PDH!

Your froth-at-the-mouth hatred of Glenn Beck warms my heart.  :)

I find the guy an annoying blowhard personally, but I mean he's no better or worse than say Al Franken was when he had that Air America show.

Only terrorist sympathizers find this amusing.

Not those who sympathize with Tim McVeigh, David Koresh and the Ruby Ridge crew.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

As someone who dislikes Beck, I found that clip tasteless and lame.

I don't know, I don't know if Al Franken suggested that people should avoid flu shots because the government might be puting microchips in there to track you.  Glenn Beck is one of those rare people who deserves to die in a fire.  For one thing, He's a Randian (though apparently a half-assed one since he's also an observant mormon).  Also he was a Catholic and spurn mother church for the Mormon heresy.
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

Beck said that?  :huh:

Also, I couldn't think of anyone else other then Franken to compare Beck to, but I should clarify that I think Al is awesome, or at least he seemed to be so when I met him at a book signing in the mid 90s.

I didn't find anything funny about that clip.  Do we need any more reminders that Glenn Beck is not dead?

This just in: Generalissimo Glenn Beck is still not dead.

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.

I'd be surprised if Beck said anything like that, not that I'm going to try and defend him much one way or another. But I watch his show sometimes, depends what he's talking about. He does do some substantive shows - had a bunch of doctors on both sides of the health care issue, and does that kind of thing sometimes. He tends to very vocal but not crazy headed, and tries to back up what he says with info, video, stats and guests.

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

I wish I could go back to that time.

:lol:
No, I'm not.  This is not even my favorite, but it gets points for being anti-Glenn Beck.  I'm actually fairly mellow (even quiet) in real life most of the time.  That's probably a big reason I come here. 

You are way off comparing Al Franken to Beck, Caliga.  Beck has no real equivalent in the modern Left, but I'd have to compare him to the Yippies back in the day or something to find something reasonably close.  He's out there.  Far, far out there.
