Teevee Crackpot Calls For Joining Him


to "end this destructive conflict"



and "bring order to the Galaxy".

(h/t ShitMyDarthSays)

A random sampling of my tweets from today's Mormonburg Rally, with some after-market improvements added to better serve You The Customer:

  • Glenn Beck: The Pod Piper.
  • Beck now going for the Castro Record for godawful, incoherent, rambling crap punctuated with random quotes.
  • What does America do with its mistakes? It gives them jobs on Fox teevee.
  • Glenn Beck wants to put giants into your children?
  • Thinking about using my last $$ enroll in Grifter School. The money is great and you literally don't need to know shit.
  • Glenn Beck filibusters so you don't have to.
  • Sacrifice! Sacrifice! Ba'al demands a sacrifice!
  • Glenn Beck: Not a fearmonger. He's an icemonger. Just like Jesus!
  • Glenn Beck says God caused 9/11. No, seriously. That's what he just said.
  • I think Beck just urged his Beckolytes to turn off Fox News.
  • Quit looking to other people to get you to the moon! Pick up your stick!
  • Today we celebrate the day when Giant Pilgrims...landed on the moon?
  • And God said "I shall send you a man with a schtick".
  • This is rivaling Nixon's resignation speech for random, rambly incoherence. My dad was a lemon farmer who picked up his stick and went to Mars, bitches!
  • This is like watching HAL getting its memory cards pulled. Puking out random syllables. Daisy...Jesus..Give me your ans..er...doooo.
  • Vietnam...trees...freedom...giants...why?...dirty water...for us to reflect...and a bunch of guys.
  • Glenn Beck: When I was 18 yo, I used to buy weed on this very spot!
  • So the Washington Monument is made of...mood ring stuff? Look at it! Look! It is angry!
  • Shorter Beck: Quit reading history, kids. It'll only make you mad.
  • "In a world..." (Video) Glad to see Miguel Ferrer is still getting Voice Over work.
  • (After camera finds lone black man in crowd) CSPAN finally tracks Juan Williams down.
  • We lost our manufacturing base because...we were sinful? Want those Maytag jobs back? Pray harder!
  • Next up, Pussy Galore and her team are supposed to gas the crowd, after which Beck will steal all their gold.
  • "We're all born knowing the truth"? So all you need to know is how to shit yourself and cry? Teabagging finally explained!
  • "...which is why Mr. Hunstman unstintingly supports stem cell research."? Say it! Say it!
  • "Hello Sodom! City by the bay!"
  • "Glenn Beck is one of the Confederacy's most trusted and honored citizens."
  • "Winners Never Cheat", now with forward by George W. Bush.
  • Shorter Whitestock: Random verb+random verb+random adjective +Jesus! Rinse and repeat.
  • This reads like Glenn Beck's copy-and-paste book report on a whole lotta shit he never read. Goodness is...Good!
  • So Far, GoldLine "medals" for Baseball, Jesus and War. Next up, the GoldLine "medal" for Excellence in Apple Pieing.
  • Tony (LaRussa) didn't know about this fine organization until he read the check.
  • Where have all the truthies gone? Long time passing. Where have all the truthies gone? Gone to buy some gold...
  • Three women stood out in the ministry, just like the Women of Glenn Beck. Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos?
  • ...And I'd like to thank GoldLine for the "medals".
  • What the fucking is a "Navy Sill"?
  • It terribly sad that GWB's lies screwed up that nice lady's family.
  • Shorter Whitestock: First, everybody came to America and got along great. Then, the 16th Cent happened. Then Jesus wrote the Constitution.
  • Thus ends the today's national gathering of the Stick Picker Uppers.
  • Onward Xian Stick Picker Uppers...Marching as to where?
  • Shorter Whitestock :"Oh, well, of course, everything looks bad if you remember it." Homer J. Simpson
  • I feel like I've eaten three pounds of Silly Putty.
  • Kept waiting for Trashcan Man to show up dragging a nuke.

"Thus ends the today's national gathering of the Stick Picker Uppers"

But did they pick up their trash?

I noticed people playing (or peeing?) in the reflecting pool.

Drifty, how many people would you say attended? Wingers sites are claiming at least half-a-million.

KWillow,
No idea how many people went. Also don't care :-) 100K? 300K? 500K? The Right has a long history of lying about the size of their mobs. All I know for sure is, they got chumped, traveling from far and wide to participate in one of the greatest rambling flops of the modern age.

A million went to Obama's Inauguration and the city was effectively shut down for hours.

So, doubtful it was half a million.

In the early 90s, I went to the March for Women's Lives, and there were more people there than it looked like there were for Beckapalooza. A lot more. IIRC, it was pretty well jammed from the Lincoln to the Washington, and the WWII memorial hadn't been built yet.

CBS count pegged it a 87,000.
Less or more, they're still rabidly stupid rubes who deserve to get shaken down by the grifters.
The gate was around 680K, so that amounts to about 7,80 a head, not including transport costs, food, lodging, ...
Remember, theyre payin' this to hear a guy who claims Jesus speaks to and through him.
Fucking morons.
