Glenn Beck called hurricane survivors in New Orleans "scumbags," said he "hates" 9-11 families

Nationally syndicated Clear Channel radio host Glenn Beck referred to survivors of Hurricane Katrina who remained in New Orleans as "scumbags." Also, after acknowledging that nobody "in their right mind is going to say this out loud," Beck attacked victims of the disaster in general and the families of victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, saying: "I didn´t think I could hate victims faster than the 9-11 victims."

From the September 9 broadcast of The Glenn Beck Program:

BECK: Let me be real honest with you. I don´t think anybody on talk radio -- I don´t think anybody in their right mind is going to say this out loud -- but I wonder if I´m the only one that feels this way. Yesterday, when I saw the ATM cards being handed out, the $2,000 ATM cards, and they were being handed out at the Astrodome. And they actually had to close the Astrodome and seal it off for a while because there was a near-riot trying to get to these ATM cards. My first thought was, it´s not like they´re going to run out of the $2,000 ATM cards. You can wait! You know, stand in line. Maybe it´s because I´m the kind of guy, when I go to a buffet, I either have to be first in line, or I´m the very last. Because I know there´s going to be extra food, and I just won´t stand in the line. I´ll wait until all the suckers go get their food, and then I´ll go get mine. Or if I´m really hungry, I hate to admit this -- and really, I don´t even have to be really hungry. If I´m really being a pig, I will kind of, like, hang out around the buffet table before the line is -- you know, chat with people right around the table: "Oh, they just opened the line! Let´s go!" And then you´re first in line.
