On his May 25 Fox News show, Glenn Beck went on a tear about “global governance,” kicking things off with a series of quotes -- from a progressive blogger referencing “paranoia about a global takeover,” from a 1997 statement by former United Nations official Gustave Speth, from the U.N.’s definition of “global governance,” and from a 1976 U.N. statement on private land ownership.
"Interestingly, all of those quotes also appeared in a May 22 column by Henry Lamb. Lamb is the chairman of something called Sovereignty International, which “focuses on threats to national sovereignty in public policies, international treaties and agreements, and in educational and cultural trends.” He has also published a book called The Rise of Global Governance.
And then there are the two words that say so much about him: WorldNetDaily columnist. That’s right -- Beck plucked his global governance research from the right-wing, birther-obsessed WND. (Then again, perhaps Beck was merely flattered by the opening of Lamb’s column: “Hooray for Glenn Beck! Right out there in front of God and everybody, he talks about global governance as a real and present danger.”)"
