Wehner lists off many examples that show Beck’s bizarre behavior, including calling Obama a racist, his interest in conspiracy theories, tearing up, screaming at callers, etc. He calls Beck a “roiling mix of fear, resentment, and anger—the antithesis of Ronald Reagan.”

But the role Glenn Beck is playing is harmful in its totality. My hunch is that he is a comet blazing across the media sky right now—and will soon flame out. Whether he does or not, he isn’t the face or disposition that should represent modern-day conservatism. At a time when we should aim for intellectual depth, for tough-minded and reasoned arguments, for good cheer and calm purpose, rather than erratic behavior, he is not the kind of figure conservatives should embrace or cheer on.
