Jon Stewart Owns Glenn Beck on Healthcare Hypocrisy

POSTED BY: Matt Tobey

If you're like me, you woke up this morning to find the sun rising in the west against a green sky, you got out of your bed on the ceiling, took a fresh breath of carbon dioxide, thought about how repulsive puppies are and said to yourself, Glenn Beck is not at all a hypocritical lunatic. But if you don't live in Oppositeville, you woke up and saw this.



After the jump, Stephen Colbert discusses Glenn Beck's fleeing sponsors.

The Daily Show and Colbert Report air Monday through Thursday starting at 11pm / 10c.



  1. It's quiet clear that the "2" news sources for ignorance is Pat Robertson's "Religious News" – obvious rightwing extremists, hate and fear evangelical perspective and FOX which is pure Propagand that I ask all American's to refute. Freedom of speech is not freedom to incite hate and fear mongering (we all remember Hitler's success at this – Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, Coultre are the new Propagandists for their Communist/Fascist activities "masked as patriotism and morals" – The GOP constituents are moronic, they don't like being called being moronic, but when you cannot reason – and tell between fact and fiction – you are my dear neighbors – a moron. Fox caters to morons – and those of us concerned about the hate and fear mongering towards the idiots that would believe them. You – the GOP.

    WHEN WILL OUR WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS ABATE THEIR ASSAULT ON POORER AMERICANS WITH THEIR MONETARY CONTROL OF OUR IVORY TOWER U.S. CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER ???

    THERE ARE NOT MANY MORE DISTRACTIONS LEFT WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR OUR WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS TO HIDE BEHIND IN NOT TAKING PROPER CARE OF ALL OUR AMERICANS IN A HUMANE FASHION !!!

    RALPH NADER ATTEMPTED TO EDUCATE AMERICAN VOTERS ABOUT U.S. CORPORATE POWER IN AMERICA AND HOW THEY CONTROL OUR CONGRESSIONAL PEOPLE THROUGH THEIR POCKET BOOK (POLITICAL DONATIONS). * WITHOUT THE DOUGH $$$ THESE U.S. CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD DO NOT GET RE~ELECTED TO CONGRESS.*TO STAY IN POLITICAL OFFICE IN AMERICA,ONE HAS TO BARTER YOUR VOTES IN CONGRESS AND REPRESENT POWER INTERESTS IN RETURN FOR THE BUCK$.

    POORER AMERICANS HAVE NEVER HAD THE $$$ LOBBY TO INFLUENCE THIS CORRUPT POLITICAL CONCEPT (of horse trading political votes for political contributions) TO ACHIEVE PROPER HEALTH ~CARE OR LEGAL REPRESENTATION FOR ALL OUR MIDDLE ~ CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS.

    AMERICAN IVORY TOWER U.S.CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD HAVE PASSED FEDERAL LEGISLATION IN WASHINGTON DC TO SPEND 50 BILLION AMERICAN TAX $$$ ON THE INTERNATIONAL FIGHT AGAINST AIDS OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS WHILE THEIR OWN AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE BEING TOLD BY THIS SAME U.S.CONGRESS THAT NATIONAL HEALTH CARE AND PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION FOR MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR CITIZENS IS UNAFFORDABLE.

    *** WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS (WHO ARE ONLY 1% OF OUR USA POPULATION) SADLY ALSO CONTROL HOW OUR U.S.CONGRESS SPENDS THEIR BUDGET TRILLION$ AND HAVE OBVIOUSLY FOUND MORE WORTHY INTERNATIONAL CITIZENS THEN OUR OWN DESPERATE AND NEEDY POOR TO ASSIST !!!

    ~Poorer Americans Nationwide only get 400 million $$$ per year for legal representation allocated them by CONGRESS~

    Middle Class and Working Poor Americans are unable to afford proper legal representation in their Civil, Criminal and Family Courts of law all across America causing tremendous hardships nationwide,but these great minds and callous hearts in our American Congress have found others Worldwide more needy then their own citizens who are being falsely incarcerated,wrongfuly executed,losing their homes or apartments,losing child custody or visitation with their children etc�

    Not being afforded proper legal representation by our U.S. Congress has created a total breakdown of the American judicial system for our poorer Americans because the our U.S. Courts punish all of us little people if we are not assisted with proprer legal counsel.*It is a known fact that our average Middle Class and Working Poor Americans without proper legal representation in all of our American Courts of law lose their legal cases to the better financed who are able to afford lawyers.

    Lawyers For Poor Americans is now actively in the hunt for International Countries and Leaders Worldwide to help raise 5 Billion Dollar$ for our slighted poorer Americans who have had their own American Congress turn their backs on their desperate needs in not affording them proper legal representation.

    Troy Davis and Mumia Abu ~ Jamal are 2 perfect examples of American citizens who never had proper legal representation or defense investigations afforded them by our U.S. Congressional Leaders Of The Free World in their initial criminal trials in (Georgia and Pennsylvania) who might very well have to pay the ultimate price of possibly being completely innocent and falsely executed in the near future.

    These two poorer Americans are among tens of thousands of legal cases nationwide that never were afforded proper legal representation or proper defense investigations at their initial trials……**We the public really have no idea if these men are innocent or guilty until they both are given fair legal representation at their new future trials.

    Improper murder trials take place in Third World Countries all the time. *** Why should average Middle~Class and Working Poor Americans in the Wealthiest Country Of The World be treated as if they are living a Third World Life Style ??

  4. I remember when GB went through the ordeal at the hospital after his operation and caught some of the shows that came after. Stewart is really taking the short clips way way way out of context. Beck may use the term "healthcare system" in one of the clips but if you listened to all the things he said about the ordeal he was very obviously speaking about individuals within the system "not caring" about the patients they treat. and Beck has often said there is room for improvement even recently.

