The Glenn Beck Report

Radio and TV multi-gazillionaire Glenn Beck could lose his sight if everything turns out just right. Or so he says. According to Beck, he paid a doctor “a thousand dollars to tell him something he already knows”. Well, he knows everything, so shouldn’t he just save his money?

Beck says he has some kind of oddball disease called macular dystrophy. His condition has not prevented his eyes from tearing up, however, as he openly wept about his plight before a throng of hundreds. He told God that if he “needed [his] eyes, he could have them.” Yeah, like fat chance God would a) need Beck’s eyes, and b) Beck would have any say in it. They have eye banks, doesn’t God know about those? Don’t these Mormons get it? Not everything is negotiable. Besides, it says in plain English right on the jar that you’re supposed to keep Vapo-Rub out of your friggin’ eyes.

The sheer irony of this is not lost on anyone. Beck has been operating with “special” eyesight for a long time now, being able to see what everyone else can’t. “Huh?”, we asked. He’s been telling us about these conspiracies, oh, the humanity, can’t you SEEE…. like some kind of demented, rabid animal. He sees things that nobody else would notice. For example, “socialist art” in the Rockefeller building.  God DAMN, we’re surrounded by socialism, everywhere!

There is no doubt in my mind that Beck’s condition is treatable, and even though he has a $32 MILLION dollar a year salary, he had the balls to make a comment about getting “good health care while he still can”. This was a cheap shot and an insult to 32 million Americans with no health insurance AT ALL who can’t get treatment unless they go to an emergency room. All right, Glenn, please read this while you can still see, since you say you’re “too lazy to learn braille”. STFU. You piece of human garbage, with your distaste for your fellow man, I hope you get treated by socialists who know what to do with people like you.

I read a story about this over at the San Francisco Chronicle this afternoon, and of course they get lots more hits there than we get at our little website. I would recommend you go over there and read the comments. Those folks in SF can come up with a few good ones, to be sure. Some samples…

“I’ll bet God meant to hit mute but just missed the button”
“I’d recommend that he stop masturbating and drinking wood alcohol immediately.”

It’s no laughing matter when somebody goes blind. Usually. But this SOB is the same person who has mocked the homeless, the downtrodden, the displaced, the unemployed, the disabled, the disfigured, and the disadvantaged. He’s the guy who said “… little Sally Muckenfutch who has a finger where her eye should be so she can’t pick her nose”.

You know what, Glenn? I HOPE you go blind. You need another life lesson, one that you apparently never got as a child, or while you were driving around in your DeLorean snorting coke off the steering wheel and laughing at all the heathens and homos on your radio show. Hell, you don’t NEED to GO blind, you already ARE blind.

I don’t know what gets into me.  I’m going to lift the Mike Wiener “Savage” curse on you and ward it off for ANOTHER 90 days.  You don’t deserve it, because by all rights you ought to be selling Gold Bond powder door-to-door.  But somehow your Mormon lunacy, smears, phony conservatism, theocratic, paranoid schizophrenic smears and conspiracy theories remain on the air.

For more information on the story, check here, here, here, and here.  I have received a lot of email about these gestures of magnanimity,  both pro and con. I’d like to think I’m just helping a Mormon boy to make something good out of himself.

Remember the story about King Midas, Glenn?  Think about it.

Just when you might have thought the Becktardosis had reached its peak, by Beck fantasizing about having nookie with his sister and claiming that he owns civil rights, it gets BETTER!  That’s what I love about having a Glenn Beck website…. there is an unending fountain of bubbly, crazy goodness!

In the video below, some woman named Robin Potwora, spokeshole for a group that calls itself “Main Street Bites Back”,  postulates that Glenn Beck would be a good President because since HE doesn’t want to be President, and GEORGE WASHINGTON didn’t want to be President, ergo, Glenn Beck would be as good of a President as George Washington!  LOL this is totally priceless!  Enjoy!

Now I am definitely not a slave to fashion, and I would be the first person to stand up and defend anyone who is being criticized over that which is ‘skin deep’, namely the way somebody looks.  However, I just have to ask:  are we sure that this person is an Earthling?

Thanks to reporting at Huffington Post by Nicholas Graham.

