interesting to me.

Remember his interview with Rep. Ellison? ''No offense & I've got nothing against Muslims but can you prove to me you're not a terrorist?'' or something like that. Klassy guy. I happened to catch a minute of him tonite (Friday). Just in time to hear him say KO is ''a waste of skin....oops, did I say that outloud? *giggle*'' He's an obnoxious, hate-filled, ignorant, nasty little chickensh*t. TA, Chris, he is as bad or worse than O'Lielly. This guy is just 100% junk. Why is he on any channel except Fox Noise?

What is Beck doing on CNN? Send him over to Fox. At least we can have all these assholes in one place.

Beck is such an idiot. I really, really do not understand why in the world he is still on the air. Who watches the fool?

Here-here,
Beck earned every once of uncredibility on this one. Beck has worked very dilligently to be the bigot he has come to be.

And for those of you that adore him. perhaps we can have "Worse Person in the world's Fan" Award. We'll look into it.............................

You say it best, this asshat along with Dobbs are the worst. I even dare say worse than Bill O reilly. I'm so glad his ratings are in the shitter, hopefully we'll soon get the satisfaction of his crap show being cancelled. They got rid of that right wing jerk Scarborough at night, that really helped but even he was moderate compared to Glen Beck. The further right you go the stupider and more irrelevant you become.

I laugh everytime his ad comes on and he says. "he's not a (fill in the blank) he's a thinker"

I was watching Keith's show, and I was shocked to see an ad for the Glenn Beck show on CNN. It was so weird. My cable company is notorious for their bad ad placement, cutting ads in during shows. Awful!!

jct's picture

this is the Glenn Beck that was among "journalists' that were invited to the Whitehouse for a private, off the record meeting with President.....

He is such a right wing blowhard....What he trys to spin is just plan ridicious....a couple of nights ago, as I was channel surfing, he said that the real problem with college tuition rates is because of student loans and all government funding... he said "Mr. Cleaver never had that conversation with Wally or the Beaver concerning not knowing how they were going to pay for college".....

He is only on the air to give the corporate, right wing, Whitehouse, talking points.......

He is so phony....when he first started out he tried to say that "I am not a conserative, nor a democrat, just an independent kind of guy...." what a totally lie.....

tHeGaMeOfLiFe's picture

beck hates all Muslims, Arabs, Iranians, Lebonese, African-Americans, Blacks and so on because he's a flaming racist. So sense he can't tell the difference he would settle to Kill them all. I would love to show him in person how to tell the difference. GTFOOH.

Didn't limpydic mock enough of our finest, in a poorly, ignorant, mocking, flippant manner? Then had fatass had the nerve to compare a honest, wounded, Purple Heart recipient with a "suicide bomber"? Then denied the comparsion? Is his shit suppose to be funny? (prior thread on C&L about this same shit) And what's with limpydic sucking on a stiff, fat cigar, as if he's the pimp of the year?

McCain needs to stop the bullshit too. He mimics greenspan in a lot of ways and he doesn't even know it. The poor stink roll.

repugs never pass the smell test
dems better start targeting all of them. This shit is serious!

The only person that I watch on CNN is Jack Cafferty and as little of Blitzer as possable.

Glen Beck couldn't be dumber or more patronizing. He said something after the Emmys to the effect that when Sally Field said that if women ran the world there would be no war that was like saying if men ran the home we'd have ugly drapes, or some such demeaning comparison.

Way to go, Glen. That's all women are good for....picking out drapes or cleaning the bathtub. I am sure his wife is just divinely happy if that's his attitude.

Kathy in St. louis's picture

I just looked up Glen on Wkikpedia. No mention of post-high school education, started out as a top 40 DJ. Here's his personal info.

"Glenn Beck was raised a Roman Catholic. He was born in Mt. Vernon, Washington, and attended high school in Bellingham. He graduated from Sehome High School in 1982. His mother committed suicide when he was 13. One of his brothers also committed suicide, and another had a fatal heart attack. [5]

Beck is a self-described reformed alcoholic and drug addict. In the aftermath of those three family tragedies, Beck said he used "Dr. Jack Daniels" to cope. He and his first wife divorced amid his struggle with substance abuse. Beck cites the help of Alcoholics Anonymous in his sobriety, and he eventually converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints which teaches against the consumption of alcohol.

Beck believes he has a personal relationship with God. "God stalked me like he had a giant baptismal rifle," Beck said. "I thwarted him. I led people astray as much I could but he kept putting Mormons in my way." [6]

Beck had two teenage daughters, Hannah and Mary, from his first marriage; Mary has cerebral palsy. He has two children, Raphe (adopted in 2004) and Cheyenne (born 2006), with his second wife, Tania."

I totally agree with you. IDIOT Glen Beck on CNN??? What a waste of "HOT AIR" time!! Send him to FOX! I NEVER watch FOX!! I try not to land on FOX even when surfing the channels, as I am afraid they will add my 'brief visit' to their ratings' count!! There was a time when I watched CNN for the NEWS. I do not do that so much any more!! Not so naive as I once was!! :-)

I like Cafferty too! He admits his past mistakes/shortcomings, re Bush/Cheney and the Iraq war. Blitzer is often "taken aback" by what Cafferty now says and appears visually uncomfortable!

I think that it is wiser to note what the reaction of those who are interviewed by Mr. Beck (especially those groups or persons he tried to vilify). I think that we have been "trained" by the punditry to automaticly attack them personally and it actually diverts from the topic they seem to be misleading us about. For example, the proof that "Islam teaches peace" (at least in dialouge, and in the face of adversity) is right here in this video clip, if you note the young lady's demeaner and personable answers. Please notice this may be confirmed by Mr. Beck's on air confrontation with Keith Ellison, and many other times with Muslims being interviewed by hostile pundits with questions purposely framed to make Islam inhumane to the unknowing.

The lesson here in my belief is that when we fall into attacking these people who have the purpose of spreading misinformation to appease the "savior" of those who cringe in fear of their own shadows, have a problem which in the end will destroy them. The problem is that they will soon run head on with the truth. When a person continuously denies the truth, upon them will come a rude rekoning. Mr Beck, and all agents of hate and warmongering like him will come to a confrontation that they can't imagine right now, in the hayday of their mission of propagnada.

I say, let them talk...Let them sing the praises of their demi god everyday. Let them vilify those things which lets everyman chooses to create his own destiny. Let them critisize diversity, let them slander of soldiers, let them ignore the poor and helpless. Let them hate those who speak for peace and liberty for all without force. Let them build thier media empires on the broken dreams and shattered hopes of those they promote war, oppression and occupation upon. Let them build strong walls against infiltration of truth, rational thought, and common sence. Let them build their own prison of fear so that they may live amonst each other in the world they tried to create for us. I say let them talk. Let us not deny them the liberty to speak. Let us deny them our ear and our attention.

I solved the Glenn Beck problem easily. I just don't turn CNN on anymore and won't until they get rid of Beck. I simply won't watch propaganda.

Sorry...I like Beck...he tells it like it is...he is mad a Bushie...he is mad at Clinton....so is the worst thing you can say about him is that he is religious? Sorry that is bigot speech! He asked the Congressman a question you all wanted to know...he did the job the media will not.
