Disgraced former Congressman Eric Massa, of the infamous Glenn Beck interview, is back again with a new charge that Dick Cheney is engaged in treasonous activity by hatching a conspiracy to get Gen. David Petraeus elected president in 2012 as a Republican. Massa told Esquire, “we would be witness to an American coup d’état.” Petraeus denies it, and Cheney is not talking.
Last night on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart delivered what could be the defining commentary on the Glenn Beck/Eric Massa interview fiasco. Stewart said, “But the more Beck struggled the clearer it became that he was opening Al Capone’s vault, only to find some dog eared, well combed over, old men’s fitness magazines.” Check out the video.
Today on his radio show Glenn Beck continued to react to the fact that he turned himself into a national laughingstock with his Fox News interview of former Rep. Eric Massa yesterday. Beck tried to place all of the blame on Massa for yesterday’s 60 minutes of train wreck television. The Massa interview could end up being a watershed in Beck’s career, because it was at this point his hubris and arrogance finally derailed his Fox News stardom.
Glenn Beck hosted Michelle Malkin on his radio show today, presumably to discuss Eric Massa’s appearance today on Beck’s Fox News show, but he and Malkin got into a huge argument over why Beck is promoting and giving air time to Massa. Malkin asked Beck, “How much oxygen do you really want to give a guy who is trying to save his job?” Beck then questioned whether or not he and Malkin were on the same side.
