Glenbeckistan and "Two-Minutes Hate"
UPDATES AT BOTTOM

I think the only way to explain the psychotic droolings of the Glennbeckistanians is to remind everyone of The Two Minutes Hate:

In George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, the Two Minutes Hate (more properly, "Two Minutes' Hate" or "Two-Minute Hate") is a daily period in which Party members of the society of Oceania must watch a film depicting The Party's enemies (notably Emmanuel Goldstein and his followers) and express their hatred for them and the principles of democracy.

Just insert Obama as the official "hate" subject of Glennbeckistan. Should you have any doubt that this little 9/12 idiocy march is one big hate-march, see this image below (h/t Alan Colmes)



And it would seem, that fascism is still on the march along side the racists, birthers, and Confederates. Because this hate-march is very much sponsored by the health lobby, via Dick Army - for some reason not in jail over his role in Abramoffgate.

UPDATE I

Something is seriously wrong at Politico when they have to ask if a corporate sponsored hate-march is a "movement." Next let's ask is racism really racism or a movement? Is hoping for more dead liberals extremism or a movement? Is stupid really stupid? Is corporate sponsored stupid really corporate sponsored stupid?
