Hey, Maybe Glenn Beck Was Right

You may recall that, when the Egyptian revolution first popped into the news, Glenn Beck caught a lot of grief for saying that the American Left was in league with Islamists to destabilize the Middle East. What Beck said — or perhaps the way he said it — seemed a bit kookier than that, but [...]

Another Kooky Conspiracy Theorist

Glenn Beck won’t back down. On second thought, Bill Kristol’s right. Mark Levin’s wrong. We’ve got to purge these hysterical extremist wackos or else they might take over the entire Republican Party! “The communist plan for Hollywood was remarkably simple. It was merely to take over the motion picture business . . . [as] a [...]

Hey, Remember That Crazy Conspiracy Theory Glenn Beck Was Talking About?

According to every Serious Foreign Policy Pundit, it’s absolutely insane for Beck to assert that the Left and the Islamists are in alliance to bring revolution to the Middle East. However, as Donald Douglas points out, that’s what the Left is telling us: The neo-Stalinist ANSWER homepage has the announcement, “Emergency demonstrations: Stop all U.S. [...]

Glenn Beck Wants You to Threaten Violence Against Harmless Academics

That’s what liberals have been claiming. The Nation published several nasty e-mails professor Frances Fox Piven received because she has become ”the target of a relentless campaign to demonize her.” This accusation got repeated in a New York Times story with a scary headline: Spotlight From Glenn Beck Brings a CUNY Professor Threats And that leads [...]

Patterico: ‘Charles Johnson Doesn’t Care About Context or Truth Any More’

“I was such a small fish at the time. I realized I was basically committing blog suicide by going against him. But he was wrong.” – Pamela Geller, January 2010 It’s interesting how easy it has become to ignore Charles Johnson and Little Green Footballs. A couple weeks ago, Diary of Daedalus or the Blogmocracy [...]

Good News! Unemployment Hits 9.8%

It’s the most wonderful time of the year isn’t it? New York Times: In a jolting surprise to the economic recovery and market expectations, the United States economy added just 39,000 jobs in November, and the unemployment rate rose to 9.8 percent, according to the Department of Labor. Did somebody say “surprise”? Yes! Which can [...]

Malkin and Coulter Underrated?

Conservative Home, a new Web site run by people you never heard of, has published the results of a survey of “1,152 Republican activists” identifying their favorite pundits. The top five are Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Charles Krauthammer, Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity – i.e., the top talk-radio star, three Fox News hosts and and [...]

Wait Until Glenn Beck Sees This!

“Spooky Dude” by Chris Cassone. Video by Mr. Pinko of IOwnTheWorld.com. UPDATE: Dude! Re-Tweeted by Glenn Beck! How does this compare to getting Tweeted by Alyssa Milano? Don’t be divisive!

Buying Gold? Caveat Emptor

On previous occasions, I’ve made the point that gold prices are going up and that, in times of uncertainty – as, for example, when the Federal Reserve is pursuing a clearly inflationary policy — gold is a good investment. (Did I mention the DJIA lost 251 points this past week?) The title of my most recent post on [...]

Glenn Beck Criticizing George Soros? Beck’s a Jew-Hater, Says Media Matters

Sammy Benoit at Yid With Lid disassembles the latest product from the Smear Factory. Somebody needs to research whether Media Matters rang the anti-Semitism bell when the Left was routinely accusing the Bush administration of being controlled by a sinister cabal of Zionist neo-cons. Better yet: Why wasn’t it Jew-hating when Media Matters was going after Pamela Geller? [...]

You Should’ve Listened to Glenn Beck

Back in May, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) made himself political point-man for a left-wing attack on Goldline — which just coincidentally happens to be one of Glenn Beck’s few remaining advertisers. (Beck’s show is the No. 1 cable news program in its time slot, but has lost advertising revenue because of the Left’s vitriolic boycott [...]

This Is Exactly The Kind Of Sophomoric Stuff We Don’t Need

by Smitty (h/t Tabitha on Twitter) Just because conservatives did well Tuesday, there is no need for foolish triumphalism. We shouldn’t just go on an on about the trophies. And, really, isn’t all the taunting laughter beneath the dignity of our political process? How are we going to find common ground; moderate; achieve consensus; restore [...]
