GD bunch of Moderator cut: language will still be cheering this one the day that what Beck said on his show today becomes complete truth and Obama does become a dictator.

Moderator cut: Off topic

I could care less if you watch the remainder of the clip or not but if you do he starts talking
about the macular dystrophy at the 6:25 mark.

Beck makes fun of blind people......hypocrite.

Glenn Beck:
I work at Radio City in midtown Manhattan, and up by the doors, you know, like where the — you know — the office kitchen is, in Braille, on the wall, it says “kitchen.” You’d have to — a blind person would have to be feeling all of the walls to find “kitchen.” Just to **** them off, I’m going to put in Braille on the coffee pot — I’m going to put, “Pot is hot.” Ow!

First, I do hope that Glenn Beck's not going blind. Now, for a somewhat snarky remark that I simply can't resist, mute maybe, but not blind. (Ok, I deserve to smack myself for this.)

I've been thinking for a long while that Glenn Beck is truly mentally ill as I used to listen to him, but shortly after he published "The Christmas Sweater", he seemed to go over the edge.

I'm a little suspicious of the macular dystrophy diagnosis. I did some research on this, and its a genetic disease and usually appears LONG before reaching your 40's. Perhaps, it's an incorrect diagnosis and appropriate treatment can be started. Link on macular dystrophy: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1193871-overview

If indeed a fact that he is going blind, I wonder what God's message to Glenn Beck is in all of this. To focus on what is really important, like your family, and not be so paranoid about your government and leaders.

Many of you guys are ignorant of the human condition. You should be ashamed of yourselves. This has nothing to do with politics.


God Bless Glenn and his family.




For the Record: I not a watcher of his. But I do have empathy in my heart.

Glenn Beck is a controversial figure, this forum is not only about politics.

Did he have his hand out? If so, then it sounds like Oral Roberts' tearful speech about how God would take him home if we didn't send him a bunch of money.

Beck is a liar. This should be interesting to see how the blackboard turns.
