Glenn Beck is no stranger to Godwin’s Law. His willingness to compare anything and everything to Nazism or the holocaust is reckless, irresponsible and disrespectful.  It’s also one of the reasons that our media accountability effort exists and continues.

Just how far can Glenn Beck take this? Well, he’s even tied churches that preach social justice to Nazism. Yes. In GlennBeckistan, Christian churches are like the Nazis because they include social justice in their gospels.

Glenn’s reliance on Godwin’s Law has earned rebukes from a wide range of groups from the ADL to Bread For The World to Christian churches/organizations.  But, The Daily Show’s Lewis Black provides the sharpest rebuke of Glenn Beck’s exploitation of Nazi and Holocaust references:
