Bizarro Beck: What It Would Be Like If Glenn Beck Made Sense All The Time (VIDEO)

As you may have seen, last night history was made when Jon Stewart found himself agreeing with Glenn Beck on something, calling Beck "far more reasonable" than Senator John McCain on the issue of reading the Times Square bombing suspect his Miranda rights. So there you have it. Glenn Beck: reasonable, rational guy. This got us thinking. What would Glenn Beck's show be like if he made sense all the time? Maybe a little something like this:

If this is what Glenda Beck sounds like sober maybe he should start drinking excessively again!

Actually, there wasn't most editorial magic there. Everything that was put there were his exact words, and pretty much in context. What really amazes me is that it appears that someone at the Huffington Post really watches show instead of just watching thirty second clips on Jon Stewart and they still don't get it.

Now see, that's why I want to be an editor. I've always said the movie is made in the editing room. If an editor...or army of them...can make Glen Beck look like a rational kina interesting human being, then off to editing school I go....

For a minute there, i almost jumped upped and cried!

The Ed Show on MSNBC just had some clips of Phony Palin trying to inflame the NRA
convention, crazy stuff of course, "Obama and pals will try to take away all of your
guns and ammo!!! "

And a clip of nutty Beck at a college graduation, as if he deserved to
talk to any of them, doing his PHONY crying and whining
bit.

What a CLOWN !

Two minutes, ten seconds of common sense in his thousands of hours on the air. Congratulations on finding those two minutes.

And please give the producers hazardous duty pay for sitting through the rest of it.

Glenn Beck said he never thought he'd be on a news network, and he's not!

Ah, how the mighty must struggle ...

GLENN BECK SAYS HIS WANING POPULARITY DUE TO ALIEN ABDUCTION … BY LIBERAL ALIENS … OR SOMETHING EQUALLY APOCALYPTIC

NEW YORK, NY — In his customary stretch limo, Glenn Back swept down from his sprawling $4.25 million mansion in New Canaan, Connecticut to the tony offices of his production company, Mercury Radio Arts in Manhattan, and was royally pissed.

The Los Angeles Times had quoted “people close to Beck” — i.e. in Beck’s own company — saying that the reason why the ratings of the uber-star of apocalyptic right-wing hysterics were waning on Fox News (down 30% from January to April 2010) was because of … daylight saving time in March.

I am absolutely stunned by the lack of intellectual integrity on your part. Your journalists behave like immature junior-high kids. If you have ANY intellectual gumption AT ALL, you'd refute him point by point instead of hurling emotional attacks at him!!! NO WONDER you can't be taken seriously!!! Furthermore, if you read the comments below, you'll see that a lot of your readers follow your lead!! Pathetic lack of maturity and intelligence. SHOW HIM WHERE HE'S WRONG!!! I CHALLENGE YOU!!! OH, AND....GROW UP AND BEHAVE LIKE PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISTS!!!

Beck is wrong most fo the time. But, since you insist on examples, deal with this: Becks insistence that the "progressives" of today are the ideological offspring of the Nazis (because the NAZIs called their ideals "progressive") is intellectually dishonest and factually incorrect.

Don't you agree meganm?

Plenty of places to "Fact Check" Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, Malkin, Coulter, Savage, Levin, et al. Funny thing, most of their commentary has a caveat: "You know, this may be true...", "Is it possible that...?", "There is a strong suspicion....", "Just maybe this time...." When you continually cover your tracks due to a lack of any substantial evidence to back your claims, you can make millions. Just study P.T. Barnum.

a professional semanticist could have fun with this, let alone a ontologist: 'it looks like a coin, but it probably isn't'.
