They hate him because he is dangerous. When he goes after an individual, he makes damned sure he has verifiable facts to back up what he says. He has a pretty good research team behind him. Millions of people watching him simply because he comes across as a decent, and flawed, man. American like decent, flawed, people. Because mainly we are decent, flawed, people. So they relate to him. He is the epitome of what we admire - a self made man who has made mistakes, put them right, admitted them and used his experience to make him a better human being.
Dangerous to who? To liberals? No. He is dangerous to this country. There is a difference. Second, facts aren't the issue here, it is how he spins them as part of the fox narrative to vilify liberals and exult conservatives. Don't you find that a little immature, especially someone with an IQ of... what was it, 168, such as yourself? I would expect someone of your IQ to be able to see beyond Beck, which only goes to show, IQ doesn't mean shit. Second I've heard you claim you were an independant, but it is clear that you are a conservative, because you bash liberals every chance you give, so stop lying to yourself.
Beck IS dangerous to American politics in general, because he is only a divisive figure who seeks to split us apart. Fox loves this because they make tons of money. Beck is sincere in what he says, I believe, and that's fine, everyone has a right to their beliefs, but that he believes that he, and all of the conservatives are TOTALLY RIGHT and ALL OF THE LIBERALS ARE WRONG, is non-sensical. It is VASTLY oversimplistic, even if the majority of blame could be assigned to the left. Neither side has all of the answers to all of our problems, and that is how he comes across, as the right having all the answers, and the left being the cause of all of our problems. It's a giant smear campaign, much like Hitler did with the jews in Germany before the war, to get everyone to hate the jews so that he would have more a platform to run on. Beck is essentially using the same tactic. Create an enemy, point the finger, at ANY costs, in defense of an idea of what this country supposedly is, and create that idea and sell it to the public, by appealing to the pain and sorrow in the people, and taking advantage of that vulnerability to instill anger and resentment. Once you establish that fear and blame of the 'other side' by presenting a case, and people by it, you have made yourself a voice for all of those people, and they will listen to every word you say, and that is what Beck has done. I'm not saying he isn't smart. There is something endearing about his fervor for his country, however, the sad part, is it is very distorted and dilusional, and he spreads that delusion with every point he makes, and is helping create a country further divided down the middle, the ultimate irony being that he is done it in the name of God, yet God stood for love and forgiveness, and he exhibits neither, in fact, just the opposite. As such, he is a hypocrit.
