I’m quite capable of distiniguishing when someone is right on and when they are off the track.

When Beck is right on I’ll praise him from the rooftops. When he’s wrong it doesn’t bother me to say so, and it also doesn’t take anything away from when he’s right.

He’s the only one out there really doing the work that journalists used to do. Before the election no journalists bothered or dared to dig into O’s background, or the real connections between O and Ayers, or the real nature of Acorn, or the real nature of O’s connections with Acorn, or the real nature of what O was doing all those years. No journalists bothered to hunt down anyone who knew O’s grandparents, or his mom, or even O himself to give anyone any idea who these people were.

They still haven’t. Now that someone with a platform finally does it they are going bananas. Beck didn’t sink Van Jones, he just played the tapes and O fired him.

Beck isn’t going after Acorn, he just plays the tapes. Its going to take someone in government with some nerve to do the real work of taking them down and dismantling them, and meanwhile Beck is hanging way out there, exposed as all get-out, hoping someone will take what he’s found and actually run with it.

The press has gone into circle-the-wagon mode, defending what real journalists would investigate. There are a couple dozen more czars out there, and no one except Beck and a few others are even interested to know who they are.

I don’t care if you’ve got pictures of Beck french-kissing Santa, he’s more man than anyone else I can think of in the media or in politics right now. Thats the tragedy, that what he’s doing should be the rule instead of the rarest of exceptions.
