  George Soros has sat on evey TV show in America and said he went on field trips with the SS troops to confiscate Jewish propertiy, he said he found it exhilerating and he got a feeling of power that he liked . It was not just a one time shot, he did this many times and even said he had fun. This man wishes nothing good for anyone, or any country, he has no loyalties to any one country, especially the USA. I dont' know why anyone gives him the time of day, his English is very hard to understand and he talks like a zombie, I think he is demented. I am always amazed when people interview him, and give him a platform of any kind. Glen Beck is not my favorite person but he didn't say anything about George Soros that Soros hasn't said him self, every chance he gets on every TV show and in magazines. He equates himself with God, he said it took him some time to get used to being a God but he is comfortable with it now. Tell me he is not insane.

  seagreen, Glenn Beck knows too much about German history? And what are you implying. An interest in German history makes a person a NAZI. Should we ban people now from having an interest in German history. Of course he has an interest in German history, he is descended from German immigrants. What is wrong with wanting to know your own history. My parents are from England and Ireland and I know a ridiculous amount about English and Irish history, because that's my heritage. I hope under your rules, I'll continue to be permitted to pursue my interests in all areas of European history. Everyone has the right to know about the history or their own ancestors no matter how pretty or how ugly or how pleasant or unpleasant it may be. We all have the right to know our history. Is that now going to taken from us too?

• kell7757 | Jan 07, 2011, 10:15 AM EST

  This is just the same old Irish American political tradition we all know as licking the ass of the guy with the money, consolidating your power base, just trade a few of your rights and freedoms to get aligned with the money people. You know darn well Beck is not anti-semetic. It's just part of the groveling process at the feet of Soros. Beck has the right to his own opinion. I for one know the difference between someone who is anti-semitic and someone who is exercising their right to have an opinion about the actions and behaviors of their fellow human beings.

  You wish Baloney best economy in the world.

• maloney | Dec 01, 2010, 08:58 PM EST

  Funny the things you can read on the net. Looks like rooland is heading in the same direction as Ireland, Greece, Spain & unfortunately us. Sounds like Tasmania won't be necessary. I'll be moving my trailer next to yours seano. Make sure your daughters are proper bathed for my arrival.

• seanomelbourne | Dec 01, 2010, 06:53 PM EST

  I'm there trying to give you a boost out of the gutter. Why should I be bitter living in the best country in the world. Put your trailer on a boat and get here I've got a spot for you in Tasmania. You would feel at home there they marry their sisters and cousins just like you southern thrash

• maloney | Nov 29, 2010, 07:23 PM EST

  I wouldn't know seano. How do you deal with always having to look up to bottom feeders knowing you'll never reach those heights. Depressed, bitter & rooless is a sad legacy.

• seanomelbourne | Nov 29, 2010, 05:02 PM EST

  How doe's it feel to be a bottom feeder Baloney

• maloney | Nov 29, 2010, 09:18 AM EST

  As far as sodomy goes it's what obama is doing to America, rooboy.

• maloney | Nov 28, 2010, 10:00 PM EST

  seano, when you get your head out of your socialist idols arse I will care what you think, for the present I could care less. Sweet wee little man that you are. Swweeet.

• seanomelbourne | Nov 28, 2010, 06:08 PM EST

  Maloney when you have something interesting to say I will give you the benefit of my wisdom.You sure love that word sodomy,it makes one wonder HMmmmm.

• maloney | Nov 27, 2010, 07:25 PM EST

  I would think you would be worried about sodomy in Ireland, seano, rather than worried about telling lies about Beck. Your muslim buddies are going to stone your liberal socialist Irish friends.

• seanomelbourne | Nov 27, 2010, 06:19 PM EST

  What part of the yellow brick road do you live on?

• buzzer7 | Nov 26, 2010, 11:28 AM EST

  George Soros is a dangerous "One World" lunatic! Beck didn't say anything "anti-Semitic" about him! Read what Soros actually says about "taking over", and study his activities around the world. Get your heads out of the sand, regarding Soros' and his "Goals" for the future!

