Nuclear M&Ms Cause a Blackboard Meltdown
Mar 15th
Oh my. Glenda has lost his marbles. Or, in his case, I guess they were M&Ms.
Yeah, a meltdown at a nuclear reactor in Japan is terrible. I mean, then Glenn couldn’t eat his M&Ms. And his pressure cooker would … wait … chalkboards figure in here somewhere … but as big a tragedy as a nuclear chalkboard would be for M&Ms, the Bond Market is the real tragedy.
Plus nuclear reactors will be sliding into the ocean in California. Plus no one died from the 3 Mile Island, so obviously this isn’t that big a deal because 3 Mile Island was in America and that stuff is in Japan, and George Soros is in America, SOOOOooooo …
<whew> Wow. 10 minutes of this kind of crazy is more than anyone should ever have to watch. And there are people that watch and listen to hours of this stuff every day. No wonder they are confused. It’s like being put in the logical equivalent of a paint-shaker. So many non-sequiturs and logical fallacies, all dropped in the same bucket and mixed up until nothing makes sense.
Remember folks, and I’ve said this many times before: Glenn Beck has no real education. He was one of those crazy Morning Zoo DJs making cracnk phone calls and poop jokes until he failed at that. After washing out at making fart noises on the radio, he suddenly became qualified to talk about nuclear reactors and bond markets and politics. He was barely qualified on the fart-joke front folks. And he failed at that. so go ahead and listen to him about any serious subject, but then don’t be surprised when anyone with more sense than your average garden vegetable laughs you out of the room.
He’s. Just. That. Stupid. And the blackboard doesn’t make him any more knowledgeable or better informed. Only someone as clueless as Beck himself would think that it would. It’s like watching a monkey write on the glass of his zoo enclosure with poo. Only he’s wearing a suit. And the monkey doesn’t think he’s making sense.
Can Bachmann Get Home Alone?
Mar 12th
Please run for President Michele. Pretty please? You may very well put comedy writers everywhere out of work, as your jokes write themselves.
“What I love about New Hampshire and what we have in common is our extreme love for liberty. You’re the state where the shot was heard around the world in Lexington and Concord.”

I can only assume that there is someone on her full-time staff in charge of making sure she gets home, since it’s pretty clear that she can’t get home alone. Does this staffer have to constantly be following along telling her where she is? Reminding her to breathe in and out? Making sure she spits out her gum before she attempts to walk? Seriously. How did this woman get to be this age without being killed by a flaming marshmallow or tripping on her shoelace and impaling herself on a pair of scissors? Is she a parody account that escaped into a (sort of) human? How is this woman explained?
Practicing Douchebaggery Without a License
Feb 3rd
So the lesson here is, apparently, make sure anything you turn in to the North Carolina State Department of Transportation is low-quality, dumbed-down work. If it looks “too good” State Traffic Engineer Kevin Lacy will report you for doing engineering without a license.
Lacy said he had told the group last year that it should hire an engineer to make its case. He said he was surprised to see engineering-quality work in a report that was not signed by a licensed professional.
“When you start applying the principles for trip generation and route assignment, applying judgments from engineering documents and national standards, and making recommendations,” that’s technical work a licensed engineer would do, Lacy said.

Seriously. But “I’m not trying to shut him up,” Mr. Lacy added. No, of course not. Who would ever get that idea? A group of citizens opposes your findings, and their work is as good as, if not better than, yours. But rather than say “wow, good work. Maybe you’re right” you respond with “Hey! That work’s too good! I’m reporting you!”
I think Mr. Lacy is practicing professional douchebaggery without a license. Appears he’s fully qualified, and doing the work with skill, but let’s see your license.
