      Funny how Beck has Nazi memorabilia just laying around...

      Guess there's an empty spot on his den wall!

        I suppose his home entertainment consists of the Leni Riefensthal Collection, all on DVD...

          You think so? I'm thinking "Red Dawn". I always assumed a name like "Riefenstahl" would make Beck grunt with rage trying to pronounce it, causing him to eventually yell "LIBRUL ELITIST!", fling the DVD across the room and cross his arms petulantly.

      So calling one's opposition physically unattractive likens one to a Nazi? Huh. Glenn, what were you doing a few hours ago?

      Hey, Glenn? Maybe if these idiots weren't shouting that Obama was "violating the Constitution" and asking people like Specter if "he's ever read the Koran" and asking why Obama hasn't "produced his birth certificate," etc., we might take them a bit more seriously.

      And if they actually ASKED QUESTIONS, instead of using microphones to give incoherent rants and try to win themselves fifteen minutes of fame on Fox, we might allot them a bit of respect.

      I'm not holding my breath waiting for either to happen, however.

      So the media is calling for their enslavement and to starve them while working them to death, causualy applying a bullet here and a blunt instrument there.
      Gotta be honest and admit I somehow missed these up front messages from our dearly depleted media.
      Putting my head under a bucket of sand, or watching the national news. It is a hard choice.

      Funny, I have this inconvenient memory in my head of a republican congressman who derided Americans as a "nation of complainers" during the past election cycle. The tea parties amounted to little more than shameless corporate astroturfing, and the fact that this is obvious to everyone but Glenn just burns him up inside.
