While David Neiwert is on vacation this week, covering Beck unfortunately fell to me today and my team had this video waiting in my inbox. And as usual he was chock full of crazy only today he had on neocon extraordinaire John Bolton, the UN hater as his companion. Watching Beck and Bolton together makes one realize that our media seems to be dropping tabs of acid before they come on the air. And this was about as trippy as it gets. During their kaleidoscope adventures, Beck was whigging out because Hillary Clinton talked about India and hoped that they don't make the same mistakes when it comes to global warming. To Beckenstein, that means it's time to call her part of the Apology Tour. John Bolton was passing the Bill Kristol torch as Glenn Beck uttered this whimsical nonsense.

Bolton: I think this is the time to stand up. I think the president's program is in real trouble and I think once he starts losing as it looks like he will on health care, he'll lose on other issues.

Beck: I’m telling you this guy is dangerous. He’s never lost before. He won’t understand it. He won’t understand look how – he, uh, is like, who are you to question me? I mean, this guy is practically an imperial president now. When he starts to lose and people start to question him and push him back against the wall, he’s not gonna know how to react.

Bolton: But that makes me more optimistic...

These goofs are revealing in the hope that the president will fail at a critical time in our history. This encapsulates the republican/conservative/Beckenstein/Teabagger movement that began right out of the gate. It's saddening to see this unfold, but maybe if I drop a little window pain, I'll feel the same way.

As Think Progress notes:

Beck’s dire prediction is of course similar to that of Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), who said, “If we’re able to stop Obama on this it will be his Waterloo. It will break him.” Beck, whose show is quite popular, is feeding the sentiment of his right-wing base who are now urging each other to “to throw off and alter the abusive government by peacefully recalling and removing from office the President of the United States.”

Whenever idiots like these two make me want to blow a gasket, I just think...

Senator Al Franken.

Ahh...

Al Frankin is a Harvard educated man. acting as a comedian was a job for him. He now has changed his VOCATION.

thanks for sparing us watching these two
turds..we don't like to brush our teeth over the toilet.
especially when the bowl and seat look like beck and bolton's
lips.

That Beck accuses Obama of seeking an 'imperial presidency' when Bush's theories of the unitary executive and a weak-spined Democratic minority gave us an imperial prezzy-duncy.

All of this is outright revenge for 8 years of Bush bashing.

Of course the top 0.5% who own the media love this stuff the real agenda will remain unopposed as long as they can masquerade as their own opposition.

Sounds like the repugs reaction to last year's election to me.

Good sense, innocence, cripplin' and kind.
Dead kings, many things I can't define.
Oh Cajun spice, sweats and blushers your mind.
Incense and peppermints, the color of thyme.

Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win, but nothing to lose.

Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns.
Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around.
Look at yourself, look at yourself,
Yeah, yeah.
Look at yourself, look at yourself,
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah.

Tune-a by the cockeyed world in two.
Throw your pride to one side, It's the least you can do.
Beatniks and politics, nothing is new.
A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view.

Sha-la-la, sha-la-la....

After W basically establishing a Dictatorship, Beck's got the stones to declare an Obama Imperial Presidency? "Bring on the window pane and sunshine, Rainbow, my love!"
Huh, what he say? Dude, Dave's not here!
If Beck/Bolton are agin' it, I'm for it!

Ooh Ooh! I wanna live in a grass hut!

Imagine how many more people would have housing if we were open minded enough to consider yurts.

)O(

I prefer women in grass skirts

And I'm the lawnmower.

so you can start living instead of chasing after things. Of course Viagra will keep you copulating for awhile longer. . . . LOL

window pain and women in grass skirts! I need a trip to San Francisco to see if I can make that happen.

Yes, a great idea.

Booosh

Beavis and Butthead are alive and well on Faux Gnus.

With all due respect, as I do visit this site often, The case against Glen Beck has been proven long ago. He is a total whack. Actually this nobody Beck gets (I would guess) 40% of his air-time by bloggers like you who continue to give him a forum and thus prick the curiosity of viewers everywhere. A sort of internet ROPE-A-DOPE you might say. Beck does not continue to exist for his "right-on political philosophy, but rather (like Ann Coulter and Rush Limburger) he whores himself for the outrageous things that come out of his mouth and YOU in fact help him.

I want to apologize... for airing Glenn Beck.

Have clean out grass hut and hunt down woolly mammoth. Then need hit things with clubs. Ooo Oooo Ahhh Ahhh.

Ah sweet memories of youth. Stawberry Alarm Clock and The Electric (Had to much to dream last night) Prunes; two groups I always put on the Jukebox at our local hangout. So much so that my friends would get on me about.......step away from the jukebox or we will break your fingers.

Now it is these f&^!n Repukes I have to listen too.

Is it just me or are things moving really slow on this site today? Plus my name and password are having trouble staying logged in. A republican hamster must have sneaked into one of the wheels and he wants the site to fail.

I've decided that either Beck is really insane or he's really close to being there. Creating the idea that the president is going to go all crazy if he doesn't get this health care reform bill through is like trying to make him sound as crazy as beck. The one thing that beck is good at is creating bullshit.

Beck = Curly, Bolton = Larry & Pat Buchannan = Moe.

Very good - that works.

Is that the official coffee of Glen Beck?

Why doesn't Faux Noise just go all out and put paint make-up and a red ball on Beck's nose, have him make his normal stupid faces and show the world the uneducated, ignorant clown he is.

beck and bolton are two AMAZINGLY stupid people...
So stupid, in fact, that they make bush look like an intellectual.

It’s like he’s a performing monkey.
Dance Bobo dance.

I think the title of “most worthless TV station” goes to Faux.
If you watch Faux, let me know who you are so I can come over and kick you in the head.

Don't put us monkeys in the same category as Beck.

John Amato...I feel for you. I couldn't stand to watch Beck; the guy is such a moron.

Beck is the one who is "one dangerous guy," stirring up the masses with his hateful nonsense.

I've noticed a number of double posts here....and things are very slow for me on this site this morning....wonder if there's a problem?

Is that the official coffee of Glen Beck?

are we sure that Glen Beck has stoped drinking.he should be investigated, it is clear that he has some tpye of unaddressed problem.

Glen Beck says this shit every single day. The real question is, why are you still faithfully parroting him? We all get the idea; Glen Beck is a big bag of gas, and he says crazy stuff about Obama on a daily basis. Got it. Could we have more entries relevant to what Obama is doing, is not doing, what the dems are up to, the state of government, etc? And maybe a bit less about every crazy word that comes out of FOX nutjobs mouths?

If not, recommendations of good blogs/websites where I could read actual progressive news, not just the latest crazy shit out of some wingbats ass?

It's our job to call him out, right?
My daughter's initials are M.T. She's blonde. I bought her a baseball cap when she was a teenager, and had her initials put on it. She wore it proudly for years until someone pointed out what it said. Even she laughed. She's not really MT headed. When I saw your name, it reminded me of that family story. Thank you. Not that you are MT headed, either.

Wow -- Can you SMELL the desperation?

And it's the same in every quarter. They don't know what to do. And it's completely making them insane with desperation.

They continue to pretend most of the country feels the way they do - more wishful thinking on their part.

They're pathetic.

beck didn't check to see if his smoothie was ready yet by putting his face in the food processor again did he?

the picture of beck...you guys wanna be liberal fox news, huh?

next you're going to mark democrats with sex scandals as republicans.

"but maybe if I drop a little window pain, I'll feel the same way."

Actually, I am hoping Bleck gets pushed through a window pane, so that he can feel a little window pain.
