Glenn Beck and the Assault on Historical Memory | Tim Wise

To be angry with Glenn Beck would be easy. So too, to conjure an ungenerous spirit of contempt for his acolytes who came from around the country to attend Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally this Saturday, would hardly take Herculean effort. His demented narcissism and their cult-like devotion to the man who once said he was just “a rodeo clown,” to whom one should hardly pay attention — but who now suggests he is on a mission from God to save America — are both worthy of the highest derision.

"... a historical perversion of such galaxial proportions as to call into question his very sanity." 

Saw a recap of the event and it played out like one of those The Outer Limits episodes where the country is run by a dictator. In this case, a Fox News puppet.
