Eric Boehlert at Media Matters wonders if Glenn Beck has forgotten that the entire reason he is in hot water with advertisers revolves around the fact that he called the President of the United States a "racist" and someone who has "a deep-seated hatred of white people".

Because, you know, in all of his lashing out this week and last at his critics, he has yet to address this central point. Certainly he has not apologized for it. In fact, he's acting as though he never actually said it. As Boehlert puts it:

I ask because watch this clip below of Beck on Bill O'Reilly's show this week and watch as the two men bemoan the attempts by nasty liberals "loons" to shut Beck up; to snatch away his Freedom of Speech.

What's rather astonishing is that while Beck and O'Reilly clearly make (indirect) references to the ad boycott campaign, they never explain to viewers what sparked the outrage. They never explain why. They never explain the campaign was launched in direct response to the fact that Beck went on national television and called the President of the United State a "racist"; somebody who flashed a "deep-seated hatred of white people."

At Fox News, that smear has been flushed down the memory hole, and all that's left is playing victim.

Ah, but here's the one thing: If you've been watching Beck this week on his program, he's been imploring his audience to record it -- write it all down, even -- because it's the Most Important Stuff They'll Ever Watch on the Teevee.

That's because, if you watch what he's been doing so far, what seems to be emerging is that he is basically building a case justifying his declaration that Obama is a racist who hates white people.

This became crystal-clear midway through his Fox News program Thursday night, during a segment featuring ex-Democrat now complete loser Patrick Caddell and the ever-vivacious Michelle Malkin to heartily agree with whatever craziness came burbling out of his mouth.

They were all gathered to talk about the "army" of "thugs" that President Obama is planning to gather under the combined umbrellas of ACORN, SEIU, Color of Change and whatever other insidious "radicals" Beck believes he's uncovered.

And what does this "army" of "thugs" look like?

Why, they're all black people, of course.

Watch the segment and observe the examples he offers of the kinds of "thugs" he says Obama intends to incorporate into his army: some gun-toting Black Panthers, a shot from a Louis Farrakhan sermon before a Nation of Islam gathering, and a group of young black men doing military-style exercises.

This, as he explained earlier in the show, will be "Obama's SS."

So we now can see the arc of Beck's thesis this week: He was right to call President Obama an anti-white racist because he is this very moment forming an army of militant black thugs to take over your white neighborhoods and threaten your children and impose a liberal fascist state.

Or something like that.

You do have to wonder when the honchos at Fox will realize that Glenn Beck may bring in the ratings, but he is inflicting a deep scar on their brand name that will be a long time fading.

I don't watch him never will either.

No

Amen!

We have better worry about Bush/Cheney's creation of Halliburton and Blackwater mercenary contractor and army..
Bush/Cheney has taken a small mercenary army and private contractor and turn them into two of the largest private contractor and military force on the face of this earth..
They have shown their disregard for laws , our country , our soldiers , human life and their lust for wealth , control and power. In Iraq and when Bush gave them the contract to control New Orleans where the citizens in that area believe somehow they have been transferred into a foreign country with no laws..
Cheney has interwove these private contractors throughout our intelligent agencies , FBI , CIA , head of our government organizations and their own military army with their recruiting the best that American has trained for our military into their dangerous force which knows no bounds or law...
We have given them the best of equipment , training and experience by paying them (with our tax money) 10x that of our soldiers to fight in the middle east.. These contractors are the ones Bush/Cheney used to carry out their criminal crimes of picking up citizens anywhere in the world and taking them to some secret prison to torture and do as they d... well please..
Our elected officials seems to be afraid to even talk about their criminal crimes much less investigate or prosecute them..

But are Beck and the others just projecting?

I mean . . . they are what they claim to despise?

Beck is a flamin racist pussy.

At some point, I'm not sure when but fairly recently, I decided that I don't care what these assfucks do. To get enraged over clowns like these is really wasting my energy and actually supports their cause. If they get me mad, the terrorists win. On the other hand I'd like to see O'Reilly, Beck, Hannity, Coulter, Malkin, Limbaugh, Savage, Ingraham and all the other lying apologists get into an orgy together sucking, licking and getting each other really hot and then someone drop a bomb on them. Oops, did I write that out loud?

kick O'Reilly in the chin.

