I won't say that many people hold all of the ideas, or that they even form the mainstream of Republican/conservative thinking. But within a segment they are all arguments swirling around. But to be somewhat fair, when Bush was president you could find all kinds of crap about how Bush was actively working to dismantle our country (I could find plenty of examples laying out exactly who he'd go about canceling the 2008 presidential election so that he could remain in power forever). Generally I resist the notion that Bush and his administration was acting out of overt malignant desires (even if they had malignant results).
Glenn Beck, however, has skirted or crossed the line on these and many worse. And I will admit that I tend to assume that anybody who says they listen to him with anything less than smirking disdain may have been lobotomized in the past. But that is rude of me to make such judgments without checking for scars.
