Media Matters Attacks Beck – Ignores Progressive Roots Of The Klan And Holocaust
by Andrew MarcusMedia Matters is attempting to attack Glenn Beck over his exposé of Progressive violence and crimes against humanity in the previous century.
Media Matters can spend all year trying to deny the blood soaked roots of the progressive movement, but that’s a little like Democrat Robert Byrd arguing that there was no such thing as slavery, let alone the KKK.
Case in point, one topic Media Matters and other progressive groups don’t want to deal with is how Progressive Eugenics inspired the Master Race holocaust of WWII.
I have covered this here before, and the facts are truly damning as well as irrefutable.
To see just how involved the American Progressive movement was in the global effort to murder the “inferior” in the name of their junk science of Eugenics, we dare you to click through to this Google Books page for Black’s book, War Against The Weak. The link highlights the word Progressive everywhere it appears in the text.
And before the folks at Media Matters try to destroy the source of the detailed research which reveals how America’s Progressive movement collaborated with the Nazis to commit genocide, we would simply like to wish you good luck with that.
I would like to officially challenge the folks at Media Matters, and other progressive intellectual sink-holes, to address their movement’s role in the Nazi genocide.
The Neo-Progressives might do themselves a service by admitting the damage their predecessors have done, and trying to make amends for their horrors. Denying these documented crimes is the same as excusing them.
I would also like to challenge American Jews and Blacks, the main targets of Progressive Eugenics, by asking how they can call themselves Progressives given what the movement has unapologetically done to their populations.
Progressive intellectuals inspired and fed the ideology of Nazis and the Klan.
Is a Jewish Progressive any different than a Jewish Nazi? If so, how?
Is a black Progressive any different than a black Klansman? If so, how?
If those questions strike you as painful, they should. This topic demands some tough questions.
By no means am I concluding that Progressive Jews and Blacks are Nazis or Klansmen. Of course they are not. I am absolutely suggesting they have not a clue about the movement they have signed onto. How could they be aware of what Progressivism unapologetically did, and still join it?
These are serious questions which I wish any progressive would attempt to address. For all I know, there is a perfectly good reason for these people to subscribe to a movement that unapologetically tried to wipe them off the face of the earth.
So far, I can’t figure it out.
At the very least, if the Progressive movement of today would like to argue that it is not the same movement it once was, I’m all ears. So far all I’ve heard is defensiveness. The Progressive movement should be considered to have not a shred of credibility until they at least acknowledge their movement’s role in many of the 20th Century’s most sadistic atrocities.

Very thought provoking article.
"Progressive intellectuals inspired and fed the ideology of Nazis and the Klan.
Is a Jewish Progressive any different than a Jewish Nazi? If so, how?
Is a black Progressive any different than a black Klansman? If so, how?"
Perhaps we should ask George Soros and Danny Glover their thoughts on this matter?
the left finally realized they couldn't exterminate the "lesser races" so they returned to the old ways of enslaveing them. history doesn't repeat itself but it does rhyme.
Yes, the early progressives were racist. And George Bernard Shaw was a wacko. But one thing that you have forgotten is that good things can come from a stupid or evil tree. It sounds counter-intuitive but it is true. The Shakers believed that Ann Lee was the Second Coming of Christ but they made excellent furniture and "Tis a Gift to be Simple" was a great song. Stalin was a worst murderer than Hitler. True. And the Communist Party in America was Stalin's servant. And it is also true that the early organizers of some of our industrial unions were members of Stalin's Party. But Industrial Unionism was a good thing and helped to create the American Post-WW II Middle Class. Glenn Beck's polemics against Progressives remind me of a lot of writing I have seen about the supposed evils of the Catholic Church: Inquistions and torture. But they forgot that Catholic Church was not only the Church of the Inquisition – it was the Church of St. Francis of Assisi and Mother Theresa.
The world is very rarely the black and white place that agitators make it out to be. I commend Glenn Beck in his skillful study of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. Alinsky taught that the Radical knows that truth exists in shades of gray but you must act as if it is black and white if you want people to act. Agitators eliminate distinctions and push people towards action around black and white terms. PLEASE KNOW – this is what Beck seems to be doing.
I seriously hope that Beck does not really believe this crap. 2010 Progressivism does NOT equal Fascism – does NOT equal Communism.
The Progressives won't admit to any of this. They will just change their name.
Ah but history does repeat itself and if the "Progressives" get the total power that they crave in this country we will witness the repetition of history. Not the gas chambers but through the rationing of health care. Maybe even through the extreme cost of heating oil in the winter due to cap and trade. Speaking of cap and trade cost, what will that do to food prices?
Yes history does repeat, maybe not a mirror image but the results are the same.
Glenn Beck has done an excellent job in providing an understanding as to how the progressive movement evolved. Understanding how the movement evolved helps us to understand what they are all about today.
I see many similar behaviors between the progressives of old and the progressives of today. To me, it shows that the progressives haven't really changed much. Class warfare, more government control, less freedoms for the citizens in the name of the government. It's all there today just like it was back then. The mass murders haven't occurred yet under the name of the progressives however if the movement gains more power, it will only be a short time before it does happen as progressives are extremely intolerant of any opposing view.
All the the Media Matter folks blasting Beck, while wearing their Che t-shirts, haven't shown me a single thing to disprove anything in Beck's documentary. All I see is scrambling to cover their collective backsides from the facts.
I am glad to see that Glenn Beck is getting to them by speaking the truth.
He will be exposing the "Progressives" for who they really are.
Thanks for the article…As far as I'm concerned, Communism, Fascism,
and Progressives are 1st cousins!
I applaud Glenn Beck, I think he is the ONLY ONE on radio or television,
that will tell it like it is!
I don't think the folks at Media Matters (or any of their far-left counterparts) will accurately refute this. The truth is a foreign concept to progressives.
Progressives believe there is just about the right number of them, and far, far to many of us. They love the weak, just go visit any inner-city Sec.8 housing development, drive through Appalachia and witness their work, generational servitude. The progressive leftist movement is without exception is the bloodiest, most regressive political movement in the history of mankind, Stalin, Hitler, Mao. Glenn Beck is simply bold enough to point it out, give’em hell Glenn!
The more hated you are by the lefties and their media mouthpieces in the MSM the more you must be right.
You right Bookman 2010 progressives are Socialists and Maoist. I.E. your Uncle Saul states the first rule of community organizing is community disorganizing.The banking system is broken (disorganized)…the health care system is disorganized. The auto companies were disorganized etc…..The truth does not exists in the gray areas,thats what you are led to believe,the gray areas are the muddy waters…you cant see the truth….the truth is in black and white…thats why progressives never tell you the real agenda…they muddy the waters to make it confusing and use half truths.
"Bloods, and Crips", and wouldn't you include those that use
race baiting to try to stifle speech? The ones that call you a
racist because you have a different opinion!…They use that
to shut you up, and it works with most everyone….
Are you serious?
George Soros or Danny Glover actually have thoughts?
Progressives do not think, they feel. They tend to confuse those two terms also, as most of society today does.
Progressives base all of their decisions on the shifting sands of their emotions. Thinking requires dealing in facts and truth! Facts and truth are totally devoid of emotion, yet when people are confronted by them, the usual reaction is offense and revulsion.
The left does not think, they feel.
Good un' Cowboy!
They will never learn,hopefully they'll go the way of AIR AMERICA.
We've had quite enough "Hype and Che"!
Mao is murder!
"You know you're over the target when you start taking fire." –old aviator saying
Go, Glenn!
"The Neo-Progressives might do themselves a service by admitting the damage their predecessors have done, and trying to make amends for their horrors. Denying these documented crimes is the same as excusing them."
Why…So they can apologize than get them in on some Obama cash to make them feel better…?
As with Air America, the people of the country will decide who is right, and who is so far out in left field, they forgot what inning it was…!
I'm surprisde that a person as bitter as Soros, has been able to stay alive as long as he has…You would think his heart would have failed him 30 years ago with all the hate he holds.
We not only have left out the true meaning of Truth, we have forgotten where it comes from, for those of you who assume you have an understanding of the Truth. Spell it out, quit trying to rationalize it .