Yep

Amen

"flamin ... pussy" made me wince and protect.

Handypants

But are Beck and the others just projecting?

Ayup. Annoying, isn't it? It's one of their favorite tricks (you know, like an animal trick, not a real magician's trick.)

.

C'mon, you're missing the big picture. Just think of how much money could be made if this country slipped into civil war. It's not like we haven't done it before.

More armament sold, more teevee viewers for Faux "News," more Patriot Acts. It's win/win!

Keep in mind that Fox viewers will continue to watch Fox no matter WHAT they put on. So concerns about whether this will hurt their brand is pointless: they have a viewership that wants what Fox is selling no matter what it is they are selling.

They're like people who reflexively buy crap off the shopping channel just because Joan Rivers is selling it or whatever.

oh jesus that evony chick I gotta go use the bathroom

their not living and producing anything. They should be out tarring and feathering Executives who are out there at this very instant sending what remains of U.S. jobs to Mexico and China.

Fox isn't selling anything to their viewers. They're selling their viewers to their advertisers. Please, for the love of Carlin, please NEVER FORGET THAT.

We can't do anything about Fox having committed wingnut viewers, but we can do something about them having advertisers. I say work that boycott until there are no Fox News advertisers left but gun and ammo companies and the KKK. Get the focus off of Beck and put it on his enablers, Fox News. Fox without Beck would still be a racist hate speech fascist propaganda purveyor. Contact their advertisers and tell them you won't buy their wares while they advertise on Fox News.

We can still call becky names though, right?

Since all of Faux is standing behind Beck and providing additional air time to him, why are these folks advertising on Faux at all?

from right wing policies.

man unless it is only to watch the inevitable train wreck... Other than that, I don't see the attraction. He is clearly unhinged.

I thought he was just unzipped.

I thought he was just unzipped.

No...he is what pops out.

Years before, it was Eddie Murphy was all of the plot...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jl-N__xMwds

(better not let Fox get a hold of this!)

if this isnt racism projected i dont know what is
im sure this shit really does scare beck and its because that
there are other poeple in this world that hold a viewpoint entirely different than his. THIS IS BY NO WAY AS EXTREME AS INDIVIDUALS BRINGING ASSAULT WEAPONS TO RALLIES.

i seriously cant handle this shit anymore. happy five years crooks and liars but i cant watch these beck and oreilly clips anymore. its seriously ruining my psychology. all this is going to do is fire up the people that are already ignorantly scared. the end is coming. these assholes want to take it to a level that too many of us arent comforable living on. my TV has been turned off for years.
its almost time to turn off the internet too.

There's a willing audience for scary campfire stories.

Fifty uears from now, people will play clips of these Fox news zombies so they can laugh at them, much the same way we laugh at old films like "reefer madness."

Today's youngsters won't be able to believe their grandparents were so foolish.

I hope we all live to see that.

the area I live in right now, will be underwater.

So hopefully yes, unless I meet up with the "death panel" by then...

/ snark

..the world will last that long.

I sincerely doubt it.

the planet will still occupy the same area in the solar system...We humans, and most other life on this planet however...not so much.

I wish I could be so optimistic. If it came down to a civil war, these people would win because they sanctify aggression and weaponry and they've got much of the police on their side. How can we be so sure our grandchildren won't grow up in a country even more dominated by right-wingers than ours is now, a world where they won't even know that there ever was any opposition to the Becks, Limbaughs, Bushes, and Reagans? That seems more plausible to me at this point.

Last night Beck had over 3 million viewers at 5pm, second only to O’Reilly for the night.

I didn't know you coild get cable in them thar hills. Do they put their teevee in the outhouse or in the parlor?

Not wise to imply that they're all unschooled hillbillies. The US education system is so bad that even people with advanced degrees can end up believing this shit. And right-wing philosophy really appeals to the wealthy, so Beck's fans are hardly all poor.

..from what the conservatives in this country want to do in what way?

Frankly, I'm more concerned about a "Christian" SS coming to my door, forcing me to read the Bible and burning my collection of "Science Fiction" books which would be considered blasphemous in their eyes.

