Random ramblings about someone who jerks my chain. I find it amazing that people buy into his crap.

I used to think he was OK 3 years ago. He was on MSNBC or something then. Now, he's a nutter.

He's what happens when insanity (medical) meets insanity (political) meets insanity (media).

I say he was a reasonably sensible person who eventually became power/money hungry and amped up his somewhat decent views to a crazy level.

My biggest problem with Beck is he's too damn smug to be taken too seriously.  He sometimes even acts like a two-year-old on his show, which of course can be amusing.  And his "tribute" to Obama on the President's birthday was uncalled for.

When it comes to pundits and political talk, give me Huckabee.

Or Bill.  Big smile

Aside from cartoons and commentary from my evil liberal overlords I can honestly say I don't bother with him.

Oh to add on, what's really entertaining on Foxnews is Dennis Miller on O'Reilly Thumbs Up

 ^ Miller on O'Reilly is must-watch TV..  Glenn Beck is a penis that can talk.

I hear you are the AntiChrist. I have yet to see proof you aren't and therefore you are. That is Glenn Beck logic and it is the reason no one should feel bad about taking "cheap shots" at him.

Both sides have their clowns.  What is most worrisome to me is the extent to which "entertainment news" has supplanted quality, dry, reasonably objective journalism....and the extent to which the public buys into it.  Beck and Olbermann, Hannity, Rachel Maddow, Michael Moore, talk radio, or the ladies on The View.  It's all mostly entertainment, and  many consider this stuff their primary news source.  I think that's a problem. 

Viewed in context these programs are fine, but their domination is a sign the country has some problems in our delivery and consumption of facts we can count on to make decisions.

Excellent point Jim.

In fact, I get my news mostly from The Onion, which is just as reliable as most of these media outlets.