• seanomelbourne | Nov 24, 2010, 05:14 PM EST

  Beck lives in the gutter. I am amazed at the pro Israeli lobby on this site condoning a guttersnipes anti Semitic rantings shame on you Mman and Maloney

• Irishjule | Nov 21, 2010, 10:21 PM EST

  Patrick is not completely correct in his assessment of Glenn Beck. George Soros' mother was Jewish but was ANTI-SEMITIC herself and hated her Judaism. Soros to this day does not think of himself as a Jew. Beck is NOT anti-semitic and said so several times when talking about Soros. Perhaps he exaggerated when talking about 14-year-old Soros, but thank heavens that Glenn Beck is on the air and warning Americans about the turn that we are taking toward Marxism. Soros is out to destroy our republic and I have always believed he is pulling Obama's strings.

• johnconnolly | Nov 19, 2010, 01:28 PM EST

  Robert's comments border on rediculous..Soros have proven to be no friend of the United States and continues to fund groups who rail against the principles of our founding fathers.

• maloney | Nov 17, 2010, 09:15 AM EST

  starlet...are you saying what Soros does to country after country is OK?

• Starlet | Nov 17, 2010, 03:13 AM EST

  Posted by CaptainTom on Nov 15, 2010, 03:23 PM EST As my long departed Irish father would say; What do you expect from a pig but a grunt? Yes, Glenn Beck is jealous: wouldn't he wish to have Soros' power and money?

• maloney | Nov 16, 2010, 08:00 PM EST

  LOL!!Could you imagine a staff meeting, monsoon. o'dowd, cahir & the gang rubbing elbows with Beck. They should get along great, the Irish always did cotton to the Germans. Beck might give them a new outlook on life.

• Monsoonman | Nov 16, 2010, 07:38 PM EST

  How about Irish Central hire glen Beck as an editorial writer? He could take Roberts place.

• maloney | Nov 16, 2010, 05:34 PM EST

  seagreen...pick up a book & read. If everyone read as much as Beck, America wouldn't be in the trouble it's in now. Educate yourself.

• glorybe1929 | Nov 16, 2010, 03:13 PM EST

  These censored comments from the Irish is quite a bad mark on those who think truth is so Devine!

• glorybe1929 | Nov 16, 2010, 03:11 PM EST

  Why don't you print my comment? Along with pacifist?

• glorybe1929 | Nov 16, 2010, 03:08 PM EST

  Knowing Right from Wrong is a very important input given a child by their Jewish parents. Looks like they ran scared and never trusted in the Lord Of Israel. Dying for a cause is a good thing...to save your own skin by putting others in harms way is putting "self" over and beyond... that is Geo. Soros. He should appologize to the world he has scamed.

• glorybe1929 | Nov 16, 2010, 03:01 PM EST

  I think Geo. Soros has abandoned his Jewish roots A LONG TIME AGO. If he ever had any. This is a free country(USA) with free speech and Glenn Beck is giving his opinion of a man who has manipulated his life and money into areas that he knows will benefit him. Not benefit the Jews or the USA. I feel his whole family life taught him how to take care of Geo. He left his Jewish name. Names are very important to the Jews, if you've read any part of the OT. He could care less. Why are you being so self righteous? Ireland allowed the RCC to run their whole country FOR CENTURIES IF NOT milleniums and sexually abuse the innocents. What have you to say about that?

• maloney | Nov 16, 2010, 12:54 PM EST

  Beck will go down in history as a GREAT AMERICAN HEROE!!

• seagreen | Nov 16, 2010, 10:21 AM EST

  To the pacifist... Its the way it is !!! My post and link about Kennedy's "Capstone Speech" was also censored

• seagreen | Nov 16, 2010, 10:05 AM EST

  Glenn Beck seems to know so much about NAZI Germany. How can that be? Why not UNITAS in Angola, or FILQ in Columbia? I would guess he must have considerable interest in the method of operation, and the results that the NAZI regime realized! To learn all of this, and /or anything else, a person would have to have a degree of affinity for the history and workings of those that were responsible for all of the happenings..

• FatherVol | Nov 16, 2010, 08:33 AM EST

  Get off your high horse, Mr. Roberts. There are those of us who think you should be banned from this site for what you say about Mr. Beck.

• maloney | Nov 15, 2010, 06:35 PM EST

  gk..new or very short attention span.

• hancock | Nov 15, 2010, 04:26 PM EST

• pacifist | Nov 15, 2010, 03:44 PM EST

  You ask me what I think and when I send my opinion you don't show it. Why?

• CaptainTom | Nov 15, 2010, 03:23 PM EST

  As my long departed Irish father would say; What do you expect from a pig but a grunt?

• Pittsburghkid | Nov 15, 2010, 03:15 PM EST

  As my sainted Irish Grandmother used to say about criticism. "You have enough dirt on your door step to take care of before you talk about other people's doorstep. In America, we are worried that America will be the next Ireland or Greece. Their is talk of Ireland and Greece dragging down the world economy. Mind you, I am not going to tell you how to conduct Irelands business. You have far better people then I messing up your economy. All I can do is pray for Ireland, because you need it. Now for American, I believe that the status quo in America is being influenced by Soros' money. I also believe that the Soro's money is maintaining the American status quo. I think that America has the same status quo, that lead Ireland to the sad shape it is in. Glenn Beck is just one voice, along with Limbaugh, and Hanity, that feel Sorro's is a bad influence on America.

• downinthebasement | Nov 15, 2010, 03:12 PM EST

• pacifist | Nov 15, 2010, 12:59 PM EST

  FOA the Moderator: Where is the comment I submitted? Was it too close to the bone for comfort? Am I being censored? Is the First Amendment not applicable to me? I posted my comment many hours ago, but your site says it would take several minutes to appear, but hours later nothing!

• etig1130 | Nov 15, 2010, 12:02 PM EST

  Glenn Beck isn't going anywhere. He is the voice of reason.

• etig1130 | Nov 15, 2010, 12:02 PM EST

  Why in the hell would any of you imply that Liberals hate Jews? I'm a Liberal and I hate no one, certainly not Jews. I do, however, strongly dislike anyone who is so blatantly stupid that he/she would make blanket generalizations about groups based on nothing but his/her own delusions. Wake up people.

• maloney | Nov 15, 2010, 11:34 AM EST

  The left wingers 24 hour love affair with Jews is another liberal lie, motivated because they know Beck & the waking conservative movement is a much larger threat to them retaining power. Soros only gives money to Acorn & their sister orgs. to further his attempt to destroy America & line his pockets. He is the worst example of human kind on the planet. He has no use for the liberals & will abandon them when his plans are done. Then on to the next victim.

• Monsoonman | Nov 15, 2010, 11:17 AM EST

  Then there are the self loathing liberal Jews who are in on the condemnation of Israel and contributors to the democrat party. I'll stick with the ones whose mantra is "never again".

• hancock | Nov 15, 2010, 10:48 AM EST

  You would have to be Stevie Wonder to not observe that.

• Monsoonman | Nov 15, 2010, 10:43 AM EST

  Good observation Hancock.

• hancock | Nov 15, 2010, 10:32 AM EST

  I thought the left, particularly on this site, hated Jews?

• DLW12183 | Nov 15, 2010, 10:10 AM EST

  Glen must be right on or the liberal left wouldn't be crying either anti-semitic or racism (pick one based upon who is being challenged by Glen). Their standard response when they don't have any rebuttal. Sick liberals.

• mayoman | Nov 15, 2010, 09:10 AM EST

  Pat Roberts is right. Beck is a dangerously paranoid rabble-rouser and anti-Semite that should be canned immediately.

• eibhleann7 | Nov 15, 2010, 08:51 AM EST

  What a stupid article (pun fully intended)....Is this really worthy of the news? I think Pat needs to go back to journalism school and file his future rantings in the Opinion page.

• allentown | Nov 14, 2010, 09:50 PM EST

  Hopefully, we found out about George Soros before it was too late. Now Media Matters has been exposed and NPR is caving in to the Soros money.

• killowen | Nov 14, 2010, 09:19 PM EST

  i can't stand Fox folks but the muzzling of reality based observations - of why the holocaust really was set in motion - what folks did to avoid extermination - why Iraq under Sadam and now Iran hates the ME planted ones - the reasons as to why we were hit on 9/11 and continue being targeted. If the UN was worth its salt but then again the veto play would be the muzzler of such a complete diagnosis as to cause. An understanding of this and more is invaluable for us to go forward. Such reviews should be ongoing until man can stand erect and look one another in the eye without the shame and blame game. Anti anti - Shut-up shut-up is the whine to suppress thought.

