Glenn Beck's at it again. Gotta love him. It's remarkable to see someone so unfamiliar with a subject attack it with such imprudent abandon. Beck's show is the daily embodiment of a screamer video where he catches wind of something, literally anything, and reflexively wigs out. Trying to write a wrap-up of this guy's show is seriously hard. At first I thought I would criticize all of the things he said, but there are too many and they're too ridiculous to take seriously. So then I tried to summarize the clip, but about halfway through it becomes completely scatterbrained and impossible to summarize. Anyway, I figured this picture did a good a job as any at capturing Glenn Beck in this clip and in general.
In all seriousness, it's well known that meat, particularly red meat, is bad for the environment because cows produce a lot of methane (greenhouse gas) and demand enormous amounts of land for grazing (contributing to deforestation). As a noticeably chubby guy, Beck should be able to get behind ( or maybe just the opposite) a push by schools to eliminate meat that is often high in unhealthy saturated fat and cholesterol. Additionally, Baltimore is a poor city meaning the students are more likely to have their health care paid for by the government. Efforts to improve their health would undoubtedly result in less cost.
Win-win.
