This morning, while he and his sidekick were trashing McCain (yes -- they hate him ... they think he's not a Republican, but some sort of leftist), Glenn said, "If I hear 'my friends ...' one more time, my head will explode."

Me too, Glenn. Me, too.

1. OMG. Hell just froze over. I agree with him, too. And kudos
to you for being brave enough to listen to him.

My son watches him sometimes, just for a laugh. He says it can be very entertaining. But for me, that's about as fun as when I saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre way back when (ran out of the theater in fright).

2. All of our heads have already exploded. Welocme to the club.

3. Beck has a decently high entertainment value.

I watch him from time to time, its nice to get a little laughter from conservative commentators instead of the pure nausea I get from the Faux talking heads. Plus he's been unafraid to explore the economic collapse, though he STILL has to talk about leftist hippies hugging trees when he does it.

4. Glen Beck makes me sick to my stomach! He's the worst
person in my TV world.

5. He's pretty bad, but the title for me by far goes to Hannity or O'Really
I feel like Beck at some level KNOWS he's not to be taken seriously...

7. Hannity is the greatest POS on TV.

6. That's a switch. He was a huge McCain supporter in 2000.
He was on the local radio here in the Tampa Bay area before he got boosted to national. He actually ran a mostly non-political morning talk show that was mostly humorous. He was not thrilled with Bush but actively supported McCain. However, he is obviously a whore. As soon as he went national, he turned into a hard right talking head Limblow clone. I never listened to him after that and will not watch his show.
