Glenn Beck’s latest conspiracy: Foreign nationals have ‘penetrated’ U.S., staging Marxist revolution.

Today on his radio program, radical right-wing conspiracist Glenn Beck declared that “the second wave” of “the Perfect Storm” had arrived. Discussing a story about spies infiltrating the electricity grid, Beck quickly veered into conspiracy theory mode, declaring that foreign nationals “have been dropped into position” to foment revolution in the United States, apparently using the all-powerful weapons of college courses and unions:

If you don’t think that foreign nationals that wish our country harm, that would like to see us collapse, are not here right now, the Tom Cruise of Russia, of China, of Iran, of any country, Chavez – if you don’t think that some of these Marxist revolutionary courses that are being taught out in California, the Marxist revolutionary influences in our own unions, in our own businesses, in our own uh, you know, protests out in the streets — if you think those are spontaneously happening by Americans, you’re an idiot.

Insisting that “those people that do Mission Impossible missions…are real,” Beck said that such people “read the newspaper right now and cry” because “they know what to look for in other countries.” “And they know these are the conditions that they would have been sent into” to topple the government.

11. Me neither!

and "Marxists"? That is sooooo mid 20th century! He does know the USSR is kaput, right?
And are "They" Fascists or Marxists? He's always talking about Fascists. They can't be both at the same time.

I guess Scientology is a Commie plot. That's all I can figure he's saying.



Boy, Rush really is better than Beck at this...what ever you call it..."bat-shit-crazy-commie-xenophobic-ranting"? It must be harder than it sounds.
