looks like? you have an interesting view actually about jobless benefits. i want to show people what you had to say and what is now a celebrated interview about jobless benefits. listen to this. you can make more money on unemployment than you can going down and getting one of those jobs that is an honest job but it doesn t pay as much, and so that s what s happened to us is that we have put in such entitlement into our government that we really have spoiled our citizenry and said, you don t want the jobs that are available. so you re saying to these tens of thousands sitting on their couches, they re all spoiled, they don t want to go out and get a job and i m going to cut off your benefits. that s your attitude no, now, come on, john. but you said they re spoiled. i said it had spoiled our citizenry. that s a little different. that s almost like it hadn t occurred to sharron angle until that moment that trashing the unemployed in the middle of the biggest economic cri
country was prospering in ways it had not previously under chin clin. they were protesting the cuts to government that would hurt their quality of life. it might not get as much airtime as the tea party anti-government protest but that s in fact some of what is going on out there in america now. glenn: how about p.b.s.? how about p.b.s.? there is a very important incident described in this book that occurred in 1965. when the john burke society, organization, the new americanist groups resemble. the ones who are marching in washington and holding tea parties. essentially, very extremists groups that view politics in a spontori spo conspiratorial w. glenn: thank you for that. extremist, anti-government, conspiratorial and radicals. if somebody took the time in the last couple of weeks i can t imagine how much time it took to go through the transcripts of this show and

of this, you know, overhyped attacks either from the left or the right. i never heard the word regime before. have you? no. the point is it s out there. it didn t get the attention and the question is, does this stuff just have more of a platform than it ever has before. but i want to get to another point. you mean the john burke society has a voice on radio, we re now hearing the language when those right-wingers call eisenhower a communist and his brother, all of a sudden that kind of loony tune talk has found its way on the airwaves, father coglin. i don t think joe mccarthy called this government a regime. let me get to this point about the president which is, i thought you pointed out something very interesting in the beginning how he calls out his media enemies essentially like nixon. unlike a lot of presidents, this president brings this issue with the media up constantly. to the point of where you know, on one hand you can say gee, she
