Beck seeks to only advantage himself.

And, no, I don't read any site that Soros is involved with. Just because Fox tells you what to think doesn't mean there is a liberal equivalency. I come to my own conclusions about worthless Glen Beck without "help" from George Soros or any other liberal site.

I did what you frequently suggest-- I watched Beck. I'm not much for revisionist history, demagoguery or pandering... so I decided my time was better spent NOT watching Beck.
If you say all those things about soros,only place you could have come with that, is a liberal site. most likely the huffington post. no doubt about it!!!

Beck was at a theatre that seated only 3,000 but he had it on cable that went out to hundreds of theatres around the country. I wanted to find one that had it but none around here did.

"I asked them for 3,000, one for everyone -- but they could only make 400," he said.


400, just what I read. I don't always type what I mean and don't know why. Please don't think I would make a great lib anchor. Oh my no. That would bring on the end of me. I was one of those libs up to the time of my 42nd year and the Dems nominated a socialist for president and I left the party. I have been a good Republican ever since then and that means 36 years of that kind of thinking. I just don't mix with libs, but I don't type real good either.

Thank God, I thought I was losing it. You are a big Beck supporter just like I am.

Beck had a town hall with 2500 people and made them all happy.
Anyone interested in a "town hall" meeting hosted by Glenn Beck is easily amused!

If you have a chance, it is a good show to catch.

You will walk away a better American.

You're going to want this one back pghquest. That's a really bad comparison. Was Obama even there? Did the people pay to attend the town hall? They call your post "a bit of a stretch" in the business...

I never heard of having to pay to go to a "town hall" meeting. Beck seems to have co-opted that term and is using it for something that is not a town hall meeting.
