Hey, if it's on the 'Internets', it must be true!

Sounds like an attempt to 'Sarah Palin' old Glenn Beck.

Joe, you should know better than to spread gossip, unless you're a woman doing the laundry or getting your hair curled at the salon!

it also makes a nice parallel to the whole birther movement.

The birther movement aside (which was utterly ridiculous), you have to admit Beck has been proven true time and again.
The real question that noone on the left has been asking is just what is the vetting process for these so called czars? Is it political payback positions? Does Obama agree with their stances as radical and outside the norms though they may be?

I like to deal with facts and not payback. If Beck was spreading lies I would be 100% with you in my disdain for him as well as hoping those that he slurred would sue the pants off of Beck. But again, the allegations are true and one has to wonder just why are these people being chosen for such important and visible federal positions.

Yeah, what Jill said. Be the bigger person, two wrongs don't make a right, etc.

Most condemning of all is the fact that he is trying to cover this story up, through suppressing the constitution of the USA, by appealing to an international body.

Well, some people will believe anything, won't they? Especially if the rumor is about a Conservative. Look what they have done (and are still doing) to Sarah Palin.

It speaks volumes about you, however, that you would spread such a damnable lie. But that is what leftists do. I hope you can sleep at night.

Glenn Beck uses no such "tactics". These are the ways of the leftists, like what they have done to Palin and others.

What "truths" about Beck "condemn" him? He is an alcoholic (as are many people) who got help. He doens't hide that fact. He was also an addict, which he doesn't hide. He got help and turned his life around. I have heard his story.

You, by making such statements, are no better than the OP.

First of all I am not a liberal, nor am I conservative. I am libertarian if anything. This thread isn't partisan. Its to discuss whether, or probably not, Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990. This isn't a liberal or conservative issue, but an issue of justice.

I have seen no proof that Glenn Beck didn't rape and murder a girl in 1990. Why doesn't he present proof? Somebody mentioned he used to be a drug addict, so perhaps he committed the rape/murder during a 1 week meth binge and doesn't remember. If this is what happened, not saying it is, than its still no excuse for this terrible crime.

Even without proof of his innocence I still don't think he did this terrible act, I just heard someone say it.

Oh yeah -- I totally believe you don't have an axe to grind with Beck. You are the perfect non partisan -- just like beck himself
