This [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-november-5-2009/the-11-3-project] clip I saw on the Daily Show a few nights ago sums up the craziness that is Glenn Beck pretty nicely. I say Jon's impression of Beck is pretty damn spot on. He even gets the guys crazy hand gestures down pact.

Ah, Beck. The only good thing to come of him was this [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-november-5-2009/the-11-3-project]. For those of you who don't know who Beck is, this is John Stewart (I hope you know who he is) doing an Eight and a Half minute long impersonation of him.

EDIT: Ninja'd!

I love his song "Devil's Haircut", actually the whole album Odelay was pretty fantastic. All of Guero makes excellent background noise for a party also

I really really really hope that was a joke
Yes, yes it was. I was thinking of replying "Of course it isn't" in a sarcastic manner, but the internet being so lacking in tone, I won't.

It's not on Youtube because of damn Viacom. Try this one from Zimbio.com. If that fails the segment is called the 11/3 project so you can google "The Daily Show 11/3" and probably find it somewhere. http://www.zimbio.com/watch/4XV9YBbG63G/The+11+3+Project/The+Daily+Show+with+Jon+Stewart

I first heard of him when I was watching the truthiness goodness that is The Colbert Report. I thought the man was a complete imbecile with no self control. (Especially with the "I love America *sniffle* but sometimes I fear for her" stuff.)

Is Glenn Beck well-known outside the U.S or is he pretty much a national fox-news thing? If so what do you guys 'outside' the U.S think of him?

(I personally wish for his imminent and painful death but that's just me)
He's known to a few people through the internet. I find the man hilarious as his logic breaks down as soon as he begins talking about anything.

He's referenced on a few minor shows, mostly to show how crazy he appears and how creepy he is when he begins crying about the current state of the US.

An interesting point, on Fox News they interviewed a Republican Congressman (I think that was it) and the reporter asked him if the health bill was the first time US citizens were forced to buy a product and he agreed saying it was unconstitutional.

This is odd for a number of reasons, firstly, it's just tax paying for a new government programme this has happened many times though it is National in scope. It's not the 'first time' I think you'll all remember that you were forced to buy parts of Bank of America. It's just a tax, you could argue the same about policing or the military, that you are required to pay for them.

I know who he is. He's the guy that say tha being "Godless" is what's wrong with america. He also hates it when people make Mao jokes only to later stage a sketch using Mao.

Great dude, I'm sure the Soilent processing fatories would love to have him.

Aw sorry man...dumb regional restrictions. Well they do air the Daily Show overseas right? So your bound to eventually see it if you watch reruns.

I do not know who this man(?) and thus have no opinion of him/her. Since you mentiond fox I assume he/she is associated with the news network, if this is the case then I am glad that I have no idea who he/she is.

My first reaction to him was "I'm sorry, who?". That pretty much says everything.

Though I've heard of him, I think I'm the exception - most people in the UK that I know have never heard of him.

Glenn Beck is, plain and simple, a fucking douchebag.

Although, I must agree, kids singing songs about Obama is a bit weird but I will bet you anything, absolutely anything, if you were allowed to have Christian prayers in school, but not Muslim or Jewish prayers, he wouldnt care.

Hes not a reporter, hes a fucking preacher.