Update 7/15/10
After I wrote the above, I felt that I was missing something by not making a visit to the website mentioned above. So to do the best reporting I can, I put on my noseplugs and hit the site…

This unfortunate alien-type (thank you, Devo!) won the bronze in Keith Olbermann’s “Worst Persons In The World” segment last night. Geez, Keith, I think she’s cracked, and her logic is hopelessly broken, and so on. But that’s just because she misses her family back on Planet Zorkon.

I went to visit the site http://www.mainstreetbitesback.com/ and I was left with the impression that it was created by unemployed conservative comedians and animation workers who have a lot of racial angst on their hands and too much time to express it. The site automatically starts playing a cartoon of Barack Obama talking about how he’s their unlikely pitch man but he’s going to be needing a job in 3 years so he’s trying to build his resume. (Oh, that’s pure hilarity!) “Barack” goes on to say that he wants everybody to do shout outs. I’m not sure WTF he means by that. I think it’s something Sarah Palin made up, and since there are a certain number of Palin-loving idiots I can see how the phrase would gather a small following.

If you feel as if you would like to contact them, (and I would HIGHLY recommend that you do), their email address is at AOL…

MainStBitesBack@aol.com

They have a phone, too! Call it, it’s toll free! (860) 618-3927

Or if you would like to visit, they are in Torrington, CT. You should probably call for an appointment first. They will send you a free T-Shirt if you send them 50 signatures for their petition. If you send them 100, I’d bet dollars to donuts that alien-lady will meet with you personally.

On the “Save the USA Tag Sale” link, you can buy what appears to be a number of Gucci knock-offs for extraordinary prices. Extraordinarily HIGH, I mean. I am not sure what the connection is between Gucci and Glenn Beck, but I will be emailing this to StopBeck, who is handling the Beck Boycott (and doing a fine job of it.)

OMG. Next link… “Defend Your Party”, a reality show “in development” by Ms. Potawatamie or whatever. Her own description is priceless…

In Development

A

Reality Game Show

‘Defend Your Party’ is a reality game show featuring everyday Main Street Americans going beyond the protest trail to compete for a cash prize that could help their political party win in 2012. A series of competitions ranging from jello wrestling matches to graveyard haunts will test the loyalty, nerves and whit of Americans willing to do just about anything to prove just how red or blue they really are!

Filming Schedule and news release to be posted here soon.

To be a contestant in a coming episode email us:

DefendYourParty@aol.com

LOL I love how she’s going to “test the whit” of Americans. If she tests herself, it will only take half as long. That will save some time.

The Webcast Show link takes you back to the same inane and amateurish “satire” animation of Obama “pitching” MSBB.

Oh, groan. The News Release link “FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE” is headed “Glenn Beck Stands up in 2012″. The headline implies that Beck has decided to run. The story below it just talks about how these hosers have taken the name of the 9.12 Project and incorporated it into their own business. I can’t imagine Glenn would be very happy about any of this, if he ever finds out about it.

The next link, Mission, is a link to the video above. Then they have a Contact link which asks for more money.

OK, now I’ve been there, I can tell you that the site is nothing more than a blatant moneymaking scheme running off of Glenn Beck’s name. Call it a “cottage industry”. The site is utterly devoid of any real content; there is no explanation given about why they think Beck would be a better candidate than anyone else. Oh, I know, it’s because we’re groupies! LOL, please call them today and let them know how much you appreciate and support their idea of Beck for President. Think of the gift to all the other candidates! Beck has more walking-around money than it takes to run. He’s got the Mormons behind him. He’s got the Xtians behind him. He’s got about 1 million viewers behind him. He’s going to beat Obama. What could go wrong?

LOL

I am not exactly sure how I missed this but you have to see it to believe it. Click the link below…

Glenn Beck riffing about doing his sister.

Oh, but it’s to make a point, see, that it’s perfectly normal to be a homophobic bigot.

This video and topic will be explored in an upcoming page that Qu1n1an is working on. This is jaw-dropping. It’s No. Effing. Way. It’s ho-lee scheiss, Bat Man.

It’s Glenn in his own words. Enjoy, if you can keep from laughing and hurling at the same time.

