In January of 2008, just 16 months ago, Glenn Back underwent "ass surgery" to remove a hemorrhoid. The Daily Show dug up video of Beck detailing how horrific his personal experience was, video that contradicts everything he's been saying lately.

This should serve as yet another bright, shining example of how much of an utter fraud Beck is. You gotta give the guy some credit though — he's a charlatan's charlatan, a near-perfect modern television bullshit artist who fully understands how the slightest glance, vocal inflection, or codeword can plant a seed deep down inside of a feeble mind and germinate.

But still, it's hard not to watch this clip and come away feeling that he's an even bigger piece of shit than you probably thought he was previously, because it's just so goddamn obvious that the man will do or say anything to dig his hook even deeper into the sad dolts who tune into to his show each day seeking guidance.
