POPSHate-Mongering Conservative Commentators Use Swine Flu To Promote Racism!
"What happens if there's a rash of deaths in Mexico... and if you're a family in Mexico and people are dying and Americans are not, why wouldn't you flood this border?" announces Glenn Beck. These loud mouths are also trying to convince their audiences that Islamic terrorists have somehow been able to do what has eluded scientists elsewhere in the world — concoct a deadly new flu virus — and then introduce it into the Mexican population. "What better way to sneak a virus into this country than to give it to Mexicans....then spread a rumor there there are construction jobs here, and there they come," blathers Boortz. the first American cases of swine flu have turned up in New York City students who recently returned from a trip to Cancun, Mexico — they brought it with them. They're the human mules! American tourists returning from Mexico are at this point virtually all the other culprits spreading the new flu! The fact that this new flu is just an excuse to spread racism becom

POPSRush Limbaugh's 10 Most Intelligent Remarks/s 7. “We are a growing country and everybody needs energy! We're not going to stay the United States if we start reducing energy usage. Conservation is not the answer.” 8. To a black caller: “Take that bone out of your nose and call me back.” 9. On torture at Abu Ghraib: “This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation. And we're going to ruin people's lives over it, and we're going to hamper our military effort, and then we are going to really hammer them because they had a good time. You know, these people are being fired at every day. I'm talking about people having a good time, these people—you ever heard of emotional release? You ever heard of need to blow some team off?” 10. “Screw the world. Do you really think we ought to govern ourselves based on what the world thinks of us?”

POPSJoe Scarborough Claims Obama Is Targeting Veterans What if Dick Cheney decided that he was going to target liberals? … Can you imagine what certain newspapers and cable news shows would do if George Bush and Dick Cheney decided to target democratic loyalists, and say that they may be a terror threat? Of course, DHS already wrote a report on “left-wing extremists,” completed earlier this year. “This is the job of DHS, to assess what is happening in this country, with regard to homegrown terrorism, and determine whether it’s an actual threat or not, and that’s what these assessments do. This is nothing unusual,” a DHS official told Fox News. More importantly, the report did not target “conservatives” or “Republican loyalists.” Indeed, it’s odd that conservatives like Scarborough would willingly group themselves and Republicans in with “rightwing extremist activity, specifically the white supremacist and militia movements” — the actual focus of the DHS report. Scarborough is not alone in this lumping, however; yesterday, Michell

POPSFOX And Senator DeMint Worried ACORN Will Protest Their Tea Parties (LOL) MEGYN KELLY: Here you go, I’m just reading exactly what they say. ACORN calling this thing, that they’re going to have rallies of their own and saying that they’re going to promote Barack Obama’s economic policies and saying everyday the conservative movement concocts a new fantasy about ACORN, but that they support President Obama, including I guess his taxation policies. It's protesting for them, and "disrupting" if anyone protests them.

POPSGlenn Beck Says He Made A Mistake, Communism Isn't On The Rise, Fascism Is Moreover, fascism was always populist -- a very specific, producerist kind of right-wing populism. That's hardly what has proceeded from Obama and the Democrats, who if anything are looking more corporatist by the day. So when we look at the reality of fascism, both historically and in the present, the only serious likelihood of any coming strain of fascism is proceeding, as we might expect, from the populist corners of the right, especially as it indulges and encourages eliminationist rhetoric directed at various "liberal" and minority targets (Latino immigrants in particular).

POPSGlenn Beck: If You Take What I Say As Gospel, You're An Idiot I added some links at the bottom from related posts. The titles alone define his insanity. I wouldn't need to say anything more if I wanted to debate his presence of mind. I'd simply point to the links and their titles: * Beck Rants Against Polar Bears: ‘They Eat People! For The Love Of Pete, They’re Big, Angry Bears!’

