Red Alert: Fox "News" Launches Comrade Update
Friday, February 6, 2009 at 9:41
Part-madman, part-buffoon, all-shouting Glenn Beck of Fox put out a classic commentary on Wednesday on the Obama "Road to Socialism", the first stop on the highway to "Communism".
Evidence? Health care for children, capping the salaries at $500,000 of executives whose companies have been bailed out by the Federal Government, union card checks.
Apart from the basic fact that Glenn Beck wouldn't know the real meaning of socialism if Karl Marx, Eugene Debs, and the Swedish economy hit him upside the head with a collective 2x4, this is quite good fun: "These people may not be taking us on the same road that Fascist dictators took the rest of the world a long time ago, but they're using the same tactics and the same propaganda. Our very country is at stake."

This is fantastic. It's my first experience of Glenn Beck. Rational guy. Fair and balanced, you might say
The guy is definitely irritating and annoying, but at least finally some media is starting to say enough is enough of putting up with this crap.
