Beck compares Rep. Massa to a firefighter emerging from burning WTC
March 09, 2010 6:36 pm ET
From the March 9 edition of Fox News' Glenn Beck:


Media Matters: Conservatives' perpetual dishonesty machine
Media Matters: "Context is everything": Why you should (still) never trust Andrew Breitbart
Media Matters: The right-wing rage machine unloads a frenzy of race-baiting|

Glenn, this day was your Swan Song!
I am taken bets!
Massa is a Nut case and Beck could not deal with Massa insanity!
Glenn will be on Fox and Fiends to DUMP on Massa!
Glenn will be on Bill's show to DUMP on Massa!
or
Glenn finds a Pink slip in his dressing room!
Glenn will be on Fox and Fiends to DUMP on Massa!
Glenn will be on Bill's show to DUMP on Massa!
Beck is not a journalist. He's not an interviewer. He's certainly not a teacher. He's just a nut case propagandist.
Give me a break!
If I'm interpreting correctly the strange and strained metaphor that beck made, he was actually trying to minimize, even ridicule, campaign finance reform... correct?
That was the metaphor, or analogy really, calling for campaign finance reform is so useless and foolish, that it's like saying firefighters need better radios, when in fact there's a building about to fall down, and who cares about radios at a time like that, you need to run for your danged life NOW!
He was minimizing and ridiculing campaign finance reform.
It took me two passes of the video clip to confirm that, and still I'm not rock certain because it's so dumb, and the metaphor (or analogy) was so strange and strained.
And by the way, I take the term "campaign finance reform" to mean our efforts to keep lobbyists from BRIBING our Congresspersons, by way of campaign contributions that are in truth BRIBES.
And so to me the analogy isn't one where you minimize and ridicule campaign finance reform by comparing it to suggestions about better radios, it's where you cite the importance of it (because it's these BRIBES and this BRIBERY that's weakening and slowing and even stopping all our other reform efforts), you cite the importance of campaign finance reform, by comparing it instead to the building that's falling down...
We need danged campaign finance reform NOW!
You base your knowledge on crap you hear from this dishonest, uneducated Zoo Radio DJ? Seriously? That's really sad, man. I mean it. Educate yourself. Turn off this liar.
What would your presciption be for reviving the economy?
Why do you think the "worst of this economy is yet to come?"
Beck couldn't drag the nasty stuff out of him. Back to the CHALKBOARD, Glenn