  Patrick Roberts have you ever done any honest research on anything that you have written about? It does not appear that you are familiar with any subject that you pretend to know something about. You do us all a great diservice with your foolishness!

• willieboy | Nov 14, 2010, 07:29 PM EST

  Irish Central should fire Patrick Roberts for blatant exibition of stupidity

• rcrdskpr@aol.com | Nov 14, 2010, 06:41 PM EST

  really roberts, is this the best you can do on beck? you wish you had his audience. and so does every left wing "newsy" or commentator.

• 2BorNot2B | Nov 14, 2010, 06:36 PM EST

  If according to the überlibophile ciarrai, Beck is a mediocre disc jockey (how, and who exactly does the ratings on disc jockeys, where can they be found and how unbiased and credible are they?), then I wonder what his rating would be for the likes of those diarrheic-mouthed, hot-air wasting blow hards; Keith Olbermouth, Ed Fatso Schultz, Chris Thrill-up-his-leg-whenever-he-sees-oVomit Matthews (talk about a man-crush!), and the wannabeboy Rachel Madcow at PMSNBC, who literally waste their breath spouting off unmitigated hatred, and blathering endlessly on the merits of discredited talking points handed to them by the SOROS FUNDED Media Matters. I'm sure their ENORMOUS audience of about 20 people, among them ciarrai, waits with bated breath for their beyond mediocre, and increasingly irrelevant talking points in order to plaster them on every wall of the IC left wing blogorama.

• ciarrai | Nov 14, 2010, 06:06 PM EST

  Beck (who was a mediocre disc jockey in New Haven not so long ago) has, essentially, yelled "fire" in a crowded theatre or used the "N" word on the public airwaves. I am no "Jew lover". I love Jews and the sort of offensive comment that Beck made is inexcusable. I can only hope that the various Jewish organizations will keep up the pressure to make this childish firestarter be bounced by Fox. By the way, to the morons that are so critical of Soros, those who get all their (mis)information from FoxNews, consider the following: through 2003, Soros had given $3 BILLION to charitable causes.

• seamusmoore | Nov 14, 2010, 05:49 PM EST

  Beck should just head over to Ireland. There he will be labeled a "Jew lover" once he is asked about Israel's right to exist and answers in the affirmative.

• borefield | Nov 14, 2010, 05:44 PM EST

  George Soros is an evil, anti American man. Conniving and underhanded. Fox News is the only net work that will let the real TRUTH be told. The Left can't accept truth and honesty, they are much more at ease slanting the truth.

• maloney | Nov 14, 2010, 05:40 PM EST

  Soros said they should change the name of Russia to Soros. If Thailand ever get their hands on him, he's toast. At 80, hopefully he'll fall over dead before I finish this post.

• francisquinn | Nov 14, 2010, 04:24 PM EST

  As Beck's popularity increases the attacks against him increase.....Soros money is spread so far and wide even the Irish are fooled.. I guess the Liberl press has not yet gotten over the recent elections...

• kevinhayes | Nov 14, 2010, 03:48 PM EST

  George Soros is a GREAT American. Beck, not so much - like Palin, he's in it for the money.

• Mickk333 | Nov 14, 2010, 03:48 PM EST

  Glen Beck is a well known bigot. He barely refutes it himself. He, and the rest of his bigoted followers, are anti-American and an insult to the country.

• Blkcatwm | Nov 14, 2010, 03:27 PM EST

  I watched the program that Mr. Beck describes and talks about George Soros...HE ISN"T ANTI-SEMETIC!! George Soros is an Evil Man. Glenn Beck has gotten awards from the Jewish Anti-Deflammation League in October of this year for him being so PRO-JEWS! Soros is working on ruining the American Dollar and creating a World War III! If you actually watched Mr. Beck's shows, you would see he doesnt' say anything that he doesn't follow up with video from the other person's own mouth! Read one of Soros's books...he writes that he is trying to bring about a NEW WORLD ORDER by collapsing the US Dollar in a CONTROLLED way....Glenn Beck has Rabbi's on his program as well as other religious leaders, including Muslim clergy, so do your homework...or are you owned by George Soros? He happens to own alot of the Media these days...Propaganda anyone?!!

