Today, on Meet the Press, both Michael Moore and Glenn Beck made some of the same points that I tried to make earlier today, before I saw their comments, in my “Urban Liberals, Listen Up.” You can scroll down the transcript to read their comments. I thought Beck was particularly compelling.

I actually don’t know Glenn Beck very well. But several years ago he did bring to my attention something very important that my fellow activists never had: Dr. King began the Montgomery movement with a comprehensive nonviolence pledge for this supporters. Maybe I should check him out more.
