But guys like Beck, with his hyperactive talk and innuendo about fearing for the country, wanting to save the country, "taking action, what you can do", drawing on chalkboards, etc. (go watch a tape or two of his show) puts that type of "fringe" mindset into the mainstream as if it's acceptable, usual, normal. Look at what many Republicans are gladly telling American citizens - that they need to fear death panels, that grandma will be killed by the Obama government's health plan. Outright lies, for god's sake. I think it's very dangerous, to tell people their democratically-elected government is a direct threat to their lives.
The Dems have been doing this for years. Beck never called anyone to arms. He actually warns against associating with any idiots who want to take up arms against our country. Ballots not Bullets. It's still frikkin America.