• galway2001 | Nov 14, 2010, 03:13 PM EST

  apologize to george soros are you out of your mind, what kind drugs are you on,glen beck is the most honest man in america,he tell's it like it is you liberals should give up,if things don't go your way your ready to get rid of everyone

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 02:45 PM EST

  Yes, people do betray their own and they are hated for it, roundly and justly hated. Irish literature is full of examples. We should expect to find our own worst enemies among ourselves. But writers like Lady Gregory helped spur the events of Easter Week 1916 when they wrote about traitors and helped Dubliners embrace nationalism; O'Casey did much the same a couple of decades later in writing about civil war times. aomiller's comment reminds me how painful it is to see the descendants of earlier Irish victims of racism becoming hate-mongers themselves and traitors to Irish history. Also, it leaves me wondering what ever happened to the renowned intelligence for which the Gaels have been praised since they met up with Roman and Greek historians in ancient times. It survived into the early 20th century and then the DNA stopped working? Beck's ill-logic is just too obvious for any half-intelligent person to miss--unless only the hate neurons are firing in the brain.

• kell7757 | Nov 14, 2010, 02:07 PM EST

  People do betray members of their own group, and especially so during wartime. It's a highly charged issue and not for the squeemish. It's certainly a huge part of Irish history -- is that why it pushes a button for Roberts so much.

• moygannon | Nov 14, 2010, 01:57 PM EST

  This anti-semitic accusation from the Jewish anti-defamatory group is becoming tiresome.

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 01:56 PM EST

  It seems evident, in maloney's and others' comments, that the only basis for calling Soros an Anti-Semite is his adult liberalism, for which maloney and others have a relentless hatred. It's a pity to let such a destructive passion, rather than facts and reason, drive one's politics.

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 01:45 PM EST

  Glenn Beck made the egregiously false statement that Soros helped to "confiscate the goods and the lands of Jews as a 14-year-old boy as they went to their death."-- A 14-year-old boy did that? And on the basis of this lie, Beck called Soros an anti-Semite. It does not take much thinking about Beck's words to realize that only anti-Semitism or some other mindless form of hatred could induce any viewer to accept Beck's pronouncement.

• aomiller | Nov 14, 2010, 01:37 PM EST

  The racist, anti-Semitic remarks that both this story and Glenn Beck's ignorant remarks have evoked here are a disgrace to any here who call themselves -- or pretend to be -- Irish. I have often described us Irish as "The Jews of the Gentiles," because we've been persecuted and occupied by the English for nearly a millennia; we've been discriminated against in the very United States of America with "No Irish Need Apply" signs in store windows during the Great Depression; we've known the "bottom rungs of the ladders" of social advancement wherever in our Diaspora we've been -- a Diaspora not wholly unlike that of the Jewish People's, one forced upon us by the Cromwells of our past as well as the Famines and the economic failures of our Island's economies. WE -- of ALL Gentile peoples -- should be aware of anti-Semitism wherever it raises its ugly head, and do all we can as decent Irish folks to stamp it out. Shame on those who posted comments here to the contrary. tony

• maloney | Nov 14, 2010, 01:33 PM EST

  Misreadings of Soros's words, Beck omits or distorts. Lying, lame arse, liberal, socialist pukes. Beck wasn't reading, he was watching videos, films of Soros speaking, as in the words were coming out of Soros's mouth. euro socialists along with your conterparts in America, obama, pelosi, reid, the sds bunch & obama's czars should listen to msnbc & go the violence route. It's all ya got left. The lies aren't working anymore. Your countries are falling apart & your own liberals are turning on you more & more each day. Doesn't get any better than this. Other countries laughing at obama & telling him to mind his own business. As bad as it looked for the Repubs. in 08, everything will be handed back to them by 2012, if not before. Socialism crumbling world wide.

• PhlutiePhan | Nov 14, 2010, 12:51 PM EST

  The seeds of militant communism came from the Jewish community and rebellion against the czars. It just so happens that Stalin sold them out and Trotsky is the most vivid example. It would appear that George Soros is "hiding in the shadows" and has the same "DNA" as Trotsky. Why should Glenn Beck apologize for criticizing someone who is actively working for the overthrow of America? George Soros is Hungarian and you can check with the Cardinal Mindzenty Foundation for verification.