A chubby teen, walking in a line with camo pants and another doing a strange pose (that looked like yoga?) and saying, "because of Obama, I'm going to be the next lawyer".

That was kinda cute, not scary.

Angry adults, stock-piling ammo to blow my fool head off as a patriotic duty, that is not cute.

Plus, and this is a big plus, he has been going after Obama's "czars". The only ones he is pointing out are the African American ones. He goes back, finds something they wrote or said in the past and then takes that statement and connects it to something insidious like limiting the children you are allowed to have or calling the person a communist.

When he brings on the likes of Malkin and Caddell to solidify his thesis, you know it has no basis. Just because he found two idiots to agree with him doesn't make what he says a fact.

Black president, black groups, balck panthers and muslims, There must be a connection.

SNARK!

HEAD FOR THE HILLS! The blacks are taking over and will probably bring some secular humanist pigs and gays with them. Be afraid, be very afraid. I hear they eat children and kill old people.

How long before they just say fuck it and let the full on racial slurs fly? Until companies pull ads from Fox instead of just Beck's time slot ,what's to stop them.

The big problem is that there are a lot of people out there who are just simple minded enough to take everything Beck says as gospel. These are also the people who think their guns are their only defense against what Beck conjures up. That's where it gets seriously scary.

"Beck is a National Treasure and a Scholar!
Listen and learn my friends, listen and learn!"

Just sent me literature from Beck. Forwarded to her by my uncle. They both have advanced degrees. Degrees from places like CA at Berkeley and Colombia Univ. (NY). Oh, and Medicare, they are both on it, one is on VA too, but I get regaled by the dangers of socialized medicine too. I've worked at two major pharmaceuticals and when I try to explain how the system works, they hang up on me!

They are neither simple-minded nor stupid. It is like some cult and I don't know how to free them.

Yes, they are stock-piling ammo & food.

I don't know what to tell you...
This country is turning into an episode from the Twilight Zone for real...and not one with a happy ending either.

The most right-wing person I ever met was a coworker with a PhD in sociology. He believed all blacks should be imprisoned and wasn't sure slavery should have been abolished.

Work that computer, ladies and gents, scare their advertisers with promises of lost revenues $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

If Beck can go on the air and "suggest" a connection between Louis Farrakhan, the Black Panthers and the Obama administration then someone should be on the air making the same accusations "suggesting" a link of the American Nazi party, the Arian Brotherhood, the KKK, and Timothy McVeigh to the Republican party.

who owns the MSM. Fat, rich white guys.

Seriously a couple of guys or some footage of some overweight kids in army surplus store clothes isn't proof of an army being formed. That is all he's got for evidence?

And, it's been a real journey into the heart of madness and insanity.

According to Heil Glenn, President Obama is a:

Communist
Marxist
Maoist
Black Panther

With ties to the:

Weather Underground
New World Order

And, nuttiest of all, according to Heil Beck, Obama is in the process of "transforming" AmeriCorp into a private, civilian army and police agency to oppose the four branches of the military.

I really wonder how long Murdock is willing to let this far, rightwing lunatic off his leash without corporate sponsorship to pay his salary? At some point, Murdock is going to grow weary of paying Heil Beck's salary out of News Corp's earnings before taxes.

..Hallibruton was a charity?

How low can they go? On second thought don't answer..

Murdoch and his buddies will run Faux into the ground, if it will enable and bring about their fascist revolution. Disposable.

Americans are so poorly educated that for years they've equated communism and fascism. No wonder right-wingers can tell them anything and have them believe it.

PEOPLE THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. Fox i.e. Beck and O'reilly are the most watched cable "news" shows in the US. This is a big problem.

that you have to pay extra for in many of the cable markets. More proof of complicity in controlling the message.

was just recently removed (or moved further down the dial, which for my mother-in-law, who owns an older TV with only 100 channels, amounts to to the same thing)from my Mother in law's cable service. Has anyone else noticed these shennannegins from the cable company? I notice FOX comes in loud and clear.

Last year my cable company took c-span2 off our cable and now if you want it you must rent a box from them for five dollars per tv set in your house.

live from the internet, not so with MSNBC but can get parts of some programs on video from MSNBC after they post it on the internet. I watch the whole segment of Coountdown at 11:00 p.m.

