Glenn Beck: ‘Nancy Pelosi Will End Up Killing Americans’
Glenn Beck: ‘Nancy Pelosi Will End Up Killing Americans’
On his CNN Headline News show last night, conservative talking head Glenn Beck fumed about the House leadership’s decision to let the Protect America Act (PAA) expire this weekend. This was “an extension requested by the president,” exclaimed Beck.
Beck then jumped on President Bush’s fearmongering bandwagon, claiming that the House leadership — specifically Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — would be responsible for the death of Americans:
BECK: He feels — and I happen to agree with him — that this congressional game-playing by Nancy Pelosi will end up killing Americans.
Watch it:
Like Bush, Beck is overhyping the consequences of the law’s expiration.
In fact, not only will surveillance begun under the law be able to continue, but intelligence officials can initiate new surveillance against suspected terrorists by simply getting a warrant through the FISA court. The warrants can even be obtained after the surveillance has begun.
Intelligence experts, like the Cato Institute’s Timothy Lee, believe the expiration of the Protect America Act doesn’t deserve the vapors the right wing is getting over it:
“There’s no reason to think our nation will be in any more danger in 2008 than it was in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, or 2006,” [said Lee].
Ben Wittes of the Brookings Institution said because existing warrantless surveillance begun under the temporary laws could continue for up to a year, the “sky is not falling at all.”
If Beck really thinks the expiration of the PAA will cause Americans to die, he should bring it up with the president and his allies in Congress who blocked another temporary extension of the law.
Transcript:
Now, after 9/11, you remember we came up with all kinds of new — aggressive, new laws to combat a new kind of enemy. One of them was the Patriot Act. Another one was the Protection — Protest America Act. This was an extension of our eavesdropping. It helped our government listen in and find terrorists.
Well, over the weekend, the House failed to pass this Bill, which would have prevented the Protect America Act from lapsing, an extension requested by the president. It`s got a six-month sunset over and over again. He feels — and I happen to agree with him — that this congressional game-playing by Nancy Pelosi will end up killing Americans.
Now, what could be even more terrifying than that fact is that congress may be acting with reelection in mind and not your safety. Critics are saying now that the House caved to special interest groups, mostly trial lawyers who want their rights to sue these big, huge phone companies that release sensitive information to the government.

Why is this man given a public microphone? He is the real danger to Americans.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:54 pmNice to see the conservatives found a use for their old “trial lawyer” talking point. It must have been gathering dust by now.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:54 pmThe FISA law enacted last August was for one year duration.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:56 pmThe only thing expiring is the telecom immunity.
That’s not going to kill anything. Except the telcos who broke the law upon request of BushitCo.
How many Americans has G.W. Bush killed? How many times has Glenn admonished him?
The deaths due to Bush are not hypothetical, they are real, and they continue every single day!
February 19th, 2008 at 12:56 pmThese right-wing morons are making messes in their underwear hoping for a terrorist attack since the PAA expired. These traitorous yellow cowards want Americans to be killed to prove their twisted point.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:57 pmIt’s just too bad that President Drunky McChimp actually caused PAA to expire…
Don’t you just love these fear-mongering repubs? That’s all they have is fear.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:57 pmWhat a bunch of idiots and beck is one of the worst.
…but…but…but…I thought it was Hillary Clinton who was killing Americans! Or was it Barack Obama who was killing Americans? Oh wait — it’s Americans voting for Democrats who are killing Americans!
There’s no more water in this well. Give it up.
February 19th, 2008 at 12:57 pmHow many times have conservative posters come into these discussions and accused liberals of “wanting the economy to fail” or “wanting to fail in Iraq” when we criticized policies?
Wouldn’t you also argue that Glen Beck WANTS there to be a terrorist attack to prove he’s right? Isn’t Glen Beck just ASKING for a terrorist attack?
February 19th, 2008 at 12:58 pmIt hardly needs pointing out, but Beck is a fu(king idiot when he says This was “an extension requested by the president,†exclaimed Beck”:
http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryId=109131
US President George W. Bush on Wednesday vowed to veto another temporary extension of a domestic spying law and pressed Congress for a long-term fix to shield phone companies that cooperated with his warrantless eavesdropping program.
…
“The time for debate is over,” Bush told reporters in the Oval Office. “I will not accept any temporary extension.”
I’m not the first to point out this particular truism, but it comes down to this:
Bush says that Americans will die if PAA is allowed to expire.
Bush will not sign a renewal of PAA if telecom companies aren’t granted immunity from past law-breaking.
Ergo, Bush puts the interests of telecom companies above those of keeping Americans secure.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:00 pmWouldn’t you also argue that Glen Beck WANTS there to be a terrorist attack to prove he’s right? Isn’t Glen Beck just ASKING for a terrorist attack?