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 12:47 PM EST

  The more you look into it, the more interesting a comparison between 14-year-old Joseph Ratzinger and 14-year-old Soros becomes. According to the [London] Sunday Times of Apr 17, 2005, "Two years later [after his the Nazi Youth days] Ratzinger was enrolled in an anti-aircraft unit that protected a BMW factory making aircraft engines. The workforce included slaves from Dachau concentration camp. . . . He was sent to Hungary, where he set up tank traps and saw Jews being herded to death camps. He deserted in April 1944 and spent a few weeks in a prisoner of war camp. . . . He has since said that . . . any open resistance would have been futile — comments echoed this weekend by his elder brother Georg, a retired priest. . . . 'Resistance was truly impossible,' Georg Ratzinger said." I suggest that we take the word of the pope and his brother and scoff at the idea that Soros could have been a 14-year-old anti-Semite Nazi conspirator. I doubt that Beck would listen to the pope, however. As Patrick Roberts suggests, he and FOX News have "no shame."

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 11:59 AM EST

  cathy/marty, the claim that someone is an anti-semite is not a "fact." It is an opinion, which OUGHT to be based on a careful appraisal of facts. But Beck notoriously omits or distorts the "facts" part of his rants. You cannot sue someone over an opinion, however outrageous and fear-mongering the opinion may be.

• cathy/marty | Nov 14, 2010, 11:51 AM EST

  Beck only gives facts,that are verifide before he makes a statment. Other wise he could be faced with a law suit.So stop feeling sorry for Soros and the jews. And get your facts straight,

• phoenixnurse | Nov 14, 2010, 11:51 AM EST

  Soros is an Evil, Wicked man..... wise up... Soros admits in a video that was played on the Glen Beck Show, he had no compassion for the Jews nor did he feel guilty. Soros is ashamed of being a Jew! Don't take things out of context...I watched the entire presentation. Soros needs to stay out of America...he's poison to this great country..he now literally owns the Democratic Party and all of his little minions bow and kiss his feet... they will do anything for MONEY...including selling out America! Wake-up...it's happening right now

• Bairbre | Nov 14, 2010, 11:50 AM EST

  What planet are you on Patrick? Obviously all you read is the liberal mantra brainwashing trashing crap and don't do your own investigation. You need to read Soros' own words on his Jewish roots, participation in WWII, his destruction of world economies with no thought to the harm done to the Common Man, power driven..... not the newly redated stuff to remodel the real Soros! Have you no shame........ of course you do not, you are the typical hating liberal socialist progressive agenda power to the elite driven zombie....No I am not a Republican!

• eiriamach | Nov 14, 2010, 11:46 AM EST

  I'm confused by the discussion below: was it George Soros who, at age 14, joined the Hitler Youth and whose photo of him proudly sporting a Nazi uniform, can be seen on a dozen Internet sites? No? No, I remember now: that was Joseph Ratzinger, who has not shown himself a supporter of Judaic culture. Soros was the 14-year-old who fled to a rural outpost under an assumed name in the hope of eluding the Nazis. Like many Irish who hoped to escape British despotism, he took on the poverty and anonymity that might serve to keep him alive and walking in the tradition of his ancestors. Anti-semitism is alive and well today. Beck's diatribe has generated hundreds, by now probably thousands, of hate-speech-spewing blogs--just Google it for a horrified view of Beck's intended consequences.

• LarryDoyle | Nov 14, 2010, 11:29 AM EST

  Glenn Beck is an opportunist fear monger. He is not attempting to dispense facts or seek the truth, he doesn't like the left and will use any means possible to discredit it. He is an entertainer, not a truth seeker

• jamthecat | Nov 14, 2010, 11:21 AM EST

  Fox won't do a damned thing to Beck because he's parroting the beliefs of his masters -- Murdoch and the Saudi Royal Family. And just like in Germany prior to Hitler's rise, Beck is spreading lies and deliberate misreadings of Soros' words to build up a hatred and distrust of Jews who dare to care about something other than their pocketbook (like the Koch Brothers). It's sickening and diseased, but the fact that the vile little Mormon worm (oh, wait, am I being not nice about Mormons, here? STFW?!) has so many defenders shows he knows the racism and hatreds of his audience and plays to them well...not just about Jews but blacks and Latinos, too. So News Corp is happy. Congratulations, Glenn, on doing your evil work so well. And I can only hope that you burn in hell for it.

