Ted Kennedy catches a lot of crap just being himself. Ted-Kennedy-As-Orator is probably Jon Stewart's second-favorite impression after the George W. Bush chuckle. Throw in the alleged drinky-drinky, and Ted Kennedy makes for quite the media spectacle. Since he announced his endorsement of presidential aspirant Barack Obama, the Peanut Gallery has renewed its love affair with poking fun at Teddy. But Glenn Beck at Headline News hurt our brains when he started imagining our Senator in the buff.
Here's the transcript of the Glenn Beck's talk with Republican strategist Amy Holmes from Media Matters:
BECK: You ever -- if you're trying just to get through something, you ever just pictured Ted Kennedy naked?HOLMES: Is that when you're supposed to be talking to a crowd? I thought you were supposed to picture yourself naked. I don't know.
BECK: I don't know when, but sometimes, you know, that picture with him with his shirt off just kind of pops into your head. And you're like, "OK, I won't have children now."
Is Beck implying that he thinks of Ted Kennedy in the same way that people are supposed to think of baseball while frolicking in the sack? And does Glenn Beck's wife know about this? To Holmes' credit, she looks grossed out and appears to be holding in a gag reflex. Head over to Media Matters if you want to see Beck's lame weight jokes about Ted Kennedy.
