speaking of fundamentalists.. the news and weather from the perspective of sanity

British understatement

Hilarity ensues when observing the commentaries of American (and British) newscasts and the descent of madness. In most cases, the mere presentation of events is sufficiently humorous, at least until one realizes that there are human beings in this country that persist in this mindset and one eventually has to attempt to reason with them. As a warning, there is about 10 seconds of a ridiculous country music song.

Glenn Beck...another reason to move. I hear people watching videos of him getting passed around at work through emails, and I work with well educated people. He seems to have picked up the behavioral patterns that were so successful for televangelists...Cry you moron, cry your stupid little eyes out.

If they're getting passed around as parody, since Stewart has been feeding off his insanity for about 2 months now (since he moved over to Faux news), then this is probably a good sign. Unfortunately, this is Ohio.

Yes, it's definitely not for a good laugh for them. They think this is all very serious, which, is kinda funny as long as you don't think about the consequences of a lot of people thinking like that.
