“Glenn Beck refuses to endorse J.D. Hayworth”


Over at “The Hill” there’s a column with a video link of an appearance of Glen Beck on the Imus show, pretty good interview with Beck by the way. The part about JD is about 4 minutes in, but Imus and JD are pretty entertaining getting to that point.

The long and short, looks like Beck is not a fan of Johnny Mac, used the term “like to see him go”, but he’s not buying as Imus put it, “…He asked Beck if he’s for “that fat, undisciplined maggot … shock jock?”

Oh my, things aren’t looking good for JD’s run as Birther in Chief, or is he running for the Senate, so confusing.

This is not worthy of you, Steve

Would you take this back to the drawing board and state clearly what point(s) you’re trying to make rather than making an obscure hit-and-run attack on the various players. Thanks

The greatest evil…is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the offices of a thoroughly nasty business concern. -C.S. Lewis

All McCain has left is slammin' the other guy

Freedoms Truth (Diary) Wednesday, May 5th at 10:33PM EST (link)

… and its sad to see his helpers do the slamming.

I cant think of about 300 people running things in DC who are worse than McCain’s opponent …oh, and McCain is one them.

I didn't realize there were that many Democrats in Washington (nt)

OK...I just watched the whole thing and you're making a whole lot of fuss about nothing here

I’m not sure either of them made a serious point during this whole interview…

but where the stuff about Hayworth came in…I didn’t see Beck denounce JD either…and if I were in Beck’s shoes I’d have said something along the same lines…I could give a fart in a windstorm about JD except for the fact that he’s running against John McCain and has a real shot at beating him….I would work to elect JD for dog catcher unless he were running against John McCain and had a real shot at beating him.

McCain is a joke and JD has exposed him for the clown and bafoon he’s always been. His military service being the sole exception John Sydney McCain is a fraud, a liar, an opportunist and a political whore who’d sell his mother’s soul if that’s what it took to win this election.

and you beclown yourself as you shill for him!

JD was a radio talk show host engaging people in intellectual conversation. The left uses that. Must we?

Can you imagine what you all would face from attack ads given your public comments here?

JD is great guy and true blue conservative.

I found this wonderful completion of the JD news clips, pretty good and at it appears JD knows Jack, pretty darn well.

Guess you’re not too concerned about it, but JD and his ilk are the reason Republicans lost the house, you want to support him knock yourself out.

To a low power AM station where he can impress people with his prowess and monosyllabic repartee on the subjects of identity theft, birth certificates and other issues that are important to the listeners of that low power AM station.

Meantime, the adults we elect to the Senate are going to try to actually do something about the illegal immigrant problem confronting this country, JD not so much.

Actually I used my “That was Easy” button.

IGNORE him he is a RINO! He LOVES the RINO’s, he lives for the RINO’s, suffice it to say SteveLA is a RINO.

I will use this to make my point…
“Guess you’re not too concerned about it, but JD and his ilk are the reason Republicans lost the house, you want to support him knock yourself out. ”

McCain is the type of Republican that lost the House and Steve LOVES HIM some McCain. RINO is as RINO does.

Jaded- You must add

Scope (Diary) Thursday, May 6th at 9:09AM EST (link)

Flippant/Sarcastic to the RINO title.

As has been said above, more than once, this “diary” is worthless. The point could have been made in just a few words- I Hate JD Hayworth. Add to that, And am I happy that everyone knows my valuable (not) opinion, because I don’t know who I HATE more, JD or Palin.

Once more off the deep end for JD

SteveLA (Diary) Thursday, May 6th at 8:22PM EST (link)

JD Hayworth, proving once again his grasp of what’s really important weighed in on Los Sun Phoenix controversy.

J.D. Hayworth, the Arizona conservative challenging Sen. John McCain in the Republican Senate primary, wants an apology from the general manager of the Phoenix Suns over his remarks about Arizona’s new immigration law.
From CBS News

I wonder if JD realizes that the Phoenix Suns are a private enterprise, and they are free to do what they want, without his approval or showing him their birth certificates. Love the picture of JD in the article though, captures his best pose, mouth open spewing nonsense.

Never mind.

Why I support JD

JamesSmith130 Thursday, May 6th at 9:20PM EST (link)

John McCain is a sore loser. He is neither a conservative nor a progressive nor a maverick. This is a guy who holds grudges against his opponents personally and is a big baby. His recent conservatism is solely based on his personal grudge against BHO and not on any held principle. Lets look at his record.

He was a pretty orthodox conservative in his first few years. Then he was hit with the Keating Five and then championed campaign finance reform. Then he used that to run for President in 2000 and lost to Bush. McCain’s feelings were hurt.

Immediately he became Bush’s worst nemesis among the GOP in Congress, voting against his tax cuts and a bunch of other stuff and threatening to switch parties. In fact, had Jim Jeffords not done so, McCain may well have. Again McCain’s feelings were hurt.

Stung by the Jeffords switch, and the Dems refusal to court him enough, along with 9/11, McCain moved back to the GOP mainstream. Doing so, he expected that this would help him be the nominee in 2008. It did end up getting him the nomination, and he faced a guy he felt (and correctly) had not paid his dues, and had not given McCain enough credit for being the anti-GOP maverick that McCain prided he was. Again McCain’s feelings were hurt, and he determined himself to become the most anti-Obama senator that he could.

Which takes us to today. McCain has been pretty good in the last year and half because of his personal grudge against Obama (not based on principle). But who knows who would hurt McCain’s feelings next. If JD beats him or comes close, it will be conservatives that McCain lashes out against next.

Everything for McCain is personal. Until now, he has been sore about losing to Obama and has lashed out in that manner. That will change if he loses or almost loses to JD, and he will turn his hurt feelings against conservatives. Lets make sure that this big baby’s hurt feelings won’t drive Senate action, and make sure this guy is gone in 2010.

JamesSmith

You said noting, zero, no facts about why JD would make a good Senator. The fact is he won’t.

As the AZ Republic put it he’s a bully and blowhard and it’s not all all clear to me that he’s not corrupt too.

Maybe it is too bad that there is not a quality candidate running against Johnny Mac, but JD Hayworth is certainly not a quality intellect or person, that’s the way the cookie crumbles.

John McCain is unfit to be in public office. A stump would be better than him. And JD Hayworth is far better than a stump, even taking into account his deficiencies.

The point is, JD cannot find an endorsement…Reasons for endorsements are simple, it proves respected individuals think the candidate is worthy of their vote, and ours. McCain has received many, many endorsements. McCain is the best candidate. I suppose there are many, many reasons why not to vote for JD, but the simple truth is that he is unethical and corrupt, he is a blowhard and an egotistical, arrogant man who lost his seat in Congress after being voted the dumbest member.
