Glenn Beck's Dose of Common Sense for America
Pajamas Media ^ | July 6 | Bernard Chapin

In my family I am an island, the lone conservative and sole person to ever vote Republican. This has resulted in few political discussions coming up in my presence. However, the other day while speaking to my mother — a devout leftist who regularly refers to the hosts of MSLSD by their first names — the beltway sledge seeped into our conversation. I could not resist expressing disgust over the bizarre cult that has formed around our shallow and foppish president, Barack Obama. I wondered aloud why leftists seem uniformly incapable of criticizing any of their co-religionists. My mother took exception and countered with the ubiquitous Democratic debating tactic of “I know you are but what am I.”

She claimed that it is our side which drinks the Kool-Aid regarding politics and dared me, as a member of the opposition, to say something critical about an ideological teammate. I thought for a moment and proffered, “I think there’s something wrong with Glenn Beck.” My mother, feeling conciliatory, said, “Yes, I agree. There is something wrong with Glenn Beck.”..

Who needs gb if you already have a PC???

he is just a successful opportunist/stooge for faux bs’in on things everyone already knows, while at the same time he badmouths the topics he’s afraid to touch and his masters will not allow him to touch, e.g., birthers, truthers, ml, those “camps,” etc.

Beck is alright, been listening to him for years. Pretty solid conservative even if he does steal his material from Savage, Rush and Hannity abit. His TV show has some top notch guests on there and lord knows he’s better than that ignoramus OReilly with his muddled and confused thinking. I know Levin doesn’t like him and shares your view that he is a faux conservative who sometimes parodies himself into being inane.

Yep, even spoiled food when hungry is better than 0’pinhead—but that’s as far as I’ll go.
