Glenn Beck announced his impending departure from Fox News in April, and tonight the clown prince of illogical fear-mongering will air his final show. To mark the occasion, Media Matters made this epic video of Beck “highlights,” if you can call them that.
After about a minute and twenty seconds of watching this, my eye started to twitch, but I decided to stick it out because I owe it to you, the reader, to give a fair account of the news and clips I share. But then, 1:49 into the video — this really happened — my computer froze. I couldn’t even ctrl + alt + delete out of Chrome — I had to hold the power button down and restart my laptop. Clearly, my computer’s failure is part of a conspiracy by pretentious technocratic progressives who want to stifle Beck’s egalitarian message of freedom for the common man. And I couldn’t be happier about it.

Maybe he can join Olbermann over at Current TV making sure nobody ever watches him again.
you mean we won’t get more insightful quotes like:
“When I see a 9/11 victim family on television, or whatever, I’m just like, ‘Oh shut up’ I’m so sick of them because they’re always complaining.”
–”The Glenn Beck Program,” Sept. 9, 2005
I’m amazed that it took this long for him to get shit canned.
How can somebody be so shitty, spew so much bullshit, and still be ok with themselves? Oh that’s right money.
Honestly, I’m surprised this dipshit hasn’t already swallowed his own tongue.
I watched him during the lead up to the last presidential election and for a few months afterward. His crazy level escalated so high and his conspiracy theories were so thin I had to stop watching. Also, what is with his lips?
I listen to Beck and FOX News radio on occasion and cannot understand how anyone takes this man seriously. His show is so incoherent that it’s really hard to follow any kind of point Beck tries to make. In his final days on radio, he claimed that if FOX fails, America fails and that if Israel is destroyed, so too will be the world. Putting such weight on his ideas is both incredibly narcissistic and evil.
People who listen to this man religiously are retarded, perhaps Tracy Morgan can have sex with some of them?
Was it was the fact that Fox studios’ vending machines did not accept gold currency that finally drove him over the edge?
I think the question on all our minds is – will he return to Y95 “No Gimmicks” with Hattrick and Zippy the Chimp? Drive time has never been more hilarious!
So Olbermann’s almost toast, Glenn Beck is gone, can we get Jersey Shore off the air as well?
Sssh, ssssssh, Glenn. No more tears, little camper. No more tears.
I finally had a chance to watch the full clip. Bravo, Media Matters. Bra-vo.
I don’t want to PoFlaWa the thread, but as much as Olbermann is undeniably a smug douche with an incredible stick up his ass, he is nowhere remotely close to the giant bag of pants-pissing, mouth-breathing, poo-flinging batshit crazy that is Glenn Beck. If you need a counterpart for him, Olbermann is (was?) more the left’s version of Bill O’Reilly.
There are people on the left who are as crazy as Glenn Beck, of course. They’re just not on TV. They’re all homeless guys who are too busy throwing their poo at the fascists from the parks department and ranting about how Halliburton is trying to steal their livers to make millions like Beck does.
But if Beck’s off the air, who’s going to frighten the elderly for us now?!
Beck was great. Sorry to see him go. You pussy liberals that hate all that is conservative are reacting exactly the way I would expect you to. Beck is great and will continue to be great. I think what really pisses you libtards the most is that he is a multi millionaire many times over while you moroons still live in your parents basement.
^*Morons.
Amazing fail is amazing.
