Let them spin until they get dizzy
I especially like his teaching on American history. You can't even get this stuff in public school anymore. This comes straight out of the homeschool movement. When he had David Barton on, I knew we would get some good stuff. As far as I'm concerned, Barton is the premier scholar on American history. His collection of original founder documents is phenomenal.
Being scrutinized as much as he is by as many people that hate him, I wonder how long any of us would be able to withstand the scrutiny? He has done well for himself, Fox, and the nation, as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure someday he will have some sort of "messup" with the American people, but I like to look at the total effect he has had. If he repents and is humble about his mistakes, good enough for me. If his fame and fortune changes him into a conceited hack, then he will fall as all others have in the past.
Absolutely and Amen to your post.
Beck and Palin..doing what the lilly livered spineless RINO’s refuse to do. Fighting for the Republic.
Glenn Beck “ben bery bery good to me!”
Yes the Gold guys are making money but I don' think they are sending much of it to Fox. Watch the ads on O'Reilly or Hannity and you will see the difference. Those are the big money ads and they pay per minute. The companies advertising gold only pay per phone call received from their Fox ads.
I watch, I learn, and I better understand: how to prepare, scrutinize, and help others. IMHO, if Beck had made the another choice that day(s) when faced with continuing to drink or not... America would be a very different place. I often wish I could personally thank him for this very thing.
what if Glenn’s planning to run for POTUS, or VPOTUS w/Sarah? wooooweeeee. heads would explode across the fruited plane.
......every subject except one of the **most** important of all: Do we have a usurper occupying the White House?
I will never fully trust him after he insulted the birthers.
Why is Hannity popular? He's an idiot.
FNC would be crazy to shelve Glenn Beck. Yes, Beck’s ratings may be down, but remember, Mr. Beck generated tremendous interest last year, an election year, I might remind you!!! And...he will jump to the top of the heap, once the 2012 election activity begins to perk. Fox News has other developing problems, Shepard Smith & Bill O’Reilly have both jumped the shark and moved fully over to the dark side. O’Reilly cannot put two & two together, he is so drunk with Obama adoration!!! Last night, I watched Charles Krauthammer take BOR on a “kindergarden” course on Syria/Libya, etc. Stupid BOR asks, why is Obama not taking action on Syria, but on Libya. Fool, Obama is one of the enemy. Wake up!!! FNC, keep Beck and dump Smith & O”Reilly or soon you will become MSNBC!!!
“Unlike other prominent conservative talk show hosts, Beck educates his audience about our country’s history and philosophical foundations.”
Eh? Most of them do. This is not to detract from Beck, but the majority of talk show hosts establish the philosophical and historical premises of our nation and its principles. Sometimes the exact take may be debatable, but fact is that they do refer to these bases.
Why is Hannity popular? He’s an idiot.

Many take him at face value, and he is intellectually accessible at all times. Another important distinction is that he is typically optimistic and confident that things will get better soon, which lends weight to your second comment. Some people need the reassurances though.
Hiring a leftist to run “The Blaze” is a serious error in judgement. Would you hire someone who hates you as a bodyguard? She will stab him in the back at the first opportunity.
Just imagine for a minute what our knowledge would be if Glenn Beck was not doing what he is doing.
He is a patriot and thank God for Glenn Beck.
If Beck quit crying and turned his investigative powers toward Mormonism Inc, I would be a full-on Beck fan. Until then, I hedge my support.
