1. Go vote at this poll...
"What do you think about Beck holding a rally on the anniversary of King's famous speech?"

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2010/08/26/2010-08-26_glenn_beck_fox_news_host_slammed_for_rally_on_martin_luther_king_jrs_dream_speec.html

Personally...it's offensive to me.

9. Thats exactly what I've been saying
almost did it in front of mom (eeek) because I'm so irritated about it. Think Fox is sending alot of their fans over to msnbc's comment section because it's loaded with horseshit. Beck is for Peace.. Beck is helping bring God back to America. Beck is love. BS. What Country am I in? Iran?? or Cuba??

14. beck is doing a stunt for ratings. that's all this is. and it's getting him
noticed. and they are talking about him all over the tv. trouble is next time it will have to be a bigger stunt. and a bigger one after that. he's going to have to keep ramping it up to get attention.

7. It is wrong, but good can only be used for good.
So in the long run, I think it will work out for the better. Although not sure how it will effect the individuals involved, hopefully people will read what MLK said in his speeches, and think on that.

Although that might be finding the bright side of things.

And that was a great comment from Al Sharpton.

12. I like this part of the article:
Beck claimed his rally will be nonpolitical and is hoping his crowd will surpass the estimated tens of thousands who joined the 9/12 Taxpayers march last year that fueled the Tea Party movement.

:wtf:

If it's not political, then
what the hell is it?!!

And, doesn't the second part of that sentence sort of contradict the first?

3. Glen Beck and Sarah Palin
The Five Millions Multitude watched awestruck as the Prophet Beck walked hand-in-hand with His Disciple, Our Lady Sarah Palin, down the entire length of the Reflecting Pool ON the waters thereof. Hallelujah, I have seen the glory of the Prophet!

6. And another comment...
Glenn Beck's "rally" is the FIRST GATHERING of the Fascist Right. It will be superceded by more "rallies", marches, and demonstrations against the "new jew"--the Muslims. Germany saw it, and it will start here.

Fox Noose, the Voice of Hate, with its several Hate-Mongers, Beck being the leader now and Limbaugh next with Hannity last will pummel the air ways with innendos, lies, distortions, and personal hate-filled attacks until they stir up rage among the idiotic violent sociopaths.

They will begin to target non-political citizens with direct accusations to create fear to shut them up.

They don't "want their country back", THEY WANT TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY FROM US AND SUPPRESS EVERYTHING GOOD AND DECENT------ALL IN THE NAME OF CHRISTIANITY.

No, I am not a Muslim! I am a person who sees what these rightwingers are up to. DON'T YOU?

8. and even more anger...
If I were African Americana I would be so pissed at Glen Beck I would be screaming off the rooftops! The jerk has the temerity to say he is taking the memory of MLK away from the blacks and making himself a substitute ! He has the sociopathic balls to say that MLK is now himself!

And that Palin trash! How much did he pay her to be there----AND WHERE IS THE MONEY COMING FROM?

13. Hey
MLK was a spokesperson for all Americans.

Can you be just as pissed as a white American? Can you scream off the rooftops as a white American pissed by the way Beck has treated the memory of MLK?
