Why do Freepers have a problem with Glen Beck?

Posted on 07/25/2014 8:27:27 AM PDT by MNDude

I've seen some negative comments about conservative talk radio host "Glen Beck" in here lately.

Wasn't he the one that brought a million conservatives to a rally in Washington DC? So I'm just curious, if there is one thing you don't like about Mr. Beck, what is it?

Why do I have a Major problem with Beck?...
I didn't at first..I was a fan...
But if you have listened at all to Beck..he himself has states he's “evolved” he's “changed”

Yes he has changed .

He gone from a conservative with libertarian leaning
To a libertarian
To a Party line Libertarian
To a Progressive Libertarian ( a useful idiot/ fool)

To paraphrase Reagan on his own political migration. .

I did not leave the Beck..Beck has left us..

And again Beck himself has stated he moved his position. .so are you just going to follow a fool on a fool's errand for the left?

Like you I found him informative and interesting when he first started and kept to the issues he spoke about....I could even tolerate his outbursts and clowning around for a time.

However he’s mixed too many “other” messages within the framework of his shows...and personal stuff I really have no interest in. In doing so he’s gone off the mark of what his shows were once about.

Before he was popular because he didn’t make himself the center of his program....the focus was events and happenings, research and revealing. Now it’s so often about the latest “hype” he hype’s even further and the focus is lost along the way.

Soccer balls for MS-13...strike three.

You're OUT, Mr. Beck.

Good Grief. I’m almost sixty and if you want to ping for later using an abbreviation, go right ahead. It took me a while to realize I was supposed to send it to myself! Kept pinging the poster. LOL

I wish Mark Levin would whisper when he gets angry. As a matter of fact, I wish I would whisper when I get angry, too.

None of that side stuff bother me..
it his positions..
look at him as of TODAY..position for position...is he right or left? Conservative, Libertarian or Progressive?

what are his principles?

Is he looking for truth and the hard facts or just emotionally reactionary

Look at the new positions he is taking..

he gone progressives left in his new positions.(, gays, bundy,illegals. .just to name a few)..
he even apologize for his old conservative position..he did that at the start of the year.

he ready for a slot on MSNBC

Hes become the new Chris Matthews

(recall Matthews many many years back was a fill in guest host for Rush!)

I haven’t watched him for many months now so I really don’t know what he’s doing NOW..I just know he’s off somewhere other than what I’m interested in hearing....which he was generally leading to all over the map when I stopped watching.

Well, let’s see.

He’s an emotion-driven, feminized bawling drama queen.

He has a habit of suckering in his listeners with promises of huge stories that will change the world. Those stories fail to materialize.

He encouraged more illegals to come here after trucking all those goodies to the border. Note that he didn’t do it quietly——he actually told folks to take note that he was doing it after being unfairly maligned by the media. So he took along his personal photographer and made it all about himself, and then called conservatives “judgmental” and “pusses” for not jumping on board with his latest stunt.

He got all emotional about the way queers were being treated in Russia and vowed to stand with GLAAD, one of the vilest organizations in existence.

He attacked Cliven Bundy during the ranch stand-off.

Need anything else?

As I mentioned earlier, he made the maximum allowable contribution to Jerry Brown in his race for Attorney General. I would rather listen to elevator music than hear that phony bloviate.

I have no problem with him, as I consider him to be a fictional character along with most characters you see and hear on tv and radio.

But I think those that don’t care for him find him to be a Lonesome Rhodes types of person.

His ‘conservatism’ stops at his allowance of invading persons, into America. he’s all Bilderber stuff, but cannot stand up and say that Obama is a Communist, and should be thrown out of office.
