Best TV show of the week: Glenn Beck

Best TV broadcasts this week: the five-part series on Glenn Beck's program about how groups surrounding President Obama are poised to snatch away our freedoms in their efforts to "change" our society to a leftist oligarchy. If you missed any of the broadcasts, you can get the facts from Glenn's web site.

Any of the broadcasts, of course, should send chills up your spine. Glenn asked on Thursday, for example, why Obama NEEDS a "civilian national security force" he openly proposed during his presidential campaign, "that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the military. More importantly, Beck asks, who is the enemy that this "security force" is supposed to defend us from?

If you wonder why leftists bloggers and the mainstream state-run media seem to zero in on Glenn Beck, this is part of the reason why: he's asking the questions the watchdog media refuses to even consider. For example, Glenn's viewers (3 million of them) are learning about how Obama's 1,000-page stimulus and health care bills are being written by radical groups, and the Marxist background of some of Obama's "czars." In contrast, I learned more about Obama's vacation at Martha's Vineyard from CBS News's Up to the Minute newscast than anything else.

If truth can put a stop to the new American oligarchy, then these broadcasts will make a difference.