In my mother in law's city, the station that ran Air America was bought up by Clear Channel and replaced with yet another FOX sports station (there are at least five in her city)

when any of the opposing views are "CENSORED" from the American citizen. If the oligarchy cared about freedom of speech they would not "CENSOR" Air America and MSNBC.

This fat head is exactly like George Wallace, only Beck has a nightly national television show sponsored by Fox. It is repulsive at best.

They are inciting a race war ni this nation. it is totally irresponsible and a blatant and dangerous abuse of free speech!

... when he has the 82nd Airborne?

Because the 82nd Airborne isn't nearly insidious enough for the likes of Beck.

According to this video, if two blacks wear black, white, grey, blue or camo this gibbering turd is going to claim some sort of threatening paramilitary organization is at work, and linked to Obama.

I, sure as heck, hope that the moran doesn’t drive by any fast food chains, or he will see a whole host of young blacks wearing uniform clothing, one group even dressed as terrorist pirates.

When is science finally going to connect Beck’s deep-seated hatred of logic to having grown up beneath a high tension electrical power line, give him the Randle McMurphy treatment, and put him out of our misery?

OMG....these people are shameless...CRIMINAL ....!!

"You do have to wonder when the honchos at Fox will realize that Glenn Beck may bring in the ratings, but he is inflicting a deep scar on their brand name that will be a long time fading."

I don't wonder at all - they don't care what scar is inflicted, even on their precious brand. These are the idiots who went to war in Iraq to make money and bragged about creating their own reality.

Rebranding is just a corporate strategy for them - and their viewers never count the lies anyway, so anything that keeps them riled up is a win-win for Faux.

Never forget, these are people without integrity, ethics or morals. Lies are nothing more than a means to an end, and the only end that matters is the end where they emerge the winners, at any cost.

'and in the darkness bind them'

Gee a President of the United States formenting a private army to do his dirty work. Unanswerable to any legal branch of the Government and lead by radical racial motives? Cough! Blackwater

When a Repug does it. Where have you been?

... The Plumbers. Cough... Iran/Contra. Cough...

I'm gonna need some more cough drops.

When Beck was ranting on about this, Blackwater came to my mind too. That's an army that is already up and running and frightening as hell. If Beck was bitching about them, that might make sense.

and white too, thats the difference.

I sure wish Obama's SS would pay a visit to Beck.

For eight years Fox was all about keeping the country safe from "terrorist". When was the last time you heard anything like that from Beck? The new fear factor for fox is the President. Forget the threat of terrorism and now think about the threat of a black President. That's their message now.

Of course Beck won't take any responsibility for what he said about the President hating white people, because Beck seems to hate black people so I guess he assumes that black people hate him. Well, thanks to what he has been saying lately, they probably do. Not because he's white but because his words are dangerous.

Think Operation Gladio and stay behind militias.

The next big hurdle for our country and it's Constitution is going to be the issue of Free Speech. When does free speech cross the line into 'hate' speech? How do you stop hate speech, which spreads misinformation through the population, incites violent dissension and encourages seditious behavior while at the same time preserving our Constitutional Right to responsible and intelligent free speech and expression? How does the current Administration and those after, deal with this obviously growing problem, courtesy of the GOP, without crapping all over The Constitution like the Bush Administration did? No wonder our system of Government is still referred to as the 'great experiment' even after 233 years.

as long as the other side is able to buy up all the air time and push their lies 24/7.

So we now can see the arc of Beck's thesis this week: He was right to call President Obama an anti-white racist because he is this very moment forming an army of militant black thugs to take over your white neighborhoods and threaten your children and impose a liberal fascist state.

And have sex with white women. Never forget how large that fear looms.

)O(

'Once you go black, you never go back' ;)

The greatest fear of the stunted fundie white boys and their small peni.

"Once you go Vatican, you don't go back again."

Its a good show. I'm glad that someone is willing to call it how it is. Too many revolutionaries in the Obama administration right now.

with Beck when he weeps and wails?

