| Before reading this piece on one of the most radical radio show hosts I've ever listened to once. Once was enough. In the short time I was in my car to get from point A, my house- to point B, my friend's house less than 15 minutes away, he spoke about eugenics in the United States and how we were ahead in the now unconsciouible practice of sterilizing people based on race and mental handicap and poverty---really a carte blanche on whatever was seen as undesireable. and then he makes that leap in rational thought- of course we are facing the same probable return of eugenics under current administration, especially in regards to healthcare reform. Wow, the guy is a geniuos, really. Really!!!! So, that's all I needed to hear to form my oplnlon. Am I being rash in making a judgment based on 15min listening to the man? Perhaps, but for those who listen to the man, and like his ideas, I welcome you to convince me he is sane, and not trying to scare the hell out of people who worship the likes of him and the other political shock jocks. I will hand it to these radio personalities, they are doing a very good job. For an interesting take on this same subject, check out what Redstate.com's Erick Erickson has to say about the Glenn Beck Boycott. I would like to know which companies he is referring to in regards to the advertisers who never were for Beck's show. Doesn't really go into it, and typically when there are facts to list, he will detail them. Hmmmm...
