[quote]he Egypt uprising has raised the stakes for Beck -- and Fox. In the past two weeks, Beck has viewed events in Egypt through his own rather warped filter. He claims that the rebellion is not about the people, not about democracy. Instead, he says, it's a move by radical Islamists to take over Egypt, as part of a larger plan to install a caliphate that stretches from the Middle East through Europe and toward the United States. And he contends that "uber-leftists" and Islamic extremists are "plotting together" toward this end. Last week on his radio show, he declared, "Groups from the hard-core socialist and communist left and extreme Islam will work together because they are both a common enemy of Israel and the Jew. . . . Islam wants a caliphate. Communists want a communist new world order. They'll work together, and they'll destabilize. Because they both want chaos. [/quote]

Has Glenn Beck gone too far?
93% of people who took this quiz got it WRONG!
Is it just me, or is Glenn even crazier than usual?
Fox News is definitely out there sometimes but this is just ridiculous.
To think someone this crazy has the privilege to brainwash his ideals to millions of viewers is even scarier.

just tell us your answer to win a free PS2
He hadn't already?
Ugh what pains me most is how I know someone who claims to be very liberal but he listens to this asshole and O'reilly religiously. Fox News really misleads people, even good ones.
I Love it when he pretends to cry.
What the fuck? I really think he's gone too far this time

It's all about dem ratings. The more grief you give him, the more money he makes. He is by no means a dumb man. He knows exactly what he's doing. He's in it for the money, and he gets more and more of it each time he does something outrageous.

Am I the only one here who thinks Beck is a mass-media genius? He's milking the shit out of everyone and you all just unknowingly give in. [i]You're[/i] the reason why he's so crazy.

Love him or hate him, giving him any attention is keeping him going.
"Hasn't BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA gone too far!?"
He is now fish% crazier than usual.

Yep. Him being crazy -> viewers -> ratings -> money. He's basically a troll. Hell, hasn't he even outright [i]SAID[/i] that he doesn't actually believe the crap he says?
He's also a gold seller. "Buy gold coins from Goldline! I use it!"
Missing part of that statement: "... to get rich off you dumbasses!"
This guys fucking nuts.
He's gone too far hundreds of times. I can't believe people listen to his shit.
Yeah he's stupid.
But the Muslim Brotherhood does want more power in Egypt, so I can see how someone as ignorant and fearmongering as he could interpret the events like this. But I have no idea where he's getting the communist stuff
I was going to get on my alt, Glenn Beck, and make fun of this, but I just can't; this is too insane. This is horrible. People believe this shit. HE MUST BE STOPPED.

Free speech broski
Since when was Islam "Uber-left"?

You can still be fired for being batshit insane. Just look at CNN. One racist comment was enough to get several people fired, but Fox clings to the craziest people they have to get ratings. It's sickening.

Since he doesn't know what hand is left or right to check.

Racism and ridiculous political ideologies are two different things.
one thing you have to realize with Beck is he really is making shit up to be edgy most of the time. most of what he says he doesn't even believe, though he does believe in the money it all drags in.

In the end, that's all that matters. Moral? Not at all. But they are a corporation, they're in it for the cash, and Glenn Beck is quite the cash cow
He went too far the day he was born.
At first he was somewhat rational, but now he is batshit insane to the highest level. I am sure he is doing it for the attention/ratings.
The only thing I think might happen is that they put someone in power that ends up only just a little bit better, or just as bad as they currently left off.
Believe me, if the offer had been made, he'd be doing the exact same thing for Liberals. He'd still do it if he was offered enough.The guy is actually very intelligent, he just knows what to say to get people watching. That's what being an actor is all about, saying what your audience wants to hear. I don't blame him for that, just wish someone would pay him to act crazy for a better side.
