Beck’s No Limbaugh
It pains us to say this, but the bell may be tolling for Glenn Beck.
The signs were there after the Gazillion Teabagger March last month, what with Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin grumbling about his popularity. At the time, we dismissed it as professional jealousy, but Lindsey Graham has put our hypothesis to the test the past few days, and the prognosis is dim:
- Graham, Thursday: “Only in America can you make that much money crying.”
- Beck, Friday: “Lindsey Graham hating my guts is probably the highest honor I’ve ever received.”
- Graham, Sunday: “You can listen to him if you like. I choose not to.”
See what Lindsey did there? He pushed back. And on Fox News Sunday, no less. Without consequence. If you can’t even get South Carolina’s fourth-ranked douchebag to toss your salad, you can kiss your crying game goodbye.
Graham: Beck is not the voice of conservatism [Think Progress]
The GOP has a far bigger problem than douchebags like Beck and Limbaugh, namely: a base that worships douchebags like Beck and Limbaugh.
@Serolf Divad:
with help from them we may finally get a viable third party in this country.
I liked Lindsey Grahm better on Will and Grace
@Capt Howdy: Right, the neonazis, militiamen, jesufascists and meth heads aren’t going to want to play with spineless sell-outs like Graham.
TJ: This article, from 1995, made me LOL.
Best quote – guess who said it?
You cannot deliberately plan a demagogic campaign of deliberately misinforming senior citizens and deliberately scaring people and then walk off and not have some sense of responsibility…
Nope, not Black Eagle – this was good ol’ 1995-Newt. Here’s the complete quote:
You cannot deliberately plan a demagogic campaign of deliberately misinforming senior citizens and deliberately scaring people and then walk off and not have some sense of responsibility if you’re the President of the United States.(emphasis added)
If the sitting Democrats had anything resembling a spine, they’d be playing this on TV 24/7.
@FlyingChainSaw:
hey
lay off the meth heads
;-(
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches:

Huckelberry Graham may end up being the last honest Republican.
Mr. ‘Catt has been at Feature for 15 years…what division were you in?
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches:
I was at feature from 1995 to 2002 or so.

Hm. John? Built little fillipino guy?
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches:
hmmm
thinkin. definitely sounds like someone I would have noticed. did he work on Dinosaur (released 2000)?
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches: hey darling, when you get a chance swing by the sandbox.
@Capt Howdy:
ah hell

that is a super total junk email address so I dont care to publish it.
hopefully not agin any rules.
@<@SanFranLefty:
Uh, okay.
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches:
hey
I replied to you from another address. you don wanna use that one.
Wait, the one I replied to from my Disney e-mail? Use that one?
(bear with us, Stinquers)
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches:
you do not want to use the hotmail address. nothing bad will happen except you will probably get a fake vacation reply. I replied to your disney address from a gmail address. hopefully it did not get sent to junk.
and yeah. sorry about this folks.
