Not sure what this thread is about, as there's no info in the first post.

Is that why this forum is called the KK?

Beck is making shit up in order to freak people out and make them want to buy gold...which profits Beck's sponsors, which trickles right back into Beck's pocket.

Lying for profit...the American way.

Enjoy your lunch..hook, line and sinker.

He said that no other President had never been sworn into office without a Bible. He said he 'checked'.
He either did not check or checked up his arsegraped butt because he's lying. John Qunicy Adams used a law book. Franklin Pierce didn't even swear. He affirmed. Teddy Roosevelt used no Bible. Several Presidents kissed a Bible but did not swear on one.

Glenn Beck lied when he said recently that $1.4 million of stimulus momey was used to repair a door at Dyess AFB. The doors repaired were aircraft hangar doors and the cost was not $1.4 million.
The cost was $246000 out of $1.4 million in repairs funding.

Glenn Beck lied when he said that the director of White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, "has proposed forcing abortions and putting sterilants in the drinking water to control population."
This one is so good I'll just give you the link:

on JUly 22nd
Beck went on to claim that the financial reform law would create a "massive government bureaucracy with the power to watch your bank account and track every credit card account." In fact, the Office of Financial Research would simply collect and analyze data about potential risks to the financial system, a plan that's been endorsed by numerous economics and finance experts, including six Nobel laureates in economics.

Beck also claimed the law would "create a protected class of arbitrarily selected companies that are too big to fail" and that it would lead to the "institutionalizing of bailouts." In fact, the orderly liquidation fund, which would be paid for by financial institutions, would be used to dismantle failing firms -- not bail them out or give them some kind of protected status.


Top hits alone..google has THOUSANDS of Beck lies.

How Fox can give this man his own show and still claim to be 'fair and balanced' is beyond me.

No, no direct quotes. Just quotes taken out of context.

No links to a radio or tv show clip so one could judge the entire comment.

There is the possibility that Beck is speaking sarcastically, of course, but that doesn't make the jump from electronic to printed media very well, and it's hard for some to understand without the sarcasm tags....

So, you're saying that Beck is a comedian?

Really...he strikes me more as a joke.

yep, just checked um out.

Mr.B, those first 2 link are already gone it looks like...?

The John Holdren piece is a lie it's self.
Beck played the tape where John Holdren actually put the proposal out there.

You really should go deeper than scratching the surface on the web, and not
believe ever story that happens to line up with your 'views'.
