The only difference between this site and MM is that this site (therightscoop) claims that Beck wasn't being offensive and doesn't understand why Beck apologized.
Beck actually harassed another radio host on the air when the man and his wife lost their baby. I dont think people like that ever understand why they have to apologize. Since he called this Malia thing "a mistake," I think that proves he doesnt get it, and after all this time I dont suppose he ever will.
Second, you really have no idea what was said nor how it was said.
Third, you look foolish for trying to make this an issue about Glenn "smearing" Obama's daughter which he is not. Not even close
4th, I bet you are the same person who believes that since Palin brought her kids on stage, and talks about her kids, that her family was fair game. Now here you are saying that even if Glenn made some joke about Obama's daughter, that it is something to be outraged about.
I bet you didnt have a problem with Letterman joking about rape/sex of Palin's daughter and all the other crap weve heard about Palin and her family.
Why don't you actually read the article in OP, and listen to the recording? He clearly mocks and makes fun of the education level of Malia... and goes on mocking her for something like 4 minutes straight.
If this was someone talking this way about a Palin child, you'd be calling for their head.
(it's HOLE not whole, btw)
Oh.....let me think. They have...much worse...where was your outrage then?
Most of us called out the arseholes that put Palin's kids down, what's your point?
That's the difference I see here. If a lefty doesn't something stupid we call 'em out. If a righty does something stupid then the loyalists point fingers back at the lefties. The posts in this thread prove that.
I find it fascinating....and strangely sad....that those who claim to believe in "family values" are able to twist their mind...and their souls....to a place where they can actually excuse the mocking of children just because they dislike the child's parents. Truly people, instead of the knee jerk reaction of coming up with an excuse for such ugly behavior, take a moment, sit back, and search your heart. Do you really want to turn yourself into people who admire those who are cruel to children? Is this where your politics are leading you? Is this how you truly believe in your heart or have you, a little bit at a time, allowed your dislike of Obama to cloud your thinking until you now accept things that 5 years ago you would never have accepted? Understand, I'm certainly not trying to tell you to love Obama or like his politics. You may have well thought out reasons for your political beliefs. But does it follow that you must then admire the mocking of children? That you must hate the politician's family? That you can excuse someone who makes their living by such shabby, nasty behavior? Please people, think.
I can't believe you people who read that crap called Media Matters. LMAO! That article is a plain out LIE! I saw the complete show yesterday and Beck never said that stuff.... What losers you guys are!
It was on his radio show.... did you sit and watch your radio?
