Glenn Beck equates global warming activism with Nazi eugenics.....

From OurFuture.org:


CNN host equates global warming activism with Nazi eugenics

Submitted by Rick Perlstein on July 28, 2007 - 10:27pm.

"Al Gore's not going to be rounding up Jews and exterminating them. It is the same tactic, however. The goal is different. The goal is globalization. The goal is global carbon tax. The goal is the United Nations running the world. That is the goal. Back in the 1930s, the goal was get rid of all of the Jews and have one global government." He continued: "You got to have an enemy to fight. And when you have an enemy to fight, then you can unite the entire world behind you, and you seize power. That was Hitler's plan. His enemy: the Jew. Al Gore's enemy, the U.N.'s enemy: global warming." Beck added: "Then you get the scientists -- eugenics. You get the scientists -- global warming. Then you have to discredit the scientists who say, 'That's not right.' And you must silence all dissenting voices. That's what Hitler did."

--Glenn Beck. This man has a show on CNN.

10. Exactly
What an intolerable jerk. The fact he is a voice on CNN is truly dismaying.

It's a cliche now, but the majority of the MSM has sold out and, in the process, has sold us out. I fear many of those who haven't just haven't had the opportunity yet. Cowardice and self-interest characterizes the press these days.

2. damn, how did he find out? who told him?
all these years of working preparing the world for the New World Order, and someone must have let it slip to Glenn Beck what we're really about. Who was it-- when we find out, we'll outsource your job to India and tax the carbon in your body.

Sadly Eugenics was Margaret Sanger.
Nazis just carried on the idea to an even more horrifying conclusion.

Birth control is a good thing.

IF it's a free will decision.

That wasn't the idea of Eugenics and Birth Control at the beginning.

We have to acknowledge the truth of that and move on.

6. Glenn is just a stupid man getting lots of money to do his "act."
He serves the right wing's purpose by getting talking points out
to the base and getting people like you and me mad. He is just
another Ann Coulter.

BTW



This flower "Golden Alexanders" was blooming in my front yard in the
winter of 2006 .... it's normal bloom time is May/June.

7. Why do we even discuss that enema of a human? It suggests his fetid views have validity. NT

8. Seems to me the Nazis were Right Wingers and Bushco is a closer comparison which makes Beck
a Nazi propagandist. If he wants to play analogist, we can certainly go there.

Idiot.

9. Send this to CNN. This is beyond the pale. What's the matter with CNN?
Beck is one of the worst; a younger, more Aryan Michael Savage. I for one intend to write CNN (again) and let them know this guy is a disgrace.

17. when you think about it
it is FAR more egregious even than the Imus thing. Oh, I know, Imus attacked women who were not in the public eye with an agenda, blah blah, blah...


But likening a former VP to Hitler, saying he has delusions of global dominance? This is not dialogue, this is inciteful. This comes close to stirring up the Aryan Nation to go after Gore.

CNN is already on my boycott list.

Hey, maybe we should be writing Ted Turner. He sold it and is no longer responsible, but shit, he has to be appalled. We should get him agitated enough to start speaking out.

11. No matter how he tries
he can't slash and dash enough to get a conterversary going. He wants to perk up his ratings, they are the lowest in the whole media. People just laugh and him and turn the channel. CNN pulled the plug on Zahn, when the hell are they going to drop beck.

After the dems get thru with O'reilly's sponsors they ought to start on beck.

12. OMG! You're SO RIGHT, Glenn!
Edited on Sun Jul-29-07 11:44 AM by kiki
There are a few issues to sort out though, like how do you load all the carbon dioxide onto the trains? And, since it's a gas, what do you gas it with?

Oops, I mistyped my subject line. I meant to say "OMG! You're a drooling fuckwit, Glenn!"

16. Who is he screwing to be able to keep his show?
How low do you have to go before you get canned from CNN?

Apparently, not even dismal ratings can scrub this idiot off the airwaves.

18. Funny. The Nazis got their ideas of eugenics
Primarily from American right-wing segregationist policies in the late 19th & early 20th century.

22. Boy, that's the best "Stevie Wonder is God" kind of "logic" I've seen in a while
The faux syllogism goes that God is love, love is blind, Stevie Wonder is blind, therefore, Stevie Wonder is God.

I can't belive Glenn Blech has been on the air as long as he has.

23. there is NO logic in those comparisons - Beck shows his ignorance...
AGAIN. And on this issue - the public sentiment is turning away from the GW deniers... so Beck going out there on this as HIS signature issue - and then coming off as crazy as a loon and dumber than a box of rocks - explains why he often can't even get 100,000 viewers for his broadcasts. What it doesn't explain is why CNN has given him a soapbox - didn't they used to try to convey the image of serious news coverage?

24. Glenn long ago admitted to being rat shit crazy
and it really shows how much of a piece of shit CNN is as a 'news organization' that they would headline him as a...I can barely say it...a JOURNALIST!

:puke:

Hey CNN, you can't get any worse than FOX...but you're getting dam close!

"This is CNN." :eyes:

25. Morans R Us
That's what they should call this crowd.

Their exaggerated fear of the UN is hilarious to behold.
