Nope Beatles.

Is trolling the same as stupidity?

The more worrisome part is that the guy believes everything Beck says to be true...much like many believed every word of the current CIC to be true...much like many believed the former CIC was honest and forthcoming....

Please cut and paste the relevent damaging sections. This is nothing but an opinion piece by Dana Milbank. All factual quotes indicate that Beck actually advocates peacful conflict resolution.

This is simply more evidence supporting my contention in this thread.

I did check and you are correct, there was a relationship with Brian Wilson but it wasn't like the Beatles.

I didn't have time to go digging for quotes directly, but this is from a blog that quotes research done on Beck from Dana Millbank of the Washington Post:

'According to Dana Milbank of the Washington Post, some of Beck's favorite phrases include: "The war is just beginning . . .. Shoot me in the head if you try to change our government . . .. There is a coup going on . . .. Grab a torch! . . . Drive a stake through the heart of the bloodsuckers . . .. They are taking you to a place to be slaughtered . . .. They are putting a gun to America's head . . .. Hold these people responsible."

Did he say to shoot the people at the Tides Foundation? No. He sure wasn't telling them to solve problems by working within the system either. With power comes responsibility. It's time he assumes some.

Glenn Beck is talking from both sides of his mouth. On the one hand he is telling people that organizations are destroying America, and a thread, and brainwashing your children, yet they should be restrained and non violent. WTF

Is this what it says if you play the Beatles White Album backwards?

That's just it. He tells people that the government (or whoever) is coming to get them and destroy our democratic freedoms, and then he plays innocent when vulnerable people believe him. I can't find the quotes, but I've WATCHED HIM talk about how Americans have to protect their rights to bear arms in case we have to fight the government.

Like I said--this isn't a left or right thing. It's about using the power of your words responsibly. It holds true for both sides of the isle.
