Waitwaitwait. So what is the big, bad issue here? Mr. Beck likes this band. He agrees with what they seem to be saying — their libertarian political stance appears to reflect his own, only from a European viewpoint. So he says as much to the audience of his radio program, the third most listened-to in the country.  What is he, crazy? How could he do such a terrible, totally insane thing? *sigh* Those awful conservatives. You'd never catch anyone in the mainstream media doing anything so scandalous.  I mean, suppose …well let's say Oprah Winfrey, what if Oprah were to come on her show and tell the audience how much she liked somebody's music, or their book, or something? Can you imagine the living nightmare in store for the victim of such a lunatic scheme? Well fortunately we needn't worry about Oprah pulling that kind of evil shenanigan, and you know why? Because she's not crazy. And how do we know that? Because she voted for Obama, that's how. And because she would never, ever use the word “golly”. Gee, what a fine American. Unlike that nutjob Beck. I mean, did you hear that he named his latest book Arguing With Idiots? Can you beLIEVE it? And what's more, this piece of… work is available now, on Amazon, and wherever fine books are sold! And that's like, everywhere!! But you didn't hear it from ME.

Thank you for un-making the talking point above yours. Beck said “if the spoon is telling you to hurt someone, don't listen to it.” You said you wish there was a network exec like Dunaway's character in Network, that might suggest Beck's assassination. *cough* Pardon me? Sounds like the real bull-goose loony is you. I'm jus' sayin'.
