If you're not watching Glenn, if you're only getting him through the George Soros funded marxism filter (Media Matters), you're missing one of the best shows on TV. It's part theater (comedy, mime, silliness), part classroom (lots of blackboard and visuals) part spirituality (heavy redemption theme) and part politics and patriotism (libertarian). The left has no response except to ridicule, call him names, and threaten his sponsors. Because most of his sources and guests are very solid--Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Joe Lieberman, Judge Napolitano (the guy with a hairline down to his eye brows) and he gives them time to talk without interruption, you can actually understand different perspectives.
Recently, he's been going after Robert Creamer, the convicted felon husband of Illinois Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky. Because Glenn made light of being unable to pronounce her Slavic name, they got all over him and tried to inflame the Chicago Polish community. After that made the rounds of all the lefty bloggers they found out she was of Russian heritage, not Polish. And really, the way names get transliterated and adjusted by the census takers and Ellis Island gate people, who knows how Poles would pronounce it if she were Polish. (I used to work with an Illinois woman 40 years ago who had a Polish surname with a -wiec ending (vee-etts or vee-etch) which she pronounced -wick because she was 3rd generation American and didn't even have relatives who spoke Polish. But Beck was supposed to know. That's the level the left has fallen to--judging not his information, but his pronunciation of a Russian name they thought was Polish. It's not like the Left ever mispronounced BUSH as SHRUB or anything.
I've read through the Media Matters columns (many) on Glenn's Creamer story (from Breitbart TV) and they can't dispute anything Glenn says about Creamer, only that the facts are "smears." I believe Creamer has called him a McCarthyite--problem is McCarthy was an elected official going after the media and celebrities, so what to make of that? A bit like Creamer, one person removed from Congress, and author of the President's health care plan, going after someone in the media and or entertainment field to shut him up, isn't it? I don't know what you have to do in Illinois to get convicted as a felon, but it must be tough. He and his wife were also big Blagojevich supporters--or am I thinking of another Illinois politician?
Did you hear the lefties are now threatening Joe Lieberman's wife because he won't walk the plank for Obamacare? How low can they go?

It worked. He caved.
So scary that people like you exist in the world. Anyone who thinks Beck and his sources are credible has a serious mental and/or intellectual defect.
Glenn Beck is an idiot, and he is counting on idiots like you not to recognize it. It seems he has been rewarded.
I hope some day they discover that people like you and I are from two different species, because it saddens me to think that I am biologically related to such primitive life forms as people like you, Beck, and Tea Baggers.
I'm leaving your insulting comments up just so readers see what sort of hate and prejudice against Christians and conservatives exist out there. We're "different species," idiots, Tea Baggers (a sexual pejorative), primitive life forms, and mentally defective. My goodness, you're such a prize of tolerance and righteousness (self that is). Did you get that way genetically, mainlined hate and misinformation from the womb, or are you a product of your environment and evolution?
I challenge you to watch Beck, the full hour, for 30 days, without the Soros filters. Then your "freedom" back--but I doubt that you'll want it.
Imagine all those idiots listening to the words of the founding father night after night. What a shame.
