3. His magic panties tickled him?
He has discovered that he is, in fact, a douche-bag?

4. I'd guess it's one of two things
Either he fell off the wagon due to the stress of being in the public eye and constantly hounded, or it's some lame anti-climactic bullshit.

26. I thought it meant "God is a Louse"
I admit, my Latin skills are a little rusty.

Can you imagine his horror if he came to his senses?

Could he be going through this again?

11. I bet he's just going to slack off for a few days. Telling lie after lie could be very stressful.






or maybe he's going to visit his family...

12. I am guessing it has to do with his eyes
I remember hearing how earlier this year he supposedly was diagnosed with some eye disorder, maybe this has something to with that.

44. El Porko's problem was with his ears.
He now has a cochlear implant (you can see part of it if you look just behind his left ear).

Sudden hearing loss is not listed as one of the side effects of Oxycontin. But constipation is.

Which, I think, explains a lot.

41. If it's his eyes, it must be a Vicks Vap-O-Rub OD.
That stuff's not intended to be used to induce tears. He could've smeared it on his upper lip, but having your nose run on camera doesn't quite have the same effect...

19. Praise be to God.
is he trying to impress me with his Latin?

And what could have happened? Will see... Glenny can be a drama queen, but in true Christian spirit (From a Jew) I hope nothing really bad happened... that thing about forgiving and all that... and turning the other cheek.

30. Cross posted from Political videos
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x512787

"Don't know whether to expect winter ... or spring"? "Watch the leaves changing"? Ooooo-kayyyy apart from the fact that this is a guy who knows Sweet Fanny Adams about seasonal changes could it be he is expecting a Republican disaster in the midterms? Now add in his "Laus Deo" = Praise (be to) God! twitter which references either the old Latin mass or to the Whittier poem on the passage of the 13th Amendment or the fact it is a Fundie favourite because it's on top of the Washington Monument. Sudden conversion from Mormonism to Baptist or Pentecostalist Christianity so he's electable?

Well, if Ben Gleck chose a craftier name they might never have figured it out.

34. What a clown. When he was on CNN his ratings were so low
that even the tools on that network, desperate as they were to appease the far right, had to finally get rid of him.

Shows what money can do. He's like an experiment in 'how you can turn a complete jackass into a celebrity if you have enough money and enough fools who are easily parted from their money'.

I think there are people around with money to spend who take a fool like Beck and promote him just to see how many people can be fooled out of their hard-earned money. I bet even they are surprised at just how many other idiots there are in this country.

35. Faux Nuze told him to tone it down - or he was fired
The nonstop TeaBagger rant was scaring away the paying advertisers and hurting the bottom line.

40. Beck can't survive a whole week without a nervous breakdown.
Just put him in the straitjacket already with a heavy dose of meds. It would be in the service of this country.

After all, he used the revered reverend's name in vain with that so-called rally. :(
