Glenn Beck wants people to stop calling him a conspiracy theorist



Perhaps the reason that everyone considers Beck to be conspiracy theorist is because he spends hours every day spreading conspiracy theories.

And if he wants people to stop calling him a conspiracy theorist, it would probably help if be wasn't blaming the entire thing on some sort of conspiratorial effort supposedly originated by Cass Sunstein.

of the guy at the airport counter who, upon hearing news that he didn't like, said "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!?!?!?

The counter attendant then got on the microphone and announced to the entire airport "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a man here who doesn't know who he is. Does anyone recognize this gentleman?"
