    I wouldn't call Beck a competitor. I don't think he's on at the same time opposite Countdown.

    Olbermann's Worst Person in the World is a standing bit he does recognizing idiots and others for their outlandish comments or actions. He does send many conservative commentators to the medal stand, but he does have a sense of humor. The other day he included himself because during a recent visit on Conan, he failed to mention Dan Patrick and The Big Show

    I've never heard of Beck. Looks like his career just took a nose-dive.

    But I hear talking heads flirt with each other all the time. They set a bad precedent, and this guy just stepped over the line.

    There's a way to make that point without saying something like: Hey baby, what are you doing after the show?

    Beck was trying to be glib. He ended up looking like a creepy asshole.

    This dude needs to be stopped. Not too long ago CNN was running these awful teases of Glenn Beck gleefully predicting "World War III." It was a theme he ignorantly held to for a week. Yeah, that's just great.

    He's a loser, so why don't we kill him?

    This disturbed me. What the heck was he thinking, clearly he was not.

    I like how the woman was just silent. She could have laughed or played along but she just hung him out to dry.

    I think she was stunned . . . after a second or two, she smiled like she was going along with the joke, but basically she was just stunned.

    Beck, like many of the second wave of talk-show yahoos, seems like a poser. He's playing an a-hole because he thinks that's what sells these days. Tom Leikis has made a career of it.

    The comment was stupid, absolutely, but was it worse than the principal selling meth and watching gay porn in his office? Wow. if making a stupid sexist comment is worse than being a dope dealing, smut pedalling principal, this world has it's priorities mixed up.
