This Send Up of Glenn Beck Is At Least Funny

I actually enjoy watching Glenn Beck when I happen to catch his show. Most of the time he's just asking questions and speculating, which seems to me to be fair enough. He does tend to push the conspiracy side of the envelop but that seems reasonable enough given the crazy politics we're seen in Washington since Obama ushered in the act of "printing money solves all problems." The antics in Washington have gone well beyond bizarre, so when you see really bizarre stuff going on it's quite natural to trot out conspiracy theories. Are they correct? Generally not exactly. If it were that easy we'd likely be able to fix things. The scary thing is that the alternative is that these nutjobs believe all this stuff they are doing is for the good of everyone. The lunatics are running the asylum and you have to say that that's because we elected them and are too lazy to actually find sensible people to send to Washington.

Instead we have congressmen that think that Guam will sink if we put too many people on one side of the island. No joke. It doesn't get too much crazier than that.