There are gay vegetarian pacifists who are more courageous and manly than Glennnn Beck.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:03 pmIs he jealous or what?
Does he want everyone to die from having to watch Bushie instead?

And you know darn well that the very people who are now praising Bush to the skies because “he has kept us safe” will immediately point accusing fingers at Democrats if we are subjected to another Al-Qaida type attack, no matter how small.
I assume then, in the minds of the fearmongers, that the ONLY reason Bush has “kept us safe” is because his government hasn’t been required to get a warrant to listen in on phone conversations? Gee, and all this time I thought the reason he has “kept us safe” is because “we’re fighting them over there so we don’t have to fight them over here”!
February 19th, 2008 at 1:04 pmgay vegetarian pacifists
on behalf of said group, it takes lots of courage in today’s society to be any of those three groups.

I’d say about 98% of gay vegetarian pacifists are more courageous than amoral coward intentional moron Glennnn Becky.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:06 pmer, “a member of any of those three groups’, if you will…
February 19th, 2008 at 1:06 pmBeck’s logic is wrong. His alarmist fearmongering has corkscrewed him into the ground (once again). During an election year, the driving forces in the house and senate are to appease the masses and not to push any bill that would incite one group or another so much that they could be voted out.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:07 pmDarth Cheney and his PNAC crowd already did that on that sunny, Tuesday September morning 6.5 years ago.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:07 pm“Critics are saying now that the House caved to special interest groups”
———————————————–
Yeah, finally. The “special interest group” being the people who elected them.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:07 pmWTF does this idiot think Bush is doing right now?

