17. "Thinning the Herd"
Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck on the recent Bill Ayers interview of GMA.
O’Reilly: But when I go out on the street and I say, "William Ayers, does that bother you?" Just as many Americans say, "No, I don't care." What is that mentality when they don't care about a guy like this? What does that tell you?

Beck: Cakes and circuses and too many dumb people. I mean, we should thin out the herd, you know what I mean?

Why no, what do you mean? As one of those “dumb people” who’s not especially bothered by Barack Obama’s tangential relationship with Bill Ayers, I’d really like to know.
Beck: ….There is a disconnect in America. We are at the place where the Constitution hangs in the balance, and I think we're at a crossroads here. We're still about here , where the roads are just starting to split, but pretty soon, this side and this side are not gonna understand each other at all, because we're living in different universes.

And then what, Glenn? Is that when you guys start “thinning the herd?”
