Beck on Egypt #2

Here's a very good post on Glenn Beck from NoMoreMrNiceBlog: Beck's Poison

This....

Basically, we've allowed Beck and others to turn a bloc of U.S. citizens into exact analogues of the most paranoid Islamist anti-Semites -- you know, the people who think literally every Jew on the planet is actively involved in a global Zionist conspiracy to destroy Islam. We mock those people, but Beck's viewers are exactly like those people.

...fits nicely with an earlier tnb post repeated here.

Tuesday Night Buzz: Beck on Egypt

This quote from Beck....

BECK: I understand that, but what you're not taking into account is that that is what the average person thinks, just like the average person on the street of -- of Cairo thinks they're swept up in some freedom movement. It is not about freedom. It is being orchestrated by the Marxists, communists and primarily also the Muslim Brotherhood.

BECK: I understand that, but what you're not taking into account is that that is what the average person thinks, just like the average TEA-PARTY person on the street of -- of DC thinks they're swept up in some freedom movement. It is not about freedom. It is being orchestrated by the BIG BUSINESS, CONSERVATIVES and primarily also the FOX NEWS NETWORK.
