    Glenn Beck is a piece of ****, and anyone who listens to him and believes him is an idiot. He doesn't even believe the garbage he's spewing.

    I wonder how many posts before some winger comes in and posts disparaging comments about people who watch TDS.

    So, when Glenn Beck is personally affected, the health care system is a terrible trainwreck that requires immediate correction. When the memory of his own experience begins to fade, and political circumstances differ, it's the "best in the world."

    Beck reminds me of the Tale of the Crack Fox (via a different context),

    <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dCuUnTJgD9M&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dCuUnTJgD9M&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

    Self-proclaimed local boy goes to the big city to make good, self-pitying, blaming invisible eugenics-promoting Nazis & gays for all the world's ills. And, above all else, saying and doing whatever it takes to get into every (Nielsen) home, for just a moment's warmth.

    Are you denying what that video just showed?

    Also: If Beck and O'Reilly have better ratings, that's because the majority of people watch those shows at those times slots ... so if you believe that the majority decides what's good and what's bad ... you must believe Obama is good, right?

    Last time I posted something about Glenn Beck in a Glenn Beck thread I was told it wasn't relevant.

    Couldn't agree more. Better to be silent and thought a fool than open one's mouth and remove all doubt.

    The second video above --- I don't even know what to say about that.

    Yes, it's the same reason reality TV beats out "smart" shows. People like to watch stupidity. As a country, we have a fascination with it.

    I've said it before, folks like Beck do more harm than good to their own ideals. Facts are facts. No need to pepper them up and make them look like more than they are.


    Its strange, I can't watch CNN for any extended period of time, but can't watch Fox News for any extended period of time either. I'm just screwed.

    Advertisers are leaving Beck in the dust. Geico, Berkshire Hathaway, Procter & Gamble, Sargento Cheese, and Progressive Insurance have all pulled their ads. While Travelocity doesn't specifically buy ad time during Beck's show, some of their ads do air in his time slot. They came out today and requested that their ads not be aired during his show.
