I was watching the Glenn Beck Show today. He had John Bolton and Karl Rove on at the same time. They were all three of them agreeing how President Obama is an Islamic jihadist, Shining Path Communist, miscegenated Mud Person traitor, selling out white, Christian America to the slavemasters of the Axis of Evil. After them, for the lighter, softer women's view of the same issue, he had on Michelle Bachman, because she loves small children and fluffy kittens.
It was very well scripted and produced but I'm not convinced that the strategy is all that great. I think these commentators, while undoubtedly sincere, might have credibility issues with the target audience. Perhaps Fox should stick to some of their more intellectual and objective commentators, like Michael Hayden, Alberto Gonzales or Dick Cheney.
Did you see this show? Were you impressed? What do you think?

Glen Beck is wacked. Pretending to be non-partisan, he queries guests, and then screws his head and face up and asks them the most ridiculous questions.
My wife wonders why I watch sports all the time. Sheesh.
