In an interview with Katie Couric for her new web-only show, Fox News pundit Glenn Beck said he thinks John McCain would have been a bad president because he’s “this weird progressive like Theodore Roosevelt was.” Beck added that McCain would be worse than Obama:
I think John McCain would have been worse — [laughs] How about this? I think John McCain would have been worse for the country than Barack Obama. How’s that?
Watch it:
Beck’s opinion elicited a fierce and angry response from right-wing radio host Mark Levin yesterday. “To say [McCain] would be worse is mindless, mindless, incoherent as a matter of fact,” Levin said on his radio show. He then suggested Beck is playing politics: “I don’t know who people are playing to. I don’t know why they’re playing to certain people.”
Levin never mentions Beck by name (he refers to Beck as “the 5 pm’er” because Beck’s show airs at 5 pm on Fox News). He concluded with this final dig at Beck:
I think there’s enormous confusion and positioning and pandering. It may be entertaining, but from my perspective, it’s not. It’s pathetic.
Listen here:
Beck is causing consternation for many right wingers these days. Peter Wehner, a former political adviser to President Bush, recently wrote that Beck is “harmful to the conservative movement” because he’s “erratic,” “bizarre,” and is too interested in “conspiracy theories.” And Rush Limbaugh recently suggested to Politico that Beck’s role in promoting the 9/12 protest was “cheap and disingenuous.”

Finally finally something from Beck that will drive the GOP crazy.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:16 amGlenn Beck has become Icarus. Giddy from being compared to Rush Limbaugh, and fancying himself the new string-puller on the right, he is flying too close to the sun.
He’s losing his focus, and is now just hurling random invective, forgetting that he’s annoying the choir that’s keeping him aloft.
He will fall. And soon. He’ll be lucky to get a local radio hate show in a backwoods market when Fox News has had enough of him.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:18 amI looked up pathetic and there was a picture of Mark Levin.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:18 amRight-Wing Radio Host Mark Levin Lashes Out At Glenn Beck: He’s ‘Mindless, ‘Incoherent,’ ‘Pathetic’
– - The TIME cover was the apogee, Glenn. Your 15 minutes is now on a downward arc.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:20 amWell. They’ve done just about everything except calling Beck a “Liberal” (or “progressive” or “socialist”. since it all seems to mean the same to these jackasses).
McCain undoubtedly WOULD have been worse, but Beck’s endorsement rings hollow.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:20 amFox News pundit Glenn Beck said he thinks John McCain would have been a bad president because he’s “this weird progressive like Theodore Roosevelt was.”
Okay, that settles it: these guys have NO idea what words actually mean, or else they have no intention of sticking to conventionally-understood uses of words.
John McCain? “Progressive”?
Whatever, Becky. In a just media universe, you would lose your chance at the mic for language abuse — let alone logic abuse.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:20 amBeck is:
confused
positioning
pandering
not entertaining
pathetic
erratic
bizarre
too interested in “conspiracy theories”
cheap
disingenuous
Excuse me, but haven’t we been telling you this for some time?
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:20 amI doubt these right-wing pundits like Levin or Limbaugh are coming out against Beck for any noble reason. They are probably just jealous at how much attention he is getting.
Beck’s comment that McCain would have been worse, while correct, sounded like pandering to me. It was Beck trying to portray himself as not being as crazy and viciously partisan as he really is.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:24 amPffft. I recall that Limbaugh trashed McCain as well.
Hypocrites criticizing one another.
How will it end?

B) Dimbulb liplocking Dreck?
C) A reciprocal teabagging?
D} All the above in no certain order?
Funny how the Reich loves them some Glenn Beck while his ranting benefits their party by stirring up hatred for the base. Say something against Grampy McNo and it’s time to step outside. They’ll prop up this lunatic until he blows his brains out on live tv. Then they’ll distance themselves from him and his loony 9-12ers. If it weren’t for the sad fact that his raving lunacy may cause one of his sheep to act out in violence (again) this would be fun to watch. Someone needs to save lumpy from himself but it won’t be Murdoch.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:26 amGlenn Beck, …John McCain would have been a bad president because he’s “this weird progressive like Theodore Roosevelt was.”
Yeah Glenn, pay no attention to all those neocons surrounding Wrong-way Johnny.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:28 amIt’s quite simple — Beck’s a narcissist, just like the rest of them. Clearly, his fellow right-wing narcissists like Levin and Limpballs can’t handle the fact that they have competition for the three brain cells being shared by teabaggers these days…

TR was the original trust-buster, rescuing the nation from the first incarnations of the robber-barons who threatened the welfare of the middle and working classes through the excesses of their greed.
Sound familiar?
Economic basics: economies don’t work very well when a tiny percentage of the population controls massive portions of the wealth. Eventually, the consuming middle class shrinks to the point that the robber barons have no more market for their monopolistic goods.

