Ever notice how most conspiratorial thinking and flagrant contradictions come from conservative mouths? I've heard a great theory about it....

Those who consider themselves to be "rabid individualists" feel more pressure from a society they view as oppressed, and their oppression can only come from the most outrageous, controversial, and unpredictable means that can be imagined...their feelings can't possibly be a product of subjective perception...it has to be external forces..

I think Glenn Beck is bordering on adorable and sorrowful at this point.