  PATRICK ROBERTS SHOULD BE FIRED!!! HE IS A BLIND LIBERAL AN INCOMPETENT OF WRITING!!!

• maloney | Nov 14, 2010, 11:00 AM EST

  Hating liberal socialists = Beck doing a great job.

• diannerae | Nov 14, 2010, 10:42 AM EST

  I think he should have been fired long ago

• patrickesq | Nov 14, 2010, 10:35 AM EST

  Glenn Beck makes a living and big profits for Fox by exploiting people's prejudices. Unlike Don Imus who had the decency to apologize for his racist remarks about the Rutgers' basketball players in 2007, Beck lacks any sense of decency and integrity. Imus got fired for his remarks, Beck gets applauded by far too many for his repeated, blatant, unfounded personal attacks. The political orientation defenses of his degrading behavior are false and repugnant.

• SouthBendNative | Nov 14, 2010, 08:34 AM EST

  You are truly an idiot. Beck used SOROS'S own written words. Irish Central should fire you and make you apologize for gross incompetence.

• maloney | Nov 14, 2010, 07:47 AM EST

  kenfromdumblin..liar & coward. Get on the boat, whack a Jew, it's good for ya.

• newcanaan | Nov 14, 2010, 06:37 AM EST

  Great idea Paddy, lets fire Beck for telling the truth.

• downinthebasement | Nov 13, 2010, 10:54 PM EST

  Ken...you are an Irish Nazi...a blue shirt...no doubt... Talmud is not a religious book...you ass... I say...you help the "good folks" in Gaza...and me and Ian Paisley...will support the God fearing Protestants who are fighting Popery up North in the United Kingdom... Join me...Ken...in saying: God Bless Her Majesty the Queen...(I am not referring to Benedict)...God Bless Her Majesty the Queen...Elizabeth II...Her Most Protestant Majesty who rules England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales... Here here...Never Surrender...

  Downinthebasement - "Fox is a Jewish media organzation, you say...and Israel is to blame for all the problems in the world" - note the blend of lies and truth, I never stated the latter.

• KenfromDublin | Nov 13, 2010, 09:22 PM EST

  Downinthebasement - I see you disingenuously do not deny that Fox is a Jewish media organisation, while inferring that it isn’t, so if you believe it is not a Jewish run media operation please state so - with reasons why - in your reply to this comment. As for me being a candidate in the ‘peace’ flotilla to HELP Gaza, (note his use of the word ‘go’ folks) well I love to, but I would risk a bullet in the head from the ’war & murder’ psychopaths from Israelis that want to decimate Gaza and it’s people, and who had no hesitation in murdering 11 civilians on one of those boats. As the Jewish Talmud states “ If a gentile hits a Jew, the Gentile must be killed”

• downinthebasement | Nov 13, 2010, 08:07 PM EST

  Ken...you aren't anti-Jewish, are you? Fox is a Jewish media organzation, you say...and Israel is to blame for all the problems in the world... I think you would make an excellent candidate to join the Irish "peace" flotilla to go to Gaza... Please sign up...and wave your tri-color as you try to defeat the Israelis...the Arabs need you... You can be an Arab Sir Lawrence of Arabia... If Fox is a Jewish media organization...I can say that the Irish Foreign Ministry is a branch of the Vatican...(which it is)... Irish policy on Israel is identical to the Vatican's foreign policy...i.e., both nations want Israel to cease to exist.

  Fox news is a Jewish media operation and this was all scripted to divert attention away from Soros, who blames Israel and US foreign policy for fomenting anti-semitism around the world. Soros previously said European anti-Semitism is the result of the policies of Israel and the United States. “There is a resurgence of anti-Semitism in Europe. The policies of the Bush administration and the Sharon administration contribute to that,” Soros said. “If we change that direction, then anti-Semitism also will diminish,” he said. “I can’t see how one could confront it directly.”

