Glenn Beck conspiracy theory: What's his evidence?

Glenn Beck conspiracy theory: A Saudi national was involved in the Boston Marathon attack, Glenn Beck alleges. US officials reject the notion and dismiss the 'evidence' as so much bureaucratic paperwork.
By Peter Grier | Christian Science Monitor – 3 hrs ago...

Glenn Beck has spent lots of time in recent days alleging that the Boston Marathon bombing was carried out by a conspiracy that revolved around a shadowy Saudi national questioned by police in a Boston hospital in the immediate aftermath of the tragedy.

OK, is he just winging it here, or does the ex-Fox, now-independent radio and Internet video host have any real evidence for this charge?

He says he does, unsurprisingly. On his show Wednesday morning Mr. Beck produced a document that he claimed is an official US “event report” showing that the Saudi in question is a bad, bad man who was on a no-fly list and already subject to visa revocation.

What he didn’t mention is that Fox News reporter Bret Baier has already looked into this whole alleged Saudi conspiracy, including the document Beck deemed so revealing, and concluded that there was no there there, to paraphrase writer Gertrude Stein’s jibe about Oakland.

How insane do you have to be when even Fox News recognizes you are insane? (Hence the reason you are no longer employed there.)

1. I find it incredible that

he believes any of the crap that comes out of his mouth. His followers are just as batshit as he is. If you're too off the wall for Faux you have to know, on some level, that you're spewing garbage.

2. I have someone on Facebook who won't shut up about the Beck Saudi conspiracy theory.

It's pathetic, and makes them look pathetic too.

4. They just can't stand it that a person with brown skin is not involved.

Seeing the real attackers as white on white probably upsets their sense of superiority. So they have to believe a fake brown man was the real bad man.

5. They just have to repeat themselves....

"At least they were Muslim, at least they were Muslim, at least they were Muslim..."

Think the conspiracy theories are bad now? Just imagine how bad they would have been had the perpeptrator(s) been anti-government Tea Party/McVeigh types.

6. That's true. I have heard all sorts of anti-Muslim verbal attacks because of this thing.

7. It's really sad.

There's not a 'brown' person that they can blame here. Next best thing is to tar and feather all Muslims for this.

I don't know how they can live with carrying around that much bigotry and ignorance.

3. I read somewhere that Alex Jones was going to Fox, he is even

nuttier than Beck.
