Surprsingly, Glenn Beck does not like being the target of hate

Apparently a truck driver ripped into Beck while the two of them were standing in line at Wendys, with the trucker tagging the right-wing talker as a "racist bigot." And then he railed about how conservatives like Beck had destroyed the country.
On his blog, Beck lamented the level of hate the trucker displayed. But, as FAIR reminds us, Beck is pretty familiar when in comes to trafficking in that kind of thing for a living:
I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I'm wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it. No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out--is this wrong?
Wow. Someone doesn't understand the difference between reality and comedy. *Shocker!*
I'm sure you can find better stuff than that to harp on regarding Glenn... This is just weak.
Check the MMfa records for Beck as you like him.
Moore's been insulted and threatened by many conservatives. This is just more good ol good ol conservative humor then? Standard wingnut response if someone finds a statement offensive. "It was just a joke." Some warning that whats being said is a joke might help. Gives one time to run away.