I just love it when the right-wing rant-jockeys start cannibalizing each other. What a beautiful thing to see.
I guess that’s what happens when you’re part of a dying industry that is quickly losing its lustre, its audience and its advertising revenues.
The last few remaining dead-enders will chortle, gurgle and struggle mightily as they go through their inevitable death throes. But die they will! And they’ll take each other down just like drowning swimmers grabbing each other and gasping for air as they all sink.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:35 amLoving this. To watch the wingnuts eat their own in public will be a fight worth watching. The more intelligent goppers already know that the extreme fringe is not good for the party. As they start pushing back on the self-proclaimed leaders of the party, the talking heads, there will be firefights.

September 22nd, 2009 at 11:38 amraynman, I gave you a vote up for your headline, which is EXACTLY the way we progressives need to be fighting these battles. We have to start using language and the media as the right wing does, although with truth rather than lies. Your headline is the truth and it puts the right wingers on the defensive, where they need to be.

The more relevant question is what did ACORN and Van Jones have to do with the big picture? ACORN is a not for profit organization that has been granted government contracts to pay minimum wage earners to do social work. Van Jones was a middle level worker in the environmental area of the administration. Now if you and GB think the world has been turned upside down, wait until you see the public option!

Another walrus larger larder louder older smellier than the first has sensed his harem is threatened by the less massive opponents battle drum tremors felt thru miles of ice.
Dark circled deep set sharks eyes meet, they emit fierce growling as they rush towards each other, flubber flailing, at a snails pace, the ice quakes and cracks, the seal harem splits into three cackling groups some hedging their bets byt cheering for both walruses.
The massive walruses, hours later, using vast quantities of energy in the bums blubber rush toward one another have slowed considerably and now the roaring is more like a rasping as the harems look bewildered at one another and finally with one last gargantuan effort they lunge, nanometers off the ice, at one another and fall silent both dead from the inhuman exertion

September 22nd, 2009 at 11:56 amI don’t even like watching mud wrestling when hot chicks do it.
But it’s kinda neat to see the righties finally meet their own, real worst enemies.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:57 amI do wish there comes a day when the commentariat around the web would ignore the likes of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly, et al. These right-wing media figures are a pox on the nation and we only help them by posting on their comments. They need to be marginalized, not highlighted. ThinkProgress, by commenting on their asinine behavior, only serves to broadcast their bile further. I’m sure the producers of Katie Couric’s show take comfort in that fact. It would serve the nation well to take that comfort away.

September 22nd, 2009 at 12:01 pmFrankly, from what I have read about Theodore Roosevelt, I’d take him (or someone like him) as President in a minute.
And, from what I have read about John McCain, he is NOTHING at all like Theodore Roosevelt.
From this I can only conclude – once again – that Glenn Beck does not know what the hell he is talking about.
Just because Beck’s lips are moving does not imply that his brain is functioning.
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:02 pmFinally the cannibalization of Becky has begun,please start at the top (brain) and work your way down to the voice box anything after that just throw it away.

Brilliant!!
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:05 pmAt this point, I’m convinced that Beck is some sort of performance artist … a person playing a character, kinda like Andy K. used to, and using the audience’s own perceptions as part of the routine to expose a deeper issue. And all of America is the audience.
Well, it’s either that, or the guy really is clinically f-ing insane and believes what he says. In that case, he needs to be locked away in a mental institution so he can get the help he needs.
There really are no other options at this point …
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:12 pmWhat is even more hilarious is that while Twajie has plenty of time to spam Think Progress, he doesn’t have the time to defend all his

September 22nd, 2009 at 12:22 pmIt works like this:
Step 1: The right lost its ever-loving mind over something trivial, or something their side does, but exponentially worse/more often.
Step 2: The not-very-liberal media picks up the story and repeats whatever the right says, regardless of truth and what happened in reality, and calls this stenography “reporting.”
Step 3: The gutless turds in Congress cave, once again, to the screeching from the right and do something (an admonishment, removal of funding, etc.).
Step 4: Rinse and repeat with the next distraction.
After all, if you — or any other wingnuts — possessed a shred of intellectual and/or logical consistency, you’d be screaming for the gov’t to cut funding for KBR, Blackwater (or whatever the hell they call themselves now), and other organizations who have actually, you know, had employees convicted of crimes, including murder and rape.
As of now, ACORN has never been charged with any crimes as an organization. None. Zero. Zilch.
Yet Halliburton defrauded taxpayers of $1 billion, and not a single comment has come from anyone on the right about how we should cut off all their funding and work to destroy them as a company.
I wonder what it is about ACORN that upsets the party of the Southern Strategy so damn much, given that no one had ever heard of them until the right went into full apoplexy mode.
Hmmm … wonder what that could be …

