I am Done With Glenn Beck! He is now boring, idiotic, and not conservative.
redstate.com ^

Posted on 08/23/2010 8:52:45 AM PDT by big black dog

When Glenn Beck came to Fox News his show was brilliant and a can’t miss program that was interesting, creative, and a real threat to Obama and the Liberals. During the past year and half is show has steadily declined since it began and has now become completely unwatchable. For his first 6 months I never missed a episode and now I could care less about Beck. There are many reasons I lost interest in Beck and no longer watch and listen to him.

Glenn Beck is not a conservative and both his TV show and radio show have become annoying. Beck has devolved into nothing more than a fickle Paultard that is both condesending and patronizing. Glenn Beck is not a conservative and not really for the advancement of conservatism. Beck has bought into the Ron Paul agenda hook line and sinker. My take is that Beck has run out of stuff to stay and is now boring and idiotic. He is not advancing the Conservative agenda and is pretty much promoting the Paultard agenda that seeks to undermine real a real conservative agenda. Plus his annoying theme song on the radio is awful and really annoying just like Beck.

Glenn Beck is a huckster and with nothing of value to say that has not already been said by smarter people that are not fickle Paultards. Beck puts out a crappy book every few months and has his one man shows and comedy tour and even goes on tour with Ted Baxter, himself O’Reilly. Glenn Beck has lost and I contend does not really believe in anything. His CPAC routine was terrible and it may have been the point where I began to see him for what he is and stated liking him less.

The Ron Paul/ Judge Napolitano brand of libertarianism is not conservative and in fact undermines Conservatives. Ron Paul at the 2008 Republican Debate seemed like a darn infiltrator and Beck now seems like a darn fool and a boring one at that. Libertarians are under-miners and not on the side conservatives. Beck is a flake that is for sure and both he and his shows are tiresome. Glenn Beck seems to lack the bite and credibility he once had. The Friday show is a complete waste . I am tired of history lessons from a guy that did not even go to college and uses a chalkboard in 2010. The act is idiotic, boring,and repetitive. I think we can safely say Glenn Beck is no Rush Limbaugh, he is not even Sean Hannity.

For someone that quotes Thomas Jefferson quite a bit, I was suprised GB came out in favor of a 2% national VAT tax.

I have a five minute car commute every morning now (I used to walk to work). It is the first time I’ve listened to Beck since I discovered some of his Youtube videos which I thought were great.

On the radio he seems to mostly just fill time. Maybe my exposure to the “gems” on youtube caused me to expect more.

I listened for a week or two but now I just listen to a song or two on my way to work.

I like Beck, but his show on the radio has gotten awful. The religious nonsense is utterly misplaced for political radio.

He should stick with focusing on the admn and hard news stories, not the stuff as of late.

We are going to need all the help we can get. Don’t divide, unify.

What are you, 10? This reads like it was written by a ignorant, angry child.

Don't forget to mention his resemblance to the Pillsbury Doughboy

Beck is a little too apocalyptic for my tastes ... and he steadfastly refuses to acknowledge any reason for optimism. He’s also more activist than radio/tv host at this point — so spends a lot of time promoting his activism (and working people into a frenzy so they’ll participate).

Personally, I’m all for it, ONLY if, at the same time, the federal income tax is completely abolished. The “addition” of a vat would just send me more underground with my purchases.

None of this is backed up. Its just a baseless rant.

The one thing that has made me nervous about him since day one is that he is Mormon.

I quit watching him because he reminded of a cross between a preacher and a teacher and neither are very entertaining.

I have learned more about history watching his show than I ever did in my pubic school.

Mayne you wouldn’t feel like this if your moniker was “BigWhiteDog.”

That’s a joke, fella.

Islam has declared war on the West and is winning to the extent that even our president has sided with the enemy...and all you can do is whine about our Beck?

STFU!

oh...I get it now. After a second read I’m guessing this was written by one of those PROGRESSIVE Republicans. Sounds like Glenn touched a nerve!

I´m inclined to agree. He gets a bit long in the tooth.

Beck never claimed to be a conservative, but he does serve a place in the fight against the left.

His spot on unveiling of the whole progressive movement including it’s awful history has awaken many people in this nation.

We will never ALL agree on every single issue in this nation and Beck has been quite clear.

He is what he is.
