Glenn Beck admitted Thursday that he LIED because he "thought it would be a little easier."During his "Take Back the Civil Rights Movement Rally" Beck LIED claiming he held George Washington's handwritten first Inaugural Address in his hands at the National Archives, but a spokeswoman at the institution said he did NO such thing. Keith Olbermann, Ed Schultz and others called him out for the fabrication.
Beck admitted his LIE: "I thought it would be a little easier in the speech," Beck said, than to go into the following elaborate explanation (via Mediaite):
"YES. I LIED. I NEVER TOUCHED THE DOCUMENTS. Yesterday I went to the National Archives, and they opened up the vault, and they put on their gloves and then they put it on a tray. They wheeled it over and it's all in this hard plastic and you're sitting down at a table and you can't, because of Sandy Berger, I had a long conversation with him about this, you can't actually touch any of the documents, these are very very rare. So what they do, they have it in this plastic thing and they hold them right in front of you, you can't touch them but then you can say 'can you turn it over,' and then they turn it over for you and then you look at it. I thought it was a little clumsy to explain it that way."

Boy, talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. You really are desperate to dig up any small so-called piece of dirt on Beck and anyone else who doesn't agree with your views, aren't you? I watched the video it was no big deal and Beck explained it all. It was so damned petty of an accusation but what do you expect from the Huffington Post the far left, lib source.
We know how bitterly disapointed you and your ilk were that this was a peaceful rally with no black hangings and no guns ablazing. You all make me sick! You and your ilk are dividing this country and are nothing but anti-American POS's. You are going to start a civil war in this country with your hate filled rants.
Anon,
At least you admitted Beck LIED. He never touched Washington's inaguaral address. He also LIED about why the color changed on the Washington Monument. Beck often lies.
I allowed your comment to post because I wanted my readers to see a different Bad Anon's comments and let them see what I have to put up with.
Let's see. On a CIVIL Blog, you:
1. Use profane language (e.g. ilk, POS = piece of shxt; etc)
2. You use outrageous references out of the blue: "black hangings", "guns blazing." "start a civil war."
Why don't you want "the other side" to speak? You cannot stop the Voice of WE THE PEOPLE from telling the truth. This is America. We will continue to call a Lie a Lie and Speak the Truth. The 1st Ammendment supports WE THE PEOPLE in this.
Dear Dee :
I am an optimist, I think that President Obama is stopping the accelerated decline of the USA, that we saw during the Presidency of George W. Bush.
James Carville, the funny guy of CNN wrote a book about the next 40 years of Democratic Party Hegemony. I hope that he is right at least for only 10 years more.
Can you imagine the USA in the hands of the present Demagogues ??.
I am studying the modern American Demagogues - I hope that I do not offend you or any of your readers :
The ( Irish and German ) Catholic inside Great Demagogues : Father Charles Edward Coughlin, Senator Joseph McCarthy, Tim McVeigh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Sarah Palin, Tom Tancredo, Jan Brewer, Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler

Beck's explanation sounds credible to me.
