How many of you listen to Glenn Beck?
Anyhow, apparently he has been going off about india. Why didn't anyone let me know? I mean jon stewart did, but i hear this happened in december?

C'mon people. as your token indian (no, starbucks anarchist, it's me, not you), i think you guys have an obligation to let me know such things.

end rant.

" I'm sure, no offense to India, I'm sure it's beautiful and everything. I've heard especially this time of year, especially by the - you know that one big river they have there that sounds like a disease? Come on, it does. I mean, if somebody said, 'I'm sorry, you have a really bad case of Ganges,' you'd want Cipro."

1. Nope, never listen to him.
I can't even stand to see his ugly face on TV.

9. Not white or Christian, therefore, it's crap.
Edited on Thu Jan-07-10 01:14 PM by Deep13
I think that was his meaning. We're big, strong Americans and we can laugh at the primitive customs of non-white people while pretending our own primitive customs--like eating Jesus' body and blood--somehow makes sense.

It's ethno-centric, racist, hypocritical, ugly American horseshit. Just what I might expect from the human maggot himself.

And no, I don't know the context. I would rather spend a morning at a mega-church than watch an hour of Clown Beck.

12. Hey Glenn, the World Chess Champion is Indian.
And obviously you and your viewers would hate that because chess requires a specialized mental skill called THINKING.

13. I listened to him enough when we was the morning show host on KC101 in Connecticut
:puke:

Vinnie Penn should have moved up in the radio world, not Beck.
