In case you’re wondering why so many people watch Glenn Beck watch this. This is Beck at his most…entertaining. Beck opened tonight’s show with what can only be described as a tour-de-force excoriation of yesterday’s Joe Klein article accusing Americans of being dumb. Fifteen minutes worth. It was, to put it plainly, brilliant theater. A cast of thousands with Beck playing all the parts.

Beck takes apart lib elitist Klein.

i wish it was required viewing!

I don’t watch much of Beck, but did see this. Hilarious destruction of Times piece.

It was hilarious and right on the mark. Beck, Pat and Stu are geniuses on the radio too. Can't wait for tomorrow's show!

It was very good, thanks for posting so I can watch it again.

...another year and it will be...*smiles*, if they thought last years DC “get together” was big, this summer is going to be HUGH (huge)..*grins*

Beck must really be wearing out his welcome in the Mormon church...After all the Church leadership chose Harry Ried as “Mormon of the year”.

...what Harry Reid told BYU students Oct. 9, 2007: “I am a Democrat because I am a Mormon, not in spite of it,” he said. Reid made that remark to over 4,000 such BYU students, faculty & administrators, who warmly welcomed Harry Reid to their campus in October, 2007: At the end of his speech, Reid earned a standing ovation from a small percentage of the crowd and applause from the rest. (Deseret News, Oct. 10, 2007)

The BYU-sanctioned event provided Mormon political & religious leaders a common platform to attack Evangelicals: Reid also told reporters the Republican Party has been driven by evangelical Christians for 20 years. “They are the most anti-Christian people I can imagine, the people from the Christian far right.” (Deseret News, Oct. 10, 2007)

Keep watching! Nobody knows just when we will witness,live, his Howard Beale moment. Will it be his most spectacular? Stay tuned in, folks!

I may be alone here but even though the message was right on, his mannerism made me feel uncomfortable as hell. I picture the left taking this to show how stupid and idiotic people are to watch this clown. I love Glenn but not always sure the way he does things is the right way. Can't argue about his content though. Today was like me sitting in a High School class and the teacher teaching the things they should be teaching.

Beck takes apart lib elitist Klein.

It was delish...4 Million viewers on a good day, never in Klein's wildest dreams would he have that many readers...

Maybe Joe should go on Glenn's show and debate him. Na, he'd have to retrieve his manhood from Hillary's lock-box in order to do it...

[Signalman]

I agree that Beck does get somewhat theatrical but, when you get to the substance of what he is saying, it’s right on the money.

[Owl558]

I don’t enjoy Beck as much as I should, but that was pure GOLD!

My favorite line, “Thanks for talking down to us, Joe”

[sodpoodle]

Glenn Beck is everyman. A human with flaws, humor, honesty fear.....and the courage to face his and our demons.

He is a patriot - putting his soul on view in order to rescue our Constitution from those who would steal it in the dark of night.

Thank God he has found his calling.

[TruthHound]

Effin’ BRILLIANT! What a gauche little man Joe is.

[Las Vegas Ron]

GB certainly has a unique, sometimes absurd style....but he always brings it full circle and knocks his point out of the park!

[who knows what evil?]

Those of us who have attended wine tastings at New England art galleries can really appreciate how Beck mocked the elite...it was spot on, and funny as hell!

[Travis McGee]

Oh MAN! I can’t WAIT to read Klein’s ripping response in next week’s magazine!

(That’s a dinosaur media death-watch joke.)

I saw the show tonight and it was terrific.
His latest "Compare and Contrast" episode of Hugo Chavez and 0bama was priceless. Two peas in a pod.
Too bad they can't pipe this stuff into our schools.
