Pity Glenn Beck

Not for his rapidly disintegrating mental capacity, or for his already deteriorating grasp on anything smacking of reality. Oh my, no.

Pity him for the loss of his favorite whipping post.

ACORN, the community organization that went around and registered a lot of low-income and minority voters, has been forced to disband. Part of the reason was the video scandal that erupted when a twentysomething named James O'Keefe posted up a video claiming that he and another person (dressed as a pimp and his prostitute) allegedly got information on how to illegally register to vote.

The video was discredited, and the paper that broke the story has had to apologize.

But the damage was done, and the organization lost funding as several of its largest components went their separate ways.

So Beck will find something else to scribble on his chalkboard and smear onion juice under his eyes about.
