Oh, you hadn’t heard? A teabagger secessionist crazy lady named Debra Medina, with no political experience or contacts or money or whatever else “makes people good at national politics,” suddenly has emerged as a contender in the Texas GOP primary for governor, along with current Gov. Hair-Fucker and the lady Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison. But now Glenn Beck (!) has perhaps ruined her chances by outing her as a 9/11 truther — the one conspiracy theory about government tyranny that they don’t believe, because 9/11 let us go kill tons of muslins in ~Africa for fun.
Beck, a leading personality for conservatives, asked her point blank if she believed such a theory.
“I don’t have all the evidence there, Glenn,” Medina replied. “So I’m not in a place – I have not been out publicly questioning that. I think some very good questions have been raised in that regard. There’s some very good arguments and I think the American people have not seen all the evidence there so I’ve not taken a position there.”
He then asked if she would disavow people on her campaign team that held such a theory.
“I’m certainly not into mind control or thought policing people,” Medina said. “I don’t see us having a team of radical individuals, if you will.”
When she signed off the program, Beck let out a long Oooh.
“I think I can write her off the list,” he said. “Let me take another look at Kay Bailey Hutchison, if I have to. Rick, I think you I could French kiss right now.”
Of Medina giving some countenance to such a conspiracy theory, Beck said, “Wow, the fastest way back to four percent.”
See! You’re not supposed to like this conspiracy theory, or even give it countenance. The Democrats trying to be Mao & the Holocaust combined, however, is better.

I hate it when I have the same conspiracy theories as right wing nut cases. I am a left wing nut case, goddammit.
It was the Joooz!
The alleged Holocaust. Try to maintain some journalistic integrity Jim.
“Rick, I think you I could French kiss right now.”
That’s kinda gay isn’t it?
[re=511499]Crank Tango[/re]: Perhaps, but more importantly, it’s UNPATRIOTIC!
Beautiful — it’s like watching a pet psychic and a homeopathist battle it out over which one is the real whackjob.
Why is there a giant metal dildo on his desk? Is he conducting experiments on the melting point of steel by furiously shoving it up his bunghole, for friction?
if she’s not into mind-control or the policing of thoughts, there’s clearly no place for her in the gop. what was she thinking of?
Well, well, well, if it isn’t my old middle-aged-secessionist-lady-friend with the bargain basement snowbilly blazer!
Don’t let mean ol’ Beck get to ya, Debster! Remember, you can’t keep fuckin’ that chicken without laying an egg from now and then!
BOCK-BOCK, BABY! BOCK-FUCKING-BOCK!
Obviously, only a lunatic would think 9/11 was an inside job. However, reason tells us that the president’s alleged parents hid his really being born in Africa, and the overwhelming consensus of the scientific community on our effects on the climate is a underpants gnome hoax designed to profit somehow.
[re=511499]Crank Tango[/re]: It’s bad English, also.
[re=511499]Crank Tango[/re]: Not as gay as French manicuring him, which Glenn also “thinks he I could right now” to Rick.
HEY! That just reminded me of something!
Damn, that was a fine thread.
It’s the dark grey pot calling the kettle black.
Glen Beck denouncing conspiracy theories is like Kraft denouncing cheese. It’s your staple Glenn.
[re=511513]JMP[/re]:
Fear=Profit
Works for them. Why not us
Okay, so she believes a bunch of insane things. Does that really make her crazy?
[re=511491]gurukalehuru[/re]: You’re not really a nut case unless you switch back and forth between the right-wing conspiracy theories and the left-wing conspiracy theories; sometimes as often as weekly.
What you are is just plain gullible.
Is it too late say Santa Anna was right, peel change Nate Silver’s site to fiveohfour, and send the keys to the Alamo to Felipe Calderón?
Yes, we should look into the “very good questions [that] have been raised in that regard”, maybe by doing something like setting up a bipartisan commission with dozens of staff and millions in budget, culminating in a detailed report of hundreds of pages. Yeah, that would answer all the questions.
[re=511504]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Something wrong with pet psychics? NOW you tell me, I just spent a bundle on my six cats getting in touch with their inner self.
[re=511515]Buttery1000[/re]: I guess he was flustered, what with the stirring in his britches.
[re=511516]Extemporanus[/re]: what about french braiding his hair?
Glenn Beck has no time for these inane 9/11 conspiracy theories. Not when there’s communists hiding in the NYC architecture, just waiting to strike. Don’t let your guard down! Buy gold now, before the price falls!
Now, if Deb had just responded “Yes, I believe that there is ample evidence that the Clinton Administration new an attack would occur during the first year of the Bush Administration and did nothing to stop it,” Beck would have creamed himself.
God damn you Wonkette for making me listen to that all the way through just to hear Glenn talk about French-kissing Gov Gayhair.
[re=511546]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: KNEW, you fucktard. Knot “new”. Gawd, your dum.
For fucks sake– any reasonable person SHOULD HAVE serious questions about 9/11. This is fucking disgusting.
God damn, but he’s a dick. Listening to his protestations about “truthers” made me think the gov’t was involved in 911 all along.
Can someone please fly a plane into Glenn Beck?
[re=511538]Elm Hugger[/re]: Oh of course I didn’t mean that. A bundle, huh? Well if your cats need their auras cleansed (and my spirit guide tells me they do) gimme a call.
