Dare I Say It? Glenn Beck's Playing the God-Card Now Makes Bill O'Reilly Look...
"Secular". :rofl:

Memo to Bill O'Reilly and Roger Ailes, Glenn Beck understands and now manipulates your slavish Fox audience even better than you do.

Beck is playing the god-card that Ailes has only toyed with, that Karl Rove only ever pandered to.

Glen Beck "gets" the "crazy" within the crazy Fox Audience and he's taking it to a place where Roger Ailes can't go himself.

Glen Beck makes Bill O'Reilly now look like one of those very people he demagogued against: secular talking heads. Compared to Glen Beck, I have to wonder if the serial sexual-harasser, Bill O'Reilly, is a true Christian, after all. Doesn't seem like one to me compared to Beck.

And, how will Greta Van Scientologist be able to keep up with the god-fever and god-talk that Beck is creating?

1. Could it be a ploy to make RW appear to shift left a bit? n/t

2. People like Beck
Coulter, Malkin, Rush, Hannity etc used to serve that function. Though, I do think they are all sort of starting to blend together much more. Hard to tell much difference from the RW commentators and those Republican candidates for office.

3. He's cornered the crazies to himself.
I think it's hilarious.
