Comments on: Glenn Beck: Some Rockefeller Was Some Form of Enemy http://www.fair.org/blog/2009/09/07/glenn-beck-some-rockefeller-was-some-form-of-enemy/ The national media watch group Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:31:47 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: Johnny America http://www.fair.org/blog/2009/09/07/glenn-beck-some-rockefeller-was-some-form-of-enemy/comment-page-1/#comment-58048 Johnny America Mon, 22 Nov 2010 17:29:10 +0000 http://www.fair.org/blog/?p=12769#comment-58048 People need to wake up the fact that Glenn Beck is simply another opinion pushing charlatan who is a product of mormon cult theology that he mixes with parts of Catholicism and his personal core as a dry alcoholic. And for the record, he is a Mormon and not a Christian. The two are not the same as one is a cult and the other is a religion. This makes Glenn Beck one very twisted screwed up moron who sold his soul to the lowest common denominator of personal stupidity. The religion of Islam has more in common with Christianity than the mormon cult. The truth about Beck is that he a dry mormon alcoholic who never got the counseling required for alcoholics. Because he does not possess a single ounce of journalistic integrity, this makes him the perfect abortion poster child for Fox Network. Considering the fact that Beck’s personal views are extreme Marxist Libertarian, his form of patriotism is false and he is a person who has no real substance or depth. Glenn Beck consistently demonstrates all the unstable behaviors of a dry alcoholic which include grandiosity, judgmentalism, intolerance, impulsivity, ADD, indecisiveness and blindness to truth. In short, Beck, Limbaugh, O Reilly, Hannity, Palin, O Donnell, Coulter and others like them frequently pervert truth, history, facts, religion and the US Constitution when they open their big mouths. Beck is simply part of a national league of pseudo-conservative idiots who make big money by selling lies and half truths to impressionable fools that occupy the lowest levels of society. Basically…tea baggers and registered republicans who are condemned to repeat the mistakes of history.

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 17:53:36 +0000 http://www.fair.org/blog/?p=12769#comment-9103 In all the commentary I've read on this, I've noticed few people have pointed out the most damning flaw in Beck's logic: Nelson Rockefeller actually DESTROYED one artwork he had commissioned for the Rockefeller Center precisely BECAUSE it had overt Communist symbolism which the artist refused to remove. I am referring, of course, to Diego Rivera's mural, titled MAN AT THE CROSSROADS, which was originally commissioned for the ground floor in Rockefeller Center. Rivera included portraits of Leon Trotsky and Vladimir Lenin in the work; Rockefeller asked that those two portraits be changed expressly BECAUSE they appeared to cast Communism in a favorable light. Rivera refused, and then when the work was done Rockefeller simply had it draped. Then, a year later, he sent in work crews to smash up the mural and haul away the debris in weelbarrows, utterly destroying the work. Rockefeller commissioned a different artist to paint a mural featuring Abraham Lincoln instead. I find it PROFOUNDLY hard to accept Beck's logic in light of that incident.
