Glenn Beck Believes Gay-Handicapped-Black-Female-Immigrant Will Be Obama's Supreme Court Nominee

Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck prepared his listeners Friday for a "radical" Supreme Court nominee after news broke that Justice John Paul Stevens would retire at the end of the court's current term.

Beck believes that President Obama will--"if he's smart"--select a "gay-handicapped-black woman who's an immigrant" to energize what Beck perceives to be the president's flagging Democratic base. The Fox News host told radio listeners that the diversity of the imaginary, aforementioned nominee would be used against critics to "make the right and the middle-right into monsters."

Beck: She could be the devil, she could say 'I hate America, I want to destroy America,' and that way they'll only be able to say, 'Oh, Why do you hate gay immigrant black, gay, handicapped women.' Because that's what this has to be. It must be about.. And when I say this, I mean all of it.

They must energize their base. And Their base is getting smaller and smaller. Their base is becoming unions, thugs, MoveOn.org, Huffington Post--that's their base.

And anybody who has said, 'OK, wait a minute. I wanted universal health care. This is starting to spook me.'

They must make the right and the middle-right into monsters. Because they're losing those people on the middle-left ... those people on the middle-left back into their camp. And they can't do it without hatred and fear. That's all they're doing. That's why as they get louder, we must get softer.

Beck might be disappointed in Obama's nominee.

While there's no word yet from the White House about the identity of the president's selection, HuffPost reporters Ryan Grim and Sam Stein have identified Elena Kagan, Obama's solicitor general, as a frontrunner.

Beck's mind is no larger than the head of a pin...make that ..a needle. A very black-hearted "recovering" addict!

A "gay-handicapped-black woman who's an immigrant" appointed by Obama would be more qualified than any of the justices appointed by the Republican presidents.

You mean, after he is castrated and has both legs broken?

(I am not advocating violence, by the way).

If the Republicans had it their way...they would they make all the "brown" people in AZ wear icons of Sombreros sewed onto their jacket as ID?

If the BORDER STATES keep buying the BS that POOR people with NO money, NO property, NO lobbyists representing them in DC and NO real power, as the continuing CAUSE of YOUR economic problems..than you have more problems than you think.

ECONOMIC BLAME has been done before "Let's blame the Jews for our economic woes, because in all of history..all crime and economic woes is because of immigrants and jews!!

--------------------------------------------------
"THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

THEN THEY CAME for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

THEN THEY CAME for me
and by that time no one was left to speak up."

----"First they came ..." is a famous statement by Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) about the inactivity of German intellectuals following the Nazi rise to power and the purging of their chosen targets, group after group.

Amazing and astonishing that it is that anybody takes this guy, Glenn Beck, seriously, truth is, too many people do.

I know I won't be the one to figure out why, but I do know that trying to gently persuade, one by one, has some effect.

My most beloved (on a humor and affection level) brother believes the stuff that comes out of these Beck /kin people.

I do not fight with him on the particulars, I just keep my affection intact while telling him he is absolutely full of S*iT.

It makes him laugh, and the next time we talk he has usually softened his point of view on whatever the issue was (birtherism, for instance...I made him laugh as I asked him to scan and e-mail his birth certificate and I sent him mine. Both are illegible though official and legal.

Next time we talked he had moved on to another preposterous issue, but no longer questioned Obama's birth certificate.

Inch by inch.

"i do not fight with him on the particulars, I just keep my affection intact while telling him he is absolutely full of S*iT."
thank you for that : )
i have a sister whom i care about but she's devolving...she was one of thee most compassionate of people who seriously cried if anyone hurt a fly...a FLY..! ...so how she became this right-flingin' poster person for the repubs is making the family scratch it's collective head...she started mass emailing weird snippets from the grabbox of insinuations and lies and untruths that is the fluff of the stuff that the house of repubs is built on.....she makes no sense..!!
so the old aesop fable does works...should try that instead of wanting to throttle her in a kindler and gentler way of course...heh
but the moral 'slow and steady'
or as quoted by another
"Sometimes you can get to the end faster by just keeping your nose to the grindstone and plodding along (like the tortise) than by being fast but easily digressed (like the hare). Plus, the hare was an egotistical jerk that deserved what he got"

The problem is that they move on from issue to issue so fast that as soon as I have documented proof or videos or newspaper articles on one subject;, they are gone off to another.

I think it's easy to figure why people like Beck. He flatters his audience. We, as Americans, are creatures of vanity. We have been raised from the earliest age to place our personal self-worth in the hands of others for their distribution. Beck tells his audience, they ("the hard working americans") are good and those that wish to take what they have built are bad. He appeals to his audience by appealing to their vanity, our basest desire.

I love the way that Glenn Beck has to use props -black boards, horn rimmed glasses, etc. -to try to make himself look intelligent so people don't think about the fact that the words comming out of his mouth make no sense. If someone read the same words he says standing an a street corner, tjhey would be immediately considered insane or off their meds. Then again, I remember the moonies in New York used to use black boards to try to make their cases too.

Did you ever hear of conservatives referring to "middle right" during the Bush administration? Fewer people believe in UFOs than self identify as republicans, so that's all they've got.

I truly believe that this man has deep psycho;logical issues that need tending to at once! He is a danger to himself, and others.

Again, how the hell can people listen to Beck and make sense of it? To believe what the man says, you'd probably already have to be a die hard conservative to begin with. To any sane person, his logic is twisted to say the least. If I want to see a grown man fake crying, I'd just hit myself with a sock and look in the mirror.

Whoever Obama nominates will be far more intelligent than the choices offered up by the Bushes and Reagan. Roberts is an incompetent, Alito an extremist, Thomas a stooge, Scalia a sore. Good lord, it's amazing we still have a Constitution, albeit shredded and debased by fascist ideologues.

I stopped reacting to Glen Beck all together. The clown he is trying to get reactions, he is paid nicely for this, along with Rush Limbaugh. He is a entertainer but there are peeps that don't know that but they are the ones who joined the "teaparty".

Sounds good to me, as long as she is also an environmental and judicial activist.

Its funny how you are so disturbed with Glen Beck. Keeps you from concentrating on your BS progressive agenda. 2010 elections will decide if you are allowed to live in MY country.
12:31 PM on 04/21/2010
That's the difference between conservative and everyone else; you believe that it's YOUR country, and no one else who looks different or has a different opion than yours.

Everyone knows that the fake outrage over healthcare reform just was a mask to try to prove that "they" can't really run a country, and it blew up in your faces. I'm down for another "Waterloo" if you are.

Another example of Fox News Casting!! And the republicans idea of going after the hate vote

"gay-handicapped-black woman who's an immigrant"

Gay? Handicapped? Woman? Black? Immigrant? Except for the Woman, it sounds like the Criteria that Hitler used for populating his Concentration Camps.

And they paint Mustaches on Obama!!
