Turn Beck?

He turns from one position to another faster than a gas turbine.

The man is mentally unstable and needs to be placed in a quiet secure locked down facility and placed on a steady diet of Thorazine.

Why would any rational person consider his support as an asset is beyond me.

He’s in free fall as are his remaing fans.

I will end my Sirius subscription in a few months if Beck is still on that 9 A.M. time slot. It is him or that flake Smirkonish, and I will not pay for that combo.

BECK proved he couldn’t run with the top dog. He should stay on the porch.

As far as I’m concerned, Beck, Erickson, Brock, Hume, Will, Kristol, Krauthammer et al are selfish, self-promoting pompous ideological whores who actually know nothing about drive-by America or its problems.

Suggest they all go on a long cruise until after November. Call it the

Beck had his season where he was a superb teacher and a decent watchman on the wall.

But, when he became distracted while running from fears while chasing a dream, that season was over.

Whether he caught them or they caught him, it's hard to say, but he's not been the same since.

For me, he's painful to listen to these days, so I don't.

He seems like an airline pilot whose plane's been hijacked and, now out of options, stale fear and a mild case of Stockholm syndrome have hijacked his judgement and programming.

At this point, he's as likely to fly into a building as he is to land safely and I really don't care.

1. Beck is NOT influential.
2. Beck’s ego is tied to Cruz’s loss because he honestly thought his influence would be a King Maker, and he was soundly rejected.
3. Beck’s involvement with Cruz was so bizarre that THAT was a big reason for Cruz’s loss.
4. So Romney and McCain were so clean, pure and Conservative that Beck had no problem with them?
.... I turned him off months ago and don’t miss him a bit.

Everything you have said about Beck appears correct.

Apparently, what must be "beyond" you, is that this rational person believes many of his fans vote. Turn him and you gain more votes.

Of course, you don't need to worry about that if you believe Trump has a fraud-free election in the bag.

Drop The Moral Superiority

He'd have to 'drop' Mormonism.

“Glenn Beck is one of America’s most influential commentators...”

And...

Joseph Smith is a prophet.

Oh??


James 3:1 (NIV)
Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.


2 Timothy 4:3 New International Version
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

He already has it. He paid close to $60K for it.

Yep, that's what I said, but I think your Mormon Warning System suffered a premature misfire here with my observation.

Beck had a season where he was a superb teacher of American History and he was a decent watchman on the wall in the spirit of Paul Revere, warning of the rising tide coming against US and rising up within US.

Somewhere along his way, for whatever reason or temptation, he lost the mission and fell.

In the bigger picture depicting the story we were all born into, you may be right or not. I don't know.

I have my theories, but I don't currently have a developed opinion regarding Mormons.

My theorizing about life is a work in progress, but I've been hanging out here quite a bit these days:

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5
I like the view from here a little bit better every day, so I think I'll keep it.
