Is it like being high? The benefit of a 100 year plan is that it never actually has to produce anything, because every jerkoff who bought your book will be long dead halfway through. -Joe ---

Czar is an unofficial nickname for someone who works at the White House to coordinate the work of different agencies or to place an emphasis on a particularly acute problem. They have no czar-like authority, they don’t have pogroms against their enemies, they just make recommendations for policy in the executive branch. The term was first used under Nixon and the same sort of position has been used in every administration since then. There is nothing wrong with it, and in fact it may be a better way of getting things done. The fact is that the right has exploited the sheep-like nature of the current conservative movement to gin up a controversy out of whole cloth. Using the word “czar” to suggest that there is something nefarious shows an utter lack of understanding or a calculated attempt to mislead the public. ---

> [@elucidator](#): > > Disgusting! We have no evidence of necrophilia, there is no reason to suggest this is anything but an ordinary, wholesome rape and murder scenario! There is no cannibalism or necrophilia at all in the Royal Navy. And when I say none at all, I do mean that there is a certain amount. ---

> [@BrainGlutton](#): > > There is no cannibalism or necrophilia at all in the Royal Navy. What? Did Glen Beck serve in the Royal Navy? That explains a lot. Wasn’t it Winston Churchill who said that the Royal Navy was all about “rum, sodomy and the lash”? (And as First Lord of the Admiralty during two wars Sir Winston would know.) So was Glen Beck drinking rum as he sodomised and lashed that poor child? I hope he can tell us this is not true. ---

> [@Giles](#): > > So was Glen Beck drinking rum as he sodomised and lashed that poor child? I hope he can tell us this is not true. In a word, no. It is well known that Mr. Beck prefers to drink low-fat milk whenever he is sodomizing and lashing young women. ---

> [@Clothahump](#): > > He’s the Book Czar. Beck is obviously poking fun at Obama and his army of czars. > > Beck’s point, from day one, is that the government is running hog-wild and out of control. And he is absolutely right. If he could articulate that point without all the other bullshit I could stand him. I promised a friend to watch his show for a week rather than dismiss him as a moron. Like a like a lot of pundits I can probably find several points that we agree on, but listening is like wading through shit to find the pot your dog ate. It just isn’t worth it to me, and the I think crap he spews outweighs his valid points. You sure won’t fix an out of control government by replacing corrupt democrats with corrupt republicans. ---

> [@Gorsnak](#): > > Now, now. We don’t _know_ that he raped and murdered that poor girl. Still, the longer he goes without at least addressing the allegations the more it looks like he has something to hide. Did you guys hear that he recently lost his lawsuit trying to force down the Web site [glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com](http://glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com)? I didn’t read the decision. As far as I know it’s because Beck was unwilling or unable to provide evidence he didn’t rape and kill a girl in 1990. Now, consider that he refused to provide evidence he didn’t rape and kill a girl in a **court of law**. That’s not exactly evidence of anything, but it really makes you wonder why he’s so reluctant to prove he did not rape and kill a girl in 1990. It’s one thing to not address on his show whether he raped and killed a girl in 1990, but this was court. It’s serious. Also maybe it had something to do with the Web site being satirical protected free speech. I don’t know for sure.
