Good Lord -- when you read the bold-faced criticism of Glen Beck that you posted, what does the rhetoric expresses beyond poorly penned intellectual masturbation? But on the good side, so far it stands as the dumbest tirade since Amidijad spoke to the UN yesterday.

Here's that post for the reader's review and evaluation: "Glenn Beck is the worst. But why? Not so much because of who he distrusts or why. From where I’m standing, Beck is so awful because he theatrically combines and conflates performances of ultimate sincerity with performances of ultimate sarcasm. I think this is a telltale sign of a soul disordered by a confusion of love, power, and resentment. It becomes impossible, in such a person, to tell quite where their selfless solidarity, their egotism, and their hatred borne of weakness begin or end. And the titillating quality of this unstable charisma is precisely what they latch onto and exploit to become less a famous person than a famous happening. Their individual being becomes incidental to the phenomenon they represent. They actually corrode or dissolve their own identity in order to experience some hugeness that seems impossible to experience as a normal, integral human being. Any actual pomocon looks on that kind of allure as troublesome and dangerous, and the kind of person in thrall to it as no pomocon."

Now wasn’t that an absolutely inane commentary?
