Glenn Beck Uses Death Of Holocaust Survivor To Slam Al Gore
We're reached a new low.

What is wrong with these people? I seriously cannot believe the despicable depths these right-wing pundits will stoop to to knock people. If the usual routes are blocked or overplayed, they simply come up with some other random way to drive their ridiculous points across.
We’ve seen Al Gore blamed for high food and oil prices — but this latest approach by Glenn Beck is just revolting. Check out the below video as Beck for more than two minutes passionately tells the inspirational story of a holocaust survivor and her incredible work to help others. Then, watch incredulously as he ties all of this into one giant slam of Al Gore.
Irena, we’re sorry someone like Beck used your story to push an agenda. In all honesty, your work is more the type I’d like to see rewarded with the Nobel Peace Prize — but such could be said for many that have been nominated. The way Beck tells your story — and then demeans Gore for having the audacity to be nominated and win — just isn’t right.

This wasn’t as much of a slam on Al Gore as it was the agenda of the greens…Honestly do you think Al Gore deserves the Nobel Peace prize over what this lady did? She risked her life to save kids from dying at the hands of the Nazis…Al Gore is an elitist who flies on private jets and lives in Mansions and eats meat…
If Al Gore had any class he would have put his ego aside and walked away and let someone who actually had courage get the recognition. The media will continue to blow sunshine up his ass for years to come; even after this slight warming trend which plateaued in 98 and will soon resume its natural decline ends and he starts his “coming ice age” rhetoric.
I didn’t hear any spin coming from Glenn on this regarding the green movement. Since Al gore actually won and Irena Sendler did not, that’s observation based on factual events. I think it’s more a commentary on the state of our society.
I think he did a very good job of telling her story. And the so called ’slam’ on Al Gore wasn’t really slamming him, more so the people who picked him over her. I think it’s a valid point.
Besides if it was really THAT bad more people would care about what he said besides you.
Judging by these comments, it sounds like this website is the one pushing the agenda!
Keep up the great work, Glenn!

Nah, Beck really is an asshole. It’s completely a slam. Especially when he says “Al Gore won for a slideshow”.
Well that’s true. It wasn’t a slideshow, it was a “documentary” filled with gross exaggeration’s and lies. But hey, when there’s fear to monger, Why let the facts get in the way.
Al Gore is an idiot. Yeah right, he invented the internet and has a so-called green house. Give me a break. Irena did more for humanity than Gore has done for the environment. Look at his track record for energy consumption is.
Al Gore made no sacrifices for his ‘prize’. In fact, he PROFITED from his global warming panic mongering. A man of character, with nothing more than a biased slideshow, would have stepped aside in recognition of a far superior human being that put her life on the line.
