Glenn Beck’s Rants Against ‘Juan McCain’ Would Not Be Welcome At RedState.com»

Discussing last night’s GOP debate on his radio show today, Glenn Beck and fill-in host Pat Gray mocked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) by derisively calling him “Juan McCain.” Beck, who considers McCain’s sponsorship of a comprehensive immigration bill and the Mexican background of his national director of Hispanic outreach to be “an audacious slap in the face to the American people,” proudly advertised the segment in his daily e-mail to listeners today:

During the segment, Beck also commented on a new campaign by the National Council of La Raza that targets him and Lou Dobbs for their rhetoric, which La Raza believes “demonizes immigrants and Hispanic Americans.” Beck suggested that La Raza’s campaign to get him off the air “before the election” may be “connected” to McCain. Listen to the segment:

La Raza isn’t the only group that doesn’t appreciate Beck’s brand of Latino-phobic humor. On the conservative community blog RedState.com today, Leon H. Wolf posted a message to “commenters,” that it is “not fine, okay, or within the bounds of the rules” to “use Latino names as an insult.” Wolf says users will be “banned for doing it” at Red State:

What is not fine, okay, or within the bounds of the rules, is to use Latino names as an insult. We are speaking, specifically, of “Jorge Arbusto” and “Juan McCain,” although it’s certainly possible that others are floating out there or may yet be invented. Allow me to clue anyone who thinks these names are funny or clever in to something: racism isn’t clever or funny. If you think you’ve really zinged someone by calling them by a Latino name, that’s a pretty reliable (nearly infallible, in fact) indicator that you don’t like Latino people.

Since he can’t help showing his “disdain for Latino people,” CNN host Glenn Beck would apparently be banned from posting on one of the top conservative blogs.

UPDATE: On Beck’s CNN Headline News show last night, Minuteman founder Jim Gilchrist compared La Raza to the KKK while smearing the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

    Who’s this “Glenn Beck”???


  2. scytherius Says:

    The insanity of the right wing just explodes when they start losing control. They are just now beginning to relize that they are the dinosaurs and that the American people are one big-ass comet heading their way.


  3. robertoroberto Says:

    Glenn Beck is a psychopath. It’s quite terrifying that CNN allow him to have his own show. And the republican race baiting of ‘Islamofacism’ made them sound like they were trying to become fuhrer rather than President.


  4. GL2814 Says:

    Glenn Beck is an a**hole.

    John McCain is an a**hole.

    RedState.com is an a**hole website.

    Par for the course for republicans these days. Full of a**holes.


  5. Bobwurst Says:

    Glenn Beck just says what everyone (he knows) thinks. He is the face and voice of the republican party.


  6. tnrc75 Says:

    I love watching the right wingers eat themselves….this is much better entertainment than the popcorniest Hollywood summer movie. Get your deckchairs out kids coz if there’s one thing conservatives like less than Hilary…..it’s conservatives who disagree with them.

    Glenn Beck’s audience is the very worst people in the USA. Narrow mined bigots who think they have more rights than the rest of the world. The world would be a better place without them.

    Comment by jb — January 31, 2008 @ 9:15 pm

    Based on the ratings for his cable show, it’s a very small group of people.

    Thankfully.


  9. Mark @ News Corpse Says:

    Why does this guy even have a show?

    His TV show is a pathetic disaster that should be canceled before it brings down the rest of the network.

    Glenn Beck’s Ratings: Headline Snooze

    “So what is CNN waiting for? Are they masochistic gluttons for punishment who get pleasure from losing? Are they married to the repulsive and repudiated ideology spewed by Beck? Are they frightened, ineffectual, corporate bootlickers who couldn’t make a proper programming decision without a sackful of surveys and permission from their supervisor? It is just this simple: There is no business case for keeping Beck on the air.”


  10. Snowball Says:

    I suspect that the right wingnut punditocracy is trying to win McDrain the Hispanic and Independent vote by trashing him now. Later, after he wins the primary, they’ll be touting what a moderate he is. It’s the only way a Reptilescum can win the general election by painting their candidate as a non-Republican.


  11. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    You might have a point there, Snowball.

    It’s not about the ratings, it’s about right wing corporate propaganda. Beck is cheaper than buying campaign ads.


  13. Roket Says:

    RedState is going to ban racist dialog on their website? Bwahahahahahahaha. Good luck with that. Bwahahahaha.


  14. Immigration2008DotCom Says:

    What Matt from ThinkProgress forgot to mention is that the issue isn’t that McCain’s staff member has a “Mexican background”.

    The issue is that McCain’s staff member is a former cabinet-level official with the Mexican government.

    Why didn’t Matt include that vital piece of information? Can you trust what Matt writes here in the future?


  15. Dr. Matt Says:

    Who’s this “Glenn Beck”???

    Comment by The Republic of Stupidity — January 31, 2008 @ 9:02 pm

    He’s the reich-wing equivalent to the special needs adult who gets a job at pizza hut.


  16. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    Can you trust what Matt writes here in the future?

