WINGNUTS

I have no new revelation. Beck is a "wingnut," the same as the MSNBC' Keith Ohberman, recently and briefly fired for contributing to a political candidate. He was smart with his rally but fits exactly in the category of talk show shouters of being a classic "wingnut." Playing to an element of fellow wingnuts. What those of us who try to be objective and move toward the center have to do is challenge this sort of stuff. Somebody told me that Beck apologized for calling the president a racist. I hope so.

Yesterday, I heard this lady, must have been a hundred, really "putting it on him," as we say in South (do we say that)? Anyway, she was saying awful things about the president: racist, Muslim, ignorant, really! My view about "wingnut" behavior is that by by being so bigoted, she is disrespecting the country. As President, he is the symbol of America and really saying all these awful things is "bad mouthing America. 60 million people voted against the President but he is still our president and I get infuriated when people talk bad about the country. We live in a great country and if someone doesn't directly threaten the President, they can say anything. Just because she can say racist things doesn't mean you should. There are many places where a guy like Beck would be in jail. He is a f...ING Philistine. And, now that many "wingnuts" will be in Congress, will be interested to see if they can get anything done.