You are silly. And in mortal danger. Beck is not calling it how it is. Beck is their agent and he is setting you up. Don't get on any of his e-mail lists. Murdoch will turn those over to the Obamatrons in a minute and you may be Alex Jones cell mate, my friend.

What does the OA stand for? Over Amped? Overt Ahole?

on the cause and time of death after the EMS pulls his carcass of his couch with Glenn Beck blaring in the foreground.

Lone Star (the National Beer of Texas)
DOA (No DNR order but efforts to recussitate failed.)

Stupid troll.
Hell I WISH there were revolutionaries in the Obama admin...looks like we got a bunch corporate toadies left over from bushco.
I think you ought to be more concerned with you teabaggin assholes becoming the American equivalent of Al-Qaida.
They too, brandish their religion as a weapon.

Less than an hour on.
Please don't foul up the state of Texas with your nick.

Go fill your diapers elsewhere.

Dancing with Delay?

like Larry Summers? Biden (oh please)?

Your critical thinking skills are dead on arrival?

What a shame.

Really enjoy how you rely on ad hominem arguments. Just goes to prove you have your heads so far in the sand that you can't see anything going on around you.

How do you feel about self proclaimed socialist revolutionaries being advisors to the President himself?

What horrible personal story do you have to tell about why you are anti-capitalist?

Social revolutionaries like Zbigniew Brzezinski?

that dude is still insisting he is a part of the dem party

he hasnt been a dem for 10 years

Just because Beck is using footage of Black Panthers doing goofy stuff does not mean that rational people should not be concerned about the activities of fringe groups.

Yes, Beck is drawing bullshit correlations, but at the same time we should keep our eyes open to the possibility of violent movements on all sides. There is far more to fear from right wing militias, but they aren't the only crazy people in town.

Oh say can you Xe...

Glenn, you fucking idiot, there is an army of thugs and it was called Blackwater. Xe now. That is the official private army of gwb and darth vader cheney. They were actually deployed within the United States, dumb ass, and they were the thugs on the streets of New orleans after Katrina.

The unofficial army of thugs is the right wing loony bin that is being stirred up by such treasonous bastards as beck, limbaugh-emphasis on the UGH-malkin, etc.

You fucking idiot! I hope the advertisers will pull all their ads from fix noise and not just the babbling babboon's show.

He just hates anyone who isn't white.
And male.
And rich.
And 'manly'!
And part of the hive-mind.

"You do have to wonder when the honchos at Fox will realize that Glenn Beck may bring in the ratings, but he is inflicting a deep scar on their brand name that will be a long time fading."

As a result of your long and unflagging coverage of all things FOX,
I have come to realize they regard Beck as a star and not a scar.
I believe they are quite content with what he is doing to their brand name. I don't think the "bottom line" for NewsCorp is simply money.

Never thought I would suggest you were overly optimistic, huh?

I actually have been accused of being too kind to these folks on many an occasion.

I've done it so many times, I stopped counting them years ago. Still, maximum respect for Mr. Neiwert even if I do think he sometimes cuts these villains some slack they don't deserve.

When the shit does hit the fan, you can bet FOX will be right up front with a camera.

Its not in the Faux MO to actually do dangerous frontline stuff.

Using your "logic", the only reasonable conclusion we can draw from the frightwingers continual lying about the Obama administration is so that can actually help President Obama enact the policies he's currently pushing.

That's using your reasoning, not mine.

Number of Americans scary black Farrakhan has killed: 0

Number of Americans killed by militant Bush and Cheney: 4500
Number of Iraqi civilians killed by militant Bush and Cheney: Countless

the people they let die in the twin towers through negligence:
2,740 Americans
236 'feriners'

death toll from Katrina, due in large part to the negligence of the Bush misAdministration, more than.
1800 Americans

Might as well throw in the 241 American marines Saint Ronnie got killed in Beruit while we're at it. And let's not forget all the Americans killed and injured by Tim McVeigh, Eric Rudolph, the church shooters, and other conservative while militants. Republicans and their base supporters have gotten far more Americans than all the scary black militants combined.

Pan Face: "Democrat Party!" "Democrat Official!"

I want to see her birth certificate, she looks like a feriner!

her counter tops.

