Glenn Beck The Televangelist Con Man

Posted: Apr 24, 2010

Glenn Beck has really gone off the deep end. He is taking advantage of the most gullible members of society and laughing all the way to the bank!

You are free to join the most gullible, ignorant members of society if you wish. However, I will be sticking with our brilliant Ivy League President for the long haul while he brings the hope and change he promised to all of those who voted for him and leads our country out of the depths to which we sunk at the end of the last President's term of office.

I for one agree with you. Warning though, you - will find A LOT of folks

here who are definitely part of group of gullible, ignorant members of society and they LOVE to just dump drive-by variety of insults. No discussion, no proof, just 4 and 5 word insults.

Anyway, you said it better that I could. I stand behind President Obama.

Oh, barf. What has he done? Sink us FURTHER - You are the gullible.nm

It's BLOGGERS like that guy that spews the hate - Backwards Typist

[ In Reply To ..]
you read. Blogs like that need to be ignored, just like others I've seen. It's not news and I don't know why some of you insist on cluttering up the Political board with crap like this.

Just by reading the blog, you can tell this guy hates Glenn with a passion. He's just jumping on the bandwagon hoping his star will rise. Sooner or later, it will get old, especially when he finds out it doesn't help him one bit to try to tear down another commentator.

No hate involved, he describes Beck perfectly. - Charo

I guess anything you don't like is considered hateful! Glenn Beck is playing his viewers and laughing at them behind their backs. Don't you remember the Vicks VapoRub clips. He was laughing hysterically while his assistants put more Vicks VapoRub on his face to create fake tears to fool the fools who watch him.

You can tell by reading this article that he hates GB with a passion. - Backwards Typist

and no, I don't remember the Vicks VapoRub clip, as I don't watch him that often, if at all, anymore.

I've got better things to do than to watch commentators or read blogs that stretch the truth, but when I need a good laugh or have time on my hands, I'll check some of them out.

I'd rather watch programs such last night's "America, The History of Us." Very good program. If you didn't get a chance to see it, you missed a pretty good idea of how America became 'us' and why we still hold those ideas today.

Good program. Amazing how "radical" our - sm

forefathers were. They would be hated and denounced by the wingnuts today . . .

It is truly amazing to me that anyone takes this man seriously as a "news person," because - justagirl

[ In Reply To ..]
clearly he is not and he even admits that he is not, that he is simply an entertainer. By the same token I am amazed at liberals and liberal media outlets who seem to be so threatened by this entertainer, who, again, is admittedly not a "news person," as well as anyone else, republicans, independents, etc., who follow him and believe every word that he says. WAKE UP!! Again, he is a self-admitted entertainer who loves the theatrics and the drama, clearly, but who, bottom line, is in this business for the money. Yes, I have watched him on occasion, when I could stomach him, and he does make some very good points and does provide loads of information. However, with the information that he provides his audience then needs to become responsible, intelligent adults and do their own research just to weed out the truth from his opinion. I believe that this needs to be done with ANY and ALL cable show "reporters," no matter what channel or who they are. These people "report" the news, mingled with their opinions and beliefs and hope that their followers fall for every word, which sadly most do.

We live in the age of having a wonderful research tool right at our fingertips in the internet and more people should learn how to use it and rely on it for the facts rather than a biased cable show television personality. By this I mean Glenn Beck, Rachel Maddow, Bill O'Reilly, Keith Olbermann, etc.

All stated in my humble opinion. :)

Beck has lost a million viewers since passage of HCR - and ratings still dropping

[ In Reply To ..]
Folks are saying they can't keep the "passion" going and going and going especially when it is ineffectual and it feels phony. They are saying it's too tiresome to keep whipping the same few dead horses over and over and over.

Yes, he lost viewers AND sponsors. (nm) - Nikki

Wrong - his ratings are skyrocketing - sorry for you

[ In Reply To ..]
Personally I don't care for Beck and I don't watch him. He is a prop. He's too fidgity and silly and I just don't care for him.

However, the facts are facts...his ratings are soaring. You can say his ratings are dropping all you want. Maybe your trying to convince yourself. But I can say I'm the Queen of England, doesn't make it true though.

You have to be a "news person" to question your - government or have sense? wow

I must have missed Glenn Beck's turning six months ago, but saw this current interview on CNN this weekend. The second part is next weekend. I'm curious as to whether anyone has any thoughts on his realizations. Genuine or fiction? Is he the beginning of realization of the Fox News indoctrination and damage? He says he regrets the time he spent on Fox and basically apologizes for the damage done. (I claim this as a realization for Fox because I feel he was a p ...

Beck said the birthers' (often-debunked) claim about Obama's citizenship was the "dumbest thing I’ve ever heard." The birthers are only "discrediting themselves" with their idiotic statements, Beck added. http://voices.kansascity.com/node/7116 Rick Sanchez is reporting on a new investigation the Secret Service is launching of 6 or so of the birthers more outspoken proponents. That should prove to be an interesting story once it starts to unfold. ...

As you all know, he doesn't hide the fact that he is an alcoholic like some do, and speaks his mind, which i why a lot of people don't like him.

What he doesn't mention are the REAL reasons Bush/Cheney went to war with Iraq, but whatever.

Liberals, you were right, we shouldn’t have.” ...

Beck had a lot more to say than just making a mistake about Iraq. It was quite powerful and actually chilling at times with regard to his perceptions and predictions, some of which have come to pass. At the end of his segment, he urged everyone to come together as Americans for the good of the country. ...

Yet another controversy appears to be brewing around Fox News host Glenn Beck. Some are accusing him of a blatant conflict of interest concerning his frequent on-air promotion of an investment sold by one of his main advertisers: Gold. For some time Beck critics have cried foul over his relationship with Goldline International, a precious metals vendor that features the TV and radio host's endorsement prominently on their website. Critics charge that Beck is guilty of mis ...

During his much-ballyhooed "Restoring Honor" rally on Saturday, Glenn Beck told a whopper involving the founding father who was supposedly unable to tell a lie: George Washington.Speechifying at the foot of the Lincoln Memorial, the controversial Fox News host highlighted the legacy of the nation's first president to drive home his claim that encouraging honesty and integrity was a main aim of the event. Beck even told attendees that "the next George Washington" was "in this crowd. He may b ...

Beck said he will be joined by Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah), Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), and a number of pastors and rabbis."

morning? I was off today so tuned in in the car. He and Pat Gray, I think it was, were doing a parody of comments Obama "could have made" on E.T. They even had the E.T. music to go with it. It was hysterical.! When you really stop and think about it, it is kind of funny for him to choose E.T. to make his case rather than a liberal-biased station (it would have been so easy to choose one). Instead, he chose a little rinky-dink show to tout his littl ...

Beck is going to end up hanging himself.On his daily radio and television shows last week, Fox News personality Glenn Beck set out to convince his audience that "social justice," the term many Christian churches use to describe their efforts to address poverty and human rights, is a "code word" for communism and Nazism. Beck urged Christians to discuss the term with their priests and to leave their churches if leaders would not reconsider their emphasis on social justice."I'm begging you, y ...
