You may call some commentators "entertainers" to demean their importance to the discussions at hand because you don't like what they have to say, but that will only satisfy your partisan bias, and not the political reality of their influence.

Richie: Would you differentiate between Glenn Beck and, say, Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert?

I call them ALL entertainers because that's what they are.

At least Beck tries to educate people and is not a slander machine like the other two.

They beg differentiation. Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and Glenn Beck are commentators first, and find humor in the subject matter at times. Jon Stewart; a little less so on the commentary first. Stewart primarily uses humor first, to illustrate his commentary and is often brilliant. Colbert, IMHO, is primarily a clown; good for a laugh at someone else's expense (at least if the object of scorn is a Republican). Bill Maher is just a hateful miscreant who thinks defaming Republican's is a spectator sport, and the excuse for his venom is, "I'm just a comedian".

That's my analysis.............back to you, Chet.

About the only thing about Beck that resembles an educator is his chalkboard. His words to me sound like fingernails scraping across it.

At least Glenn Beck can form a sentence without the help of a teleprompter.

I personally think that Glen Beck would kick B.Hussein Obama's butt in a debate without Obama's 30 writers and 12 teleprompters.

I'd buy a ticket to see that, as long as it isn't moderated by the liberal media...

Again with the teleprompter. That's getting like nails across a chalkboard too.

Glenn Beck provides no useful contribution to mankind. He is only out for the money.

Cleaner than scribbling with a Magic Marker on the palm of your hand like Sarah Palin does - and she still misquotes her remarks!!

Katzy, your really on tonight.

How can I delete the first two pages of this thread. The constant reminder of how this one got started is beginning to give me a facial tick.
