After stating that "we left the Pharaoh," Beck says of Washington Monument: "Just like in Egypt. Isn't that strange?"

How to annoy Glenn Beck in five minutes or less
If we were all Jews then there'd be no reason to fight religious wars, and the Middle East would be at peace, none of which is true. And the whole Jesus thing wouldn't exist, Glenn. You seem to forget that.
I think his Magic Underoos are on a bit tight today. He seems to make less sense than normal.

Mmmmmm... pies...

Guess I need to teach you something since you seem to lack the information (did you go to public school?):
Judeo–Christian (sometimes written as Judaeo–Christian) is a term used in the United States, broadly to describe a body of concepts and values thought to be held in common by Judaism and Christianity, which played a prominent role in the founding of America, the development of characteristic American values, the American Revolutionary War and the United States Constitution. Classical Greco-Roman civilization and the Judeo-Christian tradition are considered the two fundamental sources of Western legal codes and morality.
The term refers to a moral tradition based on shared religious scriptures, referred to as the Tanakh or Hebrew Bible in Judaism and the Old Testament by Christians. Michael Novak describes the two core values of the Judeo–Christian tradition as liberty and equality These fundamental American values were derived by the founding generations of Americans in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries from their reading of the Book of Genesis, where all humans are said to be created equal, and Exodus, where the Israelites flee tyranny to freedom. Thomas Cahill describes Jewish belief in progress and moral responsibility as a characteristic of American culture that can be traced to a Judeo–Christian reading of the Bible.
According to Dan Brown (The Lost Symbol) the cap stone reads "Laus Deo" or Praise God.
I see these little cracks in that wall of separation differently, as a warning sign; It may seem perfectly harmless to throw the superstitious types a bone here and there (This example, In God We Trust on the coins, "Under God"),but inevitably, one of them is going to come along later and insist that this inclusion of religion, done to to pacify them, is proof that we're a theocracy.
Happy Thanksgiving to everybody, even those who can just feel thankful in an abstract sense, without a "personality" to thank.
I seriously doubt that there are any two objects on earth that Beck couldn't connect in six steps or less.
If you stuck a tiny micophone up one of the Mormonster's ear canals, I'm quite certain that the amplified racket from his brain could be used in place of waterboarding.
Growing up as a country boy, there was an old guy I knew who used an expression that I've never forgotten and it captures Beck perfectly: "Crazier than a peach orchard boar."
I was thinkin' more about what the boar goes through when those jagged peach pits come out...
The Washington Monument is wearing a 'tinfoil hat'?!?!?1!?

The US was founded on individual rights and freedom. As it states in the 1st Amendment, everyone has a right to practice their own religion and not to be forced by a government to observe a specific religion. For all that Beck claims to know about the US Constitution, you would think he would understand that.
At least, I hope so.
Makes you think, don't it.
We don't live in the Bronze Age. Today we've got this system of tubes and the google. There's great information at his fingertips. Is he claiming to be a Jew now, on the run from Pharaoh?
He'd be just as accurate with his predictions if he read goat entrails next to his blackboard.
I hope that someday they read his entrails (after he's done with them) to see what the hell is wrong with him.
Yeah Becky slaves built the White House! Isn't that strange??
SMH!
"The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."
That is why Beck is a dangerous enemy of knowledge. He truly has deluded himself into thinking he possesses it. And millions of his followers are equally delusional.
It is almost like I get hypnotized watching this man-child go through his daily bi-polar swings. I can't stand his fairy tales and chalk board antic's, but he can be entertaining if you realize he REALLY has loonies that believe what he says as he goes through his up's and down's.
And Beck should he ever be told he WAS bi-polar would relate those words in his own unique way. Such as "polar" relates to The North Pole, and global warming is all lies. The "bi" part, well...we all know where he's head with that. LOL
Really love reading your funny and insightful thoughts on Beck's word twisting and emotional propaganda.
It does make me feel better, to find a site where there are actual intellectual rants for once.
Come to think of it...maybe the "Rapture" might be its own reward for the rest of us left behind? :-)
