BECK: There's two things that really bother me. Science has become religion on this. You're called a Nazi or a fascist or whatever if you -- if you don't agree with it.

That's Glenn Beck, yesterday on his CNN show. But, as Media Matters demonstrates, Beck will call you Hitler if you do agree with the science:

Now, here's a book that outsold the Bible in World War II. Did they know? They clearly did. Why this book, The Years of Extermination, is more frightening is the whole world knew. And when you see what was in the papers at the time -- I kept reading it going, "Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. I have read these things in some places about the Jews, in some places about what's coming in other places on global warming. I have seen these things happening right now." And I understand World War II much, much better because we're here again, gang. We are here again. And I read this one part on global warming about how they got -- what was the first thing they did to get people to exterminate the Jews. Now, I'm not saying that anybody's going to -- you know Al Gore's not going to be rounding up Jews and exterminating them. It is the same tactic, however. The goal is different. The goal is globalization. The goal is global carbon tax. The goal is the United Nations running the world. That is the goal. Back in the 1930s, the goal was get rid of all of the Jews and have one global government. You got to have an enemy to fight. And when you have an enemy to fight, then you can unite the entire world behind you, and you seize power. That was Hitler's plan. His enemy: the Jew. Al Gore's enemy, the U.N.'s enemy: global warming.

Ok, so this was on Glenn Beck's radio program yesterday morning. Between his radio show in the morning in which the Jews are to global warming as Hitler is to Al Gore, and the CNN show in the evening, Beck apparently forgot who is allowed to call who a Nazi and for what in his world. He compared Gore to Hitler that very day.

Lest you think this is a one time occurrence by Beck, here he is last year on An Inconvenient Truth:

"When you take a little bit of truth and then you mix it with untruth, or your theory, that's where you get people to believe. ... It's like Hitler. Hitler said a little bit of truth, and then he mixed in 'and it's the Jews' fault.'"

My question is not for serial moron Glenn Beck. My question is for CNN. How can you continue to have this man on your network? And Keith Olbermann, I love you man, but Beck shouldn't be today's worst person in the world. It's the person who gave him that air time.

Oh, and by the way, what do you suppose Lieberman, who complained yesterday about civility in our discourse, would have to say about that? Is he going to go on Beck's show again and talk about whether Al Gore is like Hitler? We know how much he loves Beck:

LIEBERMAN: Thank you, Glenn. We are proud of you, friend. Keep on going.

Hey, Joe, perhaps you should take you civility concerns to Beck's show? What about the vituperation toxicity of equating your former running mate to Hitler?
