Beck's rally today reminds me of back in the day in 1926

When the KKK marched there. I imagine it seemed they were very powerful and would never be destroyed. Today's teabaggers are just not wearing their sheets and they're pissed off because they can't lynch that uppity President. We will always have these people in the world.



bad spelling and grammar

2. You have to look at what they are saying.
Beck, or anyone can say good things, then add in bad stuff.

One bad strand ruins the cloth.

And then the good is to try and get people to do the bad. Many people do that. Some try to do good, and do a little bad, but some falsely say good stuff so they can get people to do bad, or so they can rationalize bad themselves.

There is a difference and it is in the heart.

3. They like using code language
For example, the KKK always talked about honor and pledging honor and keeping honor. Just like Beck does. Restoring honor is KKK speak.

4. They say good things like a serial killer uses a sheet of paper
to write his threats on. Code.

Another fascist who liked to wrap his political "philosophy" in religious messages. And like Beck, his philosophy was little more than reverence for the super wealthy and a commitment to unregulated capitalism.

8. I see the same thing...
and of course have the same feeling about today's rally.


How much ignorance can this country stand? How much bigotry and hate, wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross??
