I think if he is trying to reach people he is being at times too sarcastic to reach some people of lesser intillect.I admire him for trying to expose "spooky dude Soros"( an evil person,collaborator in younger days) also some of the selected Czars,actually most of them are questionable.

Very boring to me because he tries to be a showman & he's a drink away from crying all over the set. Let's not forget that he is not playing with a full deck people! I wouldn't let him wash my car.

Your comments about Glenn Beck

He's A Rodeo Clown!

Beck was born in Everett, Washington in 1964 to William and Mary Beck. He was raised as a Roman Catholic and attended private Immaculate Conception Catholic School in Mount Vernon. After graduating from high school, he moved to Provo, Utah and worked as a disc jockey at radio station KAYK before moving to Washington D.C. to work at WPGC.

After marrying and having two children with his first wife, Claire, Beck came to terms with his substance abuse problems, with the help of Alcoholics Anonymous. He was admitted to Yale University in 1996, but attended just one class (Early Christology) before dropping out.

In 1999, Beck married his second wife, Tania. That year they joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In 2006, Beck went to work for CNN Headline News, hosting the talk show "Glenn Beck," an evening talk show.

Beck joined Fox News Channel in 2008. He hosts his own show Monday through Friday. He also hosts a nationally syndicated radio show ("The Glenn Beck Program") which is one of the highest-rated national talk shows among adults ages 25 to 54. In 2008, Beck won the Marconi Radio Award for Network Syndicated Radio Personality of the Year.

Beck has written five New York Times best-sellers including "The Real America: Messages from the Heart and the Heartland," "An Inconvenient Book" and "The Christmas Sweater." He is also the founder and editor of the comedy magazine Fusion which is a "fusion of entertainment and enlightenment."

Today, Beck lives in the wealthy New York City suburb of New Canaan, Connecticut with his wife and four children. It is estimated that he is paid $2 million per year by Fox, and that his other activities produce an annual income of $23 million or more.

Joe Carter, writing at the First Things Journal website on March 8, 2010, from the article "Glenn Beck Thinks Catholics Should “Leave Their Church”."

On March 2, 2010, Fox News personality Glenn Beck said on his radio program: "I’m begging you, your right to religion and freedom to exercise religion and read all of the passages of the Bible as you want to read them and as your church wants to preach them... are going to come under the ropes in the next year. If it lasts that long it will be the next year. I beg you, look for the words ’social justice’ or ‘economic justice’ on your church Web site. If you find it, run as fast as you can. Social justice and economic justice, they are code words. Now, am I advising people to leave their church? Yes!."

Carter wrote: "Could Beck’s claim be construed as “anti-Catholic?” Yes and no. I think if anyone else had made the remark it would have been hard to dismiss the anti-Catholic undertones. But Beck is a special case: He is too prone to say any dumb thing that pops into his head and too ignorant about history and religion to truly understand the implications of his statement. This doesn’t excuse him, of course, but it certainly is reason not to be too shocked when a self-professed “rodeo clown” advises people to leave their churches over Catholic “code words” like social justice."
