CNN will give just about any ramblin' conservative idiot their own show.  Why Glenn Beck?  I have no clue, but he's so bad that some conservative bloggers question whether or not CNN hired him because they felt his schtick would thoroughly discredit otherwise sound conservative views. 

Update (7/27/06): Sorry, got interrupted there.  Anyway, I just wanted to point out that yet again for conservatives there can only be criticism of the messenger, not the message.  After all, in the example I posted, Beck is running with the "This is World War III" line that supposedly "serious" conservative thinker, Newt Gingrich, introduced only a week or two ago.  The fact he can't lend any serious intellectual coherence to it either is understandable but doesn't say much for the idea in the first place!