-Wexler

Hi everyone – this is my first post on the main page of the site. I’m very excited to be contributing over here, and hopefully I can help to bring the site to its full potential. Anyway, today I’ll be posting the first entry in what I hope will become a regular fixture on the site – The Glenn Beck Program Breakdown. In this feature, I will review an entire episode of the Glenn Beck Program, and call him out on his crap minute-by-minute. Note however, that there’s simply too much BS in every episode for me to note it all, so without further ado, let’s begin!

Glenn Beck Program – June 29th, 2010

Minute 0: Accuses the entire New York Times staff of being communists. The media only has a liberal bias, Glenn, because truth has a liberal bias as well.

Minute 1: Talks about the money that Canadian taxpayers are spending on the G-20 summit. Oh, so now Beck cares about Canada! And here I was thinking that he hated it, and its commie health care system.

Minute 2: He’s showing a hand-drawn chart displaying various countries’ GDP per capita. IT’S ERRONEOUS. You’re full of crap Beck. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28PPP%29_per_capita

Minute 7: Just listen to him, going on about the rich keeping their money. He never mentions the poor. He clearly doesn’t care about the lower class.

Minute 8: “America, I don’t think you’re stupid. But when a guy gets into a ‘scissors’ lift…” He repeats the term again at 10 minutes.

Minute 8: He’s going to make a solemn swear – and he puts his left hand up to his right side. Oops.

Minute 9: Discussing a phony timeline that he’s made, says “before Christ”. You can’t bring religion into news. This is entertainment, plain and simple. Religion is just another lie anyway.

Minute 12: “This guy in Cambodia… this general area.” He’s unable to pinpoint Cambodia on the globe – he’s not even in the right region.

Minute 12: He’s talking in a mock Russian accent now, clearly intending to be an “evil” character. What’s the purpose of this? Does he realize that the Cold War ended 20 years ago? Xenophobe.

Minute 14: Now he’s talking about Obama wanting to stop drilling for oil. Beck says we should continue to drill, and keep it all for ourselves. Well, yeah, keeping it all four ourselves is the only way that we’ll have enough to last a significant amount of time.

Note: There’s a long break here in which Beck goes in circles, repeating points that he made before.

Minute 25: He’s making an argument that government spending doesn’t work – and, oh, he just lost his own argument. He demonstrates that after WWII, after all the big spending, everything was relatively fine. Unintentionally beating down his own argument, the fool.

Again with the circles. This is how he fills his time apart from lying.

Minute 44: Oh! What do you know. He’s touting his new book in the middle of the show. This is a fiction book by the way. He’s not even using it for excerpts, he’s just giving it airtime.

Minute 45: Talking about the protests at the G-8/G-20 by people wanting to end capitalism. He calls them anarchists despite visual signs advocating communism and socialism. He also displays quotes calling these people servants of the community. Maybe that’s why he doesn’t like them.

Minute 46: He’s referring to that story where Mao was on an ornament on the white house Xmas tree. No, Obama did not put that there – they got community groups to decorate the tree. But I’m sure Beck knows that.

Minute 52: Oop, now he’s slandering the late Senator Robert Byrd. Leave it Beck to disparage the dead.

Minute 53: Talking about Byrd’s former KKK affiliation (which he apologised for on multiple occasions). Really Glenn? Somehow I think that you would have been first in line behind him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0tgvWxC_6A

Minute 59: “White people of America: Warning! you’re going to learn stuff about our country that you didn’t know, but you need to see it. African-Americans: I warn you – you’re gonna find heroes, American heroes, that for some reason have been erased.” I like how he narrows the whole thing down to these two races. Any Korean or Spanish viewers can just forget about it.

Well, there you have it! Hope you enjoyed it, or at least learned a little something about the brilliance that is Glenn Beck. Look forward to more in the future!

Wexler sez….

Thank you for the EXCELLENT work on deconstructing Beck’s program. What patience! Amazing!

Sorry about putting up the Michael Moore picture. I take full responsibility for it, feel free to take it down!

Al and Tipper Gore announced today that they are planning to divorce.

Given that Glenn Beck is a full-time hypocrite about “leaving the family out of it”, and given that he is prone to attacking advocates of issues rather than the issue itself, and given that he’s bat-shit crazy, we here at The Glenn Beck Report can confidently say that Glenn will begin a new attack on Al Gore as soon as today (June 1).

I will be following this story closely and report what he says as it flows from his lying mouth like poop from a goose. Maybe he’ll do a little skit about it, like he did when he was imitating Malia Obama asking her dad why he “hates white people so much”. Oh, but leave the children out of it.

