Glenn Beck, Grand Wizard of Goofy, not only has moved to Texas, he’s opening a commune here.

Yeah, that worked out real well for David Koresh.

Beck wants to use Ayn Rand’s fictional utopian “Galt’s Gulch.”   The key word here is fictional.  I give it a week before it becomes Lord of the Flies.

[Beck is] unveiling grandiose plans to create an entirely self-sustaining community called Independence Park that will provide its own food and energy, produce television and film content, host research and development, serve as a marketplace for products and ideas, while also housing a theme park and serving as a residential community.

At the center — in the middle of the lake that is itself larger than all of Disney Land – Beck (with the help of David Barton) will create a massive “national archive”/learning center where people can send their children to be “deprogrammed” and elected officials can come to learn “the truth.”

Dude, that’s Jamestown.

My best hope is that they secede and can’t vote in America.  On the upside, it will be nice to have people in robes selling flowers at airports again.

And, hell, if it does go Lord of the Flies and they all kill each other, that does kinda prove our national selection theory.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
