Glenn Beck Loses Spelling Bee

By Ed Brayton

When I first saw references to Glenn Beck trying to spell out the word "oligarchy" and leaving out the 'C' I figured that he just hadn't noticed that he'd left it out. I read that he was trying to form that word with the first letters of a bunch of other words and didn't have a word that began with C and I figured, well, he just didn't notice it. But then I watched the video. And he actually spells out the word himself using those first letters and still thinks he's spelled it correctly. It's like he has become a self-parody. Video below the fold.