And 100% of the gay vegetarian pacifists I know don’t even listen to Glenn Beck.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:09 pmUmmm Glenn — decisions made by some U.S. politicians have already caused the unnecessary deaths of countless Americans. The politicians I refer to are George Bush and Dick Cheney and the unnecessary American deaths they are responsible for are the ones related to their abject incompetence and hubris which allowed 9/11 to happen on their watch followed by their equally disastrous and corrupt decision to invade and occupy Iraq. Their decision to wage war in Iraq was based on manufactured intelligence and lies to the American people and the world — they also used fear-mongering (imminent mushroom clouds over American cities) to cow the American public into supporting their corrupt agenda. Add to that the tens of thousands of Iraqi civilian deaths directly related to this amoral war (mostly post-invasion) and what you have are actions that in a sane world would be considered war crimes. So Glenn Beck, you can take your pissy-pants, wild-eyed fear mongering and shove it as far up your sphincter as it will go.
Just saying . . .
February 19th, 2008 at 1:11 pmGlenn Beck: ‘Nancy Pelosi Will End Up Killing Americans’
Don’t take the bait.
Pelosi has already enabled Bush to kill a million Iraqis.
Vote for Cndy Sheehan.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:12 pmBLECH: He feels — and I happen to agree with him — that this congressional game-playing by Nancy Pelosi will end up killing Americans.
2 Questions:
1) Whose watch was it during 9/11?
2) Who prematurely jumped the gun to invade Iraq, thus securing the deaths of thousands of our brave men and women?
’nuff said!
February 19th, 2008 at 1:13 pmo’ shoooooot, this actually makes me laugh and say wtf? i guess bush has been nothing but bringing good will to all. this is so over the top it’s the stutterin stupidity of the american folks. but what makes it scary is that these are the folks that are ruling the world.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:14 pmThe reason radical righties are up in arms about this bad, temporary law expiring is that they can no longer spy on you, me, and any Democratic candidates. How will they be able to install sell-out John McCain in the White House without wiretapping Obama, Clinton, and the DNC? In a fair and square contest we kick their collective asses so as usual, they resort to their regular MO, CHEATING!
February 19th, 2008 at 1:16 pmTracy proves once again that he doesn’t believe in the rule of law.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:17 pmExcuse me, Mr. Beck, but it was George Bush who vetoed the Protect America Act and not Nancy Pelosi. Get your stories straight, please.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:18 pmWhere are our trolls? Where do we hear the usual drum beat that we need a fascist government to remain safe?
How do these idiots keep supporting this administration that has still failed to bring AQ to its knees, faces a worsening condition in Afghanistan and a war in Iraq that has lasted longer than WWII without a real definitive success? I am tired of hearing that insurgencies take a long time to put down. There was never a reason for the insurgency to have started had the Republicans shown the slightest bit of common sense in their planning for the war and the occupation. But noooooo - these idiots know everything. There was no reason to calm the civil unrest that arose weeks after the fall of Saddam. Nooo- there was no reason to maintain the Iraqi military. Oh Nooooooooooooo - there was no reason to maintain control over all those weapon dumps.
Would not any reasonable person start to wonder why all of these dire measures are needed now? Would not any reasonable person question the quality of the president and his political party that believes that we will always have to live in fear of our lives? What mother Fu ing incompetents.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:18 pmComment by Tracy2 — February 19, 2008 @ 1:10 pm
How do you explain that Bush instituted warrantless wiretapping with the aid of the telecoms MONTHS BEFORE 9/11, yet failed to stop 9/11? If you really think that this is meant to combat terrorism, you obviously need to stop swallowing everything you hear from this criminal administration…and the fact is you just repeated Glenn Beck’s the GOP talking point. At least you didn’t plagiarize…

February 19th, 2008 at 1:19 pmAnd by the way, what is wrong with “trial lawyers”, Tracy? Do you prefer corporate lawyers who shield their companies from liability when they act in a depraved manner that kills their customers? The trial lawyers are the only lawyers that represent actual people, as opposed to corporations or the government.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:19 pmBush can still get warrants, even retroactively, for his spying… he’s relying on the stupidity of his base to believe and amplify these threats…
February 19th, 2008 at 1:21 pmCongress Briefed on Waterboarding in 2002
In September 2002, four members of Congress met in secret for a first look at a unique CIA program designed to wring vital information from reticent terrorism suspects in U.S. custody. For more than an hour, the bipartisan group, which included current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), was given a virtual tour of the CIA’s overseas detention sites and the harsh techniques interrogators had devised to try to make their prisoners talk.
Among the techniques described, said two officials present, was waterboarding, a practice that years later would be condemned as torture by Democrats and some Republicans on Capitol Hill. But on that day, no objections were raised. Instead, at least two lawmakers in the room asked the CIA to push harder, two U.S. officials said.[..]
*** Pelosi has refused to impeach because she is an accessory to the war crime of water torture. Lets not let this story fall into the trash bin of history. Vote for Cindy Sheehan for Congress!

I could be wrong, but I think tracy2’s comment was directed at the “It takes courage to be a gay vegetarian pacifist” and, mostly, at the “gay” part. That whole “shoving it in other people’s faces” is the clue. “I’m not a homophobe, I just don’t want to know that gay people exist.”

February 19th, 2008 at 1:25 pmCongressional game-playing? I think that works on both sides. Let’s look at the scoreboard:
Nancy Pelosi and Congress –
Failed to extend the PAA because one of the contingencies was to grant immunity to telecoms who acted illegally.
Bushney –
February 19th, 2008 at 1:26 pmDemanded immunity for telecoms who acted illegally — not to protect the telecoms, but to protect the Bushney a$$. Blocked a temporary extension of PAA in order to force a vote on the extension (which obviously backfired).

