Glen Beck: Obama better for country than Mccain would have been

The Right is already having him for lunch for saying this.
Since becoming a hit for the Conservative movement, Beck has had a target on his back from other conservative talk show hosts.....and now, as you can imagine, they are not holding their fire. I can't say I feel sorry for the guy.

Anyways, what do you think?

Who in bloody hell cares what he says?

He's not the president or even a high ranking politician. Either good or bad, it makes absolutely no difference what he says.

He's got quite the pulpit...so he damn sure makes a difference. I bet more people know who he is than who their own congressmen are. Not saying whether that is good or not, just that he does have influence.

I noticed that, that's the annoying part. People keep talking about him over and over and over.

Glen Beck said that Obama is better than McCain, wow...... big fvcking deal.....

What he meant to say was that Obama is better for his ratings, thus his salary goes up...

They are all pin heads supplied by the same crappy party(s).

But, yes I agree. Obama was a far better fit than McCain. I can imagine the disaster that would have occurred having a RINO like McCain in the drivers seat during this sh*t storm having the events stick, leaving the 10 and 12 elections wide open for substantial hard leftist sweeps.

At least the pseudo right leaders on the Hill have their balls in a constituency vice grip to hold the line against any left swinging lunacy. Now should a RINO attempt compromise, either a hard right or center left replacement will prevail in the next elections.

As for the center left, they have a heap of opportunity with Obama’s debacle. Hillary is in cold storage and much of the hated, entrenched, corrupt whales of the Hill appear threatened to have all this mess stick to them cracking the 10 and 12 election wide open for new blood.

Obama was as near a perfect dupe as could come for DC to nail gigantic heaps of it sins to so as to get back to business as usual.

I'd like to see the entire interview...I like Glenn Beck and believe he makes a **** ton of good points all the time.

I agree that the combo of Mccain/Palin would have been worse than Obama. We needed to get rid of the collective race guilt by electing Obama. Now that's done with, we can move on.

His comment also shows the issues w/ only have two choices, we need more choices and viable choices for election and keep $ out of the picture.

A very rich man these days. Keep making posts about him, he'll be laughing all the way to the bank.

Who's Glenn Beck?

Just a high paid talking head on one of the infotainment networks, helping dumb down our political discourse.

I had no idea until recently that he does some kind of comedy routine (not referring to his show) along the lines of Bill Maher. I miss the days when journalist were just that, and not busy pushing books and extreme viewpoints, one way or the other.

On the flip side.. it matters when Obama comments on certain issues or things that do not pertain or matter to him. Such as Kanye..Why?

Like all of these talk show people, he is first and foremost an entertainer. His job is to get people to listen to his schtick, make ratings go up and make money for the company and himself.

Take whatever he says in that context.

Of all Fox's news actors, I like Glenn the most. Although we're political opposites, he's my kind of crazy.

For all O'Reilly's bluster ect, he ain't in Becks league for nonsense. I always keep what Stephen Colbert said about GB in mind when noticing him, he built his career on 9/11...and anyone that ruthless to do that will say and do anything to stay in the limelight.
