The guy is a total loser. His show and his "prophecies" are just absurd, today he was saying that he has been "self editing" his monologues lately because he does not want to "give it all away" LOL, I wonder if it may have something to do with the fact that so many sponsors left.

You think a crackhead and someone who gets addicted to painkillers..
Due to a back injury is the same?

Beck WAS an alcoholic who got his life together i think thats great.
The fact is in one breath Beck railed against "The Nightmare that is our Health Care system" and now defends it as "The best in the world". Can't have it both ways. I'm sure none of this new POV has anything to do with his move to Fox news. Just like Rushie, who doctor shopped his drug of choice, while screaming that drug addicts should be thrown in jail. Typical hypocritical buffoon. But more than anything, an insurance industry shill who is laughing at his fanbase all the way to the bank.

you obviously don't listen to him. He hasn't said what you think he did.

France (yes; EVIL EVIL France), Norway, Canada, UK - all far better than what we have now.

And the real reason conservatives are opposed to a government option is becasue they want to keep the money flowing to their insurance company buddies.

Republicans, however, have bought the line of crap fed to them about death panels and rationing health care.
Answer 1 question. How come people come from these countries to the US to get procedures done if theirs is so superior to ours?

Feel free to address that if you care to...
There is a huge difference between reforming the current system and government take over. Beck is against government take over not reform. If you listened to him, you might know this. 0bama said it himself, "...it's the post office with all the problems..." Why would you want another poorly run government program?

I know US citizens who go to Thailand for dental surgery.

Why do you suppose that is?

Rubbish. He said exactly that. Why don't you read his own words for yourself?

Glenn Beck - Current Events & Politics - Hospitals Gone Bad

How ironic that his move to Fox Noise caused such an amazing turnaround in his view of our current health care system.

Beck's a hypocritical a**.

A) a public OPTION is not a government take over
B) If he wants reform, why would he be saying our system is the best one in the world?

Default Glenn Beck shoots himself in foot over healthcare in America.

You MUST watch this.
How can anyone take ANYTHING that beck says seriously now?
This is just a example of how the spin can catch up with you.