I have a couple of other stories in the hopper. I want to report on why Falwell’s Liberty University, a fundamental “Christian” college, had Mormon cultist Glenn Beck deliver the commencement address. Also, I’m working on my “Glenn Beck – Domestic Terrorist” page which will clarify exactly how and why Glenn Beck is advocating the overthrow of the US government. And, still in the works, “Glenn Beck VS the Fundie Xtians”, part 3. This has been complicated by Glenn’s commencement speech at Liberty U. I believe I have already solved that riddle, and will be reporting on the alliance made in hell.

UPDATE 6/3/10

Instead of taking on Al and Tipper directly, Glenn Beck put up a link to a Newsbusters story (right wingnut lying sacks of shit) that states that CBS News thinks Al & Tipper broke up because of George W. Bush.

Perhaps Glenn has learned his lesson about taking people on for family matters. I don’t think so. He’s not done with Al and Tipper Gore just yet. I have a hunch he’ll try to sneak some more loathsome attacks in later. I’ll be watching you, Glennie…

Glenn is already known for his psychotic episodes on live television.  There is talk that a high percentage, even as much as 60% of his audience, tunes in because of the train wreck freak show.  It’s not because they like Glenn or agree with him, they want to see the man-baby melt down.

On Friday, May 7, Glenn didn’t disappoint.  He was hosting his “Founder Friday” show, where he “educates” an audience of handpicked, paid actors about topics that any school kid in America already knows about.  Except with Glenn, it’s like he just discovered it and it’s so moving, it’s so, it’s, it’s…. WAAAAAHHHH!

So Beck starts up about George Washington, whose greatness Glenn attempts to usurp and caricature as his OWN greatness by assumption.  The assumption is that Glenn is an authority to judge the relative merits of George Washington as a President by him having a TV show and having read a book (or claiming to have read it).   Glenn measures his own greatness by implying that he is actually informing you about the greatness of George Washington.  Sorry, Glenn, but you screwed the pooch on this one.  You don’t have the gray matter upstairs to interpret history.  Those of us who actually have studied history, particularly American history and government, already know that you are a whack job full of misinformation looking for a gullible, uninformed vidiot to dump it on.

Therefore Friday’s show was a perfect example of how Glenn can’t help from choking up when he’s telling you about his right wing Mormon fantasies concerning America.  If I were a director, at 3:27 of this short segment I’d be yelling “CUT. Where’s the motivation???”

Glenn breaks down in tears over the notion that as the American government was forming in post-Revolutionary America, people thought that Washington would be a natural for President as he had already proven himself to be a leader and had name recognition (mostly good).  WTF, Glenn.  What’s to cry about, man-baby?  Did you forget to take your Xanax again?

Watch and enjoy…

OMIGOD.  Again, at 7:10, Glenn can’t stand the idea of Washington having to put on glasses to read a letter.  Holy Mormon juice, Glenn, if you’re going to cry about that, why don’t you ever cry about the millions of Americans who can’t even get glasses when they need them because they don’t have insurance that pays for vision?  (I’m wearing a prescription that is at least 8 years old and sometimes my eyes water but it ain’t because I watch Glenn Beck and need a good cry.)

IN OTHER NEWS….

Glenn told Don Imus that Mother’s Day is a “progressive scam”.  He doesn’t know what they are trying to get us to do, but he’s not doing it.  Well, of course you can’t do it, Glenn, because your mother committed suicide so she wouldn’t have to look at your fat face again. That was years after your father ran out claiming it HAD to be somebody else’s sperm.

For those of you who don’t know the history of Mother’s Day, (like Glenn Beck who claims in this very conversation to have researched it himself) here’s a link that explains the origins of Mother’s Day . Hint: It’s NOT a progressive plot and it’s not a conspiracy from the greeting card companies. Naturally, being a Mormon, Glenn would never think of a day honoring women, which to him are not persons but property that ought to STFU and spit babies out of their vaginas like a Tommy gun.

In the same conversation Glenn suggests that Obama may have blown up the BP oil rig.  The crazy train chugs along….

