Beck is a Four-Letter Word

Beck is a living, breathing four-letter word.
On Aug. 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered one of this nation’s – perhaps the world’s – most inspiring speeches.
He began that speech:
“I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.”
And he urged his audience:
“In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.”
And he made his refrain that has become so familiar to Americans: “I have a dream today.”
He said:
“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’"
Dr. King spoke to the throngs gathered in front of the Lincoln Memorial of his dream that:
“With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.”

And now Glenn Beck has planned a rally at the Lincoln memorial on the 47th anniversary of Dr. King’s momentous speech. Beck – yes, Beck is a four-letter word – has called for a rally called Refounding America. For Beck to have the unmitigated gall to hold a rally on the day Dr. King gave his speech is an insult to everybody who believes in what Dr. King stood for and fought for.
Compare Dr. King’s words above with Beck’s words below.
"This president I think has exposed himself over and over again as a guy who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture ... I'm not saying he doesn't like white people, I'm saying he has a problem. This guy is, I believe, a racist."

"I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I'm wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it. ... No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out. Is this wrong? I stopped wearing my What Would Jesus -- band -- Do, and I've lost all sense of right and wrong now. I used to be able to say, 'Yeah, I'd kill Michael Moore,' and then I'd see the little band: What Would Jesus Do? And then I'd realize, 'Oh, you wouldn't kill Michael Moore. Or at least you wouldn't choke him to death.' And you know, well, I'm not sure."
"When I see a 9/11 victim family on television, or whatever, I'm just like, 'Oh shut up' I'm so sick of them because they're always complaining."

"The only [Katrina victims] we're seeing on television are the scumbags."

"I think there is a handful of people who hate America. Unfortunately for them, a lot of them are losing their homes in a forest fire today." –on why people who lost their homes in forest fires in California had it coming.

"I have been nervous about this interview with you because what I feel like saying is, 'Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies. ... And I know you're not. I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way." –interviewing Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), the first Muslim U.S. congressman

"Al Gore's not going to be rounding up Jews and exterminating them. It is the same tactic, however. The goal is different. The goal is globalization...And you must silence all dissenting voices. That's what Hitler did. That's what Al Gore, the U.N., and everybody on the global warming bandwagon [are doing]."
