Former Alaska GOP Gov. Sarah Palin on Wednesday did not rule out running for president alongside Fox News host Glenn Beck in 2012. Palin was asked during an interview with Fox News’s “Fox & Friends” about the chances that she “would run on a ticket with Fox’s own Glenn Beck,” as the conservative outlet Newsmax reported might be a possibility in 2012. “I saw that, I saw that; he probably got a kick out of that,” Palin said. “It was just a hoot, too, to hear such a thing.” “I don’t know,” she said. “We’ll see, we’ll see.” Palin did...

Glenn Beck tells his nephew not to reenlist because he doesn't trust Obama's commitment to the military! http://www.therightscoop.com/beck-doesnt-trust-obama-tells-his-newphew-not-to-reenlist/

The conservative TV and radio host wants to hold conventions to move his followers to political action and 'change America's course.' Some say his activism could widen the split within the GOP. Glenn Beck wants to become . . . a community organizer. The voluble Fox News television host says he hopes to transform his personal celebrity into political action and has begun to assemble a movement to "change America's course." Beck announced his intentions at a weekend rally at a retirement community outside Orlando, Fla., where he was promoting his new book, "Arguing With Idiots." He continued outlining his...

Opinion Who's Watching Glenn Beck? Much like the Depression-era demagogue Father Charles Coughlin, the Fox News personality is promoting a mass movement. Should his bosses be pulling the plug? By Tim Rutten November 24, 2009 For nearly a century, the Anti-Defamation League has stared unflinchingly into the dark corners of America's social psyche -- the places where combustible tendencies such as hatred and paranoia pool and, sometimes, burst into flame. As a Jewish organization, the ADL's first preoccupation naturally was anti-Semitism, but in the last few decades it has extended its scrutiny to the whole range of bigoted malevolence --...

There’s an old saying I just made up: “Don’t judge the message by the messenger. Judge the message on its actual content.” When I first heard that saying (about two minutes ago), it came to me as I was watching the youtube videos of Glenn Beck’s announcement at “The Villages” here in Florida... The Wrong People Are Winning Because We Let ThemThe wrong people have been “winning” in this country for too long. But, it’s primarily because those of us who know what’s right have been too comfortable in our barcaloungers and designer fashions to stand up and confront them....

Envy is a form of flattery, but don't tell MSNBC "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann. Olbermann, on his Nov. 23 broadcast, didn't stray from his usual shtick of character assaults and name-calling for his "Worst Person in the World" segment. But he did hint his feelings were hurt after he named Fox News host Glenn Beck the third place recipient in this "Worst Person" contest.

Um...Let me guess. Nancy Franklin is somewhat less than enamored with Glenn Beck. In fact, she downright hates and despises him as you can see in her New Yorker article. Ironically Franklin accuses Beck of spreading venom in her incredibly venomous story which concludes by comparing him to the character of Lonesome Rhodes in the excellent 1957 film, A Face in the Crowd. A few of the "love notes" tossed in Beck's direction: Glenn Beck, the energetically hateful, truth-twisting radio and Fox News Channel talk-show host, was absent from the airwaves for a week...The persona that Beck has cobbled together...

Jobs that not only help save the planet but usher individuals and neighborhoods out of poverty - talk about a silver bullet. If the promise of green jobs sounds too good to be true, the simplicity of the logic is difficult to resist: Train and hire people who are economically marginalized in work that is critical but has been neglected. Instead of poor people getting stuck at the back of the line, they step to the front of the new technology. The Bay Area's Van Jones was a visionary, early recognizing the social justice potential in the green economy. Jones,...

Watch Glenn Beck’s Entire Speech at the Villages on November 21, 2009 http://www.therightscoop.com

Yesterday they underlined this message by pointing to reports showing that Mr Obama had failed to convene a single policy meeting of the Senate European subcommittee, of which he is chairman. There was also strikingly robust criticism from an independent Washington think-tank about a “disconcerting void” over transatlantic relations in Mr Obama’s foreign policy, as well as from a former British Minister for Europe. Mr Obama’s advisers say that he has an “intuitive grasp” of world affairs because he spent part of his childhood abroad. “The benefit of my life of having both lived overseas and travelled overseas is, I...

