When one iconic conservative provocateur calls out another, it isn't just a feud it's a civil war.
Donald Trump finally came under some real fire at both Wednesday debates, with Gov. Bobby Jindal throwing hard, if distant, punches Trumps way in the minor league debate earlier in the evening and several candidates pouncing on the leader in the prime-time event. But Trumps bad week started with a potentially much more damaging attack from Glenn Beck, who went third-rail on Monday to accuse many of Trumps supporters of being racist. (This accusation would actually be corroborated later in the week.) The shots from fellow candidates on the debate stage still stayed within the parameters of primary propriety, sharp at times but ultimately safe, in accord with the rules of engagement. Only electoral flesh wounds were delivered. Glenn Becks attack went to the heart of the Trump phenomenon, with the conservative talker naming the elephant in the room: Trumps Tea Party supporters are racist.
Youre not supposed to even entertain that notion in conservative circles. Its a pure fabrication of Democrats and their liberal media machine, goes the conservative line. In fact, conservatives constructed a defense against charges of racism modeled on the he who smelt it, dealt it logic of third grade: To name racism is to....

The Mormon Church. The biggest click ever divised in the history of the world.
Take away Becks Mormon listeners and he hasnt got 1000 left.
I think he was “collected” about 2 yrs ago....the rantings about “birt-hers”...seemed starange w his 2 “assistants...acting like handlers....any way did you know that dr. rober-t l-anza created a stem cell therapy that is banned for “common” americans?...its called macular regener-ation therapy....it can save vision in older people...it also tends to ex-tend the life span by 20 yrs....so...the general public....they arnt gonna get this....however...certain “special people”......might want it done...of course the Price....would probly be rather high.
Anyway its interesting
oh well
Glenn Beck is certifiable.
wing nuts hold a lot of things together. and help when you need to disassemble whatever they are holding together on the fly. for me it’s not a pejorative term
I support Cruz but I am very thankful for Trump. He is bringing focus on the GOP like never before.
i’m hoping he and cruz can create some kind of government for the people again. hoping!
I still like Beck... trump is not my Koolaid..aid. Florence Nightengale was likely a bipolar... Who cares? Glenn is still talking about Islam while our soldiers listen to Afghan allies rape children. To do nothing and to say nothing is to be complicit.
Glenn either has DWBS (Delayed Wet Brain Syndrome) or has started taking mood altering substances again.....
Beck is trying to be relevant.
His 15 minutes are over.
Will look up lanza— a could be route to this outcome.
The stem cell source being umbilical, hopefully, and not Planned Parenthood.
Did he ever mentioned bipolar specifically?
I quit listening sometime ago, when he started having a bunch of pro amnesty politicians on. Before that, he was pretty amazing. He was still the drama queen, with hisi constant “you have to watch the show on Friday it will be the best ever”. And then nothing really happened.
But he did some amazing historical stuff. And him tying in Alinsky with Obama and other current progressives was spectacular. If it weren’t for him nobody would be talking about that. Even Ben Carson mentioned it during the first debate. Now Rush and Mark Levin talk about Alinsky and Cloward-Pivan and the progressive plan like they came up with the connection.
I wonder what mental problems Beck is having. It is truly sad to watch. He really needs to do it privately, like Michael Fox and others have done, where they just come on shows or interviews occasionally.
What was he hospitalized for?
Are you a doctor, or stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night?
Oh my gawd, Cottonball. Are you a beck kook? I didn’t know there were any left?
Not at all. I quit listening to him eons ago, even before he started sliding off the deep end. He started having pro-amnesty congressmen on and gave them softball questions.
My tone (really hard to tell via typed words) was not meant to put you on the spot or be sarcastic- I didn’t hear he was in the hospital so wanted to know what mental problems cause him to be so exuberant about nothing, then on to the next thing.
And you said your professional opinion, so i wanted to know your insights.
Ok.Fair enough. Several years ago he was hospitalized . It was a common ailment of no consequence ,in my opinion. Back then I would tune in. Well, there he was screaming about the hospital and the terrible doctors and crying like a baby on the radio. Many of you will remember. My best guess is 2009— 2010. It was irrational, in my opinion. He was of course an “EX” alcoholic but I never saw such a public disassemble. He was using bad language and losing it!! I will never forget realizing that he was a KOOK!!
Was that when he said he was being poisoned? I remember reading something about it.
What kind of mental illness do you think he has?
