    They are actually just making fun of guys like Glen Beck. As far as I'm concerned, that's a good thing.

        A proper douche in my opinion, as batty as they can get.

          Well, I am using Jon's Stewart's definition of extremist here (in reverse). After all, a few weeks ago I accidentally caught the beginning of his show and got to hear that, according to Jon Stewart, a Conservative Extremist is one that burns the Qur'an while a Muslim extremist hijacks a plane and crashes it into a building.

          I bet it was funny when he said it. It's all in the delivery.


          He said, "Boy I'm just old and lonely, But thank you for your concern, Here's wishing you a Happy New Year." I wished him one back in return.

            Oh I doubt he's batty. Quite brilliant in fact. He plays to an audience that pays the bills. He found a niche in need and provides succor to suckers.

                Ennis - this is a losing cause. Cut your losses.

                  I would worry a lot more about those who would attend their rallies than about Jon Or Steven.

                  I'm an extremist. So there. ;P As soon as you use a "vote" to take my money, it's wrong.

                    You appear to have misplaced a couple of '*'. The man's a huckster, and a good one, as are all talking heads (although in his case he also makes great use of gesticulation, emotion and props - the guy's a pro and that wasn't sarcasm). It's what pays the bills. That's not to say he doesn't believe most of what he preaches. It is however impossible to tell where he ends and the act begins, because at the end of the day he has to attract the demographic that the advertisers desire, and he's found a profitable niche. Call me a pinko-liberal-commie-socialist bastard if you must, but I take no one at their word who aggrandizes themselves. Motivation is key to understanding anyone, I ask it of everyone and while genuity may make friends it seldom makes money.

                      You "pinko-liberal-commie-socialist bastard " :) feel better? :laugh: I agree Mr. Beck is an entertainer. And I appreciate you nailing all of the talking heads. But, I lean that way rather than the nonsense the established but dying media portray. btw, what the heck is a midwest limey? A drink?
