RIDICULOUS PEOPLE: RIDICULOUS IDEAS

Glenn Beck is not someone whom I have heard or seen directly other than clips shown by people, whom I respect, who have not presented him for his intelligent comments. After looking at his picture of the day on 8/3 and the 'interpretation' of Obama's 'body language', I can't believe the man dared to publish his name under the interpretation.
Since the lettering may be small, this is what is typed below the picture: 'Story by Thomas Lifson of the American Thinker
Obama's revealing body language
I am stunned that the official White House Blog published this picture and that it is in the public domain. The body language is most revealing. Sergeant Crowley, the sole class act in this trio, helps the handicapped Professor Gates down the stairs, while Barack Obama, heedless of the infirmities of his friend and fellow victim of self-defined racial profiling, strides ahead on his own. So who is compassionate? And who is so self-involved and arrogant that he is oblivious?'

Professor Gates had help, clearly, and the insensitive clod who wrote these negative words did not consider that President Obama may have courteously been getting the cameras off his disabled friend and onto himself. Writing about someone's intentions without ascertaining what they, in fact, may be why Glenn Beck is an entertainer and 'enlightener' rather than someone who should be taken seriously. He is as evil and mistaken (to my mind after I spent a bit of time reading his site) as Rush Limbaugh.
