It's a fascinating video you have gathered here. If you listen to the first few comments - wherein the object of the talk is not identified - you could very easily assume the speaker was referencing the tea party Republican Conservatives. Indeed, any student of history could draw no other conclusion. Yet - in a move that Goebbels would find most encouraging - they somehow manage to turn these arguments against the very victims they would like to target with the abuse they claim is targeted at them. It's masterful propaganda.

Most chilling, perhaps, is Beck's little talk near the end about "a Reichstag moment." He expresses fear about "another 9/11" that would trigger a reaction resulting in a Nazi-like takeover. In this, Beck and I share the same fear, although mine is based upon an accurate reading of what happened in Weimar Germany, whereas his is based upon the same calculation made by those actually responsible for the Reichstag fire. A good Nazi would first warn about the "socialists" ( or the Jews, or any one of "the other") burning down the Reichstag, and would then follow it up with surreptitiously torching the building while screaming "See? I told you so!" The follow-up would of course involve a takeover of government to protect it from these "others." 

Another interesting bit of rhetorical flourish is the repetition of the "National Socialist" part of the "National Socialist Peoples Party" It is simply impossible to believe that Limbaugh and Beck and these others are sufficiently ignorant to a degree that would cause them to conflate the Nazis with Socialists. Are they legitimately concerned about some important issue confronting the electorate? Or are they instead engaged in fear-mongering as a means of strengthening their own indefensible position? Again, Goebbels wrote the book on this and would be very proud of his acolytes.

Scary stuff, this. We've seen this show before...
