Anyone who knows anything about green movements, legislation, and popularization knows that the concept of framing is perhaps one of the most highly used tactics used by green activists and politicians to garner support for environmentalist causes. Basically, framing is the act of taking an issue and highlighting a more specific aspect of that issue to strike the interest and sympathy of supporters who might otherwise not have cared. Two of the most popular environmental frames are public health- based claims and economic claims.

A hard on for hate

This is a guy who gets a hard on for hate. Just look at his face. That is some hate’n ecstasy going on there.

I don’t believe in “Hell”, but if there was one this guy would be going there. Maybe one of his predecessors with experience in burning innocent women at the stake (not all that long ago) would do the honor of striking the match for Pastor Robertson’s bonfire.

Beckterial Infection

Today Glenn Beck met up with an unspecified number of his deluded followers to desecrate the memory of all that have suffered and died in the struggle for civil rights, not just in America, but worldwide. A Beckterial infection. Yes, that was one of my favorites from the twitterverse today, but the best post I saw is this one. An excerpt from Wonkette

“These callous clumps of cellulite have come to our Nation’s Capitol to piss through their Depends on the grave of Jesus Christ, our lord & savior. Monsters. Well, aren’t we a Proud Nation, with our giant sloganized smock-shirts and Chinese “American” flags and jumbo coolers full of corn syrup and cancer. “Restoring Honor?” More like “Confirming every stereotype about a ruined nation stuffed full of dumb white trash.”

Amen, Sister.

The crazy

Glenn Beck. The crazy. Same thing. Saturday he holds his Faux News promoted, “non-political” Restoring Honor rally. On the anniversary of MLK’s I Have a Dream speech. In the exact same place as that speech, but Glenn didn’t choose the date intentionally, he says. So does Glenn think he’s MLK reborn or Jesus Christ? After all, God told him to do it. He says. The crazy. Glenn Beck. Same thing.
