Glenn Beck: Obama won’t meet with BP CEO because he’s white
Glenn Beck has accused President Barack Obama of not meeting with BP's CEO because the British oil giant's top executive is white.

-----

"He’s a white CEO," Beck remarked. "Maybe that’s it… White CEO’s… they don’t want to pay their tax dollars and have those tax dollars go to ‘inner city kids.’”

Beck quoted a comment Obama made in 1995, which was taken out of context.

2. Pssst. Glenn! ...
Obama is the President of the United States. That BP guy is just a private, foreign citizen. They have no real reason to meet with each other. Officials at Interior, EPA and the Justice Dept. can handle the BP guy.

13. EXACTLY. Actually DUers are saying Obama should have met the BP guy.
~sigh~ Why the hell is the Dept. of the Interior not dealing with it.

4. Catering to the bottom 28%.
Who actually are capable of thinking this is true...and that the Peace Corps are a form of the SS.

Stupid mother fuckers...anyone who believes this is stupid beyond the pale.

5. Don't they call that
"playing the race card"? I'll bet most people don't watch Beck because he is an asshole.

Send him out of the country. Afghanistan would be good.

10. Yoo hoo, Glen....
Our President won't meet with you either and it isn't because you are white. Obama doesn't have time for douchebags.

20. I bet he refuses to speak with his white cabinet members and staff too.
Beck forgot to take his lithium.

21. The downward flaming spiral continues...
happens quite often w/people like this; their claims become more absurd w/each passing day. He's been off the deep end for a long time, kind of nice to watch him spiral down, don't be fooled though, he's gonna go a lot lower before he crashes...:D

22. Glenn Beck is such a piece of shit.
His always pulling the race card where Obama is concerned. He said he hated white people last year as well.

24. Watch Beck...just when you think he can't get crazier...

25. Beck wants a race war.
That's the only conclusion I can draw.

When Junior didn't meet with the NAACP and other minority organizations we never heard Beck or anyone say shit like this did we?

We need to start filing complaints to the FCC and start getting them fined. I am sick of this shit.

27. No, he met with the chair of BP's board
and he is a pure "Aryan." So much for Beck's bullshit.

28. Beck is a dumbass. This is just beyond ridiculous.
Why anyone would voluntarily watch that gibbering idiot is a mystery to me.
