Not to be left out of the Super Bowl advertising controversy, or really, lack thereof, Glenn Beck opened his show today with a quick review of two of last night’s most talked-about ads. Namely, Tim Tebow and Betty White.
Beck mocked NOW’s “outrage” over the Tim Tebow ad — they apparently think Tebow tackling his mother glorifies violence against women. Which yes, seem like a bit of misplacement of resources. Beck followed up by wondering where was the outrage over Betty White’s ad?! Says Beck: “It’s not just violence against women, it’s violence again old women! Why the hate from NOW?” Or ball-busting ones, depending.
But the ad that really got under Beck’s skin was the $2.5 million Census advertisement paid for by the U.S. government. Money wasted!, says Beck, particularly from a president who likes to lecture us about fiscal responsibility.
“Do we really have to listen to this president preach to us about fiscal responsibility, maybe it’s just me but I think that’s a little like abstinence-only education taught by Tiger Woods. But what do I know. President Obama is a lot of smart things: he’s accomplished, he’s good-looking, he gives good speeches, he’s married to a woman with unbelievably well-toned arms, I hear. But he’s as fiscally responsible as a real housewife of Orange County at a Louis Vuitton sample sale.” Read more here.

Third Party Now
Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal owns a 7% stake in News Corp — the parent company of Fox News — making him the largest shareholder outside the family of News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch. Alwaleed has grown close with the Murdoch enterprise, recently endorsing James Murdoch to succeed his father and creating a content sharing agreement with Fox News for his own media conglomerate, Rotana.
Third Party Now
Last weekend, at the right wing Constitutional Coalition’s annual conference in St. Louis, Joseph Farah, publisher of the far right WorldNetDaily, blasted Fox News for its relationship with Alwaleed. Farah noted correctly that Alwaleed had boasted in the past about forcing Fox News to change its content relating to its coverage of riots in Paris, and warned that such foreign ownership of American media is “really dangerous.” ThinkProgress attended the speech, and observed attendees of the conference murmuring and shaking their heads in disapproval:
FARAH: There’s a flaw, a real compromise in Fox that you need to understand. And if you care about national security, you especially need to be attentive to it. And that is that Fox News parent company is News Corp has a significant ownership by a Saudi prince that many of you will be familiar with because right after 9/11 this prince very famously offered Rudolph Giuliani a big multi-million dollar check to rebuild and Giuliani told him to stick the check where the sun don’t shine because this guy was basically blaming America for what happened on 9/11. Well this guy owns a very significant percentage of the News Corp and has let the world know that he can get things taken off Fox News when he finds them objectionable and has in the past. And I really believe this is really dangerous for America.

What Glenn Beck said about the health insurance for dogs may not be so weird. My mother in law sent me an article about a lawmaker who is proposing just that idea. I listen to Glenn Beck every day. I enjoy his sense of humor and the information he's providing. I, too, would like to know just what his critics think he's lying about. Sad to say, I believe he is right about too many of these things and we would do well to listen and heed what he says before it's too late.

Millions of Americans, doing their small but significant part in the governance of our nation, are in the process of ending years of “Minority Rule” by the most liberal, humanistic, five percent of our population. Great job….keep it up….give God the Glory.
We must accept the facts a deal with them:
Must-See Video by Former Muslim & Black Pastor - Added 2/3/10
(1) There is a battle taking place around the world and it amounts to the SLAVERY of Islam vs. the Freedom of Christianity. The USA being the base and stronghold of Christian Freedom.
(2) Islam will not coexist in Christian America. Islam cannot accept our Constitution, our Rights, our Freedoms, including Freedom of Religion. If America falls, the world falls. And they know it.
(3) Obama is not a friend to Christians nor American traditions. He does not see the USA as deserving of world leadership.
(4) Obama is a Narcissist, a racist, a Socialist. He respects Dictators.
(5) As seen in his “State of the Union” - he loathes our Constitution and the Supreme Court. He has stated that in his own words in audio and video viewable at www.ameritianity.com.
(6) We are witnessing a setback for Socialism because “THE PEOPLE” have awakened
(7) The Role of Religion - Now we need to remove the Tax Threat from the IRS against ministers speaking the truth from the pulpit in the same way that the Supreme Court has said the Right to Free Speech does not stop a the front door of Corporations.
(8) Obama wants to control where the power lies in America. The power lies where the wealth is. He wants the POWER to lie in the Unions (now own 2 car companies) and the Federal Govt.
(9) Haiti - look where the AID is coming from, the CAPITALIST NATIONS
(10) Healthcare - WILL REMAIN PRIVATE
(11) Waterboarding & Freedom
"In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16 (NIV)

Read Marx's "communist Manifesto" . His ten principles are a checklist for not only Obama , but the progressive movement as a whole. Most of them are already in place. Even to Rahmbo's reference to the "flock of geese" bringing down the agenda. Scary stuff. Get your heads out of the sand America !!!!

@independent....Geez, I don't know...someone has gone out on a limb to give him a TV show. He has offered the red hotline phone number to anyone in the WH to rebut. Maybe it is hard for you all to believe his "lies" because what Glenn speaks of was not taught to me in school and will never be taught to our children. It is not hard to dig for the facts, but Progressive Liberals are so ideologically wired it is useless to ever discuss. Let me ask you??? Do you believe that Oprah really cares about you? That's a lie too.
