A New Low ... Glenn Beck Fantasizes About Poisoning Pelosi

Posted by Melissa McEwan, Shakesville at 3:18 PM on August 7, 2009.

These guys will continue until they get some real blood.



Earlier today (watch): http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/141855/a_new_low_..._glenn_beck_fantasizes_about_poisoning_pelosi/


Paraphrase:

Glenn Beck imagines what it would be like to attend a fundraising party at Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's house. Someone sits at his desk with a cardboard cutout of Pelosi's face over theirs; he offers "Pelosi" a glass of wine and barks at her, "Drink it! Drink it! Drink it!" He laughs. "I really just wanted to thank you for having me over here to wine country, though to be invited I thought I had to be a major Democratic donor or a longtime friend of yours, which I'm not. Uh, by the way, I put poison in your—no, I, uh…" He then goes on to make a bunch of tired "limousine liberal" jokes, like, "Hey, is that Sean Penn over there?"

So, yeah. He was obviously real sincere about that whole "discouraging violence" thing.

(Via Media Matters.)

1. Can't someone arrest this insane sicko?
At the very least put him in an insane asylum?

He all but has made threat on members of Congress.

2. If Glenn Beck accidentally fell into a pen of wild boar, I would not help him out.
I would grab popcorn.

3. Right. So when Mike Malloy matches this guy to show him what this feels like
lay off Mike.

Because that's what he's doing and no one else is. No one else is proposing consequences to this sick mofo.

5. That crosses the line.
He should be arrested for threatening or for inciting violence.

These people need to be stopped. This is all going to hell very fast.

10. What is it with these people
always screaming for the blood, guts, torture, murder, and/or eternal damnation of anyone who disagrees with them in any way? Are they that intolerant, that they can't stand the mere existance of anyone who isn't exactly like them?

16. Obama has been president for only six months.
This will only get worse. It is amazing how unhinged and violent they have already become.

School will start soon and I can guarantee at least 6-8 Glenn Beck type kids in each of my class. They will be competing for attention............................all with parents who blame the teacher for picking on their kid......
