Jon Stewart And Glenn Beck Connection – Conservative Libertarian

The best of The Daily Show this week was the one on Thursday night. Jon Stewart made it official that Glenn Beck is not a joke anymore and now important and influential. Jon went all-in on with a whopping 15-minute parody of the Fox News host. This was unbelievably funny, and pretty well done. When Stewart took “Arian” from “Libertarian” and asked, “Why an “i” instead of a “y”? Why, indeed?

Frankly, my problem isn’t in that Glenn Beck gets ratings or has followers. It is in the method he uses and how many people that “follow” him don’t realize that his show is opinion posing as information. My comment is based on several people/friends I know who just love this guy and constantly spout things he says.

Enjoy his show here:

    Libertarianism is OPPOSITE of theocracy… despite what John Stewart is alleging (with humor, I might add). History always repeats itself. But Jon Stewart totally makes me laugh.
