"Leave my family, leave people's families alone...When it was Bill Clinton, you don't go after Chelsea Clinton. You don't talk about the Bush kids. Now, the minute they get into politics, that's a different story. You leave the families alone."

That was Glenn Beck talking with Sarah Palin, talking about how a reporter was getting to close to the Palin family at their Alaska home. Beck stood up for Palin, and said that a pundit should leave the families out of it.

Shortly after, Beck went after President Obama's daughter, 11 year old Malia Obama.

On Beck's radio show, not only did he insult Malia, but he mocked her too.

Here are some things Beck said on his radio show. A full transcription can be found on the Huffington Post.

BECK: (imitating Malia) Daddy? Daddy? Daddy, did you plug the hole yet? Daddy?

BECK: (imitating Malia) Why do you hate black people so much?

BECK: "Did you plug the hole yet, daddy?" Is that's their -- that's the level of their education, that they're coming to -- they're coming to daddy and saying 'Daddy, did you plug the hole yet?' " Plug the hole!

BECK (imitating Malia) Why, why, why, why, do you still let the polar bears die? Daddy, why do you still let Sarah Palin destroy the environment? Why are -- Daddy, why don't you just put her in some sort of a camp?

Beck has since apologized for his remarks about Malia. To Beck's credit, he did own up to his hypocrisy, saying "the children of public figures should be left on the sidelines. It was a stupid mistake and I apologize--and as a dad I should have known better.
