‘This Is What Democracy Looks Like’: Beck Reviews the Disturbing List of Egypt’s Current Presidential Candidates

After nearly 1,000 protesters in the country have died, Egyptians are now poised to elect their next president — and it will be the most important election in about 5,000 years as the decision will ultimately shape Egypt and the middle east for years to come. Glenn Beck dissected each of the current four contenders vying for Hosni Mubarak’s former seat.
Beck introduced the first contender, who is a radical Islamist and member of the Muslim Brotherhood. He also happens to hate Israel who will seek to increase the use of Sharia Law in the country.
Contender number “two,” Abdel-Moneim Abolfotoh, is also a radical Islamist, formerly with the Muslim Brotherhood who has openly called Israel “the enemy.” Ironically, he is considered Egypt’s “moderate” candidate and was ousted from the Brotherhood last year after “blaspheming” that Christians should be allowed to run for president in Egypt. He then backpeddaled by saying “anyone” can be nominated for president in Egypt but that it would essentially be ridiculous to think that a non-Muslim could actually hold the position.
Candidates three and four both hail from the former Mubarak regime, so, according to Beck, Egypt can choose to continue martial law, or invoke a new authoritarian regime based upon Islam.

Posted on May 26, 2012 at 6:26pmRight on Clenn! It looks like the Egyptian government has gone from bad to worse. Of course Obama doesn’t care as long as he can grab credit fot helping convert Egypt into this phony :democeacy:. Never mind that it’s becoming a demon government run by the Muslim Brotherhood.

Posted on May 25, 2012 at 1:30pmHey, I noticed that the sets for the Blaze and for Glenn Beck usually have dark color and lighting. I think it would be a good idea to get more lights and make things brighter because people seem to be more attracted when there are brighter colors. Just an idea.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 4:54pmStrange to argue AGAINST freedom. Democracy is the freedom to vote for your govt. Would he rather they have a monarchy? Or an oligarchy?

From THE REPORTER
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The Glenn Beck show (GBTV) has become mundane and boring as of late. Perhaps, once a week there is a 1/2 hr. segment that is really informative. The show lacks the informative nature of his original FOX program.
Granted, it is virtually impossible to be spot-on on every program, however, the show seems to lack much of the important data that used to be on FOX. Doesn‘t Glenn realize that people don’t want to see him eating pie, cake and cupcakes. They do want more “meat and spuds!”
Come on Glenn, you are losing your edge.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 1:06amThis is what our democracy looks like… 90% of American’s votes are counted by computers that can be hacked. This time around it will be even worse with a foreign company with ties to George Soros tallying the votes. The corporate media (this include Glenn Beck) then strategically forces a candidate down our throats while using fake polls to hide the rampant voter fraud.
Watch “Hacking Democracy” on youtube to get a glimpse of this.

Posted on May 23, 2012 at 10:06pmMr. Beck is no longer hiding his fascist agenda.
From his mid February declaration that the pendelum has swung too far in favor of minorities and his call for a new civil rights movement for whites, he began the week supporting the cause of neo nazis who were meeting to initiate a whites only hiring policy in their community.
Last month Mr. Beck stated that voting was a privledge bestowed by the state; that men do not have a natural right to self determination.
Now he opposes elections.
Mr. Beck has always said that this country needs an iron-fisted dictatorship to protect it from internal and external chaos. Here is is promoting his iron-fisted dictatorships for other countries as well.
