I watched some Glenn Beck tonight.
Never saw him before except in clips on MSNBC.

He had a couple of "experts" on to discuss the "coming revolution." They were talking about the possibility of total collapse of order in this country and Beck kept asking what a person could do to act in a positive manner preparing for this eventuality. He said that each person must decide to be in control of his/her destiny and take steps now.

Geez.

1. "Buy gold!" That's his answer. Buy it from him or his advertizers.

5. I thought that electing Republicans
would prevent the Revolution. Are the wingnuts going to revolt anyway? I'm confused. :crazy:

10. no it isn't the wingnuts who are going to revolt
It is Americans, period. It will come with the general breakdown of society. He said. Americans are not likely to take to the streets except if everything breaks down.

7. Does he hawk that freeze-dried food or whatever that crap is on his TV show too?
I catch bits of his radio show on my way to class through the week. It seems to be nothing but a non-stop informercial for GOLD! and some kind of food that's you're supposed to eat after the apocalypse.

9. Which revolution is that?
In the one I have in mind, Beck gets to join his NAZI idols on the gallows.
