        Perhaps Beck's history of drug and alcohol dependence has left him angry and bitter. Why is it that some of the most vitriolic haters on the right come to the table with so much baggage of their own?

      "This President has exposed himself as a guy, over and over again, who has a deep hatred for white people..."

      "You can learn something from somebody, just off the cuff."

      "I'm not saying that he doesn't like white people."

      Glenn Beck's lack of intellect and personal antipathy for President Obama should excuse him from further duties in broadcasting. Good thing FOX doesn't mind hiring substandard talking heads.

      Glenn Beck has clearly exposed himself as having deep-seated problems with people of color because he keeps saying that they all have a problem with whites/white culture and any organizations that support people of color are Marxist/Socialist/Fascist or radical. He belongs to a church that teaches that when Black members in good standing go to heaven, they turn white and that baldness is a sign of sin. (I was told this to my face at the Temple in St. George, Utah.) He is a true demagogue, appealing to the lowest common denominator to put forth his agenda. The problem is, unlike previous demagogues, he is uneducated and uniformed, and his solutions are neither forthcoming or really workable. He loves to point out what is wrong but he isn't doing anything to make things right. By accusing Obama of racial hatred, he seeks to make hating Obama justifiable.

      Hey Glenn,

      Where is your proof and or evidence that he doesn't like white people? I mean, it's just pure BS, since let's see, oh, his Mom is white. His grandparents are white. Many of his relatives are, let me see if I can get this straight, WHITE.

      The bigger question is Glenn, why are you so scared of a black man being President?

          Where is the evidence that Obama hates white people? On the other hand, Glen Beck's obsession with rase leads me to believe it is Beck who has deep-seated hatred for black people. Maybe Beck's drug and alcohol dependence has left him a deeply bitter man.

        I get really freaking angry the more I think about it. Obama was right to say the officer acted stupidly and he said it without regard to race. The false arrest is the only crime in the officer's police report, which is why the charges were dropped. Beck's willingness to twist this into some kind of white hatred on the President's part is beyond the pale.

            Just stay away from Beck if you see him at a movie theatre. He says he now packs a gun when he goes to the movies. Now, why would Beck carry a concealed weapon to a movie theatre...unless he chooses to go to the movies in a war zone or in a high crime area? Gee, that sounds like something any normal person would do... Hey, Beck, do you carry a gun when you go to Starbucks? How about restaurants?

      Is it not racist as hell to accuse Obama of hating white people? Hell, he was raised by white people. He has credited his mother for him being who he is today. Why hire Axlerod or Emanuel if he hated white people? He won't jump on the birther bandwagon but he sure will jump on the Obama is a racist. Beck is essentially saying the same thing about Obama as Kanye West said about Bush. Remeber all of the outrage that sparked on the right? What a friggin joke cable news is.

          I don't have any problem with reformed drunken pot heads, but I do have a problem with the ones who go around preaching about morality and the absolute solutions to life that only they are privy too. I am a reformed drunken pot head and my recovery has lead me to the conclusion that I know next to (if not completely) nothing about almost everything. It is this humility that has actually allowed me to accept my place in the world instead of being extremely angry at it for not giving me the riches I so richly deserved.
          Apparently because I thought that since I was born and really, really wanted it bad, it should just come to me.
          I think some white people have taken it a step futrther and feel that being white should mean automatic acceptance into the RICH, white crowd as explained to them in all of the advertisements and Teevee shows and any minority who "takes their chance away" by being rich or successful themselves is somehow extraordinarily unfair and an affront to their (white) Jesus? But perhaps I psycho-analze them too well?

      Glenn Beck, was this an intentinal act of ignorance on your part, or clearly did you feel your personal observation was a necessity? I am sure you have better issues to debate rather than pointing fingers without factual statistics. Why not discuss other emergent issues conserning the larger aspects of our Democratic Politiions. As I recall while listening to your opinion, you were dicussing a major issue ("SO YOU THOUGHT"), and failed based on the subject its self; because, you had no facts, just "hear say", an assumption. You stated " these were words I have heard by others". you were defaming yourself amongest others, Glenn Beck Fox News. SHAME on you, do your home work first before you speak.

