Glenn Beck backs out as San Antonio Tea Party keynote speaker

Via BuzzFlash, we find out that Crying Glenn realizes that he is a mosquito-like distraction after all:

Radio and television host Glenn Beck has decided to back out as keynote speaker for the San Antonio Tea Party. He announced on his radio program on Thursday morning that he is concerned his presence may distract from the message the organizers are trying to send.

If there's one thing Crying Glenn wouldn't want to do, it's distract a crowd that's into teabagging.

Beck will host his TV show live from Alamo Plaza from 4 to 5 p.m.. He will also be hosting a fund-raising luncheon at the Menger Hotel. Attendees will have a chance to meet with him, have their picture taken and receive an autographed copy of his book, “An Inconvenient Book.” [...] All funds raised through this event will go to cover the costs of putting on the event, which the San Antonio Tea Party planners estimate to be well over $60,000.

Ted Nugent will be attending the Tea Party and performing the National Anthem.

An inconvenient nutcase.
