Too funny. I'm sure in the back of his mind he admires McVeigh for sticking it to the man, the Clinton administration.

2. They have always admired McVeigh
In their minds, he did what they were too "cowardly" to do.

Their excuse was the whole Koresh/Reno/FBI thing. Now I guess it's the birth certificate and health care "socialization". They are sick fucks who only "love" the country when they are in charge.

13. Don't like Janet Reno for other reasons...
Nonetheless, those kooks needed to be put in their place, as do all far-right cults.

6. Actually, that's NOT funny. He has now openly invoked McVeigh's name. Soon enough ........
...... using the name in conversation will be acceptable. And that can lead to one crazy person becoming obsessed and then acting out.

Beck should be arrested and charged with inciting violence. This is not "entertainment".

9. That's wishful thinking.
I really wish Beck's show could be shut down and he would be charged with inciting violence. It's already known he's trying to incite a race war. In reality it's a bit hard to prosecute someone like that unless they openly come out and tell listeners to commit violent acts.

11. I guess he's afraid that some gung-ho natural born right winger...
like GI Joe Lieberman or Deputy Queen Sarah of the Great White North might fly off the handle and invade the entire middle east some night after he fires them up with his toxic bullshit.

Who's your Daddy Glen...I'm betting it would be this guy..."Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf"
