I hope so, the sooner the better. We used to have good conservative commentary in the mornings in my market, but Beck is currently on Sirius Patriot as well as the station at 1150 kilocycles that used to be KRKD. I get so frustrated by the boring banter that comprises much of his program that I often turn to music.
No we don't, he now looks like a crackpot. He's obviously no-where near ready for his make-believe run.

He only looks like a crackpot because the perverts control the media. Too bad you think the way you do.
Glen Beck lost me when he came out in favor of homosexual marriage.
The few times I listen to his show now (out of morbid curiosity) he sounds like a member of GLADD or NAMBLA.
What a disappointment he has come since his rally in Washington D.C.
He looks like a crackpot because he didn't even think about what he was saying enough to be able to defend it, your hero Carson just furthered the gay rights movement.

Another Todd Akin.
Doesn't really matter. Ben Carson has never had a realistic path to the White House. But we don't need this crap muddling up the message and serving as a distraction. Carson needs to go away.
I like Ben Carson as Surgeon General. I think a lot of people jumped on his bandwagon as he was a breath of fresh air when he surfaced at the Prayer Breakfast. He is very bright, a good person, but doesn’t have the political savvy to be the President.
Several months later, when I got word that he was going to start the Blaze internet TV, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get a video version of PHUSA funded. It surely was right down his alley. I flew to NYC, met with Beck and Cheatwood. We were talking $1m production then for a series start of maybe 2 episodes. He somewhat abruptly handed me off to Joel, and that was pretty much it. Realize I already had a completed, G-rated, very good documentary called "Rockin' the Wall" about music's part in bringing down the Iron Curtain, that we were offering him very inexpensively to benefit us but also to start him off with good, solid exclusive programming. No dice.
My appearances got fewer and further in between. I was last on in the fall of 2014 when it was clear they wanted me to say things that supported David Barton's weird interpretation of current events. I wouldn't do it. But I could tell something was wrong when Joe Kerry left, because Joe had been his right hand man for years.
Beck self-destructed. He had the LARGEST TV audience for that kind of show---no one was close. I think he listened too much to Barton and, as far as his tv network went, it's as the article said: he had nothing you had to see, nothing special to tune in for. We offered him that, but he didn't want it.
Who is Glenn Beck?
Homosexuality is a mental disease, the worst kind: one that is communicable.
I did not know that Glen Beck was still around. By calling Carson a lunatic Glen Beck has found a way to get back into some level of headlines and notarity.
As far as I am concerned, Glenn Beck is dead. I will never read, listen, or watch him again.
I think he plays guitar. Or was that Ziggy. Hmm I guess I'm not sure who he is, but I am sure don't care.
RE: But we don’t need this crap muddling up the message and serving as a distraction
Whether we like it or not, ANY conservative candidate will have to deal with this question.
WHY? BECAUSE IT WILL ( I DID NOT SAY ‘MIGHT’, I SAID ‘WILL’ ) BE BROUGHT UP.
This, along with — Abortion, Rape and Abortion, Evolution vs Creation, etc.
Asking questions like these might be crap and a sideshow compared to say, foreign policy or the economy, but it is this crap that the MSM WILL bring up.
Any conservative candidate MUST BE prepared to deal with it.

Yep. And Carson demonstrated he wasn't prepared. I hope the real candidates are taking notes.
OK, let’s ask ourselves...
How does a conservative, who is a devout Christian questions like:
Do you believe Homosexuality is a choice or in born?
Do you approve of abortion in cases of rape or incest?
Do you believe the world was created in 6 days?
Here’s my answer: NO COMMENT.
Beck's rantings against Dr. Carson's clearly reasoned approach to the Homosexual problem, reflect on Beck, not Dr. Carson! While there are some people who are genetically compromised sexually, through no fault of their own, who deserve our compassion; there are also people who acquire tastes for particular activities, which may start as an experiment in a licentious era; and if Beck has a problem with acknowledging that fact, common courtesy--at least--ought to persuade him not to denounce those willing to discuss the fact.
