You don't think being terrified of WW3 because of unrest in a poor country is over the top? Because that is what Beck sells. Read the transcript...no assumption there. I think anyone sane would argue that these fears are irrational.
Sure "he" sells fear, the problem with what he's selling is it's entirely possible.
This is a think tank I'm sure you are familiar with. Why don't you read some truly unbiased facts and get to know what's happening in the middle east... or stay in your cave while calling everyone else sheep. What you call fear I call awareness. You don't have to be afraid to be aware. To ignore events and situations isn't bravery, but stupidity.
I'd bet you are a fan of Mencken right? Those higher ground quotes about mans fears spattered with elitist condemnation are right up your alley.

What the left doesn't understand is that it's not fear that makes a coward or a hero, but it's what you DO with that fear. Being aware and prepared is the hero part, being told what to think and burying your head is the cowardly way.
Bad news for ya but the righties here talk like that all the time here, so I guess they are also emotionally fragile according to You, or do you select only someone you consider left leaning to admonish?

You mean it's a package deal? Nice, so because others in here do it, it's ok for the left to do the same. Typical reasoning. As for admonishing. If someone said something so blantantly biased about anyone I'd jump in just the same. Common sense isn't left or right.
And the truth has no agenda. Why do you think the left lies so much? They have an agenda to hide. There is no 2 ways about that.
When people have lost the moral high ground and their agendas fail the only thing left is to attack character. It's the only thing they have left. It's a sad time in any case.
I see that there are still people here calling Beck delusional and paranoid. I guess they don't watch him like they say they do. If they did, they would have seen this. Are those same people going to call the sources where he got his info from paranoid and psychotic?
Sometimes the truth hurts people...they cant face reality.
The real world scares them!
