Glenn Beck

I'm getting up early tomorrow morning to go to Borders.  I know shopping's usually done on Black Friday, but Saturday Glenn Beck (below) is going to be signing his new book, An Inconvenient Book, at Borders!  I have to go get his autograph!  I have a 25% coupon to spend there anyway, so this came an a good time.  =)

If you don't know who Glenn Beck is, he's a political scientist and talk show and radio host.  He's really good and putting things how they are, and really isn't into covering things up with wish-wash.  He likes to crack jokes on Paris a lot too, so you can't really say anything wrong about him there.  Unfortunately, he can be a religious bigot, grouping "Muslim" and "terrorist" into the same category.

I withdraw what I said before about Beck being a religious bigot.

In his new book he clearly draws the line between regular Muslims and extermists.  He makes a point of saying most followers of Islam aren't terrorists.  He also mentioned that he'd read the Koran and said that Islam is a generally peaceful religion.  It's nothing like the misconception of "KILL THE INFIDELS!"
