Here's the thing: Beck and UG are both funny - but in different ways.

I would say Glenn Beck is mentally stable. He has no soul or morals, but stable.

Quote:

With a deadpan, Beck insists that he is not political: "I could give a flying crap about the political process." Making money, on the other hand, is to be taken very seriously, and controversy is its own coinage. "We're an entertainment company," Beck says. He has managed to monetize virtually everything that comes out of his mouth. He gets $13 million a year from print (books plus the ten-issue-a-year magazine Fusion). Radio brings in $10 million. Digital (including a newsletter, the ad-supported Glennbeck.com and merchandise) pulls in $4 million. Speaking and events are good for $3 million and television for $2 million. Over several days in mid-March Beck allowed a reporter to follow him through his multimedia incarnations, with one exception, his 5 p.m. daily show on Fox News, which attracts just under 3 million viewers. (FORBES has a relationship with that channel via Forbes on Fox.)

Quote:

"I don't necessarily believe that [what Beck says] is reflective of his own personal politics--I don't even know if he has personal politics," says Michael Harrison, publisher of Talkers, a trade magazine devoted to talk radio. "I see him as a performer."

I prefer liberty to all other social conditions, as you know. Beck does too. The enlightened thinkers know he does -- having experience of the man. The not-enlightened cannot believe it. The Socialists have to choose between believing it and remaining socialists. Since remaining socialist is an unworthy and blood-tainted goal anyway...

Because Beck only proposes liberty for those he support his opinions and version of "liberty". Beck is a hate and fear mongering tool who pictures himself as the savior of the right.

He also is a scam artist. All you have to do is check out the gold company he tells his listeners to invest in to see they are nothing more than thieves who pay Beck and sucker in more victims.

Stop. Please. You're killing me.

footfootfoot · 11-04-2010, 08:15 PM

I don't think the world is ready for Dana to become a woman in full.

Clodfobble · 11-04-2010, 09:44 PM

But you have to admit, it would be totally hot.

footfootfoot · 11-04-2010, 09:56 PM

I got goosebumps just typing that.

morethanpretty · 11-05-2010, 06:39 AM

If Dana isn't a woman in full now, I tremble to think what she would be like once she was...I'm for it!

xoxoxoBruce · 11-05-2010, 09:34 AM

She just needs a man, to beat her when she offends Muhammad.
