Time Lies

Yesterday afternoon Glenn Beck got nailed for chasing the claims of former Congressman Eric Massa (D. NY) and was burned as he retracted most of his claim. TIME magazine and others are dancing, drunk with happiness about Beck's supposed misstep (the TIME link was on the front page of Yahoo!). But this post isn't about the left wing bias or how I have to dig to find links to the madness of Keith Olbermann while my homepage trumpets the setback for Beck (which was arguably one of his better moments as he turned to the camera at the end of the interview and told his audience he'd wasted their time). This post is about one subclause of one sentence: "the audience he once spent weeks telling about fanciful FEMA prison camps". I've watched Beck pretty religiously for some time now (I was conservative well before that and warning family and friends about Obama before my mother ever told me about Beck). Beck spent exactly 5 minutes of one show on FEMA concentration camps. He did so to show that the internet rumor was bunk.

Don't buy into the crap you hear or read (and the History Channel is probably the worst).