September 22nd, 2009 at 12:35 pm“I think John McCain would have been worse for the country than Barack Obama. How’s that?”
–Glenn Beck
To quote my favorite George W. Bush quote: Who cares what you think, Glenn? Who cares what you think?
As soon as Beck’s ratings start to dive, as soon as the blush is off the rose, as soon as this all starts to come back and bite Glenn Beck in the ass, he’ll go looking for that highway abutment at 70 miles per hour, just like his mother and brother.
Soon, and very soon.
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:35 pmBeck is a narcissist who wants to be the best and most important on air person in media. This behavior goes way back throughout his radio days. I didn’t know much about his background until I read the series of articles in Salon about his career. He’ll say and do anything to get the attention and he learned long ago that conflict, extreme hyperbole and goofball tactics are the path to this fame he craves.
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:37 pmI’m finally beginning to understand. Beck is bi-polar and seems to strike a chord with other Americans suffering from the mental anguish that American capitalism, aka our corporatocracy, has ingrained upon them. They hate big government and the system in place. But they like McDonald’s and believe they may someday be rich, so you better not tax the rich because that is a tax on their dreams for the future?.. No, no I’m still confused.
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:38 pmRush Limbaugh recently suggested to Politico that Beck’s role in promoting the 9/12 protest was “cheap and disingenuous.”
*************************************************************
Granted, Limbaugh’s criticism was probably motivated in large part (perhaps even entirely) by jealousy over the amount of attention that Beck’s been getting lately — such as the recent piece in Time Magazine — rather than any genuine concern for the country. It’s also possible he’s angry over the fact that Beck came up with the idea first and he didn’t — I certainly wouldn’t put it past him. However, there’s no disputing the fact when Rush Limbaugh accuses one of his fellow right-wing commentators of being a sleazebag, it’s more than simply a case of the pot calling the kettle black! When even Rush Limbaugh thinks you’ve gone too far, that says you’re a real scum-sucking bottom-feeder!
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:39 pmAnyone else look at that impish face and feel like back-handing it? Not that I would ever act on such a feeling, but I would surely want to. I don’t think I could be in a room with this guy.
September 22nd, 2009 at 12:42 pmWowee. That Glenn Beck interview has to be the biggest, wiggliest, stinkiest sack of batshit crazy I’ve EVER seen. (John McCain…a wha…???!!?? Progressive??? HUH???)
And MissMolly – kudos to you for your Icarus analogy – it’s PERFECT. And went Beckarus hits the ground, the wolves (Levin, Limbaugh et. al) will be waiting to devour him.

He’s pretty much exposed himself as not really believing in anything, just using his audience as emotional puppets. If he really believed in modern conservatism, he couldn’t possibly say such a thing. He does not. He’s just doing a dog-and-pony show for their amusement, and has no personal political convictions whatsoever. I’d be angry too, if I were one of them.

Great insight PP
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:16 pmThey’re starting to pile on:
Former Bush speechwriter Peter Wehner says “the role Glenn Beck is playing is harmful in its totality”
snippet:
I say that because he seems to be more of a populist and libertarian than a conservative, more of a Perotista than a Reaganite. His interest in conspiracy theories is disquieting, as is his admiration for Ron Paul and his charges of American “imperialism.”
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:17 pmYou got that right, P.P.
Mark Levin’s jealousy of Beck is eating him up on the inside.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:18 pmemployees are not the organization itself. By the way they have 13,000 employees. Do you think any corp with that many employees has that few convictions of employees?
Besides Acorn is a decent organization. That’s why you hate them. They register poor and minorities who vote agianst you.
This is nothing but voter suppression. The gop probably has 13,000 people trying to find mistakes that Acorn has made.

September 22nd, 2009 at 1:27 pmby the way pat/trajan, you need to prove the 70 convictions spiel. I find no such data to verify your claim.
That makes it mean less than nothing.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:31 pmThe right persecutes ACORN in order to continue their voter suppression of poor and minorities. That’s the only way GWB go close enough to steal his two elections. They want all minorities to fear registering and going to the polls.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:40 pmThis is a simple ploy: Beck earns street cred by enabling his adherents to say “But look, look! Glenn Beck said bad things about John McCain and George W. Bush! He’s soooooooo independent!” without actually opposing anything the Republicans are doing right now. He comes off as a mavericky maverick without doing any real damage to the party he clearly identifies with.