    As far as people who think stewart is more popular tan Beck (or anything on the comedy channel compared to fox news channel) try looking at the ratings. Just do a little research. Even the huff post will tell you the FNC is at number 2 only beat by usa network. Yet i read from posts of insulting people like robert lewis that only mormons and child molesters watch fox news. real smart guy there.

  5. Do you know any Mormons? Throw out all your good thoughts and know that Glenn Beck is a Mormon. I am not about to excuse his craziness but you must consider the following:
    Please tell me who, outside of other Mormon's doesn't think magic underwear is not kooky? Why do you think they downplay this aspect of their beliefs to the point that most people know nothing about it?

    These people deserve all the ridicule that can be heaped on them. Or we could point out that their prophet, Joseph Smith, got his revelation from a white lizard that gave him a pair of magical glasses that allowed him to translate the Book of Mormon. From gold tablets he dug up. Yeah, and I've got a bridge for sale.

    These people are members of one of the most ridiculous cults ever devised. If they had not succeeded in convincing others that they are still somehow Christians they'd have been ridiculed into obscurity long ago. Why we owe them a pass on their childish fantasies is beyond me.

    "All that serves labor serves the nation. All that harms labor is treason. -Abraham Lincoln

    Being offended isn't a one-way street. If you wish to believe the "Garden of Eden" was near present day Independence, Missouri, go for it. If you wish to ignore the hatred of the Mormon Church for blacks until recently, that's fine. If you wish to believe Jesus came to these shores & lived among the Native Americans after his crucifixtion, OK. If you wish to ignore the Smith family being run out of Western New York communities for fraulent activities, just say that's not true. Joseph Smith wrote in a letter that he wished his son to take the leadership of the church after his death. Young & the Nauvoo, Illinois, city fathers ignored it and took control of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Interestingly, the Reformed Church owns the property Smith is buried on. Open a search window and type in "The Expositor". You can read the 1844 Nauvoo newspaper that published one-edition. Smith had the paper destroyed immediately. This would lead to his arrest & then murder by a mob in Carthage, Illinois. I wrote my historical thesis on Smith's stay in Nauvoo, Illinois. Though I believe Smith was a life-long charlatan, a visit to the rebuilt 1840's era Nauvoo is well worth one's time.

  6. As a Danish/European citizen, I'm stunned and quite frankly shocked concerning the allegations and level of thinking from Fox/GOP and what appears to be about 50% of the American people. As a small country neighboring Germany, WW2 history is a part of our common educational curriculum. Comparing Obama's plans to Hitler and his regime is downright stupid and ignorant. In fact FOX news methods are very similar to Goebbel's. Instill hate by accusing the opposition of wanting to demolish democracy. Manipulate the publics feelings through lies and ignore unpleasant facts. Divide and conquer. Wake up for God's sake and start thinking for yourselves.
    We have universal health care/hospitals combined with private insurance/hospitals. This insures that anyone regardless of class and income receives the proper medical care if needed. If we need surgery it will be provided for us free of charge. Instead of bringing our credit cards to the hospital, we bring our medical care cards. In the public hospitals it doesn't matter whether you're an unemployed homeless alcoholic or a famous actor. Our lives are regarded as equally valuable. There are no "deathpanels", and there are no euthanasia programs. If you can afford it you are more than welcome to have a private insurance company take care of your medical needs. In fact a approximately 1/3 of Danish citizens have a private medical insurance through their jobs, but most people still prefer to use the public hospitals simply because of the medical expertise. This is not a flawless system, no system is, but it is without a doubt preferable to a free-market system, where the size of your wallet determines the quality of treatment.
    And for the love of God people, we are not communists! Communism is long gone and buried six feet under!
    All the best
    A concerned citizen of the world.

  7. dear andrea,

    i love your work.
    you should have gotten the meet the press job.
    today you interviewed texas senator hutchinson about health care
    and at the end of the conversation she does what so many republicans do and falsely stated that most people in great britian don't like their healthcare compared to the USA.
    i wish the media (YOU) would call these politicians out when they
    disinform the public, so people are not confused about the facts
    when deciding an important issue.
    either she did know and lied or should have know and is just ignorant
    which is just as scary.
    either way, please don't let politicians of either party get away with this.
    please see the latest gallup polls links below about patient satisfacton with healthcare in USA, great britian, and canada so next time someone tries to decieve the public you can set the record straight.
    thanks.

  8. Why is no when mentioning the fact that Fox appears to be the hand of a foreign governement determined to cause disharmony in our country. All of their commentators are in essence agents of a foreign govenment formenting a revolution in this country.

  9. Glenn Beck , Limbaugh and Hannity have a new theme song that suggests that Fox dung sifted appropriately is palatable: :)

  10. Is this place for those who don't watch Fox but tell you how horrible they are?
    Interesting that Fox has reported several news stories that have not been reported within the mainstream media agencies like NBC, ABC, or CBS. I have noticed that those 3 always report the same news stories. No wonder their ratings are in the tank.

    In fact when ABC reported directly from the white house on healthcare there was never an opposing view issued. Just what is the definition of Communism?

    I am curious to know how many here think that pulling sound bites, not in its entirety, for the purpose of creating a monologue is actual news?

    Don't get me wrong- I love me some comedy, :) but do most understand our country is in real trouble and blaming others will not solve it- and neither can throwing money at our problems.

    All I've seen our leaders do is spend our money. Unemployment is up to 9.4% even though we were told it would never go over 8% if the 700 Billion dollar bail out was passed. People want answers- and none are being given. Instead our leaders are attacking their own citizens character simply because they are registered to vote with another party other than theirs!? In order to take the focus off of their corruption I presume…
