To add critique would be too excessive for something which speaks so clearly for itself.
But really, how is that not satire? “You don’t have to be ugly in heaven.” HA. All that false earnestness = hilarious!
On the February 14 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, while discussing a Health magazine article about “Surprising reasons you’re not having sex,” Glenn Beck raised the subject of “ugly people” and said, “[I]f you’re a guy, you can get passed it. I don’t think you can as an ugly woman.” Beck, who also hosts his own show on CNN Headline News, continued: “[Y]ou’ve got a double cross, because if you’re an ugly woman, you’re probably a progressive as well.” He later added: “If you believed in God, you’d know that there’s going to be another chance for you. You don’t have to be ugly in heaven. You’re going to be your perfect self, and there will be another perfect somebody waiting for you on the other side.”
Misogyny is a running theme for Glenn Beck, who has called Cindy Sheehan–bereaved mother of a soldier killed in Iraq, turned antiwar activist–a “pretty big prostitute” and a “tragedy pimp.” Which one is it? Is she whoring or pimping?
And who has said of Hillary Clinton: “There’s something about her voice that just drives me – it’s not what she says, it’s how she says it. She is like the stereotypical bitch–-excuse the expression.”

I think Glenn has a point. The uglier, huskier, the more progressive they are.
