Well, he might not be the best actor.
I was at the gym earlier tonight, and the treadmill I was on happened to be in front of Headline Prime...and at 7 pm, Glenn Beck is on. After a bunch of garbage about the new minimum wage bill and Nancy Pelosi (I wasn't paying attention), I recognized the Mr. Clean-esque demeanor of Richard "Mack" Machowicz, host of FutureWeapons on the Discovery Channel, promoting the new season of his show.
Glenn Beck was asking typical talk-show host questions, such as "So America really has guns that can shoot around corners?!?!?!" (I assume he was referring to the CORNERSHOT system, and various imitations of)
And then Beck goes on to bash these so-called "Smart Weapons" by saying that if an innocent happens to be injured or killed using these technologically enhanced "fool-proof" weapons, then it will look like it occured on purpose. He actually said firebombing entire cities was better, because then people expect collateral damage.
Then, Mack proceeds to totally rebuke any point Beck was trying to make by talking, rather eloquently and intelligently, about how all these advancements in technology make our weapons more efficient and surgically precise, thereby reducing the chances that an innocent might be inadvertadly harmed.
Now I don't know how the actualy argument sounded (The TV was on Closed-caption, and I had my mp3 player on) but it read fantastic.
I formally retract anything bad I might have said about Mack. He's OK by me!
