The Unprecedented, Powerful Coalition Three Major Conservative Personalities Are Building Likely Has the Establishment Terrified
Two heads are better than one, as the old saying goes. That surely means that three heads are even better.
If there’s any truth to that saying, the establishment in Washington and progressives everywhere are likely none too pleased to hear that conservative personalities Glenn Beck, Mark Levin and Sean Hannity are on the same page and joining forces to help the country get back on what they feel is the right path.
After previously allowing themselves to be caught up in a “stupid” competitive feud in talk radio, Beck revealed on his radio show Thursday that he has spoken with Levin and Hannity and they are all ready to start to “move together.”
“I am grateful to this audience. I am grateful for you. There was a stupid feud, and the three of us, Sean, and Mark and I, have talked about it,” Beck explained. “And we know where it came from, and we know who was feeding us lies about each other. And this individual just expected that if they fed us enough lies about each other, we would never talk to each other. And that way he would be able to divide us and keep the Tea Party movement at bay and control it as much as he could or destroy it. And we were foolish.”
Beck also read a letter he wrote to Levin on his radio show Thursday:

Well said. Just as the Republican party is infiltrated with provocateurs there are some here that provide the same service under the guise of being the perfect conservative. Here is a positive step to unite and as you’ve read, some here try to keep the division going.
“It seems to be less so lately, IMHO, for reasons unknown.”
I’ve noticed as well. I think that has been because FR has been slowing down and is less of a timely resource. I now regularly post articles from say drudge that some other FReeper in the past would have been on top of like white on rice.
FR just isn’t as popular as it once was. Conservatism in general has been taking it’s hits to be sure. A lot of who I would call “A-list” posters have moved on. And let’s be frank: too many zots of those who strayed from the ever changing orthodoxy have left FR poorer as a result.
I like Glenn. He has his own style like Rush, Mark, etc. While I don’t agree with him all the time, his insight on the culture and how to fix it is nice to hear instead of all politics all the time. Rush I like for political analysis and his humor.
“I think FR has undergone something like a nervous breakdown since Obama’s reelection.”
It started before that. I think the turning point was the “moth thread” that ensnared supporters of rudy guiuliani. We lost a lot of FReepers over that. Not so much due to the relative handful that were zotted, but due to the disgust of other FReepers at what they felt was a heavy handed response.
The MOST informed person in Washington, D.C..
I think things are going to get worse because the debt and spending in Washington are unsustainable.
We are the beginning of where places like Italy, Spain and Greece have gone in recent years. The major parties have begun a process of raising taxes and cutting spending as in the Murray-Ryan budget deal in December.
They created new taxes called “fees” for airline flights.
They cut military pensions and extended unemployment.
Now the new food stamp bill has cuts in it.
The Right and the Left are going to get increasingly upset by this new pattern of “bipartisan” governance.
People will be wondering whether third parties of the Right and Left should be formed.
“The other side all reads from the same hymnal, so it’s about time we present a united front if we ever hope save this nation.”

DNME, you are correct. As soon as I saw this post, I knew the comments I’d find, and sure enough:
Here’s a bunch of Umpires of Conservatism calling out the sins of those who aren’t REAL CONSERVATIVES.
Those of you who talk these good men down- come on, be honest, what’s it REALLY ABOUT? Arrogance? I think so. You feel that ONLY YOUR FORM OF BELIEF IS CORRECT, AND THE OTHERS NEED TO Shut The Fu** Up.
Gee, sounds just like a political group we all know...
I’d be more impressed if conservatives dragged their fat, lazy asses out and showed up in numbers at city council and county board meetings.
If you follow Free Republic, you must know that personal principle trumps all else.
There is no conservative unity and I doubt if the there can actually develop it. Single mindedness prohibits unity
I would say that Beck, Levin and Hannity are the axis of right wing Kumbaya.
Even though I don’t personally care for Mark Levin of the three he is the most conservative and I would say the most thoughtful. His main problem is that once he gets an idea into his head he can never admit it might be wrong. And then he has to snark anybody who disagrees.
Hannity and Beck are entertainers. They are both still in love with Mitt. They will fall for whichever moderate runs in 2016. My guess is once Jeb Bush and Crispy fall away they will zero in on Scott Walker. They will never push Ted Cruz or Rand Paul.
