Glenn Beck makes Keith's Worst Persons award for attacking unions and then comparing himself to Rosa Parks and Mahatma Gandhi. Apparently he's not too happy with the SEIU and MoveOn.org for going after his advertisers and for teaming up with Brave New Films for putting this together -- Glenn Beck Attacks Progressives...And You?:

Over the past year, conspiracy theorist Glenn Beck has been one of the most vocal opponents of health care reform (and SEIU, for that matter), and progressives have suffered the majority of his irrational, fear-mongering attacks.

But now, a new interactive video put together by SEIU, MoveOn.org and Brave New Films allows you to share Beck's special brand of crazy with your friends and co-workers. To check it out for yourself and make your own Glenn Beck conspiracy, click here: http://beck.cnnbcvideo.com/?rc=seiu.

Runners up for Keith's Worst segment, John "Wingnut" Avlon for comparing Code Pink to the Hutaree Militia and Rush Limbaugh for this item from Media Matters -- Rush declares jobs report "a sham" by pushing myth that "most of the job growth is Census".
