GOP Congressman: Glenn Beck Is “Trading on Fear”
The confrontation between Rep. Bob Inglis (R-S.C.) and some conservative constituents has been getting a lot of play today — Inglis told people to stop watching Glenn Beck, and he got loudly booed. The video Jonathan Martin found adds some compelling context, as Inglis explains to the crowd that Beck is making them fearful.
“„They suggest that you watch Glenn Beck. Here’s my suggestion. Turn that television off when he comes on. Let me tell you why. You want to know why? He’s trading on fear. You know what? Here’s what I think. If you trade on fear, what you’re doing is, you’re not leading. You’re just following fearful people. So if you want to lead, stop being fearful.
