Glenn Beck Hammers Ed Schultz for Using His Long-term Illness to Promote ObamaCare
NewsBusters.org ^ | November 12, 2014 | Randy Hall

This week has been a busy time for conservative icon Glenn Beck. During his Monday program, Beck admitted to his audience at TheBlaze.com that he had been suffering from a rare neurological disease for five years, but after undergoing hormone therapy, electric stimulation and other treatments -- not to mention relying on his faith in God -- the disease has been reversed, and he's on his way to an almost total recovery.

Don’t hate me when I say this, but I don’t
necessarily believe Beck when he says he
was suffering from a neurological disorder....
I mostly like what he does, but he’s flaky.

Sounds like he’s saying his physical ills are worse than Ed’s. I’m not qualified to judge.

Beck, like Hannity, interviews leading conservative politicians. I like to listen-in. :)

Does that mean he's no longer a wild-eyed, drug addled, faggot loving, baby-killer, Republican-hating Libertarian, and now is a conservative-Christian Republican?

That’s what I thought. I was wondering if my memory was somehow incorrect. Beck is a very helpful at explaining and analyzing complex social and political ideas, I give him that. However, Glen also has a tendancy to be a male drama queen, someone apt to say or do anything to get attention and a strong reaction. This may be one of the reasons why Sarah has not done more with Glen since he left Fox.
Makes you wonder what rabbit he will next pull out of his top hat, divorce rumors, gender reassignment under consideration like Mr. Kardashian?

I’m pretty sure Glenn Beck is whatever he thinks will make him the most money in the current political climate.

I bet Schultz doesn’t praise the high deductables Obamacare created.

As someone with a disability I really fear govt having total control over health care. I don’t see govt as a well of compassion toward those with disabilities as they have shown repeatedly in Europe and with the VA that when possible they will cause harm to those with disability and not give a damn when they hasten their death.

I don't believe one word Glenn Beck says. He is a great flim/flam man, and is a detriment to the Conservative cause. Just because you can draw a large crowd doesn't mean that you are for real.

How long has Ed Schulz been mentally ill? Decades, centuries? Born that way?

For him, there is no cure except the Grin Reaper, my brother.

Special Ed is a hatemonger and a fool.

The Blaze Radio App at either his websites GlennBeck.com or The Blaze.com are free, but now the podcasts are free at Stitcher, Sound Cloud and I Heart Radio. They had been around for a while on Sound Cloud, but now he closed the podcast area on GlennBeck.com for paying members who have The Blaze TV. His shows on TV are not free and The Blaze TV carries video of his radio show. Also the sites he uses now have podcasst for every radio show on The Blaze Radio. Hostess Dana Loesch on The Blaze TV is not with the radio outfit, but her podcasts of her radio show are at 97.9 FM in Saint Louis. Still the TV show has the same rules as Glenn Beck. You can only view it and 30 day archives as subscriber. There is no audio podcast of the shows on The Blaze TV. But if you want it then you can try to record the shows audio or even the video, but good luck trying to make it viewable outside of the website as they have banned people posting the show on youtube before. Now if you want to go torrent, good luck. That would be something new, I don’t know about.
