Glenn Beck: 'I'm out of the Republican Party — I am not a Republican'
Yahoo News ^ | 3/18/2015 | Dylan Stableford

Glenn Beck says he is no longer a member of the Republican Party.

“I’ve made my decision — I’m out," Beck said on his radio show Wednesday, according to Mediaite.com. "I’m out of the Republican Party. I am not a Republican; I will not give a dime to the Republican Party. I’m out.”

The former Fox News host and founder of the Blaze supported the GOP during the last election cycle but has become disillusioned with the party in recent years over what he believes was its failure to stand up to the Obama administration — specifically, the Affordable Care Act and immigration reform.

“Four years ago I was with them," Beck said. "Four years ago I said, ‘Work from the inside, let’s change it, let’s get new guys in there.’"

But those efforts have proved futile, he said.

**I’ve also never been a fan of Glenn Beck.**

For awhile I was, then I saw what he was really about, and I didn’t like it.

Glenn’s still brought up talking about the Caliphate and did get that a bit to the mass market, also talked about Fabian Socialists. The latter, he could have heard from others talking but still, good to bring it out.

It’s been a long time for me also.

I left the Republican cult back in 1968 when the Constitution Party was still the AIP.

Times have changed, but true Conservative Christian political ideals have not.

Time for Liberty Party—Glen beck can be the first to Join or do the Reform Party! If others join we can do something. The RINOs have shot themselves one too many times. Let them have their Jeb Bush—the Liberty Party can nominate Sarah Palin!

Glen Beck did a great service to our nation, educating us on the true nature of the new marxists, the caliphate, and the rhino oligarchs. His blackboard should be in the Smithsonian. Unfortunately he was the only one to sound the alarm nationally so it was to little avail. And he has since dived into some bizzarre etherworld where he is increasingly detached. Thank you Glenn for what you did. As for the future of conservative news, it belongs elsewhere...

Taking the party back will take a few years, maybe more. It will be a fight of pain and recurring disappointment, but still a fight of our lives. Screw the so called leaders, get involved and lead silently, your work ethic will gain praise. Then you drop the hammer of conservatism. Some may leave, and you will be able to identify them!!!!!! Carry on, with a smile and we shall overcome!

Glenn was never a Republican. A loon but never a Republican. :-)

You still believe there are two parties? Good luck with
that one.

Amen.

Reagan had a chance to end the career of GHWB.

As time has gone by, I’m more and more sure that the Bush family is a dark, dark entity. The “patriotism,” the “Christianity,” etc.

Arthur, have you not read all my posts ? LOL.

Do you really want to know how bad it is in the Bushes ? You’d better be sitting down. And have a scotch handy. Well... a bottle.

Yeah yeah we all know what you are.

Our “big time” talk radio station recently cast Herman Cain to the wolves for Glen Beck.

Since I don’t have a TV, I didn’t know much about Beck. But I’ve listened to him enough now to say, IMHO, the man is nuts.

Liked Herman much better.

There was a Cardinal Sheehan, in Baltimore.

The TV bishop, later archbishop, was Fulton J. Sheen. He was a philosophy professor at Catholic University and head of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

When I read the headline, I didn't care, at first, because Beck has said some really strange things since leaving Fox News.

But I can't argue with his reasons: Immigration and ObamaCare.

Immigration is my number one issue.

ObamaCare is my number two - but tied with many others like spending, debt, unfunded Social Security and Medicare programs, defense of Israel, and Constitution-based law and governance.

I knew the GOP leadership and a majority of GOP Congressmen would betray us - AGAIN! - after the 2014 election, so I did not vote for the center-left GOP Congressional candidate in my District, which the Democrat incumbent won by 75%-25% anyway.

My last donation to the GOP was Mitt Romney. There is currently no 2016 GOP presidential candidate I will donate to or vote for, including Ted Cruz.

Cruz has done nothing to stop our current massive level of LEGAL immigration, and, he supports more foreign work visas.

Cruz also supports the Gang of Eight Amnesty, but with two amendments: “certified” border security and “no path to citizenship.”

Those amendments are useless, because they will never be enforced.

Notice the J.M.J at the top of the board. I’d forgotten that.

Beck came out for sodomite “marriage” a few years ago, calling it a “civil right”. This conspiracy moron has never been a conservative and every time he calls himself a libertarian real libertarians laugh at him. He would make a fine democrat though.

[right after I heard GWB smugly say, “See you at the bill signing”]

I knew we were in big trouble back then, too.
