Welcome Back, Glenn!

Glenn Beck returned to the air today after his recent appendectomy, and I would like to extend him a big Welcome Back! Of course, I was hoping that now that the WIPO complaint he filed has been resolved (Beck lost, in case you didn't hear), he might have something to say about the rumors that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990. Sadly, it seems that Glenn has passed on yet another opportunity to address these vicious allegations.

The Red Phone is staying on Glenn's desk! Good News! This means that the 1990 Truth Hotline will not have to worry about getting lonely.

Glenn reiterated on today's show that the people must not be afraid to ask questions, but rather must question with boldness. In the spirit of Glenn Beck's own principles, I find myself now asking again (and again, and again, and again ad nauseum...): Did Glenn Beck rape and murder a young girl in 1990? Maybe one of these days there will be an answer from Glenn other than damning silence.

The 1990 Truth Hotline

The 1990 Truth Hotline is still silent. Will Glenn ever call and give his side of the story to clear his name? You can monitor the status of the hotline at http://1990truth.org/ Of course, there's always Glenn's take on this tactic and the silence it generates:

Glenn doesn't appear happy about this issue:

And yet, he still won't call. What are you hiding, Mr. Beck?

Glenn Beck can't spell (again)

Hot on the heels of his now-infamous OLIGARH debacle, Glenn Beck hosted an "Orthamologist" as part a roomful of doctors and medical students on Friday (10/18/09). They were there to give a "second opinion" on "Obamacare." I'm not entirely sure why the medical students were there, other than to fill the room, since they obviously would not know anything about dealing with insurance reimbursements or Medicare, or any of the other things that health care reform is supposed to cover. I did, however, enjoy seeing this gem:

Either Glenn Beck (or his staff, or the producers at Fox News) have once again failed spelling, or they are actually making up new medical specialties. I hope to FSM that is is the former.

Notably absent on Friday's show was Glenn's "White House Hotline". I suppose it's possible that Glenn is ditching the gimmick because he himself has yet to call the "Glenn Beck 1990 Truth Hotline" to correct any misconceptions that people may have about his alleged involvement on the brutal rape and murder of a young girl in 1990. Of course, there is also the more mundane possibility that there simply was not enough room for it. I guess we'll have to see if it makes a miraculous reappearance on Monday.

Will we ever get an answer to the question: Did Glenn Beck rape and murder a young girl in 1990? What about the other questions that have started popping up, like: Did Glenn Beck rape and murder a young cow in 1990? Now that the specter of bestiality has been raised, I guess all bets are off and we'll just have to wait and see.

Glenn Beck's "Red Phone"

Glenn Beck unveiled a new gimmick on his TV show, today. He has installed a "Hotline" for the White House to call and refute anything he says that is not true, and in true dramatic fashion, the "Hotline" is- literally- a red phone, manned by a staffer throughout the show.


This is a blatant continuation of Beck's "prove me wrong" tactics- placing the burden of proof on the accused as he infers and announces connections between President Obama and everyone from ACORN and SEIU to Hugo Chavez and Chairman Mao. He constantly checks throughout the show whether or not the phone has rung, even going so far as to have the staffer manning the phone verify that it is working by checking for a dial tone and having someone call the "Hotline" to verify that it is in working order.

Strangely, despite the availability of a phone number for Beck to call to dispute the rumors that he allegedly raped and murdered a young girl in 1990, he has not called to dispute or deny the allegations. By Glenn Beck's own logic, we must then conclude that it is, in fact, true that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990.


Meanwhile, Beck has also so far declined to sign the proposed stipulation to apply the First Amendment in his dispute with Isaac Eiland-Hall over the domain GlennBeckRapedAndMurderedAYoungGirlIn1990.com. Again, by his silence, we must infer by Beck's own logic that his lack of response means that he does not support First Amendment protections for the speech of others, just for himself.