The Right hates ACORN because they’re effective. There is a good piece from last October on the subject here, but the real reason for the hate is simple:
What’s really fascinating is to do a search on “ACORN convictions” and see how many of the results are from blogs with names like “stoptheaclu.com” and “angrywhitedude.com”.
And, of course, the Wall Street Journal, townhall, et al.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:46 pmjimryanmd,
You got it. Its Wingnut 101 to basically say “Bush sucks…. but the Democrat would suck worse”
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:01 pmA few things:
1. Where is a cite for those numbers? Sorry, but your word is meaningless.
2. Were those 70 (IF true) convicted for what they did during their job duties, or for non-work-related activities?
3. You failed to address my point: Why has the right, the media and Congress failed to call for KBR, Halliburton, Blackwater, or any other group to have its funding cut because of its employees’ actions?
I don’t expect an honest, rational, or coherent response, but figured I’d try anyway …
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:11 pmYou’re right not to expect a response. Facts send them away.
facts have a liberal bias.

September 22nd, 2009 at 2:48 pmSo Levin went off on Beck because Beck went off message and dissed McCain — not because Beck actually damages this country.
Typical.
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:55 pmLet them cannibalize themselves – I will stand back and watch.
Actually, Levin and others are not criticizing Beck for what he said, nor for what he represents, (because all rightwing hosts are the same vile-spewing monsters) — they are criticizing Beck because he is stealing their thunder; he is catching up to them (a dubious honor, IMO); he is usurping their long-held place among the low-information voter, the knuckle-dragging, backwards thinking, gullible low-lifes of the population.
September 22nd, 2009 at 3:02 pmWatching Glen Beck is akin to watch a train wreck that is about to happen.
September 22nd, 2009 at 4:07 pm… Glenn Beck: ‘Mindless, ‘Incoherent,’ ‘Pathetic’. MMM, high praise indeed. Personally, I think he’s just fracking crazy.
‘Pandering’ is pretty close too. He’ll stunt any old way to keep the audience coming back for more fear and crazy.
September 22nd, 2009 at 4:07 pmHmmm … when I used the Great Gazoogle, I found that the “70 convictions” were NOT of ACORN workers, but the total number of true voter fraud cases prosecuted at the federal level.
From Newsweek:
So it looks as if our trolls are full of more crap than the average septic tank.
I know. Try to contain your shock.
September 22nd, 2009 at 4:58 pmI wonder if those “70 convictions” includes Ann Coulter’s attempt to vote in two districts.
September 22nd, 2009 at 5:05 pmPat, if you’re going to tell us to Google, please be sure to provide your own sources and links. Providing that snip of information without the link basically falsifies the claim and makes your evidence very scant.

Yes, because we all know what a terrible president Teddy Roosevelt was. /eyeroll
Whatever, Beck.
September 22nd, 2009 at 8:26 pmSounds like the right wing radio wackos are having a little tet e tet. Must be jealous of Heir Beck, he sells books, got his own “movement” does a comedy show, and has gotten the cover of Time and a front page on the NYT. Me thinks the Levins, hannitys and limbaughs are upset that they are not the center of the fringe whacko right. Pretty funny actually.

September 23rd, 2009 at 2:16 amWait a minute. Is Beck co-leader of the KKKonservanazi republiKlan party with the drugster limpballs? I gotta know.
With those two racist idiots leading the Death Panel Party, it don’t look good come the next election.
BTW, buck fush.
September 24th, 2009 at 11:02 pmHaha someone please pass me the popcorn! This is even more entertaining than Beck’s tv show (some pretty tough shoes to fill, but it’s hilarious with all his conspiracy theories, etc).
September 25th, 2009 at 3:02 pmGOP Dudes,
Try to understand Beck’s point. He’s saying McCain would be worse because, except for abortion, he would basically, slowly yet surely, take us down the same progressive path, but the great mass of Republicans/Conservatives would be lulled into complacency by the mere fact that McCain is ostensibly a Republican himself. Whereas, Obama, a Democrat, is CLEARLY taking us down the progressive path at breakneck speed (the pot of boiling water) and we frogs (Tea Party protestors) are hopping mad.
That is why Beck said McCain would be worse–because the vast majority of conservative would be unaware of the dangerous road he would take us down.
So, fellow conservatives, chill out, and give Beck a Break.
