Socialism in Action

What happens when a country loses its ‘can do’ spirit and replaces it with a ‘what can you do for me?’ attitude? This happens: people start depending on government for free stuff. If you don’t think the incentive absent mentality of socialism is pervasive in America, then you need to watch this video. Glenn shows what happened in Detroit and New York when people heard government was handing out checks. Are the days of Americans picking themselves up by the bootstraps over? Watch Glenn’s latest Beck Talks video blog.

Chairman Anita

Anita Dunn, the White House spokesperson put in charge of watching Fox News all day long, had a bad day yesterday. A watchdog found out that Anita happens to be a fan of Chairman Mao — who happens to be a fan of killing tens of millions of people. Glenn plays the audio of Anita as she talks to a class of graduating high school students about her ‘favorite political philosopher’ and the life lessons they can take from him. Glenn reacts, plus Jake Tapper from ABC tweeted Anita’s response. ( Transcript, Insider Audio)

Balloon Boy

If you were around a TV yesterday during the early afternoon you probably noticed something that looked like, as Glenn described it, a ‘flying muffin’ getting wall to wall news coverage. Reports were that a boy was trapped inside, causing panic. Turns out the six year old boy was not in the balloon. It also turns out that the boy’s family had previously appeared on 2 reality TV programs. It also turns out that when interviewed by Wolf Blitzer, the boy said ‘we did this for the show.’ Was it a hoax for TV? Glenn talks about the balloon saga. ( Transcript, Insider Audio)
