-— It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat, because this guy is offering you many of the same things, as shallow as the same way. If you said to me that it bothered you about his past, you said to me, ‘Hey, what about his relationship with Jeremiah Wright? What about what he’s done here, here, and here?’ You’re not bothered by this guy, and it’s exactly the same thing.” -—
Beck has a point. If not for the black line, which made me wince when I heard it, his statement would be 100% correct.
It’s ironic that the Trump supporters, who excuse all of Trump’s off-the-cuff statements, leap at the chance to condemn Beck’s off-the-cuff statements.
Beck said the same thing about Newt supporters in 2012.
Of course then it was because Beck supported Romney.
