When I was sick the other week, I actually set out to watch Beck thinking maybe he had changed from his 'over the top' rhetoric on Fox News. Fifteen minutes into this program and my first thought was this guy needs to calm down or he is going to have a heart attack. Beck has had some good theories but now he sees a conspiracy behind every corner which is not good. His credibility is fast going away among people who think and actually research what he has to say.
There is a lot of legitimate items to criticize about this Administration and how they are running Government in their march toward the left. On the other hand if you take every little thing that is said while taking some out of context, you begin sounding like a continual 'sky is falling' individual so people will quit listening to what you have to say. Why not stick to what is wrong with the major agenda out of the Progressive Democrats in DC? When you focus on too many things at one time, you might win a few battles but you are going to lose the war in the end as people tune you out.
Objected to the Progressives and the mainstream media picking on everything President Bush said or did like it was the end of the world. Today I object to Conservatives doing the same thing to President Obama. What the White House served at the Super Bowl is not worthy of trashing. Never thought I would see the day that a conversation I might have with someone joking around, some pundits would actually report something similar. There is so much rhetoric out there from both sides it is hard to find the truth without spin. Found myself going to websites I have not frequented in the past to get some perspective.
Since Arianna Huffington is joining with AOL, I decided to check out her site this morning and found this gem between O'Reilly and Beck. On her site they reported what happened and attached the video for people to make up their own mind. Score +1 for the Huffington Post in reporting the facts not the spin.
Bill O'Reilly Dismisses Beck's Egypt Theory: 'No Evidence' (VIDEO)
01/11/2011
During the weekly "At Your Beck And Call" segment on his Friday show, Bill O'Reilly dismissed Glenn Beck's theory about the Egyptian revolution--namely, that it marks the beginning of an alliance between Communists and Islamic fundamentalists and will lead to a new caliphate across the Middle East and into Europe.
Beck repeated the theory to a skeptical O'Reilly, saying that the world is "seeing the beginning of the 'coming insurrection.'"
He said that the goal of the movement was "revolution" and "the end of the Western way of life," and that it would end in a caliphate. He also repeated his assertion that a recent New York Times article had validated this theory, because it showed that the Egyptian revolution was being organized by people from a wide range of political ideologies.
"I don't know if that's news to anyone," O'Reilly said. The Internet, he continued, made it much easier for people to say, "'everybody show up in the square.'"
"It's community organizing on a global scale," Beck said. O'Reilly was still skeptical.
"I know they're not going to be able to overthrow the army," he said. "I don't see that. But you do see it." Then Beck said that the revolution was coming to America and Europe, something which O'Reilly completely rejected.
"I don't see the constituency in Britain, in Germany, in the United States, I don't see it," he said.
"You don't have to," Beck said. O'Reilly said that, even if people tried, "they can't change governments and they can't seize power."
"I hope you're right," Beck said.
"There's no evidence that says I'm not right," O'Reilly replied.
