Whaaaaat? Something useful from Glenn Beck?
Yesterday I was listening to No Agenda Netcast with John C. Dvorak and Adam Curry (#123). I've always been usefully entertained by Dvorak's tech columns and his skeptical view of just about everything. Adam Curry is the father of podcasting.
They spent a little time admiring a Glenn Beck segment with Democrat swift-boating apostate Pat Caddell called "A Look at Chicago-Style Politics".
Normally I would dismiss something like this as wingnuttia just stroking itself again, but this certainly is interesting:
BECK: America, does the name Whitacre, the guy who helped Rahm Emanuel make $16 million, does the name Whitacre ring a bell? Pat?They have a whole web of intrigue that goes along with this, including Emanuel's work with Wasserstein Perella, a Wall Street "deal company", where the $16 million came from a deal involving phone company SBC.
CADDELL: Because, when they appointed the new chairman of G.M., who announced the day of his appointment, I know nothing about the car business, his name was Edward Whitacre.
Say what you will about wingnuttia and its bright lights that shine only in one direction. But how these Obama-administration characters with a history of self-enrichment are handling the public interest certainly deserve more scrutiny from credible media. It's sad that these things are left for Glenn Beck.