"It is becoming quite clear that religion is at the heart of so many civil wars and international struggles. People seem willing to kill, maim, torture and die for a religious or spiritual belief which moves them to believe that their source of the divine is the only source...Consider: In the name of God, a fatwa against Salman Rushdie. In the name of God, murder in the Balkans. In the name of God, the bombing of the World Trade Center. In the name of God, the siege at Waco, Texas. In the name of God, Hindus and Muslims kill each other in India. In the name of God, bloody warfare between Protestants and Catholics in Ireland. In the name of God, Shi'ites and Sunnis are at each other's throats in Iraq and Iran, as are Arabs and Jews in the Middle East. In the name of God, a doctor is murdered because he believed in a woman's right to choose. In the name of God, what is going on?"
[Shirley MacLaine, quoted in "2000 Years of Disbelief, Famous People with the Courage to Doubt", by James A. Haught, Prometheus Books, 1996]

You don't need religion to do good but it certainly comes in handy to do evil.

He's gotta be laughin his ass off at the evil done in gods name.

That's why you never see Lucifer. He's stays in Hell cause he's got all of "God's people" up here doing his dirty work.

There's your prototype right-wing "SS"....

on FOX, although I had seen him once or twice on CNN some time ago. I have to admit that I had no idea what a dispicable cretin he is. The circular reasoning with no basis in fact bolstered by his two bookend moron guests was too much. I was curious about him because of all the sponsors he has recently lost over his racist remark. I think people like him are seriously dangerous. He is likely inciting some completely ignorant crazy out there. The fact that a program like this is on the air makes me think that advertisers of FOX should be hammered just for advertising on FOX. As long as FOX airs his kind of sick garbage, it isn't enough just for Beck to loose sponsors, it should be the entire network.

it's simple. It's a TV show about fundamentalistovigilantical people and their fun habits. The weirder the show gets, the easier it is for the gubment to track the viewer and list them for what they are. These tubes of sausage don't understand that they are yelling at the wrong people. They are telling the gubment to come and get them, and the gubment is going to do just what they ask.
It's called subversion. It might also be bunched in with those pesky laws about defending and protecting the constitution, and countering those agents of a foreign power seeking to bring about the destruction. Maybe Beck is an agent that is working to bring all these megawits to justice? Rush is. He has bargained his future supply of narcotics and his kind of "vacations" so that the government knows where his followers are at all times. Does anyone think a GOP senator would want to bow to the Hut? Do you think they would let a pimp fire up a group of people that a politician can only fear with an unreasoning paranoia that only a fascist really can fear? Knowing that the one in the crowd that he screwed is out to get him?
Hilarious!

In fact, @ C&L's I usally read about what their saying. So thank you Crooks for all the hard work you do!! I'll never have to watch the 'mudder fu#kers' again!!!!!!

Hey, it's why we do what we do. We hope to save billions of brain cells in the process.

Watching Beck or BillO on video snippets is bad enough. Teh stupid hurts.

I believe I have one brain cell left and I am guarding it with all my might.

If the Republicans ran soley on their accomplishments and vision for the country they would be trounced in every election. That's why they always revert back to their tried and true methods for "winning" elections that has worked for them since Richard Nixon's "southern strategy". Fear, division, lies and driving wedges between the American people.

you forgot the voting machines.

...I also forgot The Supremes, Katherine Harris and brother Jeb.

What the hell?

The 5 Republican appointed anti-democratic election thwarting conservative activist judges

So, the SS is two black men in berets standing around looking semi-bored and a group of guys practicing corny S1W-style moves?

buh

HIS

with decade old footage of a small group of Muslim men playing on a jungle gym set in the desert.

OBL had almost no staff, he hired locals in for the day for the video shoots, that says volumes about how big and scary ALQ really was.

And due to the mysterious reports of the many stolen passports and alive owners of them,, we never really found out who the 19 really were, or who really hired and trained them.

I wanted to make a t-shirt of that album cover with Obama's face on the black planet, but I didn't think I could get it printed because of the copyright issues.

Except, instead of finding the crazy one, you have to find the craziest one. All 3 of these people are irrational. The problem is that millions of Americans tune into Fox and think this is the news, and not just crazy lunatics.

