Anyone up for helping with a Glenn Beck project?
I'm looking for clips/transcripts in which he spews his typical speech full of hate and fear, not about Obama or politicians necessarily, but about those of us who are progressive and liberal.

Clips of him essentially dissing our worldview: having empathy, compassion...seeing the necessity of promoting The Common Good and progress...that sort of thing.

;)

There is a back story to this, and I'm getting something together to share with you guys by tomorrow, but would greatly appreciate help gathering examples of his "worldview" and how it great contrasts with ours.

Maybe there are sites already devoted to this? If so, if you can point me in that direction, I'd appreciate it.

:hi:

1. Sorry, I have a weak stomach where Clown Blecch is concerned
This looks like a good place to start, however:

14. Exactly. Go there. I can't go clicking around giving Glenn lots of hits.
If we all go clicking around looking for Glenn Beck quotes, that may make him seem to have a renewed burst of popularity.

Media Matters is a great resource.

3. I can give you a K&R - but I'm afraid this research will have to be done
by people who are much stronger than I. I can't stomach that weirdo. :hi:

8. Strange...your post is still 'underwater' where recs are concerned
I recced it, and it's still at zero. At least more than one somebody's got a problem with compiling Glenn Beck's idiocy? Un-fucking-believable!

10. I'm not sure you were first
as I probably recced it minutes earlier, and it was still below zero. Things that make you go 'hmmmm.' Good to see that adults are prevailing.

13. Time for tar and feathers for this idiot...
matter of fact, since none are headed for prison...maybe we really should bring back the return of tar and feathers.
