"BECK: That is a common misconception. … Do you know who wanted slaves to be counted as a full person? … Slave owners. … The reason why they wanted that is because of the balance of power. The South could control the numbers in Congress. Their representation would go through the roof. … That’s why, in the Constitution, African-Americans were deemed three-fifths people, because the Founders wanted to end slavery and they knew if the South could count slaves as full individuals you would never get the control to be able to abolish it."

Thank you, Glen Beck, for making it easier to hate you without guilt.

I can't even read beyond the headline without wanting to do extreme violence to Glenn Beck. And his fucking asshole teeth.

And another thing... (!) ...Glenn Beck is a misconception. Some people still believe he's a real person rather than a caricatured role playing exercise conceived solely for the purpose of inflaming to a frenzy the very people that the real person behind the caricature, down within his shallow soul, actually despises.
