Beck On Obama: 'You Are Not Like Him' (VIDEO)


First Posted: 05/20/11 09:59 AM ET Updated: 07/20/11 06:12 AM ET

Glenn Beck said that President Obama's Middle East policy will lead to the "destruction of Israel" and was more proof that Obama was "not like" Beck's viewers.

Speaking on his Thursday show, Beck--who has recently taken on Israel as a new cause, and will be holding a rally there in August--said that Obama's foreign policy speech (where he said, extremely uncontroversially, that Israel was occupying Palestinian land) was more proof that his chief world view was based in anti-colonialism.

"The key to understanding this president is colonialism," he said. "And if you understand this president you will understand you are not like him. And it has nothing to do with the man's color. It has everything to do with colonialism."

Beck said he had previously not understood "the infatuation this president has with world change to stop the colonialists."

Beck makes me think of the quote "It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool then to speak and remove all doubt" I am convinced that he actually thinks he's smart and would be shocked to know that anyone, outside of fox viewers, see him as nothing more than an idiot.

Dear Glenn, here is what really irks conservatives like you.

President Obama graduated from Harvard Law School. He was editor of the Harvard Law Review.

Hell, Glenn, you can't get no whiter than that. I don't care how red your neck gets in the sun.

What colonialists is he talking about-Belgium, England, Portugal, Spain, France? Is Beck proposing we go back to the 16th, 17th, 18th or 19th Century when European countries forcibly took over much of Africa, took over India and SE Asia, conquered South America, enslaved the local populations and stripped their colonies of their natural resources?

Obama graduated from Columbia, graduated from Harvard Law School, was president of the Law Review, (the most prestigious honor at Harvard), was a constitutional law professor at the University of Chicago School of Law, was elected to the US Senate and then elected President of the United States, so yes, Glenn, you and your viewers are not like Obama. Neither am I or anyone else in this country.

Obama's not a mindless, paranoid drone who clings to his Bible and gun? Good to know.

"Looks like someone is a little messed up with the good and evil scale. It's either the president or me"

...Do I even have to answer that?

The Balfourd accord was a deal between a Rothschild and the Brits, not America and the Rothschilds.

To hell with it.

"Good" and "Evil". This isnt WWII or Star Wars. Drop the Good vs Evil garbage.

There are a great deal of nuances that Beck, and the sheeple that feast at his propaganda trough are just unable to begin to comprehend.