          Glenn Beck doesn't have black friends because he's afraid:

          Beck: I don't have a lot of African-American friends, and I think part of it is because I'm afraid that I would be in an open conversation, and I would say something that somebody would take wrong, and then it would be a nightmare.

            Then why does Beck pretend to know so much about black people? Maybe it's because he's just a delusional, bitter drunk whose fear of black people has predictably evolved into hatred. Normal people don't behave the way or say the things Beck does. There is something very disturbing about Beck in my observation.

            BTW, since you said taking a gun to the movie theatre recently made you feel secure, Glen, are you going to take a gun to your kids' school when you go to events there? Assuming your kids go to school with black children (or is that a false assumption?), you know there will be black people there. How about the grocery store? Armed...?

      The shrink was hardly unbiased as he rattled off a bunch of right wing talking points.

      I hope people are making note of this. Years from now, if and when we have another Republican President, I'm sure that these professional liars will once again wring their hands and proclaim that the "hatred" coming from the Left toward THEIR beloved president is UNPRECEDENTED in the history of mankind.

      These numbskulls are so predictable.

      It must be trippy to be racist against half of yourself.

        I can relate. The seditious looniness coming from the white right, so much of it broadcast by guys from my ethnic group (at least Limbaugh and Beck aren't Irish names), has me so scared I can't go to sleep, for fear I'll attack myself as soon as I close my eyes.

      wow we are at a point where these conservative whack jobs are now publicly announcing to the world how racist they are. first buchanan a week ago, now beck. can't wait for o'reilly and limbaugh to announce it as well. not like we didn't already know, but they used to at least pretend that the true reason they hate obama wasn't because he is black.

      As long as Fox News talks about the black President, they are allowed to say anything, without ANY accountability. It doesn't matter how stupid or NONE SENSICAL it is.
      Fox News is out of control, irresponsible and DANGEROUS. Fox News should not be on the air INCITING AND PROMOTING HATRED for the President. Fox News is nothing more than a LYNCH MOB..

      FOXNEWS SHOULD BE BOYCOTTED!!!!

        I find it beyond the pale that our airwaves are allowed to broadcast this kind of invective, inspiring hatred and anger towards the freakin PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. I mean seriously, how much do you have to hate your fellow American and your country to actually listen to this crap. When JFK was shot, there was the same class of citizens who actually applauded his assasination, but they were quickly shouted down and were not even remotely acknowledged in any major news story or major newspaper of the time. How is it that only 40 years later we allow our "news" organizations to actually broadcast this kind of votriolic hatred for our Commander In Chief (especially after all the crying they did a year ago when it was directed to their "savior" Bush). The First Amendment shall never be trumped, but giving a HUMUNGOUS megaphone to an absolute moron spouting this kind of IGNORANCE and racial hatred is beyond believable!

        You're not boycotting FOX news?

        You're right, FOX news (and rightwing talk radio) are lynch mobs creating hatred from lies.

        If you misinform enough, then one misinformation (Obama believes what Jeremiah Wright said about those particular things) adds onto the next misinformation (he is good buddies with a member of a terrorist organization), (he was educated in a madrasa and is thus a fundamentalist Muslim), and more misinformation (Obama said the Police are racists), you end up with the ridiculous possibility that Obama is racist.

        It's like saying, well 1 is sort of like 1.2 and 2 is sort of like 2.4, so 1 + 2 = 4 cause that's sort of like 3.6 which is sort of like 3.

      This guy is just whacko. A man whose beloved mother was white, and who was raised by his beloved white grandparents has a deep seated hatred for whites.

      Whatever, dude.

      When is the lunatic right ever going to accept the fact that Barack Obama is President by the majority of the people?

      So when Kanye West or Danny Glover call the President a racist it's ok, but when GB does it it's not ok?

        When Beck with the backing of his company says something irresponsible that doesn't have anything factual behind it, just his lunacy, then yes it is wrong. When West or Glover say it about a president that showed blatant indifference to minorities, or say the population of New Orleans, I'll pause first and think before I say they were not 100% right in their accusation.

      What bothers me about the arguments in this video is that there is a profound difference between having pride in your heritage/race/ethnicity and hating members of another heritage/race/ethnicity.