Just a quickie…

Glenn Beck’s ratings have dropped. Everyone has their 15 minutes, Glenn, I just hope yours doesn’t run out before the year I took this domain name out for. BTW, I’d be interested in selling it to you, Glenn. Have your people call my people, we’ll do lunch. I’m thinking maybe 1/32nd of what you made last year?

UPDATE 4/29: Here is an article that has the full information about Beck’s ratings drop.  He’s lost a million viewers in 9 months.  http://mediamatters.org/blog/201004150032

George Bush is a Progressive?

I just about dropped my beer when I heard that one. Holy shit, Glenn, not even you can twist that one around. OK, now I suppose you have to have SOME explanation as to why the Nazi Communist Marxist Fascist Socialist half-cursed man in the White House is carrying on with pretty much the same policies that Bush did. But calling Bush a “progressive” defies even the most active imagination of a hyperactive mind like yours.

Progressive? Since when do progressives start illegal wars, give tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations, gut environmental protections, de-ball OSHA, push for fossil fuel consumption, run around the world like a bully, ignore both Constitutional and statute law, and that’s just what he got done before breakfast?

Anyone who is calling Bush, ANY Bush, a “progressive” obviously does not know their ass from a hole in the ground.

But that was obvious already. Maybe by calling Bush a “progressive” you can get your ratings to come back up…?

Stay tuned, the lunacy is just beginning….

In the week before the April 19 armed march on Washington (to commemorate Waco and the celebrate the Oklahoma City bombing),  there have been numerous attempts to revise and whitewash history.  Now that the right wing has lost any political credibility, they have been pushed further to the right and mesmerized by the mindless yammering of the cynical and insane loudmouths in the right wing media.  Glenn Beck is the combination of cynicism and insanity.  His brain is malfunctioning from years of drug and alcohol abuse, a lousy home life, untreated mental illness, and membership in a cult (Mormons).

I am working up a page of Glenn Beck quotes to document his calls to the faithful for treasonous and murderous acts against the legally elected government of the United States.  The following is an excerpt from an email I received from David Swanson, author of the book Daybreak – Undoing the Imperial Presidency and Forming a More Perfect Union.  David Swanson is the co-founder of the After Downing Street Coalition, which describes themselves as

…  a nonpartisan coalition of over 200 veterans groups, peace groups, and political activist groups that has worked since May 2005 to pressure both Congress and the media in order to hold Bush, Cheney, and their aides accountable for crimes and abuses of power. The coalition takes its name from the emergence in May and June of 2005 of several documents that quickly came to be known as the Downing Street Memos.

Daybreak is an excellent book which I would recommend for anyone who is interested in repairing the damage done to our government through decades of laziness and inattention by the electorate.  This book documents the problems and proposes solutions.  I would suggest that the TeaBaggers who look to Glenn Beck ought to do a little bit of research so they have some ideas instead of just running around with guns like a mob waving Gadsden flags and signs with pictures depicting the President as Hitler.  Obviously, they are clueless.  This book would be a good place for them to get a clue.

But I digress. Here’s the quote from David Swanson’s email that I thought was appropriate for the ignorant, Astro-turfing, racist traitors that will be in the streets on Monday, April 19 celebrating Waco and the Oklahoma City bombing.

You didn’t get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.

You didn’t get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate energy policy.

You didn’t get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.

You didn’t get mad when the Patriot Act got passed.

You didn’t get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.

You didn’t get mad when we spent over 600 billion (and counting) on said illegal war.

You didn’t get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in Iraq.

You didn’t get mad when you saw the Abu Grahib photos.

You didn’t get mad when you found out we were torturing people.

You didn’t get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.

You didn’t get mad when we didn’t catch Bin Laden.

You didn’t get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter Reed.

You didn’t get mad when we let a major US city drown.

You didn’t get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark.

You finally got mad when.. when… wait for it… when the government decided that people in America deserved the right to see a doctor if they are sick. Yes, illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, stealing your tax dollars to make the rich richer, are all OK with you but helping other Americans… well fuck that.

That about right? You know it is.

After Downing Street

Have a nice day, Glenn, hope you’re enjoying your $32 million.

UPDATE 4/15/10

After having a day or so to reflect on the above post, I thought a couple of updates were in order.

