Default Ron Paul vs. Glenn Beck (1 hour cage match)

Should be an interesting show today... Glenn Beck has been very critical of Paul, calling him everything from a kook and even insinuating that his supporters are terrorists. A full hour on Glenn Beck has the potential to either give the campaign a shot in the arm (Hu

Here's the build up to this show for anyone interested in the history of this confrontation.

Glenn Beck: Ron Paul is Crazy



Glenn Beck: Ron Paul Supporters - Terrorists?



Ron Paul Slams Glenn Beck "On occasion he's a demagogue..."



Glenn Beck Calls Out Ron Paul - Challenges him to an hour on the show



Glenn Beck Announces Paul has Accepted the Challenge




Should make for an interesting hour...

CNN had a very powder puff interview of Ron Paul this morning.
Basically just spoon fed him questions and pretty much let him
have his say without questioning his answers.

If Paul can have a good showing in the early primaries it will really get fun to watch.

From what little I've seen of Beck, he's a moron.

If you mean the way Obama gets questioned (or lack there of) then yes.

Dont think you will see blood in the streets, or during the interview.

Glenn will most likely treat him well unless Paul goes after him. I think Beck was pissed that Ron Paul wouldnt come on his show dispite many requests, thats when he started bashing him a bit. And I know there is a tendency to lump all conservatives together, but Beck bashes greedy corperations, and the Republican party more than any other conservative talk show hosts. Beck has many Libertarian leanings, but wonders (as I do I ) about the practicel application of some of the ideas...

Glenn Beck is great. Friday mornings during the football season, he plays moron trivia. He picks one game that weekend and calls convenience store clerks from both of the cities and asks them simple questions. The answers are often hilarious, which is the reason it's called moron trivia. It's kind of like the radio version of Jaywalking with Jay Leno. I'll be interested to see how the interview goes between Beck and the "man of the people"...

I would have b!tch slap him then asked him to prove to me he wasn't a racist!

Never been on my radar (or television) since.

To each his own. When the moderate muslims let their collective voices be known that in fact, they abhor terrorism and will help in anyway to curb the violence and wipe out terrorism all together, well, no one will be asking questions of them similar to what Beck asked. Legally assimilate into society, have the guts to call terrorism and terrorists what they are, murderers, and they won't have any problems here I'm sure. Simple solution...dman

He was making a point, not being literal.

That's exactly what the guy did!

Litteral or not, he had no right to ask that type of question. The guy was put off, but kept his composure and stated his views as you mentioned above.

I doubt that you happened to tune in, and happened to hear the most controversial thing he has said in the past two years....

If you were that unlikely I feel bad because he is a hell of a lot more honest than most in the media.

It's taken about 5 minutes for Dr. Paul to win over Glenn Beck.

Ron Paul is the real deal, completely genuine.

Glenn Beck honest? HA! I listened one day to his right wing talking points
on global warming one day and found myself shouting at the TV "NO IT
ISN'T! FALSE! LIAR! BULL****!" Finally changed the channel in disgust.

I'm sitting in my hotel room in San Diego clapping and cheering the TV.

I hope millions are watching this, I wish I wish I wish.

He does believe that global warming is not a new faith to embrace -- so in that way he is honest...

Disagree all you want with his stance.