POPSBill O'Reilly Launches Another Attack On The Evil "Liberal Smear Machine" This is the same man who has declared openly that he would "get" various entities who displeased him. The New York Times: O'Reilly: Look, I'm gonna take this New York Times on. I mean it's war. Absolutely war. I've had enough. "The Far Left": Far-left zealots want to destroy America so they can rebuild it as a socialistic paradise, a hyper-Sweden. Those people are dangerous, and we will watch them closely. Advocates of war-crimes prosecutions for Bush and Co.: Finally, all Americans want the economy fixed and their families kept safe from terror killers. That should be Obama's primary focus. Those who continue to run this country down, and divert attention from those things should be condemned by the rest of us. Condemned. Now we're going to name names, coming up in the future, ladies and gentlemen. It's going to stop. In fact, chasing down, stalking, and then ambushing Amanda Terkel is decidedly the behavior of someone who doesn't want critici

POPSFox News Host Apologizes To Canada Talk-show segment ridiculed country and its reliability as an ally in fighting terrorism just before four Canadian soldiers were killed in Afghanistan One of Mr. Gutfeld's panelists, Doug Benson, said he didn't even know Canadian troops were in Afghanistan. “I didn't even know they were in the war. I thought that's where you go if you don't want to fight — you go chill in Canada,” he said.

POPSGlenn Beck & Bill O'Reilly Save $400,000 Per Year On Bush Tax System Beck and O’Reilly are each paid over $10 million every year — more than 99.9 percent of Americans. This is a conservative estimate as it only includes their income from Beck’s $10 million annual contract with Premiere Radio Network and Bill O’Reilly’s contract with Fox News. By opposing Obama’s budget and protecting their Bush tax giveaway, Beck and O’Reilly are denying tax cuts for 95 percent of working American families. Will Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck really deny these cuts and prevent much needed investments in education, health care and energy, all to keep their $400,000 a year?

POPSGlenn Beck's Newest Hypocritical Rant Beck: Comrades! There is good news from the Western Front. Our glorious revolution is starting to take hold on a global scale. Just listen as Comrade Brown pounded our propaganda into the minds of the clueless capitalist pigs today. Listen up. Brown: We should seize this moment. Because never before have I seen a world willing to come together so much. Never before has that been so needed. And never before have the benefits of cooperation been so far-reaching. Beck: Ah, if we could just have the globe all together! Oh ho! How right he is! So if Beck's audience wants to write the British Embassy and apologize for insulting Gordon Brown, maybe they ought to apologize first for Beck's crude insults.

POPSNeil Cavuto Tells Glenn Beck He's Scaring People FTA: Cavuto: No, no, no. I am a realist and I look at it -- No, no no no. You are scaring people. And here's what you're doing -- Beck: I'm not scaring! I am letting them -- Cavuto: I am a big enough appreciator of history to know that we always get through these things. Now the government cannot -- Beck: And I believe that too. Cavuto: Then why are you doing this stuff in 2014 we'll all be eating lead? Beck: Because when the market hit 14,000 I said, 'Get the hell out of the market!' And when -- Cavuto: You, you will say -- people watch you in droves. Your ratings are through the roof. You're radio rock star. So everything you say, when you say it, they're gonna say, 'Gee, well, Glenn just said, you know, we're all gonna be dead.' ... I just think that you're scaring people. I love you dearly, because you are a rock star. I'm just saying, I look at it, I watch it in my office as I'm getting ready for my Fox Business

POPSChris Wallace Asks McCain If He Wants To Say, "I Told You So"? WTF! FTA: Wallace: You ever feel like saying ' I told you so?" McCain: Oh, I'm sure that would be pleasant feeling, but the point is we're in such a severe crisis.... "I told you so?" WTF is that? How dare Wallace ask that question? Have you no decency, sir? President Obama barely has had a chance to sit down in the Oval office and grab a cup of coffee and this jerk is basically calling him a failure and touting John McCain's ideology as the correct one even though it was that ideology that got us into this mess. And America solidly rejected John McCain and Sarah Palin to run this country. And it's the same ideology that is being used to obstruct every move Obama makes to try and dig us out. Do these right wing hacks understand that Obama's legislation hasn't had time to work or even fail at this point? There basis of criticism is all the about the stock market. The "STOCK Market!" The gasbags in suits that put us in this position. Do they also not understand that America h
