It’s a fair guess, really. When a certain level of crazy is reached–and then surpassed!–you have to wonder if it has become like performance art. I’ve often wondered the same about Ann Coulter (And Her Terrifying Man-Hands); is it at least partly a put-on? Is there a knowing smirk behind the crazy-face mask?

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.

…sounds like an apt description of Glenn Beck, no? Is he really suggesting that embracing partisanship and bumper sticker slogans makes you an idiot? Or perhaps some snarky, left-leaning copy editor wrote that, and no one’s noticed the irony yet.

I think I’m beginning to lean towards the theory that Beck is running a huge practical joke on all of us. Like Andy Kaufman, but on a much larger scale.

Just like the Senate Finance Committee!

Thank you for another big bag of awesome, MGK.

Has anyone noticed the fringies tossing around the phrase “Radical Marxist” a lot lately? That seems to be Glenn Beck’s new favorite epithet. I guess “socialist” wasn’t getting enough traction.

What the hell is a “radical Marxist”, anyway? Is it like a BMX stunt, only done while wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt?
