Beck Attacks Obama's Religious Faith, Calls Jim Wallis A Marxist, And Labels Huckabee A Progressive

[Labels Huckabee A Progressive]

I suspect Beck will be attacking ALL of the Fox Faves soon enough....

I hear Beck talking about his soon-to-be-former-coworkers like this, and I start to have flashbacks to basic training, when the NCOIC in the tower tells you to watch your lane as the targets pop up.

*click, click* BANG!, *click, click* BANG!, *click, click* BANG!, *click, click* BANG!, *click, click* BANG!

This is the sound of Glenn Beck's program ending. He's just taking aim at anything and anyone, firing blindly into a darkened room, as Stu and Pat take cover and pray they don't become Harry Whittingtons.

Yes, what a way to get young people to follow you Glenn

People actually listen to this mess? Jim Wallis has asked to debate Glenn Beck. I guess Beck is still running from him. Research it for yourselves Beckbots.

So many, many smears...and so little, little time.

This is from a member of a non-Christian cult.

A small sample of Glenn Beck's speech: Cass Sustien, Van Jones, Obama, Unions, Piven, Soros, Spooky, Fear, Crying....Doesn't his fans ever get sick of it?

Wallis is a true Christian, and Beck is close to the Marcia Gay Harden character in the Movie The Mist.

Jim Wallis is one of the most Christian (follower of Christ) people I've ever seen. Beck is a jackass.

I've come up with a special name to describe a day like this when Beck wanders down these kinds of wild, ridiculous thoughts.

I call it, "Tuesday."

Mike Huckabee is obviously a Communist, plotting the overthrow of the United States of America...isn't it obvious?

Really, true Christians should be appalled by this. I'm not talking about finger-wagging Bible thumpers. I'm referring to people who follow the teachings of Christ and try to live their daily lives helping one another. Glenn & his ilk can read the Bible backwards & forwards 24/7 but if they don't LIVE it, especially the New Testament they shouldn't talk or chastise anyone.

Rev Wallis was on Rick Steve's radio program this weekend and said something to the effect that he's glad people like Glenn Beck fear him.

Ah Hell, if Huck is a Progressive, I must be a dyed-in-the-wool Southern Baptist Conservative! The neat thing is, we will get to see just how mean, petty, nasty, and spiteful Glennie can be as his show fades from the tube. If he has to go down, he seems bent to take as many with him as possible.

I listened to Beck's radio show for a few minutes this morning (bored with Stephanie "I mean I mean I mean you know I mean really I um you know you know I just you know I mean" Miller's breathless antics) and heard a seriously creepy call in from a woman who sounded as if her voice was shaking with nervousness and awe at speaking to Her Hero. She talked about how she followed Beck "religiously" from city to city where he held rallies, taking her nine year old daughter and mom with her all the time (no mention of the kid's dad- I'm guessing he bailed some time ago) and how, in Chicago, she tried hard to stand up when Beck asked people in the audience who "had courage" to do so- but she "felt like a weight was holding me down" and couldn't, and now she felt so ashamed that she had not stood up. Beck "forgave" her and told her that her call made the Chicago rally worth it, and I thought the woman was going to have an orgasm over the radio. It was truly disgusting and more than a little horrifying.

Went to an MLB game a few months ago. We were sitting at left field, and there was a drunk fat guy holding a beer standing at the rail and harassing the opposing team's left fielder incessantly. "Hey 42, you're a bum! You're mother's a bum! Hey 42! [pause for dramatic effect] Your brothers and sisters are bums! Your dog is a bum! etc." And then he'd take five and sip his beer and start all over: "Hey 42, you're a bum!..."

Don't know why listing to Beck's rant reminded me of that guy.

What a mean, spiteful little man Glennie is. So Huckabee is a progressive now eh? What did he do to pi$$ you off Glennie? Wasn't he licking your boots enough? To me, Huckabee is no progessive considering all the right-wing policies he endorses.
And Jim Wallis is a Marxist? You mocking said that you don't know any Marxists who love Jesus. Well Glennie, Wallis is more of a Christian than you will ever be. And why haven't you debated him yet? He keeps asking for one. Oh that's right, you're a coward who likes to snipe at people from the safety of your studio.

Just as messed up as anything else that falls out of Glenda's trap.

When Huckabee confront Beck at Fox News, you will hear about it.

he's not going to judge the man's soul yet at the same time call the man a marxist,,anyone who calls beck out for the liar he is he attacks. Jim Wallis is more christian any day of the week than beck is.

First - Media Matters is a progressive site. What is the difference between a democratic socialist and a progressive (a post-Roosevelt/Wilson progressive, that is)?

Jim Wallis appeared on Democracy Now! lately and I couldn't see why Amy Goodman would ever think about inviting an evangelical Christer on her program. Evangelicals were largely behind the Bushista support base, and Christian fundamentalism (at least in America). He was a good enough guest, but he included a bit of irrationality in his appearance (namely, about the "faith" community). He's by no means a Marxist. Historically, liberation theoology/Christian Marxism has largely come from the Catholics, such as in Central America.

There's a marked difference between the ideology of the more fascist "Progressives", characterized by the presidents preceding FDR (they espoused support for the state racism/white supremacy that existed at the time) and the Americans who are called "Progressives" today. Beck mixes them up. But Huckabee is more in line with the pre-FDR "Progressives", than those called progressives today.

I never trusted Huckabee to do what we needed for our country. I was as against him as I was McCain and for the same reason. They do not have a strong resolve. I agree they are fine men just not presidential material. It is just like republicans to agree with the democrats that we need to get along and work together. But when democrats were in power they didn't get along and work together. No it is war on because we are fighting for our constitution, for what made us great!! They (Huckabee and McCain) will allow the progressives to continue with their control taking schemes and look at them as harmless, not recognizing that our rights are slowly but surely being taken away. I say to all Americans wake up!!! Glen Beck has opened the eyes of this country to so much of the lefts agenda and yet you still spit in his face. For those who have done their due diligence our eyes are open and we are the better for it.

Beck uses progressive as a catch all label for all things evil. It has absolutely no meaning coming from his mouth.

Wallis has been on Beck's radar since he broke ranks and pointed out how shamelessly the GOP has co-opted Christians and how little their platform has to do with Christ's teachings.
