Chris Wallace interviews Beck. Good interview. He asks some good questions


YouTube - (1/2) Glenn Beck on Fox News Sunday (8.29.10)


YouTube - (2/2) Glenn Beck on Fox News Sunday (8.29.10)


Good discussion here.


They even talk about Glenn's remark last year when he said he thought Obama was a racist.

Ive said it before, I dont always agree with Glenn, and even he, like many, sometimes have to put their foot in their mouths, but I support him. Overall, he's been on the right track.

I am not a huge Beck fan.

He just did a good thing.

He even admits that he screwed up when he called Obama a racist over that little bit of stuff. He usually admits when he screws up unlike most of the rest of them.

That was a great segment of Fox News Sunday and can be seen by people who have Fox again in about 30 minutes. 6:00 EDT and 5:00 CDT

Wallace asked the same kind of tough questions he would have fired at a liberal and demanded answers.

show from yesterday as well, interesting interview.

With all the folks howling about Beck I decided to watch one of his shows this week. I thought his rally was awesome and could not believe how many people showed up. God forbid we should all come together and actually support America. Good job Glenn.

Supporting America is something most people can agree on. It's just the WAY some people want to to it that folks take issue with.

Good interview, though I wished they had more time. Madison didnt seem to be a fan of Becks, though he did back track rather quickly from that.

Perhaps, they will meet again to talk.

I wanted to comment about social justice and MLK, but that should have its own thread. I will say this, I admire and respect the work of MLK and the great things he set in motion. But if he was for social justice, I disagree with him strongly on that. But that will not ruin his legacy as far as im concerned nor will it make me think of ill of him. The good he did outweighs any negative feelings I have about social justice

I think it is fine if we all stand outside and wear little hats and nothing else lol. Support is what this country needs and it was just good to see so many on the mall.

Wallace did a fantastic job and seemed completely surprised or stunned by some of Beck's answers.

MLK did some good things, he drove his mission thru the odds and the U.S. wound up with the beginnings of equality.

JFK had a good idea with a mission to the moon. The U.S. pursued and achieved that mission but has gone no further.

It's time for the country to let go of MLK and JFK and pursue new, individual and collective goals. The people who settled this land let go of their roots. They took big chances. Some made it, some perished in the effort. On the way to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, to the moon, to personal achievement.

The country, not the government but the people, needs to let go to move forward to new, personal and group achievements. To honor MLK, JFK. The pioneers and the adventurers.
