The same hysteria and pushing of "we are being persecuted.."


Edit to add... just one little example of that thought process by Beck

1. The human race has produced way too many of these types.

and we as a society have paid dearly throughout history. We never learn.

2. Yes we have... and it just keeps happening again and again..

3. How 'bout Chuck Manson?

No. Scratch that. He's much more coherent than Beck!

4. At least he doesn't live in your state and you were not haunted by

listening to him as a teenager. He was a local DJ here in Connecticut in the early 90's on an popular FM station. When I saw Glenn Beck on CNN I was like, I know that guy! He was a wacko then too and one of the DJs at an AM station once punched him out. He had a bad rep in CT and was pretty much disliked personally for being an asshole.
