I know a idiot when I hear one!!!!

Today Glenn Beck called Fareed Zakaria an idiot on his Radio show today. Really?



From Wikipedia:

After their mother's death, Beck and his older sister moved to their father's home in Bellingham­, Washington­, where Beck graduated from Sehome High School in June 1982....In 1996, while working for a New Haven-area radio station, Beck took a theology class at Yale University­, with a written recommenda­tion from an alum who was a listener at the time, Senator Joe Lieberman. The class was called "Early Christolog­y", but Beck soon dropped out, and that marked the extent of Beck's post secondary education.

Zakaria attended The Cathedral and John Connon School in Mumbai. He received a B.A. degree from Yale University where he was President of the Yale Political Union, editor-in-­chief of the Yale Political Monthly, and a member of the Scroll and Key society and the Party of the Right (Yale). He later earned a Ph.D. degree in Political Science from Harvard University in 1993, where he studied under Samuel P. Huntington and Stanley Hoffmann.

I'm not saying that people with the educationa­l background of Zakaria's can't be idiots, but Zakaria has been highly respected by both the right and the left for years. As a matter of fact, Zakaria was previously chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, hardly a left-wing icon.

If Beck wanted to have a discussion with several individual­s of his intellectu­al equal, he should invite Kate and her eight children on his show. Though the kids would probably carry the conversati­on beyond his intellectu­al breaking point. If he keeps his big mouth open a few more years,Glenn may go down as one of the biggest idiots of our time.
