but his babble is much the same as it was years ago when Jon Stewart used to skewer him.

The piece in OP was someone's attempt to slam Beck.
And truly, one dies to have actually hear his words, his tone, his language more than to read it.

I have had the dubious pleasure of evaluating people for insanity in my career....and heard a lot of "word Salad" from certifiable loonies.

Beck and Palin both use a technique of political babble, logic free utterings with key words and idea tossed in to buzz shock their listeners.
Then these low IQ listeners obediently attend Reich Wing rallies, where they are sometimes interviewed by people like Stewart's cast,
who quite easily point out that the followers do not have the faintest idea of what they are talking about, nor any awareness of history, the constitution, or the economy.
But they DO go out and vote.

We need more stringent voting laws.
