Title: Glenn Beck: Donald Trump's making me 'uncomfortable'

Fox News host Glenn Beck said Friday night that Donald Trump has been making him "a little uncomfortable recently" with some of the wilder claims he's made about President Barack Obama.

Beck, who himself has made some wild claims about Obama, was speaking on "The O'Reilly Factor" and critiquing the two-part interview Trump gave to the show earlier in the week, in which he declared that Obama "doesn't have a birth certificate" and added he might not be showing one because it might say he's a Muslim.

"There is something reasonable to, you know, a reasonable conversation if you don't believe that he has a birth certificate." Beck said. "You can say, 'I don't believe he has a birth certificate.' But then he goes into 'I do not believe he has a birth certificate' and then he releases one that's worse than Obama's. And then he comes back and he says on your program, 'He might be a Muslim too.' I'm like, come on!"

When O'Reilly noted that Trump is "getting a massive amount of attention quickly" by espousing the "birther" claims and saying he would aggressively go after China as president, Beck argued there should be a push for "serious candidates who could shake things up by not saying provocative things."

And he added the nation doesn't need a "show boat."

I'm not scared of a Trump presidency because I honestly do not believe it will happen, whether he runs, or decides not, it's not going to happen.

But for O'Reilly and Beck to critisize Trump for his theatrics and showboating, well hell now, there's a couple of smelly pots calling the kettle black.

I've never cared much for Trump but here lately I actually like to read about him talking about issues other's are avoiding, even though they may not be the most important issues, people should be allowed to discuss them if they want. If Trump could make Obama just a little nervous, that would make me happy, I don't think Donald has what it takes to be president but I do believe his money and influence could maybe open doors we couldn't open ourselves. I wish him good luck at Fox and Friends and pray he doesn't disappoint us. jmho!

Out of Palentry, Huckabee, Romney, Gingrich, the clown from Indiana, Trump. I'd have to pick Trump. I think if nothing else he would be good for trade issues where we always get the short end of the stick.

What don't you like about him?

His showmanship turns me off. I think watching a few programs of a show he hosted once really turned my stomach. Contestants would vie, compete for executive possitions in some company of his but it was the way he would publically humiliate them, embarasses them, then dismiss these hard working people like they were nothing. It was his cold, heartless manner I didn't care for.

Just a gut feeling I suppose....
