This will make you laugh. Then you will realize that there is nothing funny here. Nothing. Then you will cry. With Glenn Beck. Cry for Glenn. Cry for our nation. And if you think I'm joking that's just what they made you think.

I saw this yesterday. It is hilarious.
Glen Beck is just a cartoon character in reality.
No one could be that obtuse.

The Purity of Essence bit on the board was particularly funny too. At first it was a little uncomfortable to watch. You know, like watching someone make fun of a Downs Syndrome child because of how mentally handicapped they are. And since it's a Glenn Beck bit, I guess it's EXACTLY like that...

Sorry, can't cry right now. Ran out of Vapo-Rub.

Really? Is it really like that?
I can't watch Glenn Beck because I like to keep my brains in my head.

Kitty, this was not even slightly exaggerated in it's affect or tone. Or ill-logic. Or, really, in any other way.

yeah, I saw that yesterday too. It came right after the segment that basically summed up the republican criticism of the health bill to tl;dr

I saw Stewart on stage in Miami a few years ago (at the famed Jackie Gleason, no less). And you know what? The TV gig, great as it is, doesn't even begin to test his talent.
The sad day will come when he will want to move on (after he removes the leg-irons imagined by millions of fans wanting TDS to never end).
I can't wait to see what his next step is.
