Aw crap did I miss it? Did the entire power structure come crashing down yet?

In case you hadn't heard, Glen Beck, tired of playing second banana to the likes of... well.. everyone, announced yesterday that within 24 hours he was going to make an announcement that would bring down.. well.. everyone. The Dems, the GOP, the whole damn power structure...

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/glenn-beck-teases-whistleblower-revelation-that-will-take-down-gop-democrats-whole-power-structure/

"On his radio show today, Beck claimed that his staff at TheBlaze has been in touch with a “whistleblower” who could single-handedly “take down pretty much the whole power structure” of the United States.

“This country I believe is going to be rocked within the next 24 hours,” Beck began, “with some things that are going on in Washington and beyond.” He said that within the next day, he will be sharing revelations with his audience that will “greatly divide” the nation. “You are going to witness things in American history that have never been witnessed before,” Beck warned."

Well there are a lot of things I have never seen before. The foremost in my mind is Glen Beck being right just one time.

I just realized that he still has an hour left to make his announcement... probably that his big announcement is going to be delayed.

The entire right wing is going to step out of the way and let everyone have civil rights, health care, marry the person they love and break up the mega corporations into manageable businesses without a fight? That's about the only thing we've not seen. Do these idiots realize that if they really had the type of information that could bring down the government everyone would be after them and they'd be dead or thrown into a dark basement cell never to be heard from again within 12 hours?

... been "bullied through emails" into voting for health care reform. Maybe that was it? If so- whoa, let me settle myself from that "world-changing news".

"flash cards"

You'd think someone as "Christian" as Beck would understand the "signs" god is sending him...

MAybe he needs a billboard that just says "GLEN.. PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP -GOD"
