It was extremely negative. Where were you last year this time?
McCain and Palin were attacking ACORN with full fury last year. Not a day went by without them parroting the "massive voter registration fraud" song. FBI even looked into it, but found nothing. And yes, it was in every media outlet since it was indeed a campaign year and everything was on TV. So, Beck exaggerates the news about him 'exposing' ACORN. In fact he had absolutely nothing to do with it.
But there are also little known facts which have been omitted by Beck and Mccain, such as the fact that McCain attended ACORN rallys himself in 2006.
Yeah I remember this last year when Republicans were accusing ACORN of registering a bunch of imaginary voters. The Republicans were saying that ACORN was trying to skew the election Obama's way. Somebody even said that ACORN registered Mickey Mouse to vote.
Liberals hang on sound bites fed to them by their chosen media outlets. If they actually watched Glenn Beck, they'd understand why people laugh at them for making much ado about nothing.
Beck is an entertainer. To understand him, you have to have the full context, not spoon-fed bites that serve only to please the ideological ear.
I've watched Beck for extended times - numerous episodes. I still laugh at him and the absurd conclusions he draws and pushes on a predominantly undereducated audience looking to have their emotions of fear and insecurity justified.
Actually, it's in the sound-bites that he sounds almost credible. It's in the larger context that you realize the absurdity of his assertions.
Actually he has spoken against commentators on both sides but hadn't mentioned any by name. But viewers can be sure he would include Olbermann in that group. Still you can't say he's a RINO.
Thanks for the thumbs up by the way. My last post was totally right on, wasn't it?
BUT HE CAN MENTION "BECK" BY NAME?? HE CAN MENTION LIMBAUGH BY NAME??? HANNITY BY NAME??
Does Glenn Beck call out O'reilly and Hannity? They are Republicans. Beck claims he isn't a Republican and disagrees with Republicans. Why are you holding Glen Beck to a different standard. This is a double standard
Why should he call them out?? They agree with each other!! And when they do Oreilly's show together they debate the stuff they may not agree on! Does Olbermann ever have a debate? NO! Just his silly monologue!!
[quote=Frodo2008;10893883]Well definitely employees working anywhere doing stuff like this should be fired but I don't know if this type of thing is organization-wide with ACORN.[/quote]
But have you even bothered to find out?? The info is there!
