Glenn Beck is a very smart man, a calculating man.
He could not possibly have gone into a setting like that without knowing, with near certainty, how those New York animals would react.
It was like wearing Lady Gaga's meat dress into a lion cage.
Staying away from gatherings like that is a price of being a political celebrity, and he knew that, so I have to believe it was show prep.
The New York savages just performed as expected, on cue. I am really surprised he'd put his family into that situation.

If that is true, then Beck would have been smart enough to have some hired security nearby just in case things got too dangerous.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I'll take Beck's word over those goons. Beck, Maddow, and any other American should be able to come and go as they wish. This is America.

Hey DUmmies, Rosie O'Donnell could plop her fat ass at the Evans Amphitheater for movie night and not hear one comment. We don't do that on the right. We don't harass people. We don't throw pies at people. We don't show up at opponents conventions and shout them down like you goons. We have better things to do, not the mention, we don't try to silence you a**holes.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

$155 to get rid of a rampaging mob is a pretty good bargain.

2,250 .38s will do that.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I was thinking the same thing. Still, if it's me, I don't think I would have put any of my family in danger. Don't care if I got a division of Marines as security, that is just something I won't do.  :fuelfire:

14. Dear Glenn,

If the story is true then I offer up an apology as most of us liberals (you know, the ones you are always attacking on your shows) are actually very considerate people, perhaps you might wish to keep that in mind before you yourself spew forth your own hatred.

 :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Here is what some of those considerate and loving lefties said,
I know some of them have been posted already but, I'm making a point.  :-)

52. It takes courage nt


That last one gets me. The goon says it takes courage in response to the world would be a far better place if they decapitated Beck. Sounds to me like a call for violence.

25. He's a lying sack of shit
   
How about the lives you've ruined by spewing hatred, you miserable drunken moron.

God, I wish we would decide to fight back against him and his brain dead followers

I listen to him fairly regularly and I haven't heard anything come from his mouth that comes even close to the hatred I see at DU daily.

31. This wasn't karma
   
karma would have been Beck leaving in a rubber bag


Funny I just mentioned there is a lot of hate at DUmmyland, and this post appeared.

60. This Is Just Sad
   
I don't know - I'm no fan of Glenn Beck and in fact I disagree with what he stands for but what is this country turning into when people behave this way in front of the man's children? Beck and his wife are one thing but when you involve his small children, it turns into something totally different.

This is an incident his young children may remember their entire lives and can we really live with that?

If you can, then I feel sorry for you. I cannot. There are more of us than there of his type. We do not win the long battle by behaving like animals. We win in the long run by acting like decent people and convincing others that that way of thinking is outdated and not good for the people of this country.

Wouldn't we be throwing a fit if someone treated Rachel this way? Yes, we would. To me, this is akin to when we dance on someone's grave whom we don't agree with. It might make you feel better for the minute but in the long run, if you are a decent person you would feel bad.

We only lower ourselves to the republicans' level when we act like this. I am embarrassed for our party when there are people who who behave this way.

No you don't lower yourself to Republican levels when you do that shit, in general republicans don't pull shit like this.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

62. Beck was being a drama queen again-his bodyguards hassled people
   
-----

Just a quick FYI -saw your article on Mr. Beck and his numerous FALSE claims about the way that he was treated at Bryant Park last night. Myself and several of my friends were seated immediately behind Mr. Beck & co (have pictures) and I can tell you that while the crowd was certainly not *thrilled* that he had shown up, his family was left completely alone, and for the most part he was too. Conversely, it was his security detail (two body guards) that seemed to be unnecessarily prickly with the crowd, scolding myself and my friends for acrobatics and other harmless activities taking place well before the movie started, and contributing to a considerably less relaxed atmosphere than is typically experienced during BPMN (I've been going for about six years now).

It was my friend that spilled the glass of wine on Tanya -and I can assure you that it was a complete accident. A happy one, to be sure, but nonetheless a complete and utter accident. As soon as the wine spilled (and I question how Tanya became soaked from a half glass of wine) apologies were made and my friends pretty much scrambled to give Tanya & co napkins -no doubt aware that it would look terrible and that their actions could be perceived as purposeful. No words were exchanged after that, as I think that it became pretty clear to Beck & co that my friends and I were doing everything in our capacity to help clean the "mess".

I'm sure it's unnecessary to point out the hypocrisy in Glen's statements that we were being hateful. I can assure him that we don't need his sympathy. Incidentally, none of us have made a career of "spewing hate" on the radio, or any other media platform. We live our lives intolerant only of those who don't tolerate: We have chosen New York as our city for that very reason. We do things like go to Bryant Park Movie Night, and vote to legalize gay marriage. We don't taunt Glen, or his family. And we certainly don't waste our wine, even on Tanya.

Thanks, and please let me know if you have further questions.

This Lindsey Piscitell has basically been discredited and shown to be a liar apparently through some tweets she sent out saying that she was sitting near them and talking of "accidentally" spilling wine on his family. She got her 15 minutes of fame and it's not working out too well for her.

What I'm saying is that we need to stop acting like animals and quit playing games. Unemployment, poverty, and unpaid-for wars are devastating this country; not people like Glenn Beck. To be sure, he's someone I disagree with and I have chosen to not watch him or listen to him, but he's not the problem. Unemployment, poverty, and unpaid-for wars are.
   

Somehow I think that person won't last long at the DUmp.
I believe you have to think Beck is the Anti-Christ if you want to post there.