    Comment by Immigration2008DotCom — January 31, 2008 @ 9:39 pm

    Uh, quite frankly, your comment doesn’t make any sense.

    Why would the prior job of the staff member matter, in light of Beck’s racist comments?

    Think, man… the thread is about Beck’s behavior, not the staff member’s employment history.


  17. Xisithrus Says:

    Does this mean I cant refer to Beck as Gwynn Blech?


  18. ScrewBush Says:

    Don’t blame Beck, he’s a racist idiot, doing what racist idiots do.
    Dom’t blame CNN, okay maybe a little, but they’re just putting a dumb racist out there for profit.

    BLAME THE ADVERTIZERS! They are handing CNN a profit for giving this racist idiot air time.


  19. joe cantwell Says:

    yes, you can.


  20. Xisithrus Says:

    Its not like he married the guy.



  21. tom Says:

    Beck is getting desperate so he’s taken a page out of Ann Coulter’s playbook. Since everyone is ignoring him (witness his low ratings), he poops out another outrageous comment and waits for everyone to react to his perfectly-formed turd.

    This seems to be happening in every corner of rant-radioland. Both Limpballs and Little Seanie Insanity are jumping the shark these days, too. They see their influence in polarizing the country is slipping away and they are twisting slowly in the wind.

    It isn’t a pretty sight but it sure is enjoyable to watch. They are bleeding slowly so it will take a few more months for them to expire. Then we will all be able to go about the business of working together to overcome the damage that GDumbya, Darth Cheney and they have inflicted on this once-great nation.


  22. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    That particular fact is also irrelevant on this thread, Xisithrus.

    This is about Beck’s racist name-calling, not the employment history of McCain’s staffer.

    OMG, it’s a strawman!


  23. bluestatedon Says:

    C’mon, everybody, have some sympathy for Beck. Hemorrhoids are a very painful condition, they’ve obviously grown to the size of grapefruit on Glenn. I wouldn’t be able to think straight in that condition, either.



  24. Jim Says:

    #18: Don’t blame Beck, he’s a racist idiot, doing what racist idiots do. Dom’t blame CNN, okay maybe a little, but they’re just putting a dumb racist out there for profit. BLAME THE ADVERTIZERS! They are handing CNN a profit for giving this racist idiot air time.

    Can I blame all three? They all seem to be working together and enabling one another.

    While I’m at it, can I blame McCain for not having a coherent position on a single issue, other than the war in Iraq? And can I respectfully disagree with McCain’s position that leaving U.S. troops in Iraq for “a hundred years” is wise foreign policy?


  25. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    Just imagine how badly he must aggravate them every time he sticks his head up or pulls it out of his poor, bleeding Cheney, bluestatedon.

    USA Patriot: so taking cheapshots at a respected US senator is alright? Pointlessly making racial insinuations about a US senator is OK?


  34. tnrc75 Says:

    No, but you are saying that what these men are doing is alright by implicitly not criticizing it.


  35. katy Says:

    “McCain at one point said he wouldn’t vote for ‘McCain/Kennedy’,
    an immigration bill that he created.”

    well, i would welcome a thread on that bit of info…
    wtf??? did he even explain?


  36. Joefriday Says:

    But Beck didn’t say anything racist. He didn’t even refer to anyone’s race.

    Are lefties incapable of telling th truth? It seems so.

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:13 pm

    NO, but calling McCain “Juan” is a slur at some ones origin. You are a slime,

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:30 pm


    I see you are also an a$$ hole. Rare these days.


  42. tnrc75 Says:

    USA Patriot-if you really don’t understand why it’s dismissive to refer to Sen. McCain as Juan, you’re just being obstinate. You know that Beck doesn’t like any sort of compassion towards Latinos and so he and his dittoheads like to refer to the Sen. that way. Now most of us here probably don’t agree with the Sen. on a lot of things, but it shouldn’t be difficult to show some respect.


  43. tnrc75 Says:

    Only because you disingenously claim ignorance. If you were only honest enough to admit your party’s vicious, un-issues-related attacks, at least you could be respected for being honest but you claim ignorance.


  44. tnrc75 Says:

    Learn to read……like I said, I guess I have to say this again. Read slowly if it’s hard to comprehend a series of ideas consecutively: I said if you weren’t condemning the comments of Beck and his waterboy, you are implicitly endorsing them. Dope.


  45. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    Are lefties incapable of telling th truth? It seems so.

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:13 pm

    Aww, your comments are so disingenuous.

    Why else would Beck refer to him as “Juan”?

    Yes, it is racist.


  46. Joefriday Says:

    I see you couldn’t answer a simple question and instead resorted to juvenile name-calling. All too common on the left these days.

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:38 pm


    I see you want to have a intelligent exchange about issues effecting our country. I wonder where most people with the first name of Juan ancestors are from. Maybe you can help? Or go $uch you self.


  47. The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    “… but you claim ignorance.”

    Comment by tnrc75 — January 31, 2008 @ 10:40 pm

    It might not be an act, tnrc. It just might be genuine ignorance.