it’s called follow the law and the law says to telecommunications that there has to be a WARRANT in order to tap anyones phone. these pricks are not obove the law and therefore they should be prosecuted for doing so and knowing it was against the law. the mere fact that there is a piece of paper called ‘the military commissions act’ and ‘patriot act’ and striping habeas corpus and our constitutional rights…….which allows bush to deem anyone(american or other) as a terrorist and strip all of their rights. and also allows martial law to be placed on the american people. katrina ring a bell???? see it all binds together and thats why the american folks need to revolt. what we stand for the nazi in the white house demolished it in the name of OIL,NWO, PNAC, BILDABERG, HALLIBURTON, CARLYLE……i call bullcrap
February 19th, 2008 at 1:26 pmGlennBeck needs to rephrase his statement. George Bush is responsible for killing 4,000 americans and 600,000 innocent iraqis. That’s fact/ not conjecture/not fiction. Stick to the facts, Glenn or you’ll soon become irrelevant to the american landscape.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:27 pmWhat does Bush need intelligence on terrorists for anyway. He had plenty of warnings that 9/11 was imminent and ignored it. In addition he was already doing this wiretapping before then and obviously didn’t pay any attention to terror alerts but only to the actions of his political enemies which he is obviously still using.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:28 pm56, they only cry the “rule of law” when it comes to Democrats. Republicans apparently are immune because they answer to a higher law, the law of the Almighty Dollar.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:29 pmbs: the revolt is coming soon. The only reason the people are not out in the streets right now is the sheer “hope” that Obama will bring an end to this communist/fascist regime and put their sorry butts in jail where they will get the justice they deserve. That’s the only reason there isn’t pandamonium occurring right now. The anger and energy is there and gathering. If the GOP steals the election once again, the people will surely riot.

If by “him” you refer to bin Laden, you should know that the Bush administration had made it very clear that “terrorists” were not a priority for them at all, prior to 9/11. So this is just another one of your ignorant distortions. The administration’s wiretapping without warrants had nothing to do with the subsequent “war on terra” and everything to do with their rush toward authoritarianism.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:36 pmAnd there you have it folks, fascism has arrived, and just as Sinclair Lewis said: Carrying a cross and draped in a flag.
I mean really, the right is whining about protecting Americans, but the bill won’t go forward because it doesn’t grant telecom immunity. Corporations over citizens people.
9. Power of corporations protected
Although the personal life of ordinary citizens was under strict control, the ability of large corporations to operate in relative freedom was not compromised. The ruling elite saw the corporate structure as a way to not only ensure military production (in developed states), but also as an additional means of social control. Members of the economic elite were often pampered by the political elite to ensure a continued mutuality of interests, especially in the repression of “have-not†citizens.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:36 pmGido: The only thing left to the rapidly-imploding GOP is the presence of total fakes at this point. So, what percentage of that 26-28% base is fragmenting away from McTorture? The percentage is waning of their true base….maybe half - which means that the GOP will have shrunk to about 14% by the time of the election. Very impressive!

Comment by Tracy2 — February 19, 2008 @ 1:28 pm
this is not a military issue……it’s called fbi. do we drop bombs on murderers here in the U.S? no…..police work that is how it is done. secondly what does clinton have to do with anything….clinton didn’t want him either….he was told by the ones who run this country. try and mess up saudi and then see what happens here in america….you think recession is bad it will be a depression like the 1920’s. and what happened in tora bora….bush had him and then said u.s. troops back off and let the afghans get him…..he escaped. don’t for one second think that wasn’t planned. why would bush go after the very folks that he is in the oil business with? why isn’t bush bombing saudi arabia since 15 of 19 of the so-called hijackers were saudi……the oil business that is why. and the only reason why he wanted saddam was because saddam put a hit on papa bush…..it’s called revenge. come on now this is not rocket science. FOLLOW THE MONEY AND THE PLAYERS BEHIND IT.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:39 pmOkay, Tracy, I accept your points in comment #87 as valid, though somewhat misguided. I don’t accept your reasoning for why telecoms should be allowed to break the law without consequence, and I don’t accept your claim that this lawbreaking helps protect Americans in any way whatsoever. So we can agree to disagree.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:39 pmI wish you would have told Gore that in 2000 by not attempting to break election law and that intervention by the Supreme Court could have been avoided.

