Beck compares car dealership closures to Nazis; warns "Gang, at some point, they're going to come for you"

Now you just insulted idiots.

If he quoted it accurately, he'd have to note that it mentions the Nazis taking away the communists and the trade unionists. He can't have his ignorant listeners hearing that, especially since he's attacking the unions in this very clip.

Although there are some varients of the poem about, its originator Pastor Niemoller said that it was...

"In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;
And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;
And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;
And then... they came for me... And by that time there was no one left to speak up."


Of course Beck also erroneously conflates a combination of corporations + government + trade unions as fascism, conveniently omitting the fact that one of Hitler's first acts in power was to disband the unions.

Slippery slope, though. O'Reilly will see it as an opportunity to sue Colbert for the same thing. Then Dana Carvey may go after Bill O'Reilly for stealing his bit.
