Beck mocks Anthony Weiner--by eating a hot dog on O'Reilly
Glenn Beck, 'A Cannibal,' Eats A 'Weiner' On The O'Reilly Factor
by Frances Martel

Early last week, New York Congressman Anthony Weiner accused Glenn Beck of fraud in combination with one of his most popular sponsors, Goldline. Those who guessed Weiner would become a chalkboard regular were wrong; Beck reverted to his morning zoo radio roots and dedicated a website to the Congressman... and hot dogs. And yesterday, on his regular visit to The O'Reilly Factor, he even brought a wiener along to consume on the air, to advertise his #1 Google-searched site, WeinerFacts.com.

Bill O’Reilly called him a “cannibal” for eating a Weiner homophone on TV, but Beck called it pure coincidence, and responded to an accusation of being immature by pointing out that, regarding Rep. Weiner’s accusations against him and Goldline, “a lot of Weiners do that. Did you know that, technically, he’s the only Weiner in Congress?”

1. Proving once again that Beck has the emotional maturity of a 5th grader.

4. Conspiracy Theorist Beck is a childish boob
Too bad that he couldn't give O'Rly head instead.

Now THAT would be a statement.

Weiner jokes.... Jeez.

7. Beck consistently proves ...
... he has the maturity and intellectual wherewithal of a first-grader.

What's really scary is the fact that his audience actually look up to him as being much smarter than they are.

8. I think he just does it for the attention
All these stupid comments and acts are just his way of standing out in an already murky pool of republicans. It's like he feels he has to go big or somebody will tell him to go home.

12. You know back before he left CNN for FOX
Nobody even talked about Beck. I mean he had his on radio show, but he was small potatoes, compared to Limpballs, Billo, and Hannity. Beck is just an opportunist, at least IMO. He saw an opportunity to become the new age version of Morton Downey Jr. He say's and does ridiculous things and that gets more people to talk about him, which feeds his rather large ego. I expect, that much like Morton Downey Jr, Beck's eventually downfall will be his inability to separate his fantasy world from the real world. Eventually his masses will tire and move on.