"For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. … For we
cannot oppose the truth, but must always stand for the truth. … "
Gray is not a color it is a Movement.
Planned Parenthood has the majority of their "health clinics" in poor, inner city, black and hispanic neighborhoods, this is NOT an accident!
Margaret Sanger, Hillary's "personal hero" has notably made hundred of statements JUST LIKE THIS:
"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."
Margaret Sanger's December 19, 1939 letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble, 255 Adams Street, Milton, Massachusetts. Original source: Sophia Smith Collection, Smith College, North Hampton, Massachusetts. Also described in Linda Gordon's Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America. New York: Grossman Publishers, 1976.
Thing is, progressives never stopped believing this crap!
Then why did Van Jones proclaim himself a Communist, Bookman? Joe McCarthy was right!
Media Matters vs Glenn Beck. Beck wins with a knock out in the first round. The truth always wins.
"2010 Progressivism does NOT equal Fascism"
Fascism- A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator (such as Obamao, Dingy Harry and Nazi Pelosi), stringent socioeconomic controls (GM, AIG, etc.), suppression of the opposition through terror (Acorn, SEIU) and censorship (FCC, DOJ), and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism (fill in your own ideas).
As for the communism part, you only need to look to Mao who murdered more than anyone in history and more than Hitler, Stalin and others- combined.
2010 progressives are worse than fascists and communists because these libtards operate under the cover of darkness and when exposed, run for cover like cock roaches.
I think it's a simple formula really. Conservatives by nature prefer to think for themselves,take care of their own affairs, leave others to do the same, and tend not to buy into so called movements. Liberals, particularly progressives, are the opposite. They have an inborn need to meddle in others affairs (mostly because they feel superior), to be a part of group that supports their sense of superiority and to follow that group in an effort to bring about changes that they believe are needed. The most frightening part is that they believe they are doing a good thing. Save the spotted owl, but euthanize the female babies to control population. Scary scary stuff.
And then some!
To paraphrase: Those who fail to acknowledge history are destined to repeat it.
our forefathers understood, that with power comes greed and corruption…totalitarian government leads to dissent, which l…eads to destruction of that dissent- when you take the power of many and give to a few, it is a natural occurrence that the few would become, at least in their own minds, all knowing….we are not slaves to them, however their very existence as elected officials rests with our votes…when men become rabid with power and greed, i have no doubt they would kill to retain power, and history tells us, this is the result…..The constitution protects us, but we have to protect it, for without it , we wouldnt be having this conversation…..
Van Jones? From a cold hearted practical politically liberal prospective – Van Jones was a "useful idiot" – turning Lenin on his head. People like Van Jones are used by people like Rahm Emmanuel and Obama for a purpose – and if they become too controversial then they are cast aside. Van Jones was cast aside. In the Democratic Party there is a distinction (and conflict) between the Progressive Establishment Politicians and THE ACTIVISTS. Activist very rarely make their way into the inner corridors of power. This is true on the right as well as the left. Van Jones was an activist that the Politicians were using. Watch for the Obama Administration to cut loose more Activists.
cardon: You couldn't possibly be referring to fine, upstanding members of the clergy, could you? I mean would REVEREND Jesse Jackson, or REVEREND Al Sharpton stoop to such tactics?
/naiveté
Van Jones simply moved to another liberal progressive group, John Podesta and the George Soros funded “Center for American Progress,” note “progress” in the title. Also Valerie Jarrett (slum lord), Van Jones biggest supporter in the WH is faithfully at Barry’s side.
Note: John Podesta was in charge of the Obama transition team.
Beck get it right. First they were Progressives until that became a dirty word. Then they were liberals until their ideas made that a dirty word. Now they are back to Progressives with the same ideas in a different package.
Same old crap just different packaging. Same tired ideas – keep people suckling on the federal breast so they can't provide for themselves. Randy Newman had a great line in his age old song "Rednecks" – I won't be coarse and use the term but the gist is "Keepin the ******* down."
That's the left's objectives and they have been wildly successful at it for 50 years.
