#2 poor fool seems to be doing the "Little Green Footballs" R to L flip. This will not end well for him.

#3 Scrabbling to save his collapsing business. He seems to have forgotten Air America.

#4 Beck must have had a psychotic break somewhere along the line. He's not making a lick of sense.

#5 He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother

#7 Glenn seemed to be going off the deep end for a while. Seems he finally tipped.

#9 Another regurgitated hit piece with no context. No where (that I can find) does Beck claim to be a BLM "supporter". In his original op-ed he says he has "empathy" for the "true believers". (Which he distinguishes from the "political insiders and instigators") And if his critique of Trump qualifies him as nuts we better lower a net over half the country.

#10 He went nutsy-coocoo a while ago. This is why everyone started ignoring him.

#11 Add him to the list with Ann Coulter and Peggy Noonan of commentators to ignore.

#12 @#10: I believe the precise Medical Term is "Cuckoo Bananas," but Dr. Steve can verify that.

#13 I have a toddler and have to watch alot of kids movies. It was used in Hotel Transylvania 2:p Quite amusing really.

#14 He developed the same symptoms that Charles Johnson at LGF developed a decade ago. It's a variant of "dysphoric self-inflicted self-aggrandizement self-image" disorder.

Non-medical folks use the term "attention whore".

#15 Well, his break certainly fits in with the type of year that has been occurring. Beginning to wonder if the Mayans just missed the year by 4.

#16 I like Ann Coulter, except she is a little skinny, maybe.

#19 Paul Ryan Syndrome. Ryan was defeated as running mate for the White House. Beck was not the most populate talk radio host. In both cases the gut feel was these people were simply ambitious people. It never was about principle.

#20 So Beck how believes Only Black Lives Matter.

BLM basic 'demand' is that certain persons never be held accountable for their crimes based on the color of their skin (and their political leanings... conservative blacks need not apply).

#21 In his own mind, Beck is just auditioning for the position of Kapo. He wants to be the last in line, regardless of the fact that as yet there is no line.

#22 Glen now a better man, Obama got in touch with his feminine side. I feel so left out, maybe I should go abuse myself, or wait, an hour at the shooting range should do it!

#23 Charles Johnson can at least play a mean guitar.
