Deception is a common thing for FAUX NEWS.
But sometimes they can be entertaining....

Beck was mistaken.
That is if the article you posted is even true.

That is how Beck & Oberman both make their living, by misquoting, paraphrasing to fit their agendas.

When you are losing an argument deflect it to some other unrelated topic, right out of the Faux news playbook.
EDIT: By the way Google Worst US President and see what happens.

Glenn Beck molested me... @_@
No, he really didn't... but ok; the guy is seriously a paranoid schizo who has grand delusions of a crazed black guy in the white house who he actually believes is:
A). Kenyan
B). A terrorist
C). Muslim
D). All of the above + the most liberal human being to ever exist
Answer = D.
The reality is... Obama is laughably liberal, and as far as I am concerned... the Democratic party isn't nearly liberal enough, half of the Republican party are actually Democrats, and the other half of the Republican party are Arkham Asylum escapees that Batman needs to beat the tar out of.
WTB a truly liberal party and a non crazy truly conservative party... KTHXBAI

If america was founded as a very liberal place (in the modern sense) I don't think it'd be half the nation it is today. In fact the 13 colonies might still belong to britan because they would have been pro-tax and pro gun control and not left, florida would still be a part of spain, the area of the louisana purchase would still be in french control, and the entire south-west would still be a part of mexico.

Why does this country need to be more liberal? This is a country built on free enterprise.
Today's liberalism manifests itself as leaning towards socialist practices, which are generally incompatible with a free market system. Our country is simply too large for us to be practicing total health care and very high tax rates.
Look at France - it is drowning in its social bills. While not completely socialist, workers have the advantage over employers. When Sarkozy made a speech about having to work harder, he was heckled.
In France they're given 36 hour (or something ridiculous) workweeks, 3 months vacation, and it's extremely difficult to fire someone. People don't deserve that. If you're shit at your job you should be fire, but oh no, not in France.
Look at Sweden/Denmark. They're completely socialist, but it's nigh-impossible to own a car there (100% tax on goods over a certain price). Denmark works because most of Denmark's populations are Danes - they share common cultural ties, a strong Scandanavian work ethic, and everyone who takes out of the system puts in.
When migrants were coming from Morocco and Algeria, up through Spain and into the Northern European socialist countries, they were taking out of the system and not putting in - so guess what? The Danes enacted very harsh legislation against migrants, specifically Muslim and African migrants, because the socialist system does not work with so many variables. France is having the same problems - it is writing out welfare checks to immigrants who don't do the same paltry amount of work that your average frenchman does.
Now, apply that to the United States. California is drowning in debt (I should know, I live in Los Angeles) due to the fact that we have so much liberal legislation providing for these immigrants and the poor. Section 8 housing, medical care, food stamps, the list goes on. Most immigrants do not pay income taxes or home taxes.
No, RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO that. We do not need more liberal policies. We do not share collective values as a society, and too many take out of the system, and it's a few people putting in to support them (10% of the country pays 80% of the taxes).
We need a bit more corporate accountability and stricter immigration laws, and less fighting, seeing as that's pretty damn expensive to.