It is time that we all wake up. This has been gradually happening in America for decades, our eyes wide shut! History has shown common ways the erosion begins. First they divide families… we have out of wedlock births, single moms and divorce rates that are nothing less than astounding. Just look at what has happened to inner city youth raised without fathers! Then they chip away at your faith, replacing God with big government. And nobody ever mentions the holocaust already going on in this country in the form of abortion and the tens of millions of innocent lives lost, and this coincides with the loss of faith and not understanding the true value of every single human being. And we all know the horrors of free healthcare for all…rationing WILL happen. I have a dear friend from Poland and she remembers what it was like when one leftist ideology "liberated" them from the other leftist state and she witnessed horrors, including watching her priest executed in front of her. She has been telling me for years now that the democratic party in this country is saying a lot of the same things that these statist regimes believed, even seemingly good things like mandatory preschool. She says that President Obama sounds just like Stalin. Her advice to me, an American in 2010 is " survive". America should be thriving, not just surviving. I fear for my children. Something is very wrong, I can feel it in my bones, and thank goodness a man with a microphone(Glenn Beck) is shining some light on this.
It''s worth noting that the Nazi's were also known as the Democratic Socialist Party. (Not the Republican Party) and that the KKK was mostly comprised of Southern Democrats.
Please realize the incorrect "broad-brush" that Glenn Beck uses when dealing with political ideology. To use your Poland example: Nazi occupation was replaced with Communist Dictatorship and then a democratic movement replaced Communism. What Americans sometime forget (or did not know) is that the democratic movement that replaced Communism – led by SOLIDARITY – was Socialist as well – DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST. Glenn Beck's problem is that he sees all three movements (Nazism, Communism, and Democratic Socialism) as ultimately the same. This is incorrect. Please see clearly to proceed.
I thoroughly enjoyed Glenn's Documentary. I think it should be shown to Children who have previously been propagandized with a more appealing Picture of the isms. A more accurate accounting of history in text books is long overdue.
Glenn did a great job spotlighting the cluelessness that is celebrityism also. How idiotic they appear parading around in their "Che" attire.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Liberal Elite now begin to rebrand their agenda as Populism & describe themselves as Populists.
.Of course James thats was the name of the Nazi party but the left is always trying to rewrite history..
This is too easy. R.E: B.O.'s veiled reference to Sarah Palin, "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig." Not very original, but in this case it applies.
No matter what the Progressive/Liberal/Facist/Nazi/Communist/Socialist/SEIU/Acorn/blah blah blah, yaddah yaddah yaddah, organizations call them selves………
Let's just say it's Communism lite. How do you explain the "social engineering" meme of the current sitting POTUS?
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. 2010 Progressivism does not equal Communism/Fascism. But I can see where the democratic Progressive vision moves away from the concepts of freedom and liberty that are accepted by Libertarians and Conservatives.
Does everyone else notice that Media Matters never once mentioned what Beck exposed about their hero Che?
Soros freely admits to his role in the Holocaust. I doubt you'd get anything that would surprise you.
lol, I sure would, and 99% of the demon-c-rats do the same thing…
If you disagree with them on welfare, you don't want to help the
poor, if you disagree with the way to handle the healthcare situation,
you want to see people sick or dead in the streets…They are like
that with everything…You don't think there is such a thing as global
warming, you want to see people fry….I just hope more and more
people wake-up to these blatant lies!!
Glenn Beck is the only ONE out there NOT AFRAID to tell the truth!!! He STILL has a red phone on his desk if ANYONE at the White House want to call and challenge him on ANYTHING…he has begged…"Call me, prove me wrong!"
QUESTION: IS IT TRUE THAT "FOX NEWS" IS FINANCED BY THE ARABS? THAT IS WHAT I'VE HEARD!
Obama (at his most radical) is a Western European Social Democrat (in the tradition of the Labor Party of England or the Social Democratic Party of Germany. It does us no good to mis-name things. It was stupid of Progressives during the Bush Administration to call his Conservatism fascist. We need to call things by their real names. I would respect Glenn Beck a lot more if he presented a thoughtful and realistic Libertarian critique of Social Democracy. What he does though is makes Soviet Communism his "straw man". Beck can attack Sovietism and pretend that he is battling Obama. He is deluding himself.
