Glenn Beck Attacks IAVA But We've Got Their Back

Oh boy folks. I am gonna have to calm down and do a proper post and link and stuff but am I pissed at this. According to ThinkProgress.org after a caller to Glenn Beck's show talked about finding out that Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America is financed by MoveOn.org (It's not, that's a falsehood) Beck reacted:

Beck was incensed, claiming that Soros, MoveOn, the SEIU and the communists are organizing “under the guise of labor unions or something as innocuous as sounding as, you know, the Iraqi and Afghanistan Veterans Foundation [sic]. But it is Soros and uh, communist and uh, radical money.” They are “duping people in as much as they can,” Beck said. Media Matters has the segment:

Sooooo here's my answer to Mr. Beck. As a big "F You!" to you Mr. Beck, you loon, I suggest everyone and I mean EVERYONE who reads this to go to IAVA.ORG and donate. And spread the word. Let's show Mr. Beck that not only is he a stark raving mad lunatic but that we have these veterans' backs, even if he can't control his ignorance and idiocy in attacking good people.

I also recommend StopBeck.com as a means to let Beck know how you feel. But more important, help out those who have fought for us when we get to stay home on our computers or safe in our cozy basic cable studios.
