ANGGEERRRRR

So, I've been fuming/questioning/self-enlightening/rioting lately about all sorts of different topics. I've had somewhat of a rebirth over the past two months that has reinvigorated my will to live and my will to fight. So, I'm going to blog about them. Because even if no one else cares, I care.

Today's Anger Segment goes to:
GLENN BECK
No surprise, right?
Well, this evening in the cafeteria, I was entertained by the incessant blathering of one Glenn Beck on the television screens. We have lobbied the caf to change the channel to something more neutral, but they refuse. Anyways, Glenny-boy is still suffering from Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity, which was an obvious thumbing-of-noses at his Rally to Restore Honor, tea-partiers, and Fox News in general. I heard a piece he did on a "reporter" who went to the rally to ask a specific question to the participants. The question was this: Is Obama Keynesian?
Ok, so, obviously this was a deliberate way to make people think Keynesian means Kenyan.
Dick move for 3 main (and a trillion additional) reasons:
-I'm pretty sure that the only people who are aware of John Maynard Keynes, let alone Keynesian economics, are people who have college degrees and have studied political science or economics.
-It's not wrong in assuming that a reporter would be asking about/mispelling 'Kenyan' because of the precedence set by conservatives/tea partiers in being historically inaccurate, factually wrong, and lacking in the skill of spelling.
-Keynesian economics is a pretty practical and well-known and was practiced heavily by GEORGE W. BUSH.

Of course, Beck used this footage to say that the left and all fans of Stewart are stupid and stoned. What a fucking jackass. Your fans have cited you are a reason why they engage in terrorist-like violence, in completely misunderstanding government and American history, and having no concept of what actual 'news' is.
You are a fraud. You are a hate monger. Shut the hell up.
