Glenn Beck calls out “Raj” and the IPCC
Even if you don’t like Glenn Beck (we happen to love him), you should listen to the video. He has a way of simplifying the complex, and here he takes on Rajendra Pachauri and the IPCC.

Maybe Barry plans to impose cap and trade through some sort of regulatory fiat much like he has had the EPA declare carbon dioxide a health hazard. Maybe that is why he is able to include this unhatched chicken in his budget calculations.
I find Beck problematic. Some won’t like this but he reminds me of the television talkshow host in “V” I know “V” is crap politics but consider it topshelf story-telling. That said Beck’s is often the only influential television program willing to tackle the most controversal subjects. Since he’s all we have in that respect I take him.
Maybe it’s just me, but Obama seems to be looking tired and worn in recent videos. I can’t help thinking that a year ago he really believed in what he was doing and now he is just staying afloat any way he can.
Obama really thought all that deficit spending would turn the economy around, but the debt is growing and US employment is shrinking.
Obama is an intelligent man, he must have at least looked through those Anglia emails for himself, and you would think he can see the cracks showing in the warmist argument. This would be around about the time of realization that he hitched his wagon to the wrong boat anchor.
Sorry Tel. It’s unlikely that Obama will turn from his ideological path in any meaningful way. His entire political history in on the far left of the political spectrum in the US. In this respect I would rank him as the most ideologically committed President since Reagan. Reagan had to bend and twist as all politicians do but his fundamental beliefs shaped his every move from start to finish. I have also noticed the rapid whitening in Obama’s hair and hope it turns off some of his younger star-struck admirers. I guess my take is that Obama likes the anchor he’s wearing and intends to go to the bottom smiling.
Glenn Beck is a dangerous man.
He just tries to let the right-wing crowd to follow him with populist themes, but then corrupts the movement with saying that Ron Paul supporters are terrorists and that the bank bailouts are good.
He is like an infiltrator.
Glenn Beck may be a dangerous man, but to whom? I watch (and listen) to Beck a good deal and while I don’t agree with everything he believes and I think he overstates much of what he says to get attention (could it be Beckgate?), I don’t remember Beck supporting the bank bailouts or calling Ron Paul supporters terrorists. Please keep in mind that he uses humor to make a lot of his points and so he says things that can be misunderstood if you don’t pick up on the satire. The good news is that Glenn Beck will never be the leader of the free world!! The danger lies elsewhere.
Glenn Beck is dangerous to republicans who still believe in the left-right paradigm.
Here is a video where he wants to link Ron Paul supporters to terrorism:

Can’t find a video of his support for the bailouts, but a transcipt is easy to find:
“But these are anything but normal times. I thought about it an awful lot this weekend, and while it takes everything in me to say this, I think the bailout is the right thing do.
The “REAL STORY” is the $700 billion that you’re hearing about now is not only, I believe, necessary, it is also not nearly enough, and all of the weasels in Washington know it.”
Glenn Beck is so energetic during his tv delivery that I can only stand so much of him. I have the same problem if I drink too much coffee. But a “danger”? No way. Have you read his “Common Sense” ? If he ran for either of the Virginia senate seats, particularly Warner’s, I’d vote for Beck in a heartbeat. Whether or not Beck was in favor of the stimulus, I’d bet right now his position would be to return the unspent $$ to the Treasury and instead reduce taxes.
