Late Night Video – Tears Of A Clown
You knew Glenn Beck was a phony, but here’s a video with the proof. Glenn Beck has Vick’s Vapo-Rub under his eyes to make himself cry during a photo shoot. Extra bonus Glenn Beck: Glenn Beck is trying to sue a man who runs a website called glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com. Conservative yakker Glenn Beck hasn’t (yet) been […]
Weekend Open Thread
What are you doing this weekend? Here’s something interesting, the 2009 Ig Nobel prizes.
