I watched the whole Glenn Beck speech waiting for the red-meat politics to flow, but it never came. Instead what he delivered felt like the world's largest AA meeting. Beck confessed his sins and asked us all to surrender to God and "Divine Providence." He promised to listen with an open heart to his political opponents.

Either he had some Paul on the road to Damascus conversion in the last few weeks or this was a Glenn Beck impersonator at the Lincoln Memorial.

Weird.
