Glenn Beck Derangement Syndrome

MSNBC must be quietly thankful for Glenn Beck and other conservative luminaries. I'm not sure the leftist pundits would have anything to talk about if not for smearing Beck and his ilk. I can only gather that they have nothing of intellectual weight to discuss so they sit around and think about Glenn Beck and how he is effing up the leftist radical agenda.

I've watched Beck's shows. Every thing he discusses he backs up with quotes and video. I'm not sure how you can dispute that evidence, and the interesting thing is MSNBC does not have the intelligence to even try. Their response is like Joe Scarbourough's recent observation that Beck is “losing it before our eyes”. What is it about Beck and FoxNews that twists the leftists up in knots? Why can't they simply ignore the channel if it bothers them so much? MSNBC seems to exists solely to watch what FoxNews does, like Media Matters. It's astonishing that they have nothing original to discuss.  Let me tell you what they will discuss next week: They think FoxNews lies and Glenn Beck is crazy. They don't have an intellectual fact to back this up but this is what they will tell their few hundred thousand listeners.

What I think is that the leftists KNOW that Beck is correct. They are scared that someone with media weight is uncovering their agenda. The right is pushing back like never before. They never saw the Tea Party coming. They figured that once Obama came to office that a new Progressive movement would sweep the country, and the world, with little opposition or interest. They cannot understand why conservatives are not sitting on their couches watching NASCAR and eating venison stew while they succumb to the radical takeover of the U.S.

Beck is a product of the people of this country waking up and deciding enough is enough with the radical takeover. If you don't follow statism then you are racist. If you support limited government then you are greedy. If you aren't politically correct then you are a bigot. The leftists have plenty of ways to smear the right yet seem to have few means to intellectually debate the issue.

What I would like is for someone to honestly take on Beck and the points he makes on his TV show. I would like for the leftists to specifically state where he has it wrong. I have yet to discover anyone with the political honestly on the left to take on that challenge. What they are reduced to is 4th grade name calling and Rules for Radicals. The louder the left gets, the smaller they seem. I get more and more interested in Beck the more he irritates the leftists. If there wasn't something to his arguments then the leftists would simply ignore him.  As it is, he must really be hitting a nerve. I like that.
