I went to see Wolverine today, and I saw something disturbing

During the commercials and previews, I saw that apparently Glen Beck will be doing a stand-up comedy routine that will be piped into movie theaters across America.

12. It's not even going to be broadcast in my town!

I think we're too liberal for Beck.

14. 450 theaters isn't really that many considering how many

theaters there must be in the USofA.

He'll be singing to the choir, no chance that he will convert anyone and plenty of chances for folks to see what a nut he is.

2. Yep...saw the preview thingy when I went to see Star Trek....

Only thing worse than seeing him on the small screen is seeing his face and "TEARS" blown-up on the big screen. What was it that the announcer guy said during it "Glenn Beck is getting alll his tears out now so he can be funny later"..and then they showed a big screen close up of his so called tears...bleh..didn't really need to see that, gross.

4. It it's true, a movement should be organized to boo him in the theaters. Maybe even ask for refunds.

17. Why would any sesnsible person be worried or disturbed by that? There are only a

handful of people who don't think he's a lunatic, and you don't think his "comedy" is going to suddenly start convincing sensible people he's got it together, do you?

He's not fooling anybody. Don't lose any sleep over it.
