After much searching I have been able to acquire a picture of Glenn Beck’s daughter. I am making this picture available in the spirit of full transparency, although I hope she never wears any clothing that is actually transparent. Just look at her. Calling her a pig would be insulting to pigs. This is someone who could be justifiably confined to a crawl space in the attic to protect the sensitivities of the rest of civil society.
That said…Please rest assured that the foregoing was meant to be facetious in order to make a point. Last week there was a very public feud between Glenn Beck and the McCain family. It erupted after Beck broadcast a prolonged and insulting segment wherein he mocked John McCain’s daughter for appearing in a public service announcement to bring awareness to skin cancer, which both of her parents have had.
Beck spent much of the segment pretending to vomit into a trash can at the sight of Meghan McCain. He and his radio zoo cronies relentlessly made fun of her appearance without ever acknowledging that she was doing this on behalf of an important charitable cause.
This isn’t the first time Beck has ventured into insulting the children of his political opponents. He and his crew previously attacked the intelligence of President Obama’s eleven year old daughter, Malia, calling her stupid. The outcry following that incident resulted in Beck making this apology:
“I broke my own rule about leaving kids out of political debates. The children of public figures should be left on the sidelines. It was a stupid mistake and I apologize – and as a dad I should have known better.”
Exactly. As a dad, how would he feel if his daughter was mocked and characterized as ugly, fat, and stupid? How would he feel if Keith Olbermann pretended to vomit at the sight of his daughter? And how can he be excused for having done so after his prior antics for which he was forced to apologize?
Remember, this is the same man who once called, on the air, the wife of one of his radio competitors two days after she had suffered a miscarriage and “joked” that “he [her husband] can’t do anything right.”
Meghan wrote a brilliant response to Beck that he ought to take to heart, if he has one. Noting that he has daughters of his own she wrote that…
“There really is no need to make something like my participation in a skin-cancer PSA into a sexist rant about my weight and physical appearance, because I’m going to let you in on a little secret, Glenn: you are the only one who looks bad in this scenario.”
Glenn Beck likes to portray himself as a devout Christian who advocates standing for strong family values. Apparently his idea of values includes repulsive and hurtful insults to people who are performing actual acts of charity. I hope he recalls this incident when one of his daughters comes home crying because they were made to feel ugly by some jerkwad who is just like their dad. But I doubt he has learned anything because he went on Bill O’Reilly’s show Friday and refused to apologize.
Any man who thinks Meghan is “ugly” is probably just counting down ’til he gets caught with a “wide stance” in an airport restroom…
No shit dewd, Meghan McCain is hot as hell. WTF is this asshole talking about? He can’t fInd anything else to do with his (insane) political radio show then to talk about her? Was the psa even remotely political? Just looked up some pics of her…..I don’t…understand. Hot blonde with giant tatas?? Glenn McCarthy, you truly are insane.
So any one who thinks Meghan fatass is ugly is a homo? Nice mentality. You might think she’s hot as hell but many of us don’t. Not only do I think she’s ugly but she a fatass as well. The think I hate most about her is clearly is a liberal but because of her family she wont come out as anything but a conservative. I would have more respect for her is she just stood up for her principles and proclaimed herself a liberal. She’d still be a ugly heffer, but she would be an honest heffer.
I think Meghan McCain nailed it in her response when she said he is the only one who looks bad in this scenario. What a dipshit!!! Of course, Beck looks awful in most things he does, just look at his show. At least we don’t have to do that much longer.
I would just like to correct the post that Beck portrays himself as a devout Christian. He is a Mormon, and there is a vast difference in theology.
Mormons claim to be followers of Christ, like it or not, that makes them some sort of christians.
Who is Beck to criticize anyone’s appearance? You can’t get any more stupid looking or ignorant acting than Glenn Beck. Ugly people who live in ugly houses shouldn’t be throwing ugly stones, now should they?
P.S. I’m not usually one to defend conservatives, but I’ll make an exception in this case. Meghan McCain is a beautiful young woman who happens not to resemble the usual Ann Coulter stick figure clacking around like a bag of bones. I’d say that’s a plus for Ms. McCain… more power to her.
