After Iraq fell apart he said: “People only care that Saddam is gone.”

The correct thing for the media to do is to demolish such BS. Instead, they are spreading the BS!

beck is a tool and always will be.

and who cares?

Just another example of an out of touch Republican scurrying around in disbelief as the house of cards built on a foundation of quicksand collapeses.

Way to go Glenn, you really know how to tell it like it is.

If enough of you would stop watching him they would have to take him off the air.

Wake up.

now that gonzo quit, he cannot be impeached.
if he were impeached, bush couldnt spring him free.
with him having quit, he can be prosecuted by a court of law, but not impeached, bush can pull a libby and commute (and eventually pardon) him to keep him viable as a law firm partner and to keep him from singing to the fuzz.

his resignation is a legal cover to protect bush, cheney and himself.
they are pulling a libby on you americans.

fool you twice?

The trouble is, while ALKN’s inability to see certainly reaches an almost satirical level of profundity, it is reflective of a wider degree of general ignorance. This ignorance is cultivated in part by such shows as those being proffered (and viewed) as “news” or news analysis” by the clever as a fox channel. And by show’s like Glenn Beck’s. And, while such ignorance is often disparaged or foolishly termed irrelevant to the actual “news” shows which reflect it, this widespread misinformation based ignorance does have a measurable impact upon the direction of our democracy — for example, playing no small role in the election (and subsequent appointment) of rather extremist figures in both Congress and the White House this decade.

Beck is sometimes humorous, and very often entertaining. (Those who don’t at least see these possibilities need to lighten up. They are also partially why CNN has given him the show , and it is also partially why CNN — taking “infotainment” to the point where the “tainment” part not only trumps the info part, but even the accurate info part, airs the show.) But the level of manipulation and incomplete and misinformation is not acceptable in a major news station, let alone one that calls itself the most trusted name in news. (The fact that the widely popular and often referenced clever as a fox channel routinely engages in it is another, greatly underestimated problem.)

The energy spent disparaging Beck should be spent contacting CNN, and others, and letting them know this. If the level of manipulation and incomplete information as news analysis is not tolerated — and the case is effectively made (curses and nastiness being largely counterproductive, for example), it won’t be done for long.

1)If it makes the Republicans look bad, minimize it

2) If it can’t be minimized, call up the ghost of Chappaquiddick, Monica, or Barney Frank. The power of these three shibboleths is amazing, as they can be used over and over, negating any repub pecadillo without losing their power to cloud right-wing minds
