Record or watch his show on FOX this week. He is showing all the links to the Czars what some of thiers past is about. You will learn the ties to Cap and Trade and the enviromentaists movements, who designed the stimulous and more. I know a lot of people find beck annoying but watch the content this week and wake up.

Is anyone watching this week? My eyes are opening like never before.

I am serious when I ask that no matter what you political affiliation is you need to watch with an open mind this week. Set your DVR 5:00 eastern time.

I don't get cable; however, of all the conservative political commentators, I can tolerate Glenn Beck the best. I heard he lost quite a few sponsors recently for some remarks about the Obama adminstration...

That's what the mainstream media want you to think. He is evil and a liar. Any sponsor who didn't want to advertise on his show went to another Fox show so the revenue is a scratch. He is quirky but one of a few to really lay it on the line. Michael Savage is another who tells it the way it is. Thanks for the heads up gears. I don't get home in time to watch so it's DVR time.

Is that the Civilian Defense Force Obama talked about during his campaign? He said it should be as large and equally funded as our military. Who would be the controller of said force? Mr. Obama. Be very afraid.

That is what I hear.

I guess the comments he made about the Obama administration made his sponsors angry. It's not my money. If they don't want to give Glen Beck their money then that is their business.

But if you don't want to give the government your money it is the IRS's business. You have NO choice, even when you don't like the way things are run and the money squandered. I thought we live in a free country? Nope.

The future of the USA

I don't watch much TV so I don't have cable that carries FOX news. This morning while I made breakfast I went online to FOX.com and listened to portions of what was broadcast this past week. Yes he did share some disturbing yet important facts. I most liked his statement that this isn't a Democrat vs Republican issue, but one of Democrats, Republicans, Independents together vs. radical progressives. For all of us, including the people who support this administration please make the time to research what's going on behind the scenes. Verify the facts and decide for yourself if this is the change America needs. I think not. But each individual needs to make that decision for themselves, then decide what they believe needs to be done about it. Please take the first step by making the time to research the facts, determine the truth, then as a responsible citizen of this great country get involved. John

Some honest sentiments aired but we need to keep away from politics people or someone is bound to get too upset.

get smarter than these doorknobs and turn them off.


Beck,O'Reilly,Olberman,the Ed show,Lou Dobbs

they are all scumbags

they say crap you want to hear so you'll watch their show

so you'll look at their ads.

Fox didnt lose any sponsors because of Beck's race baiting,they just moved the sponsors to other slots.

did you know that Bill O'Reilly created the Factor and tried to sell it to CNN,and got blown off?
Fox news was actually his second shot.

if he went to MSNBC,O'Reilly would be crying about all the right wing nuts out there.

since he's on Fox,he goes after the left wing nuts.

these people are ******,and will tell you whatever it takes to watch their show

they are the true parasites on society

Don't confuse entertainment for facts. Do your own thinking.

Amen...Don't forget math, history checks, and a few other things. Right or left you need to sit on your representatives, or they will stray. What (they think) is good for them is generally not good for you. I forget who said it first, but when it comes to govt most of them are playing between the 40 yard lines any way.

that is right. i called my senator and told him that. he told me that someone that has ben there for a while needs to be there so they can show the new people how to do things. i told him that is exactly why we need term limits. seeing that they would be voting themselves out of a job, it is unlikely that it will ever happen.