I've just recently finished reading the Turner Diaries, which - as reprehensible as it is - I encourage all progressives to do. You'll find that the book has had a terrifying level of influence on conservative rhetoric - even in the mainstream - in the last 20 years or so.

What's germane here is that Glen Beck is describing more or less exactly what happens in beginning of the book: an out-of-control liberal government, obsessed with "equality" enlists black thugs to terrify or beat the helpless white folk into submission.

This is the book that inspired Timothy McVeigh and two generations of American Nazis (like, actual Nazis. Not the fake ones that want universal health care). If it weren't so unfashionable, I'm willing to bet Beck would be teaching us all how the Jews actually behind it.

It's worth pointing out to anyone and everyone that Beck and others like him are lifting ideas from one of the most vile and violent books ever written in English.

Harold Charles "Hal" Turner, (ex) friend of Hannity.

According to the Associated Press, Hal Turner has exposed through his attorney that he worked for the FBI from 2002 to 2007 as an "agent provocateur" and "his job was basically to publish information which would cause other parties to act in a manner which would lead to their arrest".

Identifying himself as "Hal from North Bergen", Turner became notable in American conservative circles as a frequent caller to WABC radio talk shows hosted by Bob Grant and Sean Hannity.[4] Turner parlayed this fame into a role as the northern New Jersey coordinator for Patrick J. Buchanan's 1992 presidential campaign. He went on to serve as campaign manager for Libertarian Party candidate Murray Sabrin in New Jersey in the 1990s, including a 1997 gubernatorial campaign.[5]

There are forces in the US playing a game, lethal and terminal.

Weather Underground, Black Panthers? What's with all the boogeymen from the 60's? If 40 years from now I'm running around scared of having an ACORN member pop out of my closet please take away my keys.

boogeymen. Take the dreaded "socialism." For people of my generation, who small children at the end of the Cold War, and came into political awareness after the end of it, I think we find all this red baiting frickin' funny. Socialism doesn't have the same connotations to us.

Mid-1800s estimates reported 80,000 slaves owned by Presbyterians, 225,000 by Baptists and 250,000 by Methodists. Anglicans probably owned most of the rest of the nearly 4 million blacks held in serfdom in the United States at the outbreak of the Civil War.

That bloody Civil War was fought, in part, because of the bible and the church. Although there were denominations that spoke out against slavery, with the exception of the Unitarians and the Quakers they were Johnny-come-latelies; freethinkers again led the fight against this fundamental wrong.

Clergy could turn to their God and their bible for justification of slaveholding, and they did.

So let me get this straight because there are black people standing and because some kids say Barack Obama has inspired me to become a lawyer and doctor, Obama is dangerous?

What am I missing I'm confused.

I going to lie down and take what ever he's on.

that C&L FINALLY has a Black Thug to call our own!

:D

The problem is that Beck et al are demagoguing (how do you spell that?!) with a fictional threat, while those guys with assault rifles in Phoenix are already real. This stuff needs to be taken seriously, not giggled at. All it takes is one lunatic; remember Dr. Tiller.

)O(

Demagoging.

It is not just Beck it the whole d... Murdoch's Fox ?news? media...

Murdoch never really ran a news paper or printed honest facts and news but ran his ?new?" Paper/media using the tabloid techniques of his father's mentor William Harmsworth , 1st Viscount Northcliffe.

Harmsworth was an early pioneer of tabloid journalism. Northclliffe bought several failing newspapers and made them into an enormuously profitable chain , primarily by appealing to the popular taste..

So when we see these people reporting or better yet making these statements with no truth or fact to back what they say we know it is coming straight from the horses mouth...

Could someone explain what 'liberal fascism' is to the rest of the unwashed masses? Is that a government where people are left alone to live as they wish, without an oppressive church apparatus to come between the individual and their happiness (within reason, of course)?

A place where people are can work without having to fear for health insurance, or hunger because there is the realization that that State can play a role in individuals achieving the aforementioned happiness.

A place where corporations are liberally medicated, so that their anti-human, psychotic behaviors are kept in check.

Is that what "liberal fascism" is, and if so, why wouldn't anyone want it?

I like that analog.
