We Have No Words For This (update 2)

This is too much:


This guy needs to be arrested. Just. Take. Him. Away.

Update: OK we do have a few words for this, and none of them are kind. So this cementhead throws a frog into the boiling water and is then surprised it didn't hop out to make his point. What did he expect? That the frog would sprout wings and fly out? Look at the size of that pan he's got on his desk. How, exactly did he expect the frog to hop when it had nothing to hop from?

There probably are people more stupid than Glenn Beck in the world. We just haven't found them yet.

It doesn't surprise us that Beck can't understand that metaphors are, uh, metaphorical and not literal, something children are able to do around the age of two, and humans have been doing since the middle stone age. What does surprise us is there wasn't anyone at Fox studios who was the designated adult and could say killing an innocent creature to make a stupid point that isn't true anyway except in the fever swamp of your mind is probably not a good use of air time.

But then, it's Fox. What is a good use of their air time? Who knows? But let's give them more of it to fill.

Son of Update: OK, now Beck is saying it was a fake frog. We're not buying it. Look at him react when the frog doesn't jump out. He seems genuinely surprised as only someone truly, completely, irredeemably moronic could be. Also, if the point of the exercise was to show a frog jumping out of boiling water to illustrate his point, someone as thick as Beck should have have been told that a fake frog wasn't jumping out of anything.

Of course there's always the possibility that Beck didn't understand the metaphor in the first place and just felt like killing a frog because he was bored with pulling the wings off of butterflies.
