Is Glenn Beck's 15 minutes of fame just about up? Has he flamed out?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

No doubt he's made enough money for a lifetime this past year, and douches like this will always have their drooling followers who he can make a living off of, but it just feels like he's gone to the crazy well too often and the fad is ending.

[FBaggins]

1. Other.

No... but I wish it were yes?

[Ozymanithrax]

2. He is a Saint of the Conservative Movement...

His further existance is assured.

[metapunditedgy]

3. Fame? Big deal; there's lots of ways to be widely-known, most of them bad. n/t

[classysassy]

4. Evil

men will always be among us,

[mzteris]

5. who?

:rofl:

He's like a bad penny - he'll keep turning up for a while . . .

[obliviously]

6. He will have an audience until jobs come back.

[agent46]

7. Beck is more dangerous than Limbaugh

He's the propaganda voice that rallies know-nothings (eventually) to violence in the name of liberty. I think it's a mistake to underestimate his role in the ascendancy of fascism in this country. Can we learn from history? There's nothing like a simplistic belief system to make you feel like a genius.

8. I expect Beck to have a total emotional collapse any day now.

He gets more irrational with each passing day.

[The Midway Rebel]

9. Didn't Beck come out against Brown...

when The Tea Bag Party starting eyeing Brown for their Presidential candidate? I would not be surprised if the PTB found a way to push Beck off the stage.

[Skittles]

10. whenever I see him I'm in a state of disbelief that anyone could take him seriously

I mean, come on, he is a fucking clown

[IndyJones]

11. I don't know about being a clown, but he does have some pretty far out

there ideas. The last time I listened to his show, he was talking about people melting down money, women selling themselves, etc. It was like some sort of end of world type scenario like the US was going to become a third world country. Who believes that garbage?

[Electric]

12. He will never go away.

He is a chameleon. Intellectually dishonest, he will change his opinions to try to appeal to the "masses."

[suede1]

13. Not yet, but he will push it too far like McCarthy did. He's crazy, it's inevitable.

[Jack Rabbit]

14. No

But gee, I hope I'm wrong.

[Zoeisright]

15. I wish.

I wish he'd finally explode and be nothing but a large grease stain on the floor.

[LTR]

16. Give him enough rope to hang himself

Beck will be his own undoing.

Let's face it, the guy obviously pulls the material straight out of his ass. He doesn't know shit about anything. His experience was hosting the Morning Zoo. He's a carnival geek. Eventually, people are going to tire of this nonsense and he'll be as relevant as Milli Vanilli.
