The life story of George Washington is "a miracle." After all, Glenn Beck asks, what other mortal "can lay claim to a legacy that has allowed so many to experience freedom around the world?"

If you like Glenn Beck, you probably hate women. Sounds outlandish, I know, but if you apply Mr. Beck's own twisted logic, it follows. Glenn Beck recently accused millions of Tea Partyers of racism. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has also accused Tea Partyers of racism. Ergo, if you like him but not her, you hate women.

Glenn Beck said on Monday that he could support a third-party challenge if Republicans nominate former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to run for president against Barack Obama. "If I had a gun to my head, I'll vote for Mitt Romney," he explained. "If it's Newt Gingrich, and there's a third party, and it's Ron Paul. ... I might consider Ron Paul as a third party." This position is nuts. Obviously Mr. Beck needs to generate attention for his new GBTV venture since giving up his popular Fox News platform, but promoting ideas that would lead to an Obama second term is reckless and bad for America.

As a veteran comedian, Jane Lynch knows what it feels like to have a joke fail spectacularly. She also knows how often jokes can offend people.

Gentleman crooner and conservative stalwart Pat Boone is in the nation's capital on Wednesday to be feted by no less than 40 members of Congress for his steadfast support of the 60 Plus Association, a non-partisan seniors advocacy group with a free enterprise, less government, lower taxes approach to myriad issues.

Wise businessman and presidential hopeful Herman Cain is not taking much time to bask in his Florida straw poll victory.

Be careful, if you dare to criticize Citizen Obama, comrade. The Web is watching. This week, President Obama's re-election team launched "Attack Watch," an interactive website that allows the president's registered supporters to report instances of "attacks" against the commander in chief or his record. Citizen snitches are asked to detail who the attacker is, the type of attack, and whether the offending words were actually heard or passed along as second-hand rumors. The "Attack Files" section provides summary responses to some common smears. For example, the site explains that, "President Obama is a friend to Israel, despite unfounded claims to the contrary." For critics, it represents a handy list of the issues that most infuriate the White House.

Yes, there is a Kosher Tea Party.

Monday afternoon, just two months after the Fox News Channel's "Glenn Beck Program" went off the air, its controversial host began streaming online content from his new venture, GBTV.
How does Mr. Beck explain the former speaker's surge in the polls, one that includes support from millions of Tea Partyers?
It is within this framework that Mr. Beck has declared he cannot support Newt Gingrich, presumably even in a general election against Barack Obama.
