Glenn beck is an inauthentic asshole

I wasn’t even going to comment on this hack. I had written a blog a few weeks back about this cry baby, erased it and then I had to go and open the Times this weekend and read their story on Fox News’s Mad, Apocalyptic, Tearful Rising Star. It comments on the spectacular rise to popularity at an unpopular time slot on Fox (5 pm) for a comedian who was fired from CNN to a “preacher” of entertainment politics.

I find it grossly ironic Glenn has regular segments titled “Constitution Under Attack” and “Economic Apocalypse,” when both basis for such discussions are rooted during the entire and last year respectively of W Bush presidency. His, Rush’s, and Hannity’s “inciting [of] rhetoric” as Jeffrey Jones of Old Dominion University puts it, has certainly done more for the conservative base than any of the real (or fake *cough* Palin) leaders of the GOP. It’s such popularity that I too am “mad as hell” more at the audience of these puppets who get their thought, talking points and even political philosophy from talking heads explicitly and apply backwards reasoning to their choices for leaders based on these comedians of leadership.

Here’s a recient clip of this rodeo clown going on about his worrisome love for this country and fake crying as he tries to get his viewers pulled in. He’s definitely touching something, it’s not a passion nerve though:

Shep Smith on Fox also has some great comments about this guy: “We love the program [because it’s on Fox] but we don’t listen to it”:



Beck continually says ‘if you take what I say as gospel, you’re an idiot’ and that sir might accurately characterize the 1.2 million people that tune into you daily to listen. Glenn stay in your fear chamber, where you feel safest and you can’t infect normal Americans with your evangelical bull shit.

UPDATE: Maybe Colbert Says this better:
