Thread: Is Glenn Beck the choosen one?

I'm watching his interview with Chris Wallace right now

Some very interesting questions going on here.



Beck , love him or hate him, He appears to have mega clout

He is not on the right or the left ,
What exactly is he?

How does a commentator, comedian , show host , ex alcoholic , nobody a couple years ago rise so fast?


He stated he has no political aspirations

What exactly are we seeing here?

And how in the heck did he manage to draw a crowd of that size ?

btw, I just read Sharpton managed to draw a "few" hundred

Glenn Beck is a clown, put on prime time TV to amuse the masses. He's nothing more than an actor, doing what he is told to do...going by a script to keep your attention focused on him and nothing else. There have been better people who have pointed out the short comings of this current administration and previous ones on a much smaller venue than Beck has and those others have paid the price for doing it....with the implosion of their careers, defamation of their character by the mainstream media, incarceration on trumped up charges and even death by mysterious circumstances and by strange accidents.

If Beck has been louder than all the rest and is allowed to stay loud, on the air and in your face with no apparent real backlash from this current admin, doesn't that raise a red flag on who he's really working for?

"Beware of false prophets..."

Did he say anything about our cause at this rally?

For starters, Glenn and Tania paid for the rental of the Kennedy Center out of their own pocket and admission was free.

This country and the MSM has no idea of the size of this mans audience, and the number of affiliated partners and endeavors he is financially supporting. Glenn Beck represents what used to be called the 'silent majority' in this country which are just not so silent anymore. His passion and message are not hollow blabs. This man, unlike most, is willing to put his own money where his mouth is. How refreshing to watch a human being who is honest, has no pretense, and isn't shoving an agenda down our throats, other than begging us to get back to the principles this country used to cherish.

By the way, I am not a Mormon, quite the contrary.

What I find great about Beck is that I always learn something. I may agree with him, disagree with him or find what he says totally outrageous, but I always learn something or am inspired to read and research.

Irrespective of your feelings on Beck, we could be doing a hell of a lot worse than Glenn Beck right now. I'm willing to give anyone a chance who desires to promote the principles for which this country was founded upon, since they seem to be in such short supply at the moment. If Glenn Beck makes some money( I know, mega money) while he's doing it, then so be it.

He can be a little wacky and silly at times, but all in all, I give the guy the credit he deserves. Is it all show? I don't really know, but as long as Glenn stays consistent in his message, I really don't care.

BTW...I do not watch him on Fox because I have given up on all MSM cable outlets. I do listen to him on 870 here in CA most morning on my way to work.

I take it you have a problem with his message?

he is not a clown and he is not in prime time..
the things he does is to make people think. make people read, do their own research on the stuff and form their own opinion instead of listening to the media and hope that the media would not lie about anything. and we all know that wont happen.... right (sarcasm)

All I'm saying is that it would be wise to keep your antennae up and not follow this guy over a cliff if you can help it. Yes .... he talks a good game and he's good at rallying the people, but then again...so was Lou Dobbs.

I still can't understand how guys like Beck and Alex Jones can say the things they say about the powers that be and still remain on the air, above ground and still breathing with their reputations intact, while others haven't fared as well and weren't as loud with the "truth" as these guys are. Like the old saying goes, "If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is."

I remember what Beck was like when he was on CNN and he wasn't that impressive on matters of illegal immigration. FOX needed a counterpart to CNN's Lou Dobbs and Beck was their man. Beck's persona did a 180 degree turn around once he got into the FOX spotlights. It had to, to deliver what the FOX execs wanted, not because he particularly felt strongly one way or another...money talks and some people will sing out loud in public like Tiny Tim if the price is right.
