As my colleague Andrew Syrios has made abundantly clear, he thinks Glenn Beck is a douchebag. In Andrew’s eyes, Beck comes in second place only to Keith Olbermann for the king of douchbaggery. This puts Andrew in quite a bind. Namely, if he ever runs across opinions from either douche he agrees with, it’s sure tough to use them in his articles now. So goes the cost of exposing the two biggest douches going.This is sure to happen as he has pointed out areas of general agreement with both talking heads: much of Beck’s take on domestic issues, and Olbermann’s take on foreign policy. I think I have found one such video that Andrew could get behind, unfortunately, the man in the video is none other than Glenn Lee Beck. I can see Andrew now, gritting his teeth as he sits through this, swallowing his flagrant disgust of both men. Sometimes when you’re right, you’re just right. The Depression of 1920, and the government’s response, is something more people should be acutely aware of.

To celebrate Keith Olbermann’s victory over Glenn Beck in the battle for the world’s greatest douchebag, I bring you Saturday Night Live’s lampooning of Mr. Countdown. It’s a bit old, but if you haven’t seen it, it’s an absolute must. Ben Affleck actually nails it. And lucky for him, Olbermann will surely never demand Affleck debate him about the veracity of the skit.

While I agree with Glenn Beck on a lot of issues, it’s simply undeniable… he’s a douche bag. He finished second to Keith Olbermann on my list, but he tried really, really hard. Here Jon Stewart ruthlessly makes fun of him. Enjoy:

Glenn Beck vs. Keith Olbermann: Watching either of their shows brings us uncomfortably near the absolute epitome of douchebag, but alas, when push comes to shove, only one can be the victor. Here I will discuss their individual merits and try to determine who can rightfully claim the throne in all of its douche-filled glory… But when the chips are down, we all know that it is either Keith Olbermann or Glenn Beck who will hold the crown of greatest douchebag in the history of the world.

While I kind of like Glenn Beck, he does go off the deep end from time to time. And this is simply Stephen Colbert at his absolute best. So how bad can the economy get? Well, here’s your answer:
