Before this thread I didn't know who Glenn Beck was.

I wish I could go back to that time.
I saw him once when I was forced to sit in an emergency room waiting room for several hours with him screaming in the corner. That was the night before Van Jones' resignation.

The cover for Glenn Beck's book where he is dressed as an unnamed fascist general is totally appallingly awesome.  It's like an identifier for the closet Nazis of America.

This one?



The expression on his face makes me want to punch him. Which I guess is the desired effect.

One of the reasons I don't take Beck seriously is because, when I first heard about him, I did a bit of research to try to figure out what qualified him to be a political commentator.  You may not be surprised to learn that there are no qualifications.  He couldn't even manage to get a college degree, for Crissakes.

Neither did Hitler and apparently they dress the same!
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I think it's interesting that so many demagogues like Beck, and yeah Hitler, etc. have no qualifications of any sort, and yet still appeal to so many.  In fact, I sometimes wonder if that makes them even more appealing. "Glenn Beck don't got no college degree and he's smrt just like me!"

Not having an education is probably a benefit in the US. INtellectual elitism has been a buzzword for decades.
PDH!

Interestingly, my dad, who does not have a college degree, is enamored with guys like Beck and Rush.

The fact that in US we have loud-mouthed ignorant idiots paid very highly to be loud-mouthed ignorant idiots in public should be a deep national shame.

That was a while back.  These days, college degrees have become so devalued that they're essentially high school diplomas.
