Glenn Beck Declares War On The Bushes

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Glenn Beck launched an unprecedented verbal assault on former Barbara Bush in response to the former First Lady's comments regarding Sarah Palin. In the audio segment to the left from Beck's radio show, Beck goes after Barbara Bush based on her looks in response to what he called "insulting" comments. The "really insulting" comments in question came from an interview Bush gave to Larry King. When asked about Sarah Palin, Barbara Bush said she was "beautiful" and that she hopes Palin "stays in Alaska." Some saw that comment as signal that Bush does not believe Palin should run for president.

......


Beck then goes on to call Barbara Bush the "oatmeal box lady." Evidently it is not acceptable for Bush to comment on Palin's looks in a positive way but completely acceptable for Beck to negatively comment on the looks of the former First Lady.

This should get interesting.

3. Bush should send Uncle Dick on Beck.

[eleny]

4. Uh-oh

He really has been enjoying the smell of his own farts, hasn't he?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. "Oatmeal Box Lady"

Nobody from the left disseed her like that.

[eleny]

7. I did - see my reply #6

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

12. I've been calling her Quaker Oats Man and George Washington impersonator for years. Unless you meant

nobody relevant.

[11 Bravo]

43. Hell, I've always called her "that bug-eyed old lush". You all are being kind!

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

47. George Carlin used to call her the Silver Douche. nt

[Chulanowa]

20. 'Cause we're better at insulting scabrous hateful harridans

"Oatmeal box lady" is closer to a compliment than she deserves. Fuck her and her beautiful, empty mind.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

9. I'm conflicted

Sure, Barbara Senior is one of the worst human beings to ever besmirch the planet. And yet, if he keeps going at this, Beck is going to end up getting babs some sympathy points, which will dovetail nicely with Junior's image rehab quest. A pox on Beck and the harpy.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

10. He couldn't even get that right. She's the Quaker Oats Man. nt

[jberryhill]

11. "verbal assault on former Barbara Bush"

Okay, news to me.

Who is she now?

[The Backlash Cometh]

13. Oh, this is going to be good.

:popcorn:

[craigmatic]

14. This is just an easy target for beck. Bush was a failure we all know it. Jeb probably won't run

there's very little down side to this for beck unless H.W. Bush uses his connections to get beck fired from faux.

[no_hypocrisy]

15. Beck's kicking a box of dynamite!

Have a blast, Glennie!

[AndrewP]

16. So...what happens when someone you don't like is snide to someone you don't like?

[eleny]

17. You be happy because one of them is going down

Half a loaf is pretty filling.

[CakeGrrl]

18. Sit back and enjoy?

:evilgrin:

[Mz Pip]

40. Steel cage wrestling match

S. Palin v. B. Bush. Lots of entertainment value in that.

[David Zephyr]

19. ...because he's stalking for Mitt Romney (fellow Mormon) & Beck knows Rove wants Jeb.

This gives Beck a chance to hit at the Bushes "in defense" of Palin, when the real target is Karl Rove and Jeb Bush.

In any event, give Beck credit this one time: he knows how powerful the Bush clan is and how hard it will be to stop Karl's Jeb with the Bush machine behind him.

[Ikonoklast]

32. The first shots fired in a skirmish that foreshadows the coming battle.

I still say there is a coming civil war in the Republican Party that they will not know how to control.

[superduperfarleft]

21. Beck's just pissed that Babs has him beat as most awful person on the planet.

Oh, and



Yes, good, good...

[Cirque du So-What]

22. It's one thing for US to compare Barbara Bush to the Quaker Oats dude

quite another for this megalomaniac with a megaphone to do it. Wanna bet that the BFEE will give Clown Blecch his comeuppance over this?

[leftynyc]

28. I was thinking the same thing

Her husband was the head of the CIA and President - he has people everywhere. Beck may come to regret this.

[Ikonoklast]

33. They'll have to try something different from putting Acid in his pre-show coffee.

No one would notice any difference.

[ellie]

23. Or she is the chick from the one dollar bill

courtesy of Beavis and Butthead. I still laugh about that.

[Mimosa]

24. Bwa ha haaa! He's going to sabotage himself!

Nobody crosses BFEE and succeeds.

[dflprincess]

25. Beck may have just gone too far

The BFEE is not going to let him get away with this.

[jaysunb]

37. My first thought...

You are 100% correct on this. Bar has already sent the first message. The Calvary is on it's way for the Beck/Palin crowd.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

26. they are eating their own - good!

[Supersedeas]

42. are you referring to the "oatmeal box" reference

[DemocratSinceBirth]

27. I Would Add

I would add on the same Larry King show Bush Pere said it's hard to be critical of President Obama because he likes him so much and therefore didn't.

Should be interesting...

[DavidDvorkin]

30. Was this before she said that no one can dislike Bill Clinton?

That should really send Beck over the edge. Again.

[ladywnch]

31. Beck may have just gone too far.

I can see the Bush Crime Clan along with the Carlyle Group now taking aim at Beck..... you don't mess with republican royalty. Whether it be through Murdoch or by direct elimination.....he may just have gone too far attacking Babs.

JMO

[polichick]

44. Yep - he may have jumped the shark with this one. nt

[Vinnie From Indy]

34. Getting into a fight with that mean old witch is probably not a good idea

She has, no doubt, been responsible for many people being disappeared over the decades. Beck is out of his league here.

[Phx_Dem]

35. He better watch out. Barbara Bush could totally kick his ass. n/t

[Permanut]

36. This is working out very well for her...

Or him, or somebody.

[jaysunb]

38. This, along w/ the Sorros/Holocaust thing

will be Becks undoing. Two of the worst entities to piss off.

[GoldMedals4U]

39. Nothing quite like seeing your enemies attack each other, right?

I love it when this happens.

[bulloney]

41. I thought Babs' picture is on the $1 bill.

[Mimosa]

45. NOW Beck's in trouble.

Watch it play out.

[olegramps]

46. Beck could end up a suicide casualty from swallowing his mike with a little help.

[zulchzulu]

48. Drug-addled untreated addicts who are college dropout AM shock jocks tend to say stupid shit

That's all you need to know about Mr. Magic Underpants himself, Glenn Beck.