[re=511584]Way Cool Larry[/re]: No. No, they shouldn’t. It’s about as straightforward an event as the Haiti earthquake.
At least birthers require only the collusion of high-ranking Republicans in Hawaii, and Obama’s amazingly prescient parents/grandparents. Truthers need EVERYONE to be in on it.
[re=511603]Lazy Media[/re]: You are aware that the Haiti earthquake was caused by Cuban nuclear testing, are you not?
How dareth the Saracen Medina to claim the Holy Territory of Lord Beck himself? He smiteth her sorely and dismisseth her from the realm, with only a ballad from the Lady Noonington to sooth his ruffled soul.
French kiss a closeted gay conservative? That’s nothing. He asked Ron Paul to squeeze his kidneys. But since his asshole surgery gone terribly wrong, all he can do is flirt.
hahahahaha, “could”.
[re=511625]liquiddaddy[/re]: oh I’m sure before long he’ll be beating off the teabaggers with both hands.
I have some questions:
1) Does the support of the rEVOLution contingent help her here? I thought the Paulfield v Beckoy feud was pretty bitter as they can’t agree on who got to wackistan first.
2) Will this endear her further to said Paulinites? The good doctor hisself has endorsed her and is behind her surge in the polls. Maybe she should start tying 9/11 to the Fed?
3) Do either Beck or Paul’s target demographic understand that all three of the candidates are equally loopy and Tejas will likely be fucked (more so than usual) no matter what?
Heh. Sorry. Thought I could sneak that last one by you guys.
It is possible to take cult of the personality too far. Such as, practicing it AT ALL.
[re=511541]Crank Tango[/re]: Touché, vous homo, touché.
[re=511491]gurukalehuru[/re]: What bothers me is the people (like me) who say, so why the fuck did bush and condi ignore that damn memo anyway? Can we get some investigation into that. You know like one of those oh so republican favorite special prosecutors or something? Jesus. Eight bloody years without anyone giving any damn care about them knowing ahead of time? What was I saying? oh yeah, we get lumped in with the truthers. I can’t give the bush cabal that much credit for planning it from scratch, for one thing they aren’t sneaky enough to think of box cutters. I mean, how stupid is that? On the other hand. Incompetence == guilt in a case like this. Damn Fucking Straight Up Guilt.
[re=511690]Darkness[/re]: exactly. I mean since they never managed to do anything successfully, they wouldn’t have had a snowball’s chance in hell of pulling off a conspiracy like that. but fumble a ball on their own five yard line and let the other team score cuz it might give them a good draft pick next season…
jesus why did I come up with that labored football metaphor.
[re=511684]Extemporanus[/re]: LOL and the french term of art for homo is pédé, as in pédéraste. just in case becky gets francogay again any time soon.
Nothing brings me pleasure than to see all of these wingut repugs eat each other alive.
Now Kay is throwing the 9/11 card and Medina hates the families of loved ones who died in 9/11. Good Hair is piling on, Medina hates the troops. My Paultard neighbor now hates republicans …again. And Palin is still a fucking retard. Also.
Tard strong. (Thanks, Colbert.)
Glenn Beck is an extremely white white person.
[re=511690]Darkness[/re]: The reason Bush and Condi did nothing? 1) Scary intel arrives regularly with nothing then happening and 2) the opposition was still shrieking “Stolen election!”. If the Bushies would’ve started detaining funny furriners in the US and bombing the fuck out of Afghanistan the shit would’ve hit the fan, especially (and perversely) if they’d actually disrupted the plot as then it would get spun as Cowboy Bush and unilateralist militant americans disrupting world peace and trampling civil liberties, etc. over an implausible rumor about some nice middle-class arab boys flying hijacked airliners into skyscrapers, who ever heard of such a thing, I mean really…
[re=511763]plowman[/re]: [re=511763]plowman[/re]: Wow. I haven’t seen revisionist history done quite so well since that movie “The Final Countdown” where an aircraft carrier goes through a time vortex and ends up in 1941 just before the Japanese attack and…
Oh fuck it. Your explanation is a load of horse hockey.
I almost clicked on that video, but caught myself in time. I cant stand to hear or look at Beck. Next time please put a warning or alarm with his stuff. I’d rather just read the wonketters’ comments anyway.
[re=511737]donner_froh[/re]: Not so very – have you seen this pick of him with his brother?

None of this happened on my planet, my country, in my language, so it really isn’t news.
Ok, 9-11 Truthers are out for the same guy who thinks Che Guevara and Woodrow Wilson are soulmates?
[re=511670]rottenart[/re]: Yuh, much less that Governor Crazy Hair is campaigning for Governor Crazy Hair against her own kind, after a $100K gig for winking at the Medina contingent for an hour. http://bit.ly/bIodNg
[re=511780]smitallica[/re]: Ok, try this one on for size: Dick Cheney, in conjucntion with the military-industrial complex, manipulated Bush into paying the Jews to implant mind control devices into nice middle-class arab boys who then flew airliners into skyscrapers.
[re=511780]smitallica[/re]: And which part of my insightful explanation is so revisionist? That so much information about threats crosses a President’s desk that it’s hard to decide which is credible (especially if you are retarded) or that there was a lot of screeching about the validity of the ’00 election, much like today’s equally idiotic caterwauling by the Birthers?
[re=511513]JMP[/re]: I just assumed Beck was a 9/11 Truther. Can’t believe he’s not.
