Glenn Beck is really trying hard to explain his racists beliefs, as not racist.

He says he knows what Martin Luther King Jr. REALLY meant. :eyes:

Glenn, Glenn, Glenn...

4. It does if you watch him backpedal on why he hates minorities.

Just gotta watch the man in action.

5. That's a bit of a stretch.

To think Rex was saying that that statement was the sum total of Beck's racist beliefs. It seems pretty clear to me that he was saying the weird, xenophobic, crypto-Nazi Beck is pretending he's not racist, even going so far as to say that he understands what MLK was saying. Which is a bit of a stretch in itself, knowing what Beck has said about African-Americans and non-northern European types like himself.

7. Thanks, you said it better than I could.

It just makes me wonder how Glenn can do such things with a straight face.

10. I don't get how anyone's first reaction to what you said is 'what's racist about that?'

If you know we're talking about Glenn Beck, you've got to know we're talking about a racist.

12. True, it is like knowing certain things about Rush or Hannity.

And just assuming everyone here knows what I'm talking about. To anyone reading this, if you don't know who Glenn, Rush or Hannity are - you must not be reading threads on DU!

2. Bizarro World

Up is down, green is red. This makes perfect Beck-sense.

6. Equality for all, Glenn states that King wanted black people to have

equal rights and not More rights than white people, which is what they have right now with entitlement programs (Glenn's words not mine).

11. We switched to Dishnet and now I get Amy, Laura and Thom
