Glenn Beck is suffering from a mental disorder that allows him to switch back and forth between personalities based on the news of the day. Today, he’s praising Liberals and saying they were right to oppose the Iraq war, tomorrow he is sure to praise the Republicans for invading Iraq.
In his latest show, Beck lambasted the Republican party for their gung-ho attitude towards a re-invasion of Iraq, and admitted that he was wrong, he made a mistake in being in favor of the war!
“From the beginning, most people on the left were against going into Iraq. I wasn’t. At the time I believed that the United States was under threat from Saddam Hussein. I really truly believed that Saddam Hussein was funding terrorists. We knew that. He was funding the terrorists in Hamas. We knew that he was giving money. We could track that. We knew he hated us. We knew that without a shadow of a doubt. It wasn’t much or a stretch to believe that he would fund a terror strike against us, especially since he would say that. So I took him at his word.
Now, in spite of the things I felt at the time when we went into war, liberals said: We shouldn’t get involved. We shouldn’t nation-build. And there was no indication the people of Iraq had the will to be free. I thought that was insulting at the time. Everybody wants to be free. They said we couldn’t force freedom on people. Let me lead with my mistakes. You are right. Liberals, you were right. We shouldn’t have.”
Then, sounding like a true liberal who has had enough of the wars, and stealing a line from Richard Martinez, the California dad whose son was killed in a recent shooting attack, Beck echoed the Not One More slogan, saying, “I have more of a chance of hacking off my loyal listeners and audience by saying this. but so be it: Not one more life. Not one more life. Not one more dollar, not one more airplane, not one more bullet, not one more Marine, not one more arm or leg or eye. Not one more.”
