CNN: Hatin' on the Muslims

UPDATE: Glen Beck voted Olbermann's Worst Person in the World

Glen Beck is the new-ish pundit on CNN.

He is also a spectacular douche bag.

Beck is the first person in media political punditry who may just be as stupid as Rita Cosby. I mean, there's O'Reilly and Coulter and all those other inflammatory cowards who have no interest in reporting news. But at least - and it pains me to say it - at least they have some brains. I know, I know, their brains are working on nothing but ways to feed both their pocketbook and their rampant narcissistic personality disorder. But I have this uncanny feeling that isn't going away:

I suspect that Glen Beck is stupid as a bag of hair.

I am still at a loss for words in regard to the following exchange between Beck and Keith Ellison, first-time congressman for the state of Minnesota. Oh, and he happens to be Muslim.

BECK: Thank you. I will tell you, may I -- may we have five minutes here where we're just politically incorrect and I play the cards face up on the table?

ELLISON: Go there.

BECK: OK. No offense, and I know Muslims. I like Muslims. I've been to mosques. I really don't believe that Islam is a religion of evil. I -- you know, I think it's being hijacked, quite frankly.

With that being said, you are a Democrat. You are saying, "Let's cut and run." And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, "Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies."

And I know you're not. I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way.

ELLISON: Well, let me tell you, the people of the Fifth Congressional District know that I have a deep love and affection for my country. There's no one who is more patriotic than I am. And so, you know, I don't need to -- need to prove my patriotic stripes.

You bet your fat white ass Ellison doesn't need to prove his patriotic stripes. Upstanding taxpayers in Minnesota just elected Ellison to represent their interests in Washington. And I don't know if Mr. Beck is aware of this little-known fact, but Muslims can, in extenuating circumstances, be Americans. Especially if they were born here. Sometimes to American parents. On American soil. In the American fucking state of fucking Minnesota. No offense, Glen Beck. I know assholes. I like assholes. I've been to their frat houses, their football games, I've entertained their slanted, boring conversation.  But I really do believe that ignorance is THE religion of evil.

Sir, I think you need to prove to all of us that you are not working with our enemies.
And now, so does CNN.
