Beck's website The Blaze reminds me of the Nazi propaganda that I saw at Dachau
The exhibits of the propaganda campaign waged by Hitler/Goebbels when Nazi party was trying to take power were frightening. I could never understand how a populous could have fallen for such hate/fear mongering hook line and sinker. When I see what beck did at the rally on Saturday and what he is doing with this website now, the parallels are truly uncanny. This time, its directed against african americans, muslims and progressives instead of jewish people and Gypsies.

Don't take Beck and his ilk for granted.

2. Since you've already soiled your beautiful mind by going there...
:)

Did you happen to notice anything about "Constitution Classes" in the dung pile? I heard a couple of mentions of this over the past couple of days... see anything? It scares me to think this kook could have anything to do with classes in anything!

3. No, I don't see anything like that, but who knows.
I heard rumor that he wanted to start "Beck University" or something like that...

5. I thought he did that a couple months ago.
I thought he had classes on the Net. I may be wrong, but don't think so.

6. It just looks like a lame imitation of HuffPo to me
With far less content.

Maybe he should do 'conservative celebrity' news. But then again, that wouldn't fill up much space.

7. It looks like he's trying to make
another version of Slate or Salon.

8. Thank you. I'm paying close attention to this very unbalanced person.
Tonight on his show he was showing his crowds applauding MLK, and showing clips from Sharpton's gatherings to show his viewers who the 'true peacemakers' are.

Reclaim civil rights indeed.
