Fair enough, but you are missing my point. Obama in 2008 fills Sports Authority Field. Obama in 2012 has trouble filling Kirkwood Community College. Do you see the difference? Have you ever watched Spinal Tap?
Actually Ohio State is the biggest venue he has visited which he had no problem filling. http://eclectablog.com/2012/05/first-official-obama-rally-of-2012-in-columbus-ohio.html Feel free to scroll down the page and use the panoramic view tool as well. When has any conservative politician drawn as large of a crowd in the 2012 election cycle?
This qualifies as political discourse? Obama is going to receive millions upon millions of votes, and so will Romney. Who cares about a stadium?
is that any different than other presidents? you're projecting you're obviously politically biased, which skews your view paultards and wing nuts
St.John arena (where Obama IS , in those photos), seats less than 20,000 people. Beck drew over 65,000. Obama was FORECED TO CANCEL his scheduled appearance at OSU's FOOTBALL STADIUM because he couldn't COME CLOSEto filling it. As it was, AFTER GIVING AWAY TICKETS, he barely managed to draw 15,000 to St.John arena. OSU was the LARGEST VENUE the pathetic Obama Campaign has gone this year, and it is NO Cowboy Stadium. Way to crush YOUR OWN POSITION.
Im sorry, you still fail to understand the comparison between the two is completely retarded. BECK IS AN ENTERTAINER = Justin Beiber, Michael Jackson et al. Obama is a Politician= Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, John McCain et al NAME ONE CONSERVATIVE THAT HAS PACKED MORE ARENAS IN THE 2012 ELECTION CYCLE.
You keep trying to deflect from the embarassing FACTS. What happened to your DENIAL of Beck outdrawing Obama? FACTS get in the way? Beck is no POP STAR; he is a POLITCAL COMMENTATOR,who is in OBVIOUS OPPOSITION to OBAMA. OBAMA, HIMSELF cannot outdraw Beck, much less any political commentator who supports him. Please, keep kicking while you twist on the rope of reality; it's fun to watch....
Weren't you the one marveling at the size of crowds Obama was gathering just 4 years ago? Well, maybe not you personally, but all the *******s sure did... I know it hurts
If Beck is just an entertainer, why do you *******s hate him with such a passion? Can you name me just one entertainer whom you guys hate more then political commentators on the right? ... waiting... waiting... BINGO! There are none! Your analogy fail, as always.
Yes, Beck is just an entertainer! The man said it himself. He doesnt give a (*)(*)(*)(*) about the political process or the outcome. All he cares about is making money at the expense of his gullible followers. I don't hate anyone. Hate in itself is death.
That's right. Policy and law should be made without emotion and WITH logic. NOT by emotion and reaction.
But of course you (Left) hate him passionately.. Why else would Beck and Rush receive thousands of death treats and even more hate mail? Your favorite entertainer (whatever her name is) publically wished Rush a heart attack, standing next to the Chosen One (who approvingly smiled at that)... Stop pretending... Of course you hate Glen Beck, and rightfully so - he makes left look so... Small...
False. He still didnt draw a crowd of 84,000 as Obama did. Regardless, if you want to admit it or not, the man is (*)(*)(*)(*) entertainer. Hence the fake tears, the made up conspiracy theories. etc. READ HIS OWN WORDS Hmm so is it your assertion that the hate and anger we've seen at Republican rallies are "emotion and reaction" free? Sure do, it was posted before. Sorry, your speaking in generalizations. I don't hate the man. I think he is one hell of a business man, and he has a knack for presenting a package that folks want to see. He is nothing more than a entertainer just as Stephen Colbert and John Stewart.
Are you seriously trying to tell us that Glen Beck, who doesn't even have a television show at this time, who is seen as kind of a wing nut, even people on the right, has so much entertainer's charisma so that he can outdraw the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA by a 15 to 1 ratio. Have you ever watched Glen Beck? A challenge to you: Round up as many people as you care to, ask them to finish the following sequence..... Brad Pitt, Jennifer Anniston, Justin Beiber, Michael Jackson, ______________ Maybe its just me, but I am kind of thinking you may have to run through perhaps 300,000,000 people before someone answers Glen Beck. If anyone does answer Glen Beck, it is probably Glen Beck's mother.
Yes I have, didnt like the message that he was bringing, Im not to much of a fear and lie kinda guy. You are right, he no longer has a TV show. He just opened his own channel! LOL So wait, are you calling him a liar? He said it himself. So who is lying, you or Glenn Beck?
It's a little of scary, all these hyperemotional conservative manchildren screaming about how their hero is so much dreamier than someone else's hero. It's like they use FOX as their version of TigerBeat magazine. We here in the reality-based community -- the liberals -- are a little sickened by the whole display. I mean, we understand on an intellectual level the way conservatives run almost entirely on appearances and emotion, because we see it every day. We just don't get it on a gut level, being we don't think with our guts. In addition, their logic is just dumb. Obama drew 1.8 million at his inaguration. And liberals don't talk about that, because it looks silly to crow about how dreamy your guy is. However, bringing up the 1.8 million is a valid counterpoint when someone declares that 65k proves everyone loves Beck and hates Obama. My, that Beck fellow is amazing, pulling in over 3% of Obama's tally. That proves he really is the cutest guy evah.
huh? "Dreamier"...? The only one saying that is YOU. Have some repressed "needs" do you? All we're saying is that the FACT that a POLITICAL COMMENTATOR, not a POP STAR, can OUTDRAW the SITTING POTUS 15-1, is FRIGGIN' HILARIOUS...that's all. And no amount of Leftninny madeup nonsense can ALTER THAT FACT....
