• Jon Stewart Makes It Onto Glenn Beck's Book Jacket

[QUOTE=The Huffington Post]Unless you've never seen an episode of "The Daily Show" in your life, you probably know that Jon Stewart has a love/hate relationship with Glenn Beck, and by love/hate we mean that he loves to hate him. That's why we were really surprised to see who was quoted on the cover of the paperback version of Glenn Beck's "Arguing With Idiots." There it is: one of Stewart's better slams against Beck, with a terrible review by Time to boot. Does Beck not understand sarcasm? Or is this HIS idea of a joke? While we try to figure that out, go ahead and laugh at the fact that someone at Beck's publishing company might be getting canned.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/16/glenn-beck-book-stewart-time_n_720159.html[/url] [IMG]http://i.huffpost.com/gen/201730/GLENN-BECK-BOOK-STEWART-QUOTE.jpg[/IMG] Someone's getting fired. Or like the article said, is this some kind of sick joke?
Has Jon mentioned it on his show?
glenn beck is just a troll look at ANY of his books, then look at the quotes on the back
Beck probably did it to be ironic.
[QUOTE=alienmartian23;24870567]glenn beck is just a troll look at ANY of his books, then look at the quotes on the back[/QUOTE] What's his message then? I don't get it. [editline]08:18PM[/editline] [QUOTE=ZekeTwo;24870586]Beck probably did it to be ironic.[/QUOTE] That would make sense, but still a little weird I guess.
I think the quote above those two is implying something like "Everyone thinks he's an idiot, so he must hold hidden wisdom". edit: Actually, no, I'm wrong. This is the quote above it: [Quote] Idiots can't be identified through voting records, they can be found only by looking for people who hide behind stereotypes, embrace partisanship, and believe that bumper sticker slogans are a substitute for common sense. If you know someone who fits the bill, then Arguing with Idiots will help you silence them once and for all with the ultimate weapon: the truth.[/Quote] There's a certain irony about that whole paragraph. It's like they read my mind, because that's how I feel about teabaggers and the like. I think Beck's audience knows that they're viewed as idiots & will kind of embrace the hate. The book is called "Arguing with Idiots", so it helps to understand that this is the theme behind a lot of the material on the cover.
basically glen beck just proved jon stewart's point
Judging by the quote from Time this seems inentional.
glenn beck can fuck a can opener
"liberal media hates what you love, which is me"
How the fuck is this real? The left quote says "leading the lunatic fringe."
I wonder if Glen knows they don't like him... [editline]05:57PM[/editline] Or maybe secretly he's tired of this persona and is slowly trying to kill it. God knows if I had to act like that I'd want to die after a while, I bet he's feeling tired of the charade. [editline]05:57PM[/editline] Yes, Glen Beck just acts that crazy, he's really a fairly reasonable individual from what it showed years ago before he joined Fox.
this could qualify a so bad its good if glenn beck is letting us know he knows how awful his stuff is
[QUOTE=OrionChronicles;24871500]this could qualify a so bad its good if glenn beck is letting us know he knows how awful his stuff is[/QUOTE] Hes a self confessed supertroll, he makes millions off pandering to idiots who believe whatever he tells them, hes a genius.

It's like he made the decision to be a irl troll when he switched over to fox.
[QUOTE=OvB;24871979]I don't even remember Glenn's show on CNN because he wasn't so loopy.

He's been doing this for a while. It's pretty funny.

Hah! :v:
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;24871310] Yes, Glen Beck just acts that crazy, he's really a fairly reasonable individual from what it showed years ago before he joined Fox.[/QUOTE] Like when he said he was starting to hate 9/11 victims because they were "whiny"?
[QUOTE=Andokool12;24872781]Like when he said he was starting to hate 9/11 victims because they were "whiny"?[/QUOTE] I'd say that if they were paying me for it.
This is awesome
[QUOTE=Andokool12;24872781]Like when he said he was starting to hate 9/11 victims because they were "whiny"?[/QUOTE] pay someone enough money and he'll do just about anything. Saying insane things on TV is easy, i'd do it for less than he does.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;24874958]I'll do it for a million.[/QUOTE] Give me 5 bucks and I'll do it.
[QUOTE=Habsburg;24874968]Abyss I would like to give you a check for a million dollars.[/QUOTE] Sweet, thank you, now it's time for the Glen Abyss Beck show, upcoming today, the world is ending because the satanchrist Obama fucked his wife, a black woman, and as we all know, the blacks are not to have intercourse or it will be the end of the glorious white civilization. More at 7. I'm supposed to be mormon now right? That includes being racist as fuck I'm sure.
