Did he literally mean shoot him in the head? Come on. Sorry but Glenn Beck is not in the same league as Osama even as much as Chris Mathews would like him to be. I think Mathews is jockeying to fill the ranting far left void Olbermann left behind.

Nobody is saying he’s the same as Osama, jackass.

What is this? Did someone declare this the thread of really fucking stupid comparisons when I wasn’t looking?

Beck’s rhetoric is paranoid, incessantly painting the opposition as morally bankrupt, needing to be stopped at all cost, hell-bent on the destruction of all that is good. He is apocalyptic. He preaches violent revolution, violent solutions, while worming away from actual responsibility.

And the twisted pictures he paints have already inspired people to go shoot those he called out as enemies.
