The America of Glenn Beck and the tea party

This is the America that the tea baggers "want back". The post WWII, pre-Vietnam days, where everything was fine. Just ask the Cleavers.



Which of these aspects of Beck's World is most offensive in a 2010 context?
A) A woman's place is in the home, and if they're in the home, why not be in the kitchen? Giving me a blowjob.
B) Women do alright with modern conveniences, but if you take away the blender, they're shit.
C) Women can't handle the rugged outdoors, where us cavemen peel pre-pressed burgers off of wax paper?
D) That "less government regulation" will allow a return to the time when asbestos gloves could be sold?

Here's what else was happening in Beck's hunky-dory post WWII period: thalidomide babies because of a lack of government oversight of medicine, civil rights protests for basic rights, beatings and dogs being turned on protesters and lots of other good nostalgic stuff.

It was a great period, if you were a white man.

Yeah, let's go back.