You know, Tracy, I wouldn’t want you to let facts get in the way of a good conservative argument, but do try to keep in mind that Clinton’s CIA didn’t even confirm to him that bin Laden was involved in the Cole attack until some time in Clinton’s final 2 years (so I’m not sure where you get this “8 years” stuff). You also might want to remember that numerous members of Clinton’s administration expressed urgent opinions to the incoming Bush administration that bin Laden should be their top priority.

Glenn Beck is not only a moron he is also a liar. If the President requested the extension, then why did he turn it down.
Also, apparently the Moonie Times and Fox news disagrees with what he is saying. They both recognize that we are in no more danger today than we were before.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:43 pmTracy2: Go ask Katherine Harris all about how it was done. She and Jebbie had it all under their control. Gore knew what was going on so he chose a much higher path instead of playing games with scumbags.

No he’s not.
He’s a goofball.
Of course Beck says stuff like that, so the numbskulls on the far right watch to agree with him [most of whom probably could not find California on map, and as such, they remain unclear as to where this “Pelosi” fellow resides], and the idiots on the left watch to panic.
It is great for ratings and will probably result in a lot more money for Beck.

I don’t think she gets it………heh
February 19th, 2008 at 1:49 pmI love that Congress is making Bush twist in the wind on whether immunity for breaking the law will keep his butt off the grill. This is priceless. He stomped and threatened to cancel his trip to Africa (another lie) and didn’t get his way. This is one pouting, angry Chimp right now. And his propaganda megaphones, like Glenn Beck, are trying to gather a groundswell of support by making ridiculous claims and accusations. People are laughing in their faces. Glenn Beck’s a certified moron.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:49 pmLets just tie that hands of the intelligence community more and forbid them from getting any help from the phone companies.
It thinks we will be tying the hands of the intelligence community by saying that the government needs to get warrants to have our telephone companies spy on us. It is wrong as usual. The government can request a warrant to spy on us through the FISA court. The government can have the telephone companies spy on us for 72 hours before they need to get a court order. The problem is that they won’t get the court order to have a blanket spying operation like they have now. And this is a blanket spying operation that started before 911 even happened.
It is sadly lacking in critical thinking skills. It is the Borg, unable to think for itself, tied to it’s mother/father authority figures.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:49 pmThanks Ralph. Good catch. Yes, I meant that Clinton’s CIA didn’t confirm bin Laden’s part in attacks until Clinton’s final two weeks! It’s just unbelievable that people like Tracy will sit there and type something like “he had 8 years to get bin Laden,” but that’s the power of right-wing brainwashing on minds like Tracy’s which are evidently open to suggestion shall we say.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:50 pmBeck then jumped on President Bush’s fearmongering bandwagon, claiming that the House leadership — specifically Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — would be responsible for the death of Americans:
BECK: He feels — and I happen to agree with him — that this congressional game-playing by Nancy Pelosi will end up killing Americans.

February 19th, 2008 at 1:52 pmAll we have to remember is that the FISA rules were created to avoid what’s occurred right now - an overstepping executive who violates the 4th amendment and who will need to pay for that abuse.
Under current law, the pres and intel agencies can begin an immediate wiretap and continue it for 72 hours at which time they must go before the FISA court and make their case of “probable cause” in order to get a defacto warrant.
Why do you think that no defacto warrants were approved? Why do you think Bush never applied for a single defacto warrant? Why did Bush opt to not even attempt to get a pre-tap warrant? Because he knew he’d never be approved for warrantless wiretapping of politican enemies, that’s why.

Now, you might be confusing bin Laden as being involved in the first WTC attack. He wasn’t. Clinton’s Justice Department captured all those responsible for that, tried them, convicted them and they’re still in jail.

Regarding the 2004 bin Laden tape released just before the election, the CIA analysis of the video led them to the consensus view that the tape was designed strategically to help President Bush win reelection in 2004. Deputy CIA director John E. McLaughlin noted at one meeting, “Bin Laden certainly did a nice favor today for the President.”
