No, Sarah. Glenn Beck is NOT the "history teacher we wish we had". Ken Burns is.

[jmondine]

Beck is the Janitor we wish we had, a position much more suited to his intellect. And yours.

[H2O Man]

1. It depends, really.

If you dropped acid before class, Beck would have been a giggle.

11. Glenn Beck is that guy who hides under the stairs and tries to lick your shoes

as you pass.

[BrklynLiberal]

13. Yesss Ken Burns and Bill Moyers and Howard Zinn

[LeftyMom]

16. No Sarah, my history teacher was a semi-retired civil rights lawyer.

He told great stories about the farmworker rights movement, taught us the words to old protest songs, and made us do original research. He scraped things smarter than Glenn Beck off of his shoes.

17. I commented on one of glen's vid's at youtube

after proving he is an uneducated loon with no real concept of accurate History... The argument raged for about three days... then nothing... all of a sudden four or five responce comments when I tried to point out how loony those were I suddenly realized I had been prevented from responding.
no big deal really until all the posters then said I had "lost the argument and given up. because I was not responding." fuckers

18. he'd suck as a spelling teacher, too

[kentauros]
