Why is the media – liberal or otherwise – still giving this guy space? If he is ignored (I think Fox even ignores him), then he will slowly wither away.

What happened to Beck going blind? Didn’t he say that he was? He is evil in it’s finest. Ppl like him needs to be ignored and put in a box some place where there is no air nor light. In order words, go to hell.

i.e. The father of lies, the Deceiver. The bible says that when Satan lies, he is speaking out of his nature. My pastor likes to say “How do you that Satan is lying? Cuz his mouth is open!”
Keep lying Glenn Beck!

She probably said, “Love how they fold the flag.” Beck tries to make mountains out of nothing all the time. Face it, he is nothing. To watch people fold the flag is very touching. They took particular care with the flag in this case. At my brother’s recent burial, the military personnel held the flag very taunt and folded it crisply; you could almost hear it snap. It’s a very moving ceremony.

Out of the possible words, “fold the flag”, Beck constructed a whole anti- American tirade, which he then put in the mouths of both Obamas… Free- associating, confabulating, and projecting in one operation, all from a single TAT screen! You can’t beat that outside a nuthouse!

Yeah I love how speculation = FACT with these guys. No audio, no evidence but sure let’s go with just cold accusing someone of basically treason! Yay! That’s real democracy!
You know….come to think of it….I was watching a Glenn Beck episode with the sound turned off one time and I could swear his lips said “I think what America needs is Communism. Socialism really is great, we should try it more.” I mean – I SAW IT and even though I didn’t HEAR it and no one else did either – it STILL MUST BE TRUE!!!!
Glenn Beck is a communist. And I can find the lip reader to prove it.

This is crazy! I was watching the ceremony and when Michele turned to Obama I thought she said exactly what I was thinkig in that moment, “they folded that real fast.” I have been to a few military funerals and usually it takes them a little more tie to fold the flag. Considering the size of the flag they were folding, I was amazed at how quickly they were doing it – not with the reverant precision that you see military do it.

Too bad that he is back. Some say that he should be ignored, I disagree. He is so vile, hateful and sick but he does have quite a following. The worst part is that he used to talk about God and love on Fox at the same time spewing hate.

I reassure you, though, that I don’t even own a grapefruit knife. The preferable way to eat tree-ripened citrus is to cut oranges into quarters and grapefruits into eighths with a common straight blade and then eat them over the sink. I don’t want to sully this pure and joyous image with that of (censored).

I’m deaf, but don’t use sign language at all, so I’m extremely offended he would trot out a token handicapped employee to bolster his brand of BS by putting words in his staffer’s mouth. He might as well point to a black staffer as proof that he’s not racist. Screw Glenn Beck for not having any integrity for any aspect of his life. Then again, he mocked a woman for her miscarriage while on the air, so I shouldn’t really be surprised by anything this cokehead has done since he was a morning zoo jock.
Hey, Glenn. Read my lips: Eff U.

Mike, did you by chance see the transaction in question between the President and the First Lady? I did, couldn’t make it out, was sure it was harmless and surer that the whackwingers would make something out of it, on the principle that nothing is too filthy to ascribe to the Black People in the White House.

No- I hadn’t come across it until I read this article, but since I don’t have a high-speed connection I’ll have to go to the library to check this out.
Seriously, this assistant of his should know better- even with hearing aids, looking directly at the person speaking to me, I still don’t get every single word. I have Type 3 hearing loss, nerve deafness. It’s inoperable, currently, and means that not only do I not hear everything, I can’t always make out what the actual word is. Basically, it’s a matter of context and homophones, and can result in some hilarious wordplay if there are similar words.
I don’t know if the employee was born deaf, or lost it as he got older, or if there was an injury/illness; nor do I know the extent of his loss. However, if he lets his boss steamroll him like that, then I could see a potential issue with ADA discrimination. He’s being singled out for his handicap, and then he’s being outright dismissed because someone thinks they know better than he does about coping with that disability. It’s like telling a guy in a wheelchair he doesn’t have the right technique for going up a ramp.
Glenn Beck is only proving that he not only doesn’t understand religion or history, he’s clueless about a whole bunch of things.

Maybe she did say “Look how they fold that flag”. Has Mr. Beck ever seen it? It’s actually very impressive. If she had done a back flip or pumped her fist that would have been picked apart too. The Obamas can’t win with these people. Her body language was negative? Your damn right! She was at a memorial service! Should she have worn her visor and brought her picnic basket? Not to worry people. No one pays attention to these idiots anyway.

If you want to be taken seriously,before you write,calm down, get a grip, and try to make comments that are good reasons why you disagree width Beck. It’s amazing to me, to this day, that I knew what Jerimiah Wright was all about long before the media. All I did was Google The Trinity Uunited Chuch of Christ. I don ‘t think Beck spoke aout Oama’a church at all. Trinity has toned down w their rhetoric many times since the primary,but you still get some of their messase. James cone wrote the book that inspired many os Wright’ s message “Black liberation Theology.” It’s all about hate.

The church’s early history coincided with the American civil rights movement, subsequent death of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the turmoil that entered the movement after his death. During that tumultuous period, an influx of radical black Muslim groups had begun to headquarter in Chicago, and Trinity sought to recontextualize Christianity through black liberation theology in order to counter the influence of radical black Muslim leaders, who taught that it was impossible to be both Black and Christian. Trinity is best known today for its social programs on behalf of the disadvantaged, both nationally and internationally, although in its earliest days such outreach did not even figure in its mission.
All the crap you quote was years and years ago.

I watch Beck in passing, a little at a time…Curious of what he would say next? And wondered who listens to him was really? It’s clear that he is jealous of the “black man” who became President…as if it somehow shames him personally…. because he had better opportunities and should have done better…He tries to copy the President, he tried to get multitudes to come see him…but only a few came! He even made a symbol, that too fizzled. He does desperate things, that no other NEWS & VIEWS person would do…even the lip reader couldn’t lie good enough for him, so he puts words into Ms. Obama’s mouth, and literally made up a story right before our ears and expects us to believe it!!! He takes us for stupid! He is getting very scary…desperate…like he is gasping for air! But this was the bottom! You could hear him working himself into frenzy!!…NOW I feel sorry for him…We as a country need to pay attention, I am sure that FOX have people in positions to ensure that the people they hire are “sane”…they allow their staff to walk on the edge, to bluff, but not cross it! They were worried that Beck was about to cross that line… any day now…so they played it safe…and fired him! This episode is another sign, that they did the right thing! Now, I wonder what about Beck’s wife, why isn’t she whispering in his ear and following him around, and representing him? I wonder what makes a man so angry…BUT maybe she did whisper in his ear…maybe she said “Ohhh-bahhh-maaaah” Because this guy is TOO jealous…and the Bible does say a man under THOSE circumstances cannot be consoled! It says you can’t even pay him off!! And his problem is more than racism! Racism is what he wants you to think…but no, I don’t think so. TBN better be careful and continue to stay out of the NEWS, FOX isn’t stupid.

It is my opinion that is what she said. The eyes say it all. Even if she can come up with a good explanation, you are to remain silent during a flag ceremony. That in its self is disrespectful.

In other news, Glenn Beck was arrested today for the accusation that his eyes said “Take down the government!”. All citizens are now to be rounded up and tested for being witches- if you sink, you’re innocent. And anonymous people on the internet will crucify you if they don’t like your eyes. Guilty until proven innocent, that’s the American way.

So lets summarize. You assume she is an American hater because she is not excited over the flag? Do you apply that test to others who may giggle during the flag folding, or others who may make comments to their neighbors during the flag folding?
I think you are the hater, not the Obama’s

I know its history. And I know people do not get excited over it when its being folded. It has a meaning, but it is certainly not like has been described by sharon.
There was nothing that MO did that indicates she hates America. The hate belonged to sharon
Hilarious, you talk about the flag in one post and show what a uneducated person you are in another.
