Old is still new and history goes in circles and in the end, nothing actually changes.

I think he just acts that way for ratings, and as a way to motivate idiots to vote the way he wants. Dude used to be on CNN.

Any self-respecting communist would never involve himself in the current establishment.

I would say that he's just an attention whore....if he didn't have the power he did. He is using Twitter to have his fans dig up dirt, some of it fabricated, against Obama administration people, working with lobbyists to make the claim that being pro-environment is in and of itself communistic, and of course is exploiting 9/11 for political gain, particularly in an effort to curb ANY health care reforms, not just the ones that are in a gray area. Then we have his followers who are stalking out national guard headquarters with assault rifles and cameras who cite Glenn Beck as a motivator. This is not just your average attention whore/whiner. This is a dangerous man. -CSM

^ in comments, not checking how legit it is:

Glenn Beck: "You know, it took me about a year to start hating the 9/11 victims’ families. It took me about a year. Um, and I had such compassion for them and I really, you know, I wanted to help them, and I was behind — let’s give them money, let’s get them started, and all of this stuff. And I really didn’t — all the 3,000 victims’ families, I don’t hate all of them, I hate about, probably about ten of them. But when I see 9/11 victim family, you know, on television, or whatever, I’m just like, ‘Oh, shut up.’ I’m so sick of them. Because they’re always complaining. And we did our best for them. And again, it’s only about ten."

I figured I may as well bring this up, lol.

Hometown's honor for Glenn Beck spurs controversy - CNN.com

Apparently in Mount Vernon, WA (Beck's hometown), the mayor's making September 26th "Glenn Beck Day".

Apparently the mayor is a big fan. I doubt most of the residents of Mt. Vernon like this idea. -CSM

Communists are so evil. They believe in treating people equally. Oh my god, that's so terrible.

^^Yeah, the article said that, I think. He probably just wants to give him props for being famous. Maybe. Could be a fan.

I think America stopped worrying about communists when they got worried about terrorists. *rimshot*

White supremacists at Glenn Beck's rally. Not NSFW, but still very disturbing people (although one of the images depicts Obama as a Khoisan bushman). -CSM
