I was expecting to hear some craziness on the Sirius Patriot channel, and it ended up being Beck having a breakdown while talking to a Rabbi. I never think anything he does is real, but he was sobbing and placing his children in the shoes of the refugees, and himself in the role of the parent that sent them north for their safety. I honestly hope he follows through regardless of the right's hate, as those kids need all the help they can get.

I applaud the effort, especially in his position...but this is still the man who is only not known as the sole inspiration for a murderous shooting spree at the TIDES foundation by the grace of a traffic stop, and has shown zero remorse over it even after the guy was interviewed in jail confirming Beck as the source of his info on the evils of a non-profit social welfare endowment.

Dinesh D'souza does some damage control:quote:D’Souza said that liberals are doing whatever they can to sabotage him because his movie is popular, and so is the book. Because while critics haven’t been kind to America, it reportedly has an A+ rating on CinemaScore. Meanwhile, BoxOfficeMojo reports a opening weekend gross of around $2.7m. It's total domestic gross right now is around $4.4m.

I remember Glenn Beck being the voice of reason once on Fox News after the marathon bombings where the hosts were going "We should water board this kid to see what he knows, revoke his citizenship and send him to Guantanamo" and Glenn flipped out and started saying the bomber has every constitutional right afforded to a citizen, you can't just revoke someone's citizenship, and no matter how hated or dangerous the kid was it was no excuse to trample his rights. It was strange, and surreal, because the hosts and other guests kept pressing him with "Oh but what if there's another bomb/ticking time bomb scenario" and trying to get him to agree that Dzhokar should be classified as an enemy combatant and lose his rights, and Glenn kept going "No, never, not under any circumstances, he's a citizen."

Beck is trying to have it both ways. Dude is going down there with Mike Lee and other anti-immigration assholes. They want to appear to care, while they continually block immigration reform in DC.WoodrowSkillson posted:Because while critics haven’t been kind to America, it reportedly has an A+ rating on CinemaScore. "CinemaScore is a market research firm based in Las Vegas. It surveys film audiences to rate their viewing experiences with letter grades, reports the results, and forecasts box office receipts based on the data." Huh, his film is scoring well with its audience. How baffling.

The other 20% he breaks ranks on are stories like these where I can imagine there being dissent from the wife/mother in a REAL AMERICAN marriage. It's probably more general than that, in that he's gunning for conservatives who really are more compassionate, but that's how I see it. note, "more compassionate" in this context means "the kind of person who doesn't see children coming to their countries border and immediately start talk about murdering them".

And I really didn’t think it would cause the uproar that it has.” Does she not consider that people criticizing her is as intrinsic a part of "America's founding principles" as her making a statement in the first place, or is "are free speech" something reserved for right-wingers and Real Americans™?

ErIog posted:These things are literally the loving exact opposite of the things that I said about Michael Moore. Go read what I said. I said that I thought Michael Moore's motives were quite pure, but that his chosen methods end up completely obscuring any real points he ends up making. I gave a specific example from Sicko where entire segments of that film were put in for shock value despite me agreeing 100% with Michael Moore's intention for that film. I didn't mean you specifically regarding the Moore hate. Really sorry if that was how it came across. On the whole "Bush's ranch and general silliness" angle, I saw that as an indictment that the whole War on Terror was never he apocaliptic, all-consuming generational clash it was being sold as. Just as one of his movies points out that huge tracts of the US border are watched only part-time by underfunded, poorly-trained people, it wasn't a way to ask for more Big-Brother styled surveillance (as Hitchens argued at the time when panning the movie), but a simple way of showing that the things they care about were not the things they said they cared about. Having a war president who claims to be fighting forces capable of destroying freedom forever spent inordinate amounts of time clearing brush, and rattling off buzzwords to the media before taking a gold swing are ways of pointing out that the narrative doesn't fit the facts. Bin Laden's relatives in the USA likely knew nothing about his doings, but the fact that they were all scooped up and shipped away without questioning, in the middle of a general grounding of flights, shows a lot about priorities, especially in a place as bloody-minded as the US is about interrogating people and getting confessions in other situations. I personally dislike his bombast. Though a friend who works in US media once told me that if you ever want to make it, you first have to sell yourself, then any message you actually to convene, and I've seen little to disprove her theory so far. His books are usually much better about that, since you're not restricted to 90 minutes of airtime and can actually offer context rather than going for impact.