First off, Rachel Maddow did a great job of clarifying the marches last night in the set up for her interview with Homeland Security Czar Janet Napolitano. There is one armed march, one with no guns. Apparently the Capitol Police will not allow gun-toting maniacs into the nation’s public square. However, there will still be one armed march across the river to the point where Astro-turfers believe they can provoke and threaten the US Government (meaning you and me) as much as they want.

Secondly, the Oathkeepers, a group of self-proclaimed protectors of the People (excellent article about them in Mother Jones) have dropped out of the armed march. Apparently they thought some of the rhetoric was too inflammatory. I dunno, if it’s too inflammatory for Oathkeepers, a group that swears to disobey legal orders from superiors in the military and police force, I’m not sure with whom the TeaBaggers will resonate. The ghost of Benito Mussolini?

Thirdly, the link at AfterDowningStreet given above contains the excerpt that I posted. However, it goes on to equally scold the Democrats, who are another wholly-owned subsidiary of Corporation World USA. I chose to use the section above because it is so apropos for the TeaBagger wingnuts in the street.

Lastly, there is a larger point here and I want to make sure it’s not missed. Those of you who get it, please forgive me while I slap those who don’t get it in the face with a large, wet trout. The reason why y’all suddenly got religion over the Constitution is because they’s a darkey in the White House.

Thanks, and have a nice day, especially you Mormon cultists who believe that black people are cursed by God.

UPDATE 6/14/10
Sorry it took me so long to getting around to this, but I finally did find a transcript of Beck’s CPAC speech. You will NOT want to miss reading this if you haven’t already. It’s one thing to see the performance, yet another to read it.

Thanks and a BIG HOWDY to Topher Lynch, who not only took the time to transcribe this at great personal sacrifice, but also had the sense to post it at Gather. A tip of the hat, America thanks you!

UPDATE: 2/27/10

Glenn Beck’s slash-and-burn schtick fired up the CPAC loony bin by repeating lie after distortion after smear, the most comforting material that he could present to America’s dead political party. It’s hard to imagine how so much crap could come out of a human being in a short period of time.

Beck (with Palin and the rest of the GOP) is attempting  to drag the TeaBaggers into the fold,  kicking and screaming, but they are so thick that most of them have yet to realize it.  Some of them are getting suspicious. (Hmmm… both of them are paid contributors to Faux News, the official propaganda organ of the GOP. Palin was the Vice Presidential candidate for the GOP in the last election. Glenn Beck has never said one nice thing about any Democrat.  Sarah Palin has repeatedly stated that she has no use for the “liberal elitists” and would rather be chasing down animals in a helicopter and shooting them with weapons designed for war than serving as Governor in a corrupt system.   Hmmm. D’ya think…?)

Tonight we hear that Beck and Palin are going on a 2-stop tour to TeaBagger-land, the first stop in Oklahoma, the intellectual center of gravity in America and also home to lots of fancy dancing by men in cowboy hats with shit-kickers that never saw any shit. Watching these two on the same stage reminds me of the dance scene with Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle in Young Frankenstein, doing the soft shoe to “Puttin’ on the Ritz” for a thrilled crowd until an explosion casts a flash of light on them.

At that moment the monster goes wild and runs amok. Surely whatever they say or do cannot stand the light of scrutiny by a critical press. Why else would Sarah Palin try to shut them out of their events? My other question… would Gene Wilder consider impersonating Glenn Beck for a parody remake of the scene?

The Beck CPAC speech lies and abuses have been well-documented by Ryan Witt in the Des Moines Register at the following link:

http://www.examiner.com/x-5738-Political-Buzz-Examiner~y2010m2d21-Video-Commentary-and-fact-check-of-Glenn-Becks-CPAC-speech?#comments

I am looking for an “official” transcript of the speech and will try to get one up on a separate page. Ryan has done a great job of detailing the lying sack-o’-doody, but in case he’s missed any I’ll be doing my own fact check as well.

BTW, you should be careful when you search for Beck transcripts. I put this into Google and it spit up a link that tried to infect my computer. If this happens to you, please press Alt-F4 (the Alt key and the F4 key simultaneously) until all the windows related to your browser close. In this process, you may reboot your computer if you press the combination after all windows are closed; this is still better than having to disinfect your browser.

I am not sure who would want to discourage you from reading a transcript of Glenn Beck’s CPAC speech, which is why I will post a clean copy here when I get one.
