Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin introduced Glenn Beck at an event in her home state Saturday night, telling several thousand roaring fans at the Dena'ina Civic and Convention Center that the conservative commentator has inspired millions. Palin, the 2008 vice presidential nominee and a potential 2012 presidential candidate, told Beck that he represents why so many citizens never have to apologize for being American. Palin and Beck, a popular Fox News Channel personality, took turns recalling what they were doing when they heard of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Palin, who was mayor of Wasilla at the time, said she got...

Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are appearing together in Anchorage, Alaska Saturday to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, and tickets don't come cheap: The Ticketmaster page for the event lists regular adult tickets at between $73 and $130 and tickets plus a "meet & greet" at $225. The event will also have a "dry section" where no alcohol is served and a "wet section" for those who want to drink. Palin heralded the event on her Facebook page last night with a message beginning, "Glenn's coming to the Last Frontier!" "I hope my fellow Alaskans (and...

I’ve entitled this column “Burning Bridges over Beck” only because the original title, “How to Lose Conservative Friends and Alienate Readers While Drawing a Line in the Sand on the Banks of the Rubicon” was, as the Mrs. put it, “a bit verbose.”          Let’s get down to it. Glenn Beck is an influential figure; no one can deny that he has made considerable advances for the conservative movement. I have never watched his television program, so most of what I know about him I have learned by watching the response to him. That response is very impressive.The rally in Washington this...

“i beseech you, in the bowels of christ, think it possible you may be mistaken” … oliver cromwell,” uttering these famous words in 1650 urging the general assembly of the church of scotland to reconsider their alliance with charles ii, who sought thereby to reestablish his line upon the thrown of england. and, so i say to glenn beck. in the matter of your labeling geert wilders a contemporary european fascist, I beseech you, pray consider that you are wrong. please, glenn, give it another think through. your assessment of wilders stands as an impediment to the full & complete...

I really like Glenn Beck. Though I have never met him in person, I have often watched his television programs and thought it would be so nice to have that kind of a guy as a friend. I imagine that he is far too busy and way too inaccessible for that to become a reality, but I do genuinely like the man. He is insightful, articulate, funny, and seems to want some great things for his family and our nation. I do think that sometimes he has one or two conspiracy theories that may not be fully justified - we...

WASHINGTON - Fox News host Glenn Beck wore a bulletproof vest at his weekend rally, where he claimed "many, many miracles" had occurred - including a flyover of geese."I'm absolutely wearing a bulletproof vest," Beck said he told Alveda King, the niece of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., before the "Restore Honor" event at the Lincoln Memorial. He and other speakers risked their lives but "she decided not to wear it," Beck said of Alveda King, and now "she is a marked woman for standing on that step with me."

A Message From Glenn: "If you are like me, watching the news or reading the paper can be an exercise in exasperation. It’s so hard to find a place that helps me make sense of the world I see. Too many important stories are overlooked. And too many times we see mainstream media outlets distorting facts to fit rigid agendas. Not that you’ve ever heard me complain about the media before. Okay, maybe once or twice. But there comes a time when you have to stop complaining and do something. And so we decided to hire some actual journalists to...

Washington (CNN) -- Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck opened his controversial "Restoring Honor" rally Saturday by urging Americans to "turn back to God" and return the nation to the values on which it was founded. "Something beyond imagination is happening," he told the large crowds gathered at the National Mall in Washington. "America today begins to turn back to God. For too long, this country has wandered in darkness."

NAACP President Benjamin Jealous said that his organization and 200 other groups are planning a rally on Oct. 2 in the District "to pull America back together and put America back to work. . . . On that day we will reflect Dr. King's true legacy and his determination to eliminate poverty, racism and hatred in all forms." Other organizations are staging "counter-events" on the Mall Aug. 28, including a grass-roots network of artists, community organizers and social activists calling themselves "Celebrate the Dream," which last Thursday secured a permit from the National Park Service to unveil an original sculpture...

Glenn Beck made the best speech I've heard since Reagan or Patton this past Friday. It's something I think every Freeper should see. His impassioned call for REVOLUTION will make the hair stand on the back on your neck. Here it is. In three separate youtube videos. VIDEO 1 VIDEO 2 VIDEO 3 VIDEO 1 IS THE INTRO TO THE SHOW. BASICALLY WHERE HE TALKS ABOUT HIS RECENT COMMENTS ABOUT SOME CELEBRITIES. HE APOLOGIZES FOR HIS RECENT COMMENTS ABOUT MANY CELEBRITIES INCLUDING JAMES CARVILLE AND MADONNA. Then he says.. And finally.. I did make one last joke about our government...

