Glen Beck jokes about poisoning Speaker Pelosi's wine

Fox News has to recognize that Glenn Beck has finally crossed the line, although they likely won't. On his August 6th show, Mr. Beck fantasized about attending a fundraiser with Speaker Nancy Pelosi. With grape juice (Beck is an alcoholic) and a staffer with a Nancy Pelosi on his set, he jokes about her looks and demands "go ahead drink your wine!"

"By the way, I put poison in your -- no, I -- I look forward to all the policy discussions that we're supposed to have -- you know, on health care, energy reform, and the economy."


This is not funny, this is not rhetoric for national television, and this is not a difference of opinion. Beck, who has lingered at the edge on many levels is pushing a dangerous agenda for the far right.
