We have arrived at the sweet spot of pining for bygone days. Beck has told us this. Sure he said don't be fourth graders, when we point out that is smack dab in slavery era. We need to revert to this time period, to recapture our American Exceptionalism. Never mind that our strength was derived from waiting far too long to deal with Nazis. Then rebuilding all of Europe.

This date seems to be chosen to predate Marx pointing out capitalisms shortcomings. Never mind that Americans had to toe theocratic lines or be placed in stocks in the public square. Never mind that the big man would trample your rights, and burn you out if you complained. Never mind that most families were one bad harvest away from starving to death. Never mind that there was no infrastructure, and building a personal empire of any type was unrealistic.

But there weren't all these illegal aliens messing up our country like now, he says. And there wasn't all this eminent domain and heavy handed government intrusion. Unless you were an Indian being invaded.

Never mind that ALL of the fools in his audience would be snug in their graves by now. Never mind that women didn't have any say. And any woman that didn't find a man, or had theirs die, would not fare well if at all.

And finally, any pansy assed turd with the gestures and mamma's boy routine of Beck, would be calling for government protection every day of his life, as there would be a line out the wazoo to kick his pasty ass.

Folks, Beck is the moral equivalent of Neitzsche, who realizing his relative small frame, and weak spirit, envisioned himself some Walter Mitty superman as compensation.

Finally, the way Beck sucks up to Roger Ailes, and Rupert Murdoch, shows that Beck would not have removed his lips from the kings ass and more likely would have been a court jester instead of a rodeo clown.

3. Beck isn't stupid he knows he is in the entertainment business
The rest of us who think it's authentic editorial commentary are the ones who need a lot less Miller time.

5. "...and more likely would have been a court jester instead of a rodeo clown."
As much as I liked the OP, they jury is still out on this your last sentence.

Do either a court jester or rodeo clown occupy a higher station than a poop flinging monkey? Why was the poop flinging monkey not even mentioned? Do you hate monkeys? Are you prejudiced against poop? Is it your stance on animal rights that prevents you from denigrating them with any comparison to Glenn Beck?

While I will give your post both a kick and recommend, I do so with reservation.

7. "Monkey" not "Ape"
Your friends would (will) be insulted.

You are so screwn and should expect to be smeared with ape poop in retaliation for your racist remarks.

Let me know where and when... I wanna take pics and video.
