And that is the amazing part. He is totally non PC, saying things on Headline News that you'll not hear on any other station, even Fox. He calls a spade a spade, when it comes to Islamic extremists, and the phrase "nutjob" is a regular part of his vocabulary, LOL
His show is moving up in the ratings, and it must be that reason that Headline News continues to allow him to say what he says. (show me the money!)
Whoa, I just figured out what a WTF is...
I predict that after 2 weeks of Dem control in the House in January that Glenn breaks open the emergency duct tape box on the back wall of the set.
Glenn... he's just your average everyday hate monger.
I love his show!

Thanks...I forget the Rushism.
Beck's "Moron Trivia" is hilarious. It's on on Fridays and I listen to it driving home from work. I've almost driven off the road because I'm laughing so hard. It is amazing to me that there are such stupid people out there and their vote counts as much as mine.
me too........his radio show too!
"...when it comes to Islamic extremism...there's nobody...I'll say it again NOBODY... on network TV that confronts it like Beck."

AMEN sister!!!! You "Sick Freak"!!!!
Have you ever heard him talk about his ADD? Hysterical!
You can say that AGAIN! He's been nailing it for MONTHS now.

He caught a lot of heat for pretty much calling the outcome of the election the day before it happened. Facts are facts and truths are turths. Sometimes we just don't like to hear them.
I tried listening to his radio show a couple of years ago and just couldn't get into it. I thought he talked much and said little.
He's a loud, fast talking Ron Paul--after a fashion.....Good thinker, talker,but like Ron P.-totally unappreciated for the seriousness of his thought.
Glenn does it with a smile on his face. I could be wrong but ..... That approach seems to work better than the in your face whinning and negativity.
I think his self-deprecating humor allows him to get away with stuff no one else could get away with.
His lines like "Call me crazy BUT..." go along way to introducing and dealing with deadly serious subjects and saying things that no one else is saying.
I just got a new car with XM in it and have migrated from Bob and Tom to Glenn Beck 8 - 11. We only get Glenn from 1 to 2 in St. Louis. He offers a very informative show that is also very entertaining. I think that if major word on him gets out he is likely to endear about 75% of Americans. He claims to be a conservative before any party affiliation - R or D. I had my fill of Rush years ago and Sean is wearing me down too. It just seems that no matter what Republican so they will sign off on it. Although I did hear Sean ramble on about the Repubicans spending like liberal democrats.
On the flip side, I see so much hate coming out of the left camp. I noticed that Air America was also on XM - my God how much hate can spew from one persons mouth - I think it was Randi something. But she was full of hate, nothing but hate and wishing phyical violence on the president and his family - I thought that was a crime. Not even remotely funny or interesting or any where near informative. That is where Glenn Beck will steal that demographic - he's funny, informative and entertaining. I personally think he is the real deal - WYSIWYG.
Right, I'm 64 and have listened a bit to Beck, although a little too zany for me, I certainly respect his rallies for the troops, very well attended. You have to get used to listening to him to realize where his core beliefs are. He does draw the 20s something crowd into their 30s.
We Hate Glennn!!!
(Glenn Beck Hate Mail, Glenn Beck Hate MA-il)
I'm not quite in your demographic group, but REALLY LOVE Glenn's show when he plays an audiotape in Arabic with a simultaneous "translation into English". (The Arabic devolves not at all into what the Arab is saying).
(Or "interviews" with Steven Hawking, who lapses into street F$#*$& jargon after about a minute).
I guess I'm addicted. It's been on for at least three years that I know of.
