GWAR TO HEADLINE GLENN BECK’S NEXT RALLY

I am, of course, totally kidding. Gwar clearly would not fit with with the Fox News pundit, ’cause what he does is far too fantasy-based for their particular brand of entertainment.

ANYWAY, I mention it ’cause you might remember that last week we posted a video of GWAR killing a Sarah Palin stand-in as part of their most recent stage show (above); needless to say, we were not the first or last media outlet to pick up on the clip, and, as Oderus himself so poetically put it in a statement, “the right-wing tea bag numb-nuts are getting their knickers in a twist.” I’m almost surprised that Oderus hasn’t been invited back to Fox’s Red Eye to discuss the controversy.

Of course, this kind of brouhaha will ultimately amount to very little, but in the meantime, it can provide us with some entertainment. To wit: Rob over at Metal Injection has done a terrific job of collecting some of the more amusing comments left under the video on YouTube. My personal favorite, by some dude named PhillipMcLoins, is after the jump. And in case the non-sensical nature of the criticism is lost on you, I’ve added some emphasis to the contradictory parts of the statement in bold.

“Idiots should stay away from topics they know nothing about. I don’t know who GWAR is or really care for that matter, but I would say that the majority of those in the audience are incapable of correctly pointing out their right or left hand if their lives depended on it. I understood nothing the band way saying in the songs.”

Wow. Nothing but nothing makes your point like telling peeps to shut up about things they don’t know about in one sentence, and then admitting to not knowing anything about the focal point in question in the next. Clearly, this is a man whose opinion deserves attention and careful consideration, not ridicule from some left pinko commie Jew blogger.

Go here to read some more of the gems that Rob found. And try to keep in mind that GWAR hate everyone pretty much equally, so there’s really no reason to get too upset about this.
