Van Jones on Glenn Beck

Well, that’s one way to do it. He talks to Glenn Beck at about 1:30. (via C&L)

I agree with most of what Van says, but I don't love Glenn Beck. I hate the motherfucker.

It's all I can do to pay attention to him. I used to think Bill O'Reilly was the lowest form of scum imaginable, and it's difficult for me to conceive of a world where that's not true. What's worse, here's a guy who's an order of magnitude more malicious, and they let him have a TV show.

Everything this guy says is dumb. The "skilled worker" (Bah!) in Detroit who can build a wind turbine would be able to find a venture capitalist to subsidize the product if there was any demand for such a turbine. But there's not.

He's unemployed because he's lazy and dumb. Probably an alcoholic.

And Glenn Beck read more books today than Sandra Bullock has read in her entire life. That's a fact, according to me.

I miss you, Mxrk. :)

You had me going up until the Sandra Bullock part. I know you could never turn against her.

Hahah... good.

that's probably the best argument against reading books i've heard.

You both need to admit it's a fucked up alliance, between these demi-god hollywood people and "intellectuals" like yourselves. I mean, it'd be like if Socrates was "in line" with Germanicus. It'd be like if Jesus stepped up to Pilate and was like, "No, you're right--I'm just some guy. We agree."

Or no, that alliance would be okay if it wasn't ALSO in line with the government. Geezus. It's like living in Rome and having Caesar, some awesome actor, and Jesus all agree. That'd make for such a crappy story.

Two words: Ronald. Reagan.
