I guess a guy fainted on his show the other day and the dude is actually advocating secession, but whatever, I don’t care about any of that, I’m just interested in Glenn Beck-as-brilliant-performance-artist. The clip that made me think of the Glick connection was this one from Gawker (which they won’t let you embed, dang it) showing the certifiably insane Fox host adopting a dainty lisp for some reason I have yet to determine. Watching this, it suddenly hit me where I’d seen his brand of nonsensical, pudgy-faced bloviating before. So either go watch the Gawker clip and come back, or just compare some generic Beck blabber with vintage Glick below, and then tell me if you’ve ever seen them in the same room together.