"Progressives" in world history; Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh, Che, Castro, Carter, Clinton, Obama and Chavez… Birds of a feather flock together…
"How could they be aware of what Progressivism unapologetically did, and still join it?" One need only read Marx–a Jew & anti-semite–to answer this question. Ideology above ALL else.
The way many of the Progressives talk when they think only their own are listening, you know that they'd happily find ways to permanently silence just about all of us who post here. It's simply distressing how much they resort to name-calling, lies, slander and threats when faced with those with whom they disagree. Give them the actual power and authority, and the temptation to remove us with a final solution would become almost overwhelming to many of them.
What is sad is that a sometimes-clownish figure, Glen Beck, seems to be one of the very few people in the media who asks probing and important questions. In return, he is the object of ad hominem attacks, but the core problems he addresses are never discussed by the "progressives." To paraphrase Ayn Rand's observation: Climbing a mountain is easy – the progressives would say – but rolling in the gutter, now, THAT is an achievement. And rolling in the gutter they made into an art form, indeed.
Got "Che"-nge?
I agree, I've heard him refer to bodyguards a couple of times….
If you are a praying man, keep this good patriot in your
prayers, as will I…..We need his voice out there!! He's doing
our country a great service..All he talks about was pretty much deleted
or covered up for way too long……
The healthcare bill includes rationing. obamao said it himself, " cronicly ill and old people make up 80% of healthcare costs." they plan on rationing healthcare for these people so they can save money. Robert Reich said " we are going to let you die." Ezeikel Emamuel, wrote, " why we must ration healthcare." This came from Beck's show on eugenics a few months ago. When grayson said the republicans are going to let you die I beleive he was actually talking about progressives.
If they are, so what? What relevance might THAT have to the message they deliver? Are you saying that FOX is a terrorist organization?
Where did you hear that and what does it mean to you?
That would be an acknowledgment of their glorification of Che and Mao as "heroes", not bloody likely to happen…
It doesn't matter. Their audience will never know anything they don't want them to know.
Sure I want to see them fry! And 30 years ago I wanted them to freeze to death from global cooling. Global Cooling, you will recall, was what Newsweak and Time, and US Snooze and Whirled Retorts was using on their covers to move magazines.
Nazi = "National Socialist German Workers Party" – lets get it right! And way back when the KKK were probably Democrats – but that was before President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Since 1968 those KKKers would have probably been Republicans. The racist South used to be part of the Democratic Party's national coalition. Now the racist South is part of the Republican's coalition. They are YOUR problem now.
good point, I was too easy on them in a later comment.
Yes.
That race baiting works with most folks.
It does not with me.
I prefer to call a spade a spade and let the chips fall where they may.
Just took a look at the Media Matters website, WOW they are delusional. The comments are even worse. How do the left sleep at night?
No.
It is not true that FOX is financed by the Arabs.
It is true that Prnice Alaweed owns 5% of FOX.
Regarding the comments pertaining to black klansmen, aren't they called "Bloods" and "Crips"?
You forgot to add BGF, PGB, etc (insert any known gang moniker). You could also ask, "Why are black people killed more often by other blacks?
Time to get the RINO’s out of the party and that is getting John McCain defeated in his primary. JD Hayworth just announced his intention to run against McCain and he deserves your support.
John McCain is largely the reason we have Obama as president. John McCain refused to ask and challenge Obama on a number of issues that are now biting us in the ass. John McCain deserves to go, support JD Hayworth in his effort to defeat a long standing RINO. Also, as for me, I will NEVER give another red cent to the GOP again after their unyielding support for Dede the RINO in NY23. The GOP is a camelion in disguise and does not deserve any support until it gets a clue about it’s role in reversing government in our lives.
As for Glen Beck, he is bright and brings out alot of interesting points about progressives, but he is dead wrong on Obama’s elgilibility to be president. Becks tirade against ‘birthers’ is totally uncalled for and is a point that Obama has spent millions to cover up. Beck needs to look at the facts that Obama is spending millions to cover up.
