Glenn Beck, in his own words: "close-to-painful murdering of the dark people."

Glenn Beck, in his own words:

Beck the oh-so-earnest-savior-of-the-Republic:

Beck's website (subscription required) also includes the following "comedy" segments, apparently broadcast on Beck's nationally syndicated radio program:
A mock radio jingle for the species of grouper formerly known as the "jewfish," containing the line: "Close your eyes and try to picture a great big friendly jewfish -- that is unless you're Jewish. Oh yeah, and that reminds us: Jewfish get real stinky if you leave them in the car."

Several short segments listing "rejected NCAA team names," including: "the Los Angeles Limp-Wrists," "the New Jersey Jumpin' Jews," and "the Atlanta Murdering Rampage of Savage Rapin' Injuns."

A satirical song about the reformed "New KKK": The song details the fictitious organization's practice of "close-to-painful murdering of the dark people."

A musical mock-tribute to illegal border crossers: The singer refers to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) as a "wasted" "leprechaun." An announcer says Mexico's "main contribution to American society is the deflowering of our teenage daughters on spring break."

A segment titled "Real Iranian A-holes": The narrator alleges that Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad "had relations with a goat."

Several segments featuring the misadventures of "Middle Eastern superheroes" named "Kandahar" and "Jalalabad": The two blow themselves up at the end of many episodes.
A mock preview of High Beams, a "five-minute movie" featuring "still pictures" of Jennifer Aniston's "jugs."

A song titled, "I Like Chinese": The singer brands the Chinese "small" and "cuddly," stating that "they only come up to your knees" and "they all have names like Wang and Chung and Sun-Ji."

1. what I find even more outrageous
is that Beck gets paid for this kind of talk. He gets paid lots. And people listen.

How low as a society can we go? When an obnoxious piece of crap is allowed to carry on his drivel and make millions off it, it appears we have pretty much hit rock bottom.

3. Somebody at CNN saw his website in '06 and said "let's hire this guy!"
then someone at FOX saw him and said "let's up the offer!"

2. Is that the Monty Python song?
Sounds like maybe somebody did a twisted take on it.

5. If Beck were to behave and speak like that in most work places he would
be fired.

And likely sued.
