Glen Beck (and others like him) are good for one thing: Uniting us

The various hodge-podge of groups that make up the Democratic party can usually agree on one thing:

Glen Beck and the teabaggers are complete batshit crazy idiots who are a danger to this country.

The more Glen Beck and others like him get out there and make themselves the news over the next two months, the better the prospects are for the Democratic party in November.

4. The nation is already divided- and SD is absolutely correct

the louder and more insane these folks get, the better the chances for more reasonable candidates in November.

2. "The Uniting" is totally irrelevant without a national leader/voice.

The guy we thought we had is always absent.

7. Can you give me a list of Obama's top five domestic public policy positions?

Policies that are clearly articulated and easily understood.

Whats the goal?

3. I guess that is something...

Wouldn't that be sortof like saying Adolf Hitler (and others like him) were good for uniting the labor unions and the left in the 1920's and 1930's?

If what they do creates more energy for their side than it does ours, then it is definitely not a win for us.