  It's kind of obvious that had Mr. Schwartz not changed their name to Soros the boy would not have been merrily skipping along with the Nazi's. Soros saying later in life that 14 was the happiest year of his life. Watching the rounding up & death of Jews didn't bother the boy. He actually enjoyed it do to his mothers great hate of jews, even though she was one. She passed her hate on to her son. Now just where were the half truths you spoke of fioseeker? You can't twist this away inspite of being a left wing socialist Soros suckup. Soros SR. helped in the confiscation of Jewish property. Just like Hitler, the Schwart family hated Jews even though they were Jews. Why no mention, fiorseeker, of his American govt. statements or his hating Jews or him thinking he is god or enjoying the games he plays in bankrupting countries? Couldn't you find a way to turn them into half truths in your warped mind? It is kind of tough turning the truth into socialist propaganda but I'm sure you'll keep trying.

• McNabb1966 | Nov 13, 2010, 04:41 PM EST

  Soros is the anti-Semite. Beck is not responsible for the creepy sociopathic tendencies of George Soros. Besides, Patrick, I thought anti-Semitism is in fashion now for Lefties...

• fiorseeker | Nov 13, 2010, 04:17 PM EST

  Maloney, stop telling half truths. Soro's father changed te name from Schwartz to Soros due to anti-semitism. And Beck WAS incorrect in saying Soros helped in nthe confiscation of Jewish property. He was no more than a spectator. He did not aid and abet in the confiscation.

• hancock | Nov 13, 2010, 12:21 PM EST

  No wonder Ireland was occupied for 800 hundred years. The North still to this day. What a bunch of useless busybody, crybabies.

• Tony Barry | Nov 13, 2010, 11:56 AM EST

  No apologies necessary Paddy....I guess the truth about your left wing buddy hurts...you're hatred for Fox News is very apparent....GEE, I don't understand why it is the most popular.

• imokyrok | Nov 13, 2010, 10:30 AM EST

  Anti-Irish, anti-Catholic defamation? I must have missed all that paddy bashing in my perusal of American media and politics. Probably buried under the Muslim bashing and Mexican bashing so prevalent in your society these days.

• Rebelforce | Nov 13, 2010, 09:31 AM EST

  Calm down Paddy boy. I doubt American Jews need you or irishcentral's help with this matter. They'll handle this, you can rest assured about that. It would be a nice surprise though if you could get this outraged over anti-Irish or anti-Catholic defamation in the American media. We all know there's plenty of that.

• imokyrok | Nov 13, 2010, 09:20 AM EST

  Fox won't fire Beck. They support his demonisation of individuals and organisations that help their fellow man. And as the US legislation makes it nigh impossible for a public figure to defend him/herself against defamation there's little to be done when unscrupulous individuals like Beck are given free rein. Sure Fox won the right in a court of law to lie to it's customers and most of it's customers wallow as happily in the lies and distortion as the proverbial pigs in muck.

• maloney | Nov 13, 2010, 08:46 AM EST

  Patty Roberts, just exactly what does this article have to do with the Irish? Other than your hate for Beck & Fox news. Also your obvious love of Soros. O'Dowd, control your marry pranksters or are your pockets filled with Soros money?

• bogsidebunny | Nov 13, 2010, 08:45 AM EST

  The United States has the FIRST ammendment, thank goodness. Unlike Ireland where everything is verboten and "racist" even when the evidence supports statements. Liberal Irish love you as long as you tout their agenda. Say one thing they disagree with and their sanctiminious, bully-boy hammer comes down on your head. GLENN BECK RULES!

• maloney | Nov 13, 2010, 08:12 AM EST

  Roberts...you know your liberal arse didn't see the Beck segment about this. You read this in some liberal rag. Soros has said the best year of his life was when he was 14. He was with the Nazi's during occupation. His real name is Schwartz not Soros, changed by his father. Soros said the problem with American govt. was that only Americans could vote for Potus, congress & house. Soros is a Jew. Soros hates Jews. Soros thinks he is god. Beck said nothing wrong. You need to do research before you write trash that no doubt you copied from somewhere else. All these things about Soros & much more can be found by googling, youtube & the blaze. Plenty of video footage of his madness & desire to take over the world with no care for the millions he has hurt.
