I wrote the other day about all the ironies abounding in the elections, especially Mitch McConnell's protégé being destroyed by the tea partiers while Mitch was in DC taking care of Wall Street's business. But the irony doesn't stop with electoral or legislative politics at all. Now Glenn Beck, of all people, is attacking poor people who are losing their homes for having the gall to protest against the bankers.
Remember, Beck is the same guy who has been cheering the tea partiers on, urging anti-Obama forces to protest vehemently and loudly every single chance they get. But when people who are losing their homes after getting mistreated by Bank of America dare to protest, he gets all squeamish. Suddenly, they become dangerous "mobs" threatening children.
Beck and his banker buddies sure do have glass jaws. There was no violence at this protest, no threats of violence, no hint of it: just a bunch of folks protesting bankers who have destroyed millions of jobs and cost millions of people their homes by their recklessness.
