Beck, Rush, FOX and all...

....have zero interest in a Republican Party that works with and negotiates in a rational political give and take.

They have every financial interest in fanning the flames of discontent via their lies, inflammatory nonsense, and half truths. They make money by pouring gasoline on a fire rather than intelligent and reasoned examination of the issues.

What we are witnessing is the mass nervous breakdown of those who believed the lies of Palin, Beck, Rush and all the rest of these RW leaders. They are getting violent because they have bought into a world of propaganda that is just not real. Obama was born here. There are no "death panels". The government is not "taking over". Obama is no "LW Radical"...etc...

And the Republicans in the Congress dare not tweak this beast because the RW machine owns the radio and most of the TV airwaves.

They are trapped in a ever building delusional whirlwind fueled with unstable emotionalism provided by the sources they "trust": Beck, Rush, Hannity, FOX, Palin, Cheney, Boehner, etc....

3. Controversy sells, truth comes in a distant second

The right wing media has spent decades building a carefully misinformed audience. Now they are busily milking the cash cow they created for all it is worth.

Tea Party protests, death threats against Democrats, and hysteria over the Health Care bill only serve to boost their incomes. It will all blow up in Beck's face when people start dieing in the streets
