Glenn Beck: Cheering for sanity to fail on Earth Hour

Earth Hour doesn’t appeal to Glenn Beck.

No sane or ecologically useful project or program would. He’s nuts, literally.

Beck stars in his own remake of "Idiocracy" as he cheers the failur of Earth Hour at Glenn Beck: Earth Hour = Failure. ("Idiocracy" is the film in which the average IQ on earth has fallen to moron level 50 years in the future.) Beck notes:
… perhaps the final nail in the coffin that Earth day [sic--it's Earth Hour. -- Ed.] was an epic failure even though billions participated, I mean, not that it was a failure...
Point being…what??? I truly have to guess:
  • He's hoping to create more pollution during Earth Hour? Or...
  • He wants Earth Hour to fail so that ExxonMobil will gleefully sponsor the new show he's developing--"The Day We Pooped on the Earth--and Made Millions"??
And oh, yes--I always go to Glenn Beck’s “Spotlight on Science” for science information. Why?
  • His show is "America's number one source for science and science-related items." Hey, it must be true if he said so!
  • He’s the smartest scientist I know--and the only one to cry on television. Next he'll sing "Tears of a Clown" on his show to complete the "I'm a real show-biz kind of guy" package
  • He's the member of the Union of A Skeptical Scientist (UASS)--a rival of the Union of Concerned Scientists
  • He's got a pair of science-nerd glasses. Oops, I forgot--he doesn't read
  • Maybe he got his training at a "union" hall--not the Union of Concerned Scientists

Is Glenn Beck crying "OxyMoron"?


Glenn Beck is a wight-wing wacko we can all worry about. Why? Well, for one he sheds tears on air because, he says, he "loves my country". (Stephen Colbert mocked Beck on The Colbert Report, choking up and saying "I'm sorry. I just love Glenn Beck's sanity. And I fear for it.")


Hunh? Tears, after Darth W and Darth Cheney have already left office? Isn't that too little, too late--and for the wrong people???

Excerpt from Real Time with Bill Maher (found on Noel Sheppard's right-wing site):
BILL MAHER, HOST: Listening to people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck these days, I cannot figure out whether these right-wingers are more dangerous when they're in power or when they're out of power. Because when they're out of power, their paranoia goes off the charts. This Glenn Beck guy, I wouldn't even give him the time of day except he's a big star now on Fox and a lot of people believe him, and he's talking about FEMA concentration camps. He says, "We are headed towards socialism, totalitarianism beyond your wildest imagination." But apparently not beyond his wildest imagination.

Let's do a hypocrisy test.

The Insane Clown (without a Posse) of TV political commentators, Glenn Beck has dropped an oxymoron into the middle of his Values list at his new 912 Project: moderation.

Just for fun, try saying these two words together:

Glenn Beck. Moderation.

Glenn Beck. Moderation.

Whaaaatttt??? Can anyone do this without giggling????

Let's replace some of these values with those he acts on. Hmmm...here are some juicy choices:

  • Fear
  • Paranoia
  • Hate
  • Disgust
  • Insanity
  • Ego (e.g., he puts his name in the web address of the 912 Project...his TV show...his website...open yer eyes!)

Freaking mother of God! Get me out of crazed socialist America, Glenn!!!! President chocolate Jesus is coming to get me--and he's got his ACLU card with him! (Have you actually seen one of those things??? Razor sharp, cuts to the heart of every issue--it's a weapon, for God's sake!)

Good God, Bill Maher and Jon Stewart are next in line!!!

Okay, I give up: I'm goin' to Oklahoma to buy me a gun. Maybe I'll steal the biggest SUV I kin ta git there...singin' "I'm an Okie from Muskogee..."
