Beck's stated goal: Get administration officials fired, "take down this administration"
48 minutes ago —

In recent days, Glenn Beck has said that something he is "working on" will "take the administration down" and that White House interim communications director Anita Dunn "will have to go away" after "what we show you tonight." Beck and his fellow Fox News personalities have repeatedly called for Obama administration officials to be fired, asked people to dig up information on administration officials, and fearmongered about President Obama, his advisers, and his policies.
Beck: Working on something that will "take the administration down"

Beck: One of the things I'm working on, if proven, will "take the administration down." From the October 16 edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Glenn Beck Program:

BECK: I think there is going to come a time soon, and when you see what we have in -- that we're working on now, if -- if especially one of these things come to true -- come to fruition, and is actually true. We're working on four different stories right now that if any of them are true, it's big, big trouble. All of them appear to be, but we have to be able to nail everything down. One of which I think will take the administration down. There comes a point to where people have to say, "OK. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. This was right, this was right, this was right. These people had to go away." Now they won't answer this charge, this charge, or this charge. They won't -- they can't even address them without smears. <10/16/09>

Beck vows that Anita Dunn will "have to go away" after "what we show you tonight." From the October 19 edition of The Glenn Beck Program:

1. She wasn't planning on working in the WH and was planning on leaving at the end of this year.

I'm sure he will try to act like it is about him.:eyes:

edit to clarify - she started working in the WH a few months ago but didn't start when the new Administration started. She came in to help and wasn't going to stay long term.

3. Beck wants him killed. Why does he dance around it?
It's time to call him out into the world of reality. Beck is an assassin.

4. Dear Mr. Beck: I don't want to have to keep reminding you that WE WON
and YOU LOST. So sit down and shut the fuck up.

Sincerely,
kestrel

5. Ignore this self-promoting attempt at creating the illusion of influence over a normal occurance.
People leave presidential administrations. It NEVER doesn't happen.

When one preaches daily to the American Brigade Of Morons, one can easily convince them that the General Moron is causing things to happen.

Stinky the Clown: "Stinky the Clown will work toward parking tickets being issued by his community"

Daily Fish Wrap front page story: "Police continue to be responsible for the issuance of parking tickets."

Stinky the Clown: "See? I told ya so."

12. Today's equivalent of "I have a list of Commies right here in my pocket."
Also I would point out that Oily Tits has used similar language before several of her implosions.

10. If he's really trying to take down the administration
Then that sounds like he's trying to start a coup.

13. You may be right. They tried to have a coup with Clinton. He also wants
ratings.  I alos think those 81 sponsors leaving his time slot
has put him on his last nerve.

11. Beck's goal oughta be retuning his dental work for better reception. I bet Orly could tinker with
his fillings so he can hear his messages from Rigil Kentaurus crisp and clear

16. I wondered what he'd come up with
Rush has been getting all the attention lately.
Notice an awful lot of ifs in that statement?
He should keep Al Capone's safe in mind when promising incredible revelations.