It's about STATISTICS and RELIABILITY! OBJECTIVITY!
BOTH FOX AND TERRORISM HAVE A "RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY"!
FOX? RANDOLPH HURST IS SAID TO HAVE CREATED WARS! FOLLOW THE MONEY!
There is a lot of energy on display here. How do we organize our energy and put it to constructive use? At issue: we need to channel our energy into effective action to influence the 2010 and 2012 elections to favor candidates representing our views without regard for party.
Personally, I want Ron Paul to run again. If he does, I'll be on the front lines working for him. I think Michelle Bachman would make an interesting VP choice. Here in Arizona I'm already working for Chris Simcox. He is running against John McCain. As a former elected person I know John McCain. That is why I'm supporting Chris. Chris ran the Minutemen down on Arizona's border. Check him out at simcox for senate dot com.
As BECK said, MARX WANTED TO KILL JEWS TOO! WHY? RELIGIOUS IDEOLOGY!
IRONY: MARXISM IS RELIGION TOO!
Because the ends justify the means. Lies, falsehoods, little white lies, whoppers, slander, libel, smears, character assasination , you name it, all ok if they advance the agenda of the Progressives.
"CHE" SOUNDS LIKE A BIG FAN OF HOLLYWOOD AND AMERICAN WOMEN!
WHY?
POWER AND CONTROL!
If progressives start feeling some pressure from their indefensible past they will abandon the title of 'progressive'. Much like Global Warming is now called Climate Change. What do you think they will call themselves?
Should have read your post first…I'm not the only one that sees a rebranding in the future.
Lies, damned lies and "statistics"…
Cook it any way you like, the truth hurts, don't it?
I honestly don't know.
It would seem that they would make harder targets to hit, at night.
Perhaps that is one of lifes riddles.
"Brown shirts"!
The left will never admit that their social engineering and playing with the tax code in regards to the 'welfare' state is doing more harm than good. The Great Society is the root cause behind the destruction of the black family structure and the founding document of our current welfare state.
Welfare=Slavery, Liberal compassion are the chains that keep the indentured in their place. When individual initiatve is supplanted by dependancy, multiple generational welfare is the result..
The compassion of the progressives is the most insidious form of racism and those victimization pimps (Jackson and Sharpton) are the ones keeping their people on the plantation.
good points
Really? That's your argument: Since 1968 those KKKers WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN Republicans.
There is absolutely no way for you to quantify that argument! Republicans fought and died to abolish slavery, work for the passage of civil rights, etc. OTOH, look at every failing demographic where minorities live in poverty and failure: Detroit, California, South Central, New Orleans, Baltimore, DC…governed by today's Democrat Progressives.
See? That's an argument.
Dear Mr. or Ms. FO — I also know the illustrious Mr. JD. Subsequently I will not be supporting his candidacy either. I want somebody in the Senate that's been on the front lines of defending our liberty and Constitution, and I want somebody who is unafraid to make the tough calls with no bloviating. Self-aggrandizement doesn't amuse me.
Furthermore… forget about party affiliations. Think outside of the box and look at the individual.
If by "socialist" you mean the power of the people from the bottom up and not top down, that is not what I am talking about. The tea party movement rising up in this country is a social gathering movement of the people from the bottom up, not top down. I guess if you want, you can call it "socialist" too. It is the same with unions, we belong to IBEW and believe in unions from the bottom up….but as soon as government gets involved, power from above forcing it on the general population, annointing it special privileges, there is corruption and it becomes this ugly thing that popular opinion sways against. I fear for union labor now that this bunch in power is making it look so bad! Anyway, I see how you can spin what I was saying, and it is a logical argument.
I think the real difference is that so many times, a charismatic leader takes the wheel of a popular movement and perverts it for his own gain, using the very people they propose they represent. The true power should always be with the people and big government is always a problem. You and I probably agree on things more than we realize.
Moby?
Well stated and accurate. Where was the outrage when Ginsberg mentioned that she thought abortion was to get rid of the undesirables. Total silence from Jackson and Sharpton, amazing!
Wait, I thought Beck caused violence? Isn't that what Media Matters says?
