It is very hard to watch or listen to the likes of Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Michael Savage, Michele Malkin, Laura Ingraham, Ann Coulter, and especially Rush Limbaugh.
But lately, they are all surpassed by Glenn Beck on Fox News Channel. Watching him makes you feel that he is mentally deteriorating before our eyes. More than ever, he has become a lunatic and an evolving Joseph McCarthy equivalent, loosely using the terms Fascism, Nazism, Socialism, Communism, Liberalism, and yes, Progressivism! 🙂
This moron obviously has no conception of the differences among these “isms”, and the audience who listens to and believes him cannot be rated as any brighter than him.
He now is saying the Rockefeller family is part of this great Fascist-Communist-Socialist–Progressive etc conspiracy, and spends time on his show claiming there are symbols of all these ideologies all over Rockefeller Plaza in New York City.
What can one say? This man is a total lunatic, but he is also starting to label those he disagrees with as being another Hitler, Mussolini, Castro, etc. And of course, Barack Obama is a “racist”, according to Beck, who fails to look in the mirror and see the “real” racist!
Can this man really believe this propaganda he spews forth on his show? If he does, then he is truly certifiable. If he does not, which is certainly more likely, then he is the new demagogue–the new Joseph McCarthy.
That means he can do real damage to the reputation of innocent people, as McCarthy did, and can inspire fear and paranoia among many followers, as McCarthy did.
That means he can divide the American people in an ugly, despicable way, dangerous to the stability of the nation in the present and the future, and that means ultimately, that Glenn Beck is dangerous.
Many sponsors have broken with his show, realizing the damage he has done and the danger he represents. Yes, we all believe in freedom of speech, but seriously, he represents a “clear and present danger”, and should be removed from the air as a menace to our country. Let him rant and rave in his bathroom, not over the nation’s airwaves! 🙁
It is sad, most educated people no mater what party they are from realize that Glenn Beck has some kind of mental disorder. The problem is most of our country is not educated and if Glenn Beck tells them that if they buy stock in enron after the collapse and they will gain millions they would believe him. I do not know what is going on in his mind to say that the rockefeller familiy are fascists. Coming from him this isnt surprising though concidering he has always talked about how much he dislikes liberals but yet he named his new book “Common Sence” after a book by the biggest liberal in history Mr. Thomas Pain.