A highly esteemed friend emailed me a link to a column by Dan Riehl in which he expressed concerns about the potential damage Glenn Beck could inflict on the conservative movement. I can’t help but think there may be some professional jealousy behind the column. As a writer, I’m jealous of Glenn Beck. I would love to have the kind of influence the man has. That is the struggle we have as human beings. We want to do good for our country. We can even put the cause above ourselves (as we should); but there is still an innate desire...

To Those Who Are Investigating "Mormonism" Part One Richard Packham If you are investigating Mormonism (the "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" or "LDS Church"), you are probably studying it in private meetings in your home with missionaries from that church. Here are some of the key things that they are probably telling you: Mormonism began in 1820 when a teen-aged boy in western New York named Joseph Smith was spurred by a Christian revival where he lived to pray to God for guidance as to which church was true. In answer to his prayers he was visited by...

My husband and I attended the Glenn Beck American Revival event today. It was very enlightening and inspiring!

This was written over a year ago (February 2009) but it is remarkably similar to the language of Glenn Beck on today’s program. “…As much as I would like to believe that people now in power who use the misnomer of Democrat are simply too ignorant to understand this, I know better. If you stop and consider who is actually governing our country, those America protesting, drugged out, insolent hippies pictured in those Woodstock photos – it is obvious that none of this is coincidental. Don’t be fooled by the mere fact that they now take showers, cut their hair...

Catholic in America Glenn Beck's Anti-Catholic Rants Anthony Stevens-Arroyo Few people are better at making accusations with code words than Glenn Beck, the Fox News celebrity. With his chalkboard logic, Beck creates conspiracies that almost always make him a savior against anything named "Democrat" or "Obama." Ordinarily, it is convenient to ignore such prattle as just as empty as Beck's interpretation of history, but now he is using his lies and distortions to take on my Church. The irrepressible Mr. Beck has made quite a stir recently by equating priests who promote the social justice ministry as Communists and Fascists....

Glenn Beck loves freedom. He loves freedom of speech, freedom of travel, and he fights anyone who tries to take away those freedoms. Beck is also against labels of left and right. Just like O’Reilly, he wants the image of an independent centrist. Both men do it by criticizing the right at times. Both men, in my opinion, care more about criticizing the right than they do about facts or logic (I admit I made a driveby comment about Bill. Maybe I’ll expand another time). Recently, in his March 8th TV show, about 13 minutes in, Glenn Beck started warning...

Glenn Beck's special on extremists in American History. Only caught the last half hour but this looks very interesting. http://www.watchglennbeck.com/video/2010/March/Watch-The-Glenn-Beck-Show-March-11-2010/ Danny

This starts off as an intellectual discourse on the use of apostates in political arguments, but descends to a pity party on Glenn Beck’s part when he goes after Michelle Malkin for criticizing his decision to give an hour to Eric Massa. It starts downhill at the moment that Beck says, “I don’t understand you people,” which takes the Boss Emeritus aback. (snip) One can believe that the Obama administration is playing hardball with or without Massa’s testimony on this point, but relying on Massa undermines the argument if it turns out that Massa may be exaggerating or prevaricating for...

The Wall Street Journal featured a column today about Rep. Eric Massa titled “Martyr to the Public Option”. Now, by that title, they obviously meant “martyr” figuratively but if this guy really has as much dirt as Glenn Beck implies, he better...

Conservative "blogs" and radio shows are still buzzing about the keynote speech that radio and TV host Glenn Beck delivered at this year’s "Conservative Political Action Conference", or CPAC. Mr. Beck is being simultaneously hailed and denounced in conservative circles for his view that the Republicans have not shown that they can be relied on to halt the expansion of statism. His critics are not happy with him because they claim that he is putting the GOP in the same category with the Democrats when it comes to culpability for the expansion of the state. In one sense they do...

Quick facts for full disclosure: I have been a Beck fan since 2001, and an avid fan since 2004. I have met Glenn at a book signing, I thanked him for changing my life. He is the reason that as a single mother of 3 (2 toddlers and a middle schooler), I went back to college. I made the President’s list, and he signed my certificate from the school for me. I cried, and he got up from behind his table and hugged me. I have a great love and respect for him as a man, not just a talk...
