Beck Details E-Mail Exchange With Sarah Palin Over AZ Shooting

Considering the left‘s attempt to blame this weekend’s Arizona shooting on Sarah Palin’s rhetoric, Glenn Beck contacted her on Sunday night via e-mail to see how she was doing. On his radio show Monday morning, Beck read what he wrote to her and then read her partial response:

“She wrote back, in part:  I hate violence.  I hate war.  Our children will not have peace if politicos just capitalize on this to succeed in portraying anyone as inciting terror and violence.  Thanks for all you do to send the message of truth and love and God as the answer.  Sarah.”

They both agree: violence is not the answer.

    Beck “ I hate violence”

    BECK: Hang on, let me just tell you what I’m thinking. I’m thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I’m wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it. No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out — is this wrong? I stopped wearing my What Would Jesus — band — Do, and I’ve lost all sense of right and wrong now. I used to be able to say, “Yeah, I’d kill Michael Moore,” and then I’d see the little band: What Would Jesus Do? And then I’d realize, “Oh, you wouldn’t kill Michael Moore. Or at least you wouldn’t choke him to death.” And you know, well, I’m not sure.

      Hey “slowsilver”; sounds like you made this up, or twisted a satire (which Glen is widely known for) into a Left Wing propagandized confession of hate. The Left is the real enemy in the U.S. No real conservative would EVER apologize to any Commie slime bag. The Left are the ones spreading hate and fear. Notice how the whack job who murdered our citizens had ZERO record of any conservative literature??? BUT, the monster had plenty of LEFT WING poison lying around. We’ll know more when (if) they release his Internet history. I’ll bet that scum lived off of Commie Rhetoric spewed by Oberman….

    Did anyone on the left feel that Joe Manchin shooting the cap & trade bill may have caused this? I don’t think it did, but if they want to blame Palin, shouldn’t they be concerned about that too. What about Obama telling Hispanics that we have to “punish” our enemies? This is all just another example of the liberals not letting a crisis go to waste. Even this horrible incident, they will even use this. What a sick cult.

    Political Violence ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS comes from the Left. It is part of every one of their strategies.

    Progressivism/Socialism/Communism/Fascism all must foster violence as it is required for them to execute their enslavement of the public.

    There is not now, nor has there every been, anything right-wing / conservative / constitutionalists or tea party about every act of political violence perpetrated in the past 1/2 century.

    I’ve helped my friend send out political e-mails and faxes to Congress over the past few years including many of the designs on his site (click on my name for the link). No doubt the wannabe tyrant congressman that is calling for further free speech restrictions in the name of safety would perceive these designs as threatening.

    Typical Liberal Hypocrisy that the left thrives on. You have people like Sharptongue and Jerimiah Wright who can say anything they want, and it is Free speech, but let Beck or Limbaugh say anything, and it is labled hate speech.

    For an example, when the Ft Hood Shootings occured, the left scrambled, and went out of thier way to say it wasn’t a Muslim thing, and it certainly was not Islamic terror (even though he was Screaming Allahu Ackbar with every shot). They came to his defense and said don’t rush to Judgement. But here you have one of their own go off the reservation, and now all the Libretards are acting like Baboons in a mango tree trying to villify, and place blame on everyone but where the blame belongs. All of this before the echo of the last shot fades….

    This starts from the Top down

It seems to be ok for the lefties to promote violence towards women, in general, and people they don’t agree with, then say the right promotes violence. So ,in essence, they won’t care what Glenn Beck or Sarah Palin say or do. The accusations will be there regardless.

    She hates war? From all I’ve heard her say she seems to be itching to bomb Iran? No? Is she ready to pull out of Iraq or Afhganistan? Not according to what I’ve heard her say. It’s certainly over the top to blame Palin for this shooting or any shooting which she does not participate in but it is equally dangerous and wrong to invade other sovereign nations which America may not agree with under false pretense or any pretense! Especially in the name of Morality considering the Morality within America’s America today! I often mention the weekend in Chicago last summer in which 21 people were Murdered. America really has no ground to stand on in regards to Morality because we have become rotten to the core? No? Disagree?

      I think TECHENGINEER11 and WhiteTeaParty need to do better research. And for WhiteTeaParty…

      Relax everyone. “WhiteTeaParty” is not so unlike the accused in this recent shooting. Just reading the posts left by “WhiteTeaParty” you can see the similarities. My analysis would conclude that “WhiteTeaParty” is another one of these nut-jobs hanging on the edge.

      “WhiteTeaParty” NEVER has ANY facts and seems to follow the same MO of a follower of a cult whose leader is way off bubble.

      No I have compiled a list of dates and times where “WhiteTeaParty” has left comments and also the content of those comments. Based on the time of the comments here is what I might deduce.

      Age: Adolescent to 27.

      Education: Struggling or struggled through school to make low grades and was not considered popular by any means. Not athletic and never able to complete anything he/she starts. Afraid of FAILURE so tasks are left unfinished so he/she figures if task unfinished you can’t say that I failed.

      Employment: Not likely but if by chance holds a very menial low level job with no satisfaction and no chance for accomplished success or growth. Dead end job.

      Temperament: Quick to anger especially if you don‘t agree with and lets those that don’t agree eat at him/her for long periods of time.

      Relationship: Not a chance on this one. Very lonely.

      Home: Either lives in basement of parents house or a very low rent apartment with a same sex roommate. Seldom baths and nearly never does laundry. Just recycles cloths from the floor. Spends endless hours doing nothing productive at the computer or game console and usually is wearing only dirty socks, soiled underwear and a shabby out of date T-shirt. The clothing matches the lack of personal hygiene perfectly.

      So, everyone.. either ignore the mentally challenged buffoon or have some fun with him/her. We all need someone to feel sorry for.

      @ Quicksilver

      Bill Maher should be in a world of hurt over comments uttered about Dick Cheney on his Real Time HBO show. This is the show that Maher fled to after ABC fired him five years ago for sympathizing with the 911 terrorists, capping a long career of anti-American hate speech.

      This time Bill Maher says that Dick Cheney should have been assassinated in the failed bombing attempt last week in Afghanistan. Maher repeated his obscene rhetoric a few times, including this zinger:

      Maher: “I’m just saying if he did die, other people, more people would live. That’s a fact.”

      These comments come from both sides. The real question is can we all support each other as AMERICANS and for once avoid using a tragic moment for some political gain. The victims’ families need our thoughts and prayers, not arguments and where to place blame. It is truly disappointing that the media immediately jumps on the ‘Blame someone’ bandwagon before any investigation of the facts are conclusive.

      The taking of any life in a premeditated fashion is against all the Laws of God and Humanity just because Michael Moore or Bill Mahre call us angry epithets does not give any one the right to silence them by death. God will judge you stronger than he would those two. We must remember that Jesus teaches that those who know wrong and still do wrong are treated harsher when judged than those who are ignorant. It was the reason that Jesus died for us on Calvary many years ago.

      I believe we should pray for those and remember that God created division so that we would know what was good and what was evil. And with out resistance nothing can become stronger.
