Glenn Beck hosted one of his hourlong sessions before a studio audience talking about the role of heroes in American life. The consensus, both by Beck and his panelists, was that Americans no longer look up to their historic heroes the way they should. Instead, as Beck suggested, we have "Mao Tse Tung hanging in our White House."

Say again? Oh yeah -- the Obama administration is riddled with radical Marxist revolutionaries. Right. Tell that to progressives right now. Moron.

Anyway, Beck apparently draws the line when it comes to the possibility, heaven forfend, Obama might be regarded as a hero:

Beck: I'm a big visual guy. And if you look at the way Barack Obama was imaged -- he was, as a savior. He was, as a -- you look at it now, anybody notice -- you watch the newspaper, and you watch the photos of him coming out of the White House, almost always, they'll have a shot of him with the seal of the President -- you notice that? And it almost looks like a halo. They'll take a shot from the side, and he's standing there, and it looks like a Russian icon!

He's talking about the photos of the president that have been shot for some time now whenever there's a press appearance at the White House. And it didn't start with Obama:

Indeed, if we're suddenly all worried about presidents being made out to be heroes, you have to wonder where Beck was when W. strutted out to his "Mission Accomplished" photo-op:

Now that's what I call an action hero.

Fortunately, Obama has spared us any codpiece appearances.

Are you seriously saying that the current White House is NOT filled with Marxists? How in heck do you explain the ramrodding of socialist health care? Billary Clinton isn't a Marxist? Oh please. Our President received and endorsement from Louis Farrakhan and the New Black Panther Party! LOL... yes, this White House is chock full of Marxists.

You spent the time to register just to post this idiocy? I just don't understand why idiots like this go out of their way to take any doubt away from how stupid they are.

Hey wait, do you think that Beck figured out how to register here on C+L?

Where he comes from, that stuff is pure genius.

NOW I know how you came up with your porn handle...I hate to disappoint you, but that's not Bush's cock. You should be calling yourself "FrankenSock'

I'd make a very impressive showing too...

Well looky here. It's a rightwing parrot, cheering for the people who are all to happy to screw him.

He is so dense, he doesn't even realize Rahmabama is a repuke-lite, and the biggest socialists on the palnet are the super-rich republicans and corporations who dupe him into suicidal beavior patterns by using terms that would actually benefit him.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 1,000,000 times, you must be a brain-dead wingnut supporter.


If I were a psychopath, I would join the republican party, and get in on the gravy train taking the Teabircher morons to the cleaners.

Yeah but Obama wears his member as a belt.

The thing about Bec is he is working on the lowest common denominator of the Republican Party. The lowest of the low of America. It is best o keep them in their place where we know what they are up to.

Like he was some kind of a leader, he was a ruler, acting like he was a commander guy.

He sure likes to point the finger at everyone else and say they're promoting dems with "Russian Icons" but did anyone else see that poster Beck had made for the teabag rally with the upraised clenched fists IN RED!!! That sucker was straight out of the russian propoganda factory.

Beck needs lithium and Aires needs a "time out" in the local jail.

I never thought Obama was a savior or anything remotely like one.
I did see him as an opportunity. That's all.
I saw McCain as Boosh3.
We'll see.

I figured I'd disagree with things Obama does about half of the time. I disagreed with some of the things he ran on but McCain was never an option.

I would have voted for almost anybody before McGramps and Palin.

I have to say again, as I do every time this comes up, Bush did not land that damn plane on that ship. You would be surprised how many people think that he did. The S-3C Viking has one set of controls on the left side. There is no way in hell he piloted that plane down onto the deck of that ship himself. It takes years of training to master that skill. He was a passenger in the right seat. Then they brought him around to make it look like he had been the pilot. What crap. Talk about stage managed horseshit. And then to blame the "Mission Accomplished" banner on the crew was just too much.

Bush was just a passenger.

Carrier landing is dangerous and really hard work. Nothing Commander Bunnypants would do.

it was a fundie Christian site, I think Reconstructionist, that was calling for the dissolution of the Republic and making Dubya our first Christian emperor. No kidding. So I don't know where Beck gets off saying what he does, but then, what person understands Beck period?

He suffered. Lord, how he suffered. And he was not a passenger. It was all real. He could have walked on water, but instead chose to ascend from the heavens. I saw it on TV.

I read this post and then imagined Herr Beck thoughtfully scouring Bag News Notes with genuine intellectual curiosity looking for story ideas and inspiration.
I am still chuckling.

Was the President Bush speaking with an unusually high pitch to his voice that day?

As for Marxist accusations, I would have voted for Barack if he were a commie because then we might actually get some social action instead of the window dressing conservatives refer to as revolutionary.

When he was playing around with the controls, its to bad Georgie didn't push the eject button and fire his ass across the bow and into the ocean.

But Obama did just say "Mission Accomplished" on Health Care.