  48. Joefriday Says:

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:38 pm

    Come on a$$ wipe bring it on.


  49. tnrc75 Says:

    USA Patriot: you’re the one who thinks we’re impugning an innocent man, so you tell us what you think he meant.

    And no, Republic, sadly this isn’t ignorance. It’s faux ignorance to maintain plausible deniability that there isn’t a large swath of his party which is racist.

    So tell us Mr. More Patriotic than Us, what possible reason could your representatives have for calling the senior Senator from Arizona Juan McCain.


  50. Joefriday Says:

    Ah, so Beck is racist against white Europeans, like from Spain? Is that it?

    Comment by USA_Patriot — January 31, 2008 @ 10:51 pm

    No, just a plain old racist like you. Remember, scum floats to the bottom.

    Boy, it is going to be very interesting watching what happens if John McCain is the candidate. Can you imagine how quickly all the right wing talking heads will change their tune. They will all be saying how wonderful John McCain is and that they have always thought that way. Kind of like Chris Matthews.


  91. bilbobaggins Says:

    That’s just the kind of immaturity and bile people expect from leftist hate sites like this one.
    Comment by USA_Patriot

    Poor widdle USA got his feelings hurt. I think he should go back to redstate where they will pat him on the back and tell him how special he is. At least he has the right to post on this site. A right that is not afforded to anyone on the left at redstate.


  92. bilbobaggins Says:

    Gotta have a little fun, but you are right. Scum like that do not deserve a respone.
    Comment by Joefriday

    Try talking about them instead of to them. It’s a lot more fun and it doesn’t validate their existence by recognizing them as worthily of talking to directly. When you engage with them personally, you are just giving them what they are looking for, personal validation.


  93. bilbobaggins Says:

    I am placing a bet that if John McCain gets the Republican nomination, he will change his tune about immigration. He will “see the light” and come to realize that we have to do something about the scourge of “illegal immigration” and build a fence along the entire border with Mexico.

    Having anything other than a staunch anti immigrant stand in the Republican party will be suicide in the general election.


  94. piltdown Says:

    I wonder if RedState will crack down on insults against Iraqis or Iranians now?


  95. Dumb_Fox Says:

    What is not fine, okay, or within the bounds of the rules, is to use Latino names as an insult.

    What about other ethnic slurs?


  96. bernarda Says:

    The Mittster’s father, George, was a Mexican born in Chihuahua. He probably didn’t even have the right to run for President. From Wiki,

    “Romney was born in Colonia Dublán, Galeana, in the Mexican state of Chihuahua to Gaskell Romney (1871-1955), born of English grandparents, and wife Anna Amelia Pratt (1876-1926), born to an American father and a German mother. Romney’s grandparents were polygamous Mormons who fled the United States because the federal government was hunting down polygamists.”

    Notice the international pedigree of Mittster.

    However, father George apparently was not a wingnut wanker like Mittster. “As Governor, Romney’s managerial expertise stood him in good stead. He reduced the state deficit by imposing new taxes and promoted progressive policies especially in the field of civil rights.”

    Can anyone imagine a Rethuglican doing that today?


  97. bernarda Says:

    I also found out by reading here and elsewhere that John McCain was born in the Panama Canal Zone, which was recognized as Panameen territory back in a treaty of 1936. So is McCain a native-born American who is eligible to be president? The Canal Zone was not sovereign American territory.


  98. IgnoranceIsNotBliss Says:

    If Mittens wasn’t born in the United States, how can he run for president?

    A McCain candidacy would destroy the era of dickhead Republicanism. Or at least damage it significantly.

    Scarborough this morning I think said that no GOPper can can elected to any position without the support of Lush and Dobson - I don’t know if Joe realized how stupid he sounded as McCain closes in on the GOP candidacy.

    His McCain hate though stems from his religion, both he and Romney wear the funny underwear and will be Gods of their own little world one day according to some white trash fortune teller from NY.

    I see you couldn’t answer a simple question and instead resorted to juvenile name-calling. All too common on the left these days.

    These guys sold their souls to AEI, PNAC, AIPAC and now it’s come back to bite them in the ass.

    To comment #103:

    HA! It has been very funny to watch Tweety this past week after his man-crush went to Florida to expire. Priceless.

    I can’t say anything bad about Glenn Beck. He’s a little upset because some in government and in the world of the elite and corporations want to turn America into a region instead of a country and illegal immigration and amnesty will help to complete the transformation of our country.

    Calling John McCain Juan hardly amounts to “hate speech” although it is a little childish. I understand completely where it’s coming from. McCain is one my senators and he, just as our Congress, ignores what the people want and does just as he pleases.

    Janet Murguia of La Raza is pushing the “hate speech” propganda button right now. Funny — but the slogan for La Raza is “Por la raza todo; furera de la raza nada. It means for the people (Hispanic people) everything; outside the race nothing.


  109. Stetla Says:

    Uh call me crazy but doesn’t Glenn have as much right to say what he thinks as you do? Even if you don’t like what a person has to say they have a right to say it. At least that was the way it was last time I checked the Bill of Rights.