Nazis, Marxist, Socialists, Communists and Progressives all have one goal, Control. Just like Obama want to control all our lives. Because he thing he is smarter than you. Take health care, 63% of the people of The United States don't want it but he knows better and he knows whats better for us. Obama thinks he's God.
Today the Solid Democratic South of the Roosevelt era and before is now the Solid Republican South. The key fact that changed this was the 1964 Civil Rights Act. This Act was supported by Northern Republicans and Democratic Liberals in the North. That was a different Republican Party and a different Democratic Party. I do not think that Glenn Beck would want to claim Teddy Roosevelt or the Wisconsin Republican Party of the Progressive Era. There has been a realignment since '68. See it or don't. I understand that you are making an argument about the effectiveness of Progressive programs for Blacks and inner city communities. But that is changing the subject. I would be willing to discuss that. But let's finish this one first – the South turned Republican directly because of Democrat's turn to the left – Civil Rights Act and the later reaction to the George McGovern Presidential Campaign in '72 sealed the deal.
Bruce Thornton, a professor of Classics at American University of Cal State Fresno wrote:
Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us today.
That Soros is an evil looking man!!..
I think you are right. You and I probably do agree on things more than we realize.
I watched Glenn's show the other day. FOX and Glenn should get an award. It should also be required for every student in America to watch. All grades. I was surprised Obama didn't have his usual 'cut off Glenn' news conference. Axelrod, Jarriett and Gibbs are all on t.v. spinning today. What a piece of work we have running the country. Wonder who's writing O's speech for this week. How many people does it take for them to write "it's still Bush's fault?" These folks don't have a clue.
hillary clinton branded herself a modern twentieth century progressive. does that mean she supports genocide ? or does she support the obama care and government sanctioned death panels ? i will bet the failing media won't ask and she won't tell.
That's why Obama ignored all the protesters in Washington on Sept 12th and then later made fun of them.
The marxists in this country will just change their title again as they did when they went from "progessive" to "liberal" and back to "progressive" again. It won't work, of course, but they can't EVER tell the truth as no one would listen to them ever again, so they'll keep trying. What a pathetic group of lieing losers! We're on to them now, so it's basically all over but the shouting.

Ben- thanks and I saw your note below. As far as labor unions go… although I am adamantly against unions and particularly those in the government sector, I respect anyone who puts in an honest day's work for fair compensation- regardless of whether they belong to a union or not. I do have a big problem with union leaders who take member paid dues to advance their self-serving political agenda- such as scumbags like Andy Stern of SEIU- whose socialist views make me want to hurl.
I think an individual has to decide if he/she is 100% for our constitution, liberty and freedom. Anyone who does not feel this is of utmost importance is a potential enemy.
Thanks for understanding. I am a big Beck guy. I have never agreed with anyone about everything. Not even my better half.
Hillary claims to be a modern progressive. [ancient or modern, both seem to have the same foundation]
I haven't heard Obama openly describe himself as a progressive. But I have heard him say "my progressive friends" far too many times, in far too comfy a way. Moreover, his history, and the people that he surrounds himself with, paint a very clear picture.
If one were to always be around clean cut, church going folks, then that person would be assumed to be like those folks. If someone were to be frequently seen in barrooms & clubs, what would you assume of them? If I have been noticed to be in the company of drug users/dealers, what would you expect of me?
ALL progressives are just that~~"useful idiots" of the communist/marxist movement, that is, the bottom rung of the progressives, those at the top ARE hardcore communists/marxists. You need to get your head out of the sand…………………..Hanzo

Jesus said he would send us a comforter. The truth will win in the end. It is just a long trip.
Media no longer matters. The truth is out there, if it wasn't Glenn and his crew doing all the footwork, it would (hopefully) been someone else. That being said, thank GOD for Glenn Beck. They can deny all they want, but many of us knew the truth. Now many more know. Hillary and her ilk at media matters will pretend that she never said she considered herself a modern Progressive, they'll tweek their name, and try once again to blend into the shadows, but it will not work this time. As for George Soros, you evil prick, you are not long for this Earth, the sooner Satan calls you home the better.
