I consider myself a moderate. A centrist, if you will. I find myself completley out of touch with both the strong left and right of American politics. A friend of mine told me I should check out Glenn Beck's most recent books, "an inconvenient book" and "common sense". Thoughts?

Reading it now.

So far awesome.

I am liking Beck more and more all the time.

The man is onto something.

Common Sense, get it and read it. You might be amazed.

And pick up Dick Morris new book also.

DickMorris.com

In our new book, Catastrophe, we spell out clearly how Obama has disarmed us in the war on terror and excoriate him for giving Hamas almost $1 billion in foreign aid funneled through the United Nations relief agency in Gaza that takes orders from Hamas.

It is not easy to buy a copy of Common Sense unless you are ready to try to be among the first in a store the day you look. I went in one last Thursday and the computer said they had three copies but the man couldn't find even one. He said they go out about as fast as they come in.

Amazon said after the first week that their number one seller, Common Sense, sold 8 times as many copies as the book in second place. Is that popular, or not?

If you consider yourself a moderate person, you should steer as far away from Glenn Beck as possible.

Oh yes, that sounds moderate



I am trying to get a copy too. I cannot wait to read it. Liberals seem terrified of anything that may dispell the propaganda they suck up like lap dogs.

Glen Beck is an extreme right wing nut.

Beck takes on all sides - he owes no alligence to any political party.

The "Common Sense" book is great.

Beck reminds me of the guy who stands on the corner with a sign saying that the world is ending. He also really needs to have his mother dress him better. I have never seen a person on T.V. with a job like his dress so bad! Beck is a real piece of work.

If you are worried about how Beck dresses you must be horrified at how michelle obama dresses! She is a mess!

He looks like a grown up Ralphy from Christmas Story. I like to listen to him, but he can be passionate about his opinions.
