Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- "We are on the right side of history! We are on the side of individual freedoms and liberties and, dammit, we will reclaim the civil rights moment. We will take that movement -- because we were the people who did it in the first place." -- Glenn Beck, on his nationally syndicated radio program, May 26.

1. You have to understand that Glenn has no moral compass

so anything goes! Freed the slaves? Glenn. Landed on the Moon...FIRST. Glenn. Created the wheel and built the Great Pyramid? Glenn, well not him personally BUT he directed the free people that did. Lit the torch and won 5 gold medals? Glenn. Beat a chessmaster at age 3? Beck did.

Everything good = Glenn
Everything bad = liberals.
