Did Glenn Beck kill a frog on live TV, or is he just an idiot?

You know, if Beck had been a real showman, he’d have bitten off the head of the frog first. Conservatives just aren’t rock 'n roll.

More importantly, why doesn’t Glenn Beck want us asking these questions?
I actually think the frog bit was sort of clever, and reasonably well executed.

Ba-Dum-tsshhhhh.

Also not terrible was his delivery of the “ok, forget the frogs” line.

So, how do you wrangle a toad? Or am I better off not asking?

That’s the first thing I thought of.

As God is my witness, I thought that frog would jump out.

That’s moran, bubba. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes, it’s a fake frog; yes, he knew it was a myth before he did it; yes, the “raped and killed a girl in 1990” thing is a fark meme that is copied directly from Gilbert Gottfried’s act at Comedy Central’s roast of Bob Saget. (“Why did we pick Bob Saget, who raped and killed a girl in 1990? Why should we waste 2 seconds on Bob Saget, who raped and killed a girl in 1990? First of all, it’s not true – that Bob Saget raped and killed a girl in 1990…”)

I don’t think I buy that it was fake. That would make absolutely no sense in context with the argument he was trying to make. The frog not jumping out completely undermined his point. I think the fake frog was just some post hoc, CYA scrambling.

Anyway, a guy who allegedly might have raped and murdered a young woman in 1990 is not going to care about a frog.

And then the Salamander was free to go?

Right?

Right?

Thank you, lissener, for being the word usage Nazi so I didn’t have to.

That’s a very valid point except we’re talking about Glenn freaking nutbar Beck.

Attn all Nazis: Grammar rules stop being enforced after midnight. Spelling has until 2am. Everyone noes that.

Anyway, how long until Beck accidentally drowns a horse while trying to prove that, while you can lead it to water, you can’t make it drink?

The idea of the whole frog in the boiling water thing wasn’t to make a point. It was set up like he was trying to make a point, but that was part of the gag. It was just a joke.

Wait, did Glenn Beck rape and kill a frog on his show? And then is am I to beleive he boiled a fake girl in 1990?

I wish he would deny these rumours if they aren’t true, which I assume they are false, but I understand if folks have questions.

They say that great minds think alike. Twisted minds as well, it would appear.

Actually, the same is true of his entire show.

Do you know what happens to a frog when it’s struck into boiling water?

The same thing that happens to everything else.

Instant deniability. When/if he says something not even his rabid fans can support, he’s got his fall back position: funny clown, see the funny clown!

awesome

If only someone had slipped in a poison dart frog in place of the intended victim…now that would’ve been worth seeing.

Well, now that it’s waking hours again, you’ve got a misspelling in your user name.
