For those of you outside the U.S. who don't know who Glen Beck is, let me try to explain. He is a right-wing commentator on a faux "news" channel who believes the world is being run by a "New World Order" of a secret cabal of wealthy families who control liberal politicians and the mainstream media in order to turn the U.S. into a facist, socialist, communist state so they can...I've lost the train of thought. It's really hard to follow. He claims it's all in some book by another Mormon crackpot who was laughed out of the conservative movement decades ago. He is often moved to tears on national television about this nonsense.
It would all be completely laughable if people weren't showing up at Presidential events heavily armed. And for some reason, that's legal in this country. You can't bring a gun on a plane (yet), but you can bring loaded weapons to a Presidential address, no problem. To quote Yakov Smirnoff, "what a country."

The absolutely worst date of all would be having sex with Glenn Beck in a dumpster while he's crying.
Oh, yeah. I know who that guy is —I watch The Daily Show online.
Fascinating how the extreme-right wingers are trying to convince (and succeeding) that the other guys are the fascists.
Could you imagine what would have happened to the poor soul who would have dared to show up to a Bush's speech packing a gun? How many years in Guantanamo would that stunt cost you?
PS: But wouldn't a date with Rush Limbaugh be even worse? At least with the other guy you know that he's human, because he's capable of crying ;-)
I hate a date with an undiagnosed schizophrenic who had a complete psychotic breakdown in the middle of the date. Had to take her to the hospital because she was seeing numbers that were telling her things.
King Rat, did it ever occur to you that you might have been her worst date...thus triggering the breakdown?
It's very possible. I could be a walking version of the anime that causes seizures.
