Glenn Beck will pitch any idea to an audience for a buck. You want sincerity? That costs extra!

So it's not surprising the man who wears his 9 principles on his sleeve including honesty (#3) would change his views on government bailouts based upon his audience. Put him on right-wing Fox News and he consistently rants against them regardless of the consequences. The banks will fail? Who cares? Damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead off the cliff! Put him on moderate CNN and he's for the bitter pill of the bailouts even as he expects the final cost to be at least $2 trillion.

Did I mention Glenn's the sincere shill with tears welled up in his eyes letting us know he's not into this Republican or Democratic politics thing? Oh no, it's all about the principles once against, not party loyalty. Did I mention when he was for the bailouts Bush was still in office and he changed his tune once Obama assumed power?

I guess Fox News isn't paying Glenn enough to be sincere. Memo to Roger Ailes: up Glenn's salary now!

Granted, the Penguin was a Super Villian, but to compare him to Glenn Beck is uncalled for. :)

3. Great to put these together so clearly. Intelligent work.
We should have a file of a number of these.

Another, clearly demonstrating how intentional Beck's hypocrisy was put together a few weeks ago and posted to DU (same poster?) concerning his radio broadcast attacking Shirley Sherrod on a Monday and claiming (on O'Reilly) that he didn't touch the story on a Tues. or Wed.

I was in a friendly argument with someone who claimed he was simply stupid and didn't lie like Rush and O'Reilly et al.

A place we had links to a number of such pieces of evidence would dispell the belief he is simply a clown who doesn't deliberately lie.

Somehow there will be justice. Life does not love such foul arrogance.

11. I'm sure the upcoming goldline scandal will be the end of that slimeball.
He'll be whimpering like Jim Baker when he heads to prison.
