Like A Whirlpool And It Never Ends

Below, Jill says If you read one article today, make it this one. I'll urge you to read a second: This is who 'we' really is, Glenn:
You'll notice he didn't define the "we" he had in mind, but it seems reasonable to suppose Beck was speaking of people like himself: affluent middle-aged conservatives possessed of the ability to see socialism and communism in places where it somehow escapes the notice of others.

If you agree that assumption is reasonable, then you must also agree Beck's contention that his "we" were the architects of the civil rights movement is worse than nonsensical, worse than mendacious, worse than shameless. It is obscene. It is theft of legacy. It is robbery of martyr's graves.

We're in an odd moment. Having opposed the freedom movement of the 20th century, some social conservatives seek, now that that movement stands vindicated and venerated, to arrogate unto themselves its language and heroes, to remake it in their image.

The MSM is going to be wall-to-wall mendacious ignoramuses this weekend. You're going to need this simple truth-telling going in, during, and ever after.
