As a Dog Returns to his Vomit

So a fool returns to his folly.

 -- Proverbs 26:11

You might remember way back five minutes ago when your Liberal TeeVee was suddenly filled with the light of glorious Bipartisan Angels.

Their Both Siderism shone with terrible brightness and the people were filled with great fear, but Squint and the Meat Puppet told the masses, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Glenn Beck has decided to stop being a bomb-throwing asshole!  In fact, he's kinda sorry about the whole 'ripping the country apart for money thing.'"

"Great!  Is he keeping the money?" asked one disreputable, foul-mouthed wag, but his question was drowned out by the righteous exhortations of Wise Men praising Glenn Beck and cursing those Wicked Extremists (On Both Sides!) whose refused to acknowledge Glenn Beck's repentance as a sign from God that that the Kingdom of Centrism was at hand!

Yeah, well, it turns out --

 -- that was all kinda bullshit.

He's Back! Glenn Beck Says Obama Will Throw Opponents in Internment Camps

Two weeks after apologizing for tearing the nation apart, Glenn Beck is calling Obama a dictator and claiming abortion opponents will be sent to internment camps...

Beck’s internment camp caution was not his first infraction against his own promise to be less divisive in the last two weeks. In fact, he’s pretty much carried on with fear mongering as usual since that apparently insignificant interview with Megyn Kelly. At a Texas GOP event earlier this week, Beck chided the Republican party for not taking harsher action and appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the Benghazi scandal, the IRS, and just President Obama himself because “he looked at the American people and lied,” about Obamacare. In the same speech, Beck compared Washington, D.C. to Chernobyl—because our political system is “toxic,” get it?—and suggested Congress solve its problems the same way the Ukraine handled the catastrophic nuclear disaster back in 1986. “You, you go in. You open the door. Then you get out...You make sure the document is still there. Then you get out,” he said. “That’s what it should be. We are dealing with Chernobyl. It’s a meltdown of our system.”

The week prior (also the week after his apology) was a busy one for Beck. First, he defended venture capitalist Tom Perkins against criticism for his argument, published in a Wall Street Journal letter to the editor, that the “progressive war on the American one percent” is the modern-day equivalent of the Nazis’ condemnation of Jews during the Holocaust. Beck argued that Perkins’ subsequent apology in the face of major scrutiny was proof that “We are Germany 1930. You can deny it all you want,” he said. “But the socialist revolution is here.”

I await Squint's invitation to appear on his show to explain to him in Very Small Words how to stop shitting himself in public.
