The underlying argument is that all things bad are an outgrowth of "progressive" thought.
Oh for cryin' out loud, not that bullshit again! Right, Hitler advocating Gay Marriage or chaining himself to a tree to protest logging in Spotted Owl habitats? I would think the right leaning folks would be insulted that Beck actually thinks that THEY are that stupid. Maybe they are?

WTF?

Guys, the numbers are meaningless unless you know the scale. Was that the Mensa test?

What really counts is where you fall on a standard distribution, e.g., Gaussian distribution popularly knwwon as the bell curve.

The testers put me just inside the 99th percentile and I still think Beck is a puppet dancing on Geppetto's (Murdoch) strings.

BTW that and $5 will get you a latte at Starbucks

Ricght wingers are easilty confused and it is the Socialism part of the name that fools them, they were fascists plain and simply and that is almost as far right as the Republicans.

I just found out what the next installments of Beck's documentary series are:

Tojo's Imperial Japan: Liberalism with a Slant
The Ku Klux Klan: Liberalism Run Amok
Mein Kampf: Ghost-Written by Karl Marx?
Joseph McCarthy: A Closet Liberal?
The Stars and Bars: Emancipation's Symbol

Anybody else have any other viable topics for "Beck's Revisionist History?"
