Glenn is relentlessly mocked day in and day out.
He's a fear monger.... He's a clown.... He's all doom and gloom....

Why are people really attacking Glenn?

Because one quick glance at the headlines and it seems news outlets are warning Americans about the very same things Progressives have mocked Glenn over and over, for sounding the alarm on.

CNBC: "Killer Combo of High Gas, Food Prices at Key Tipping Point"...

Washpo/Bloomberg: "The dollar, less almighty: Big investors see possible long-term currency weakness"...

Politico: "Poll suggests deep economic pessimism"...


Gee whiz Wally, looks like Beav was right all along.
Gee guys, why all the fear mongering?
Or could it be that Glenn was right...

The fear mongering is him saying a civil war is coming or suggesting you keep a years supply of food.

as for the financial predictions, almost everyone is saying that. He did nothing our of the ordinary with that one. The dollar has been weak for years.
$5 gas was predicted a while back so...

The guy has been right about the direction this nation is headed.

Don't put all your Easter eggs in one basket, now!

Beck is not the only one expecting civil uprising. I read other 'respected' blogs pointing out the same things Beck does and NO... they are not Beck acolytes, more associated with mainstream libertarianism and conservative commmentary.

Gas prices started getting out of had a few years ago when some leader, I'm sure most have forgotten who that might have been, used his influence to induce more oil production, resulting in a drop in gas prices. That's not happening this year. It is Obama's intent for gas prices to get high enough to cause a demand for electric. Once we're all electric and the government controls the grid... well, it gets to be a long way to Tipperary, or the consolidated voting precincts.

People talk about everything and anything on the net and just discussing a topic with facts on the net doesn't make you the originator of the facts; so I really doubt Beck stold anything. He has his own research people for sure.

That aside, I consider Beck a monkey as I do Rove, Obama and Rev. Wright.
You're still on that Rev. Wright nonsense? Give it up...seriously.

Anyway, i don't know what all this Beck nonsense is about. Who actually pays attention to what he says?

In the first place, he has never once said a civil war was coming. He said that it was a possibility, and of course, it is always a possibility and always has been. Please tell the truth when you post and then you might be credible.