Glenn Beck Stakes Out a More Activist Role in Politics BRIAN STELTER November 21, 2009 Glenn Beck, the popular and outspoken Fox News host, says he wants to go beyond broadcasting his opinions and start rallying his political base — formerly known as his audience — to take action. To do so, Mr. Beck is styling himself as a political organizer. In an interview, he said he would promote voter registration drives and sponsor a series of seven conventions across the country featuring what he described as libertarian speakers.

Glenn Beck [...] says he wants to go beyond broadcasting his opinions and start rallying his political base — formerly known as his audience — to take action. To do so, Mr. Beck is styling himself as a political organizer. In an interview, he said he would promote voter registration drives and sponsor a series of seven conventions across the country featuring what he described as libertarian speakers. On Saturday he held a festive campaign-style rally in The Villages in Florida, north of Orlando, in which he promoted his recently released book, “Arguing With Idiots,” and announced another book to...

At the Villages in Florida, conservative media superstar Glenn Beck unveiled his hotly-anticipated "Plan" -- a new direction for his program, and for America that he'd been hinting at on the air. On Saturday, Beck told the New York Times that from now on, along with hosting his popular tv and radio shows, he "would promote voter registration drives and sponsor a series of conventions across the country featuring what he described as libertarian speakers." He also said he planned to publish yet another non-fiction book in August 2010. (Beck's five previous books have all been NYT #1 bestsellers.) Already,...

A crowd that had to be several thousand strong came out to Borders bookstore on South Dale Mabry in Tampa this morning to meet and greet (quickly) conservative icon Glenn Beck. The radio and cable television personality sandwiched Tampa in between two other Florida stops on Saturday. He began the day in Lee County, came (late) to Tampa, arriving at about 12:15 p.m., and then went to the Villages, where he made his much hyped announcement that he had been teasing his listeners and viewers about in recent days. According to Orlando television station WOFL: He also said he plans...

Friends, What an amazing few days on the road this has been. Your spirits have been high, your faith strong and your spine unbendable. I ended my multiday book tour at The Villages with what had been billed as a rally but could be better described as a candid citizen-to-citizen chat. Today, I have stopped looking for a leader to show us the way out because I have come to realize that the only one who can truly save our country...is us. To change America's course we need to change ourselves, our expectations and our willingness to accept the...

The line looked like a conservative's worst socialized-medicine nightmare, a thousand or more people assigned letters of the alphabet and following commands to snake through multiple turns. But the crowd didn't seem to mind. And when the first glimpse of spiky gray hair emerged through a back entrance by the magazine section, a huge cheer erupted. Conservative media star Glenn Beck spent about 90 minutes signing copies of his latest bestseller, Arguing With Idiots, at the Books-A-Million store in Chasewood Plaza this evening. The stop was part of a two-day, seven-city swing through Florida, the kind of tour political candidates...

Glenn Beck, the controversial Fox News television host, is planning on becoming more active in the populist conservative movement he spawned, according to sources familiar with his thinking. At a rally Saturday at a massive retirement community in central Florida, Beck is planning to unveil what he has billed as a “big plan” for 2010, which is expected to involve the 9.12 Project, the group he started earlier this year and named for the day after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, when he says the nation was unified. “Coming this January, my whole approach changes on this program,” he...

It's easy to make fun of Glenn Beck. We've done it here, and Beck even does it himself (as on the November cover of his Fusion magazine). But over the last couple of weeks, as Beck lay recuperating from appendicitis, he's been the target of numerous satirical skewerings, from such parodists as 'Saturday Night Live,' 'The Daily Show,' and 'South Park.' Some of these barbs have gone beyond mocking his on-air antics and have gotten viciously personal. Not that we want to be the Beck-lash police, but to paraphrase a well-known Britney Spears fan, is it time to leave Glenn...

Want to know how does the left really feels about free speech? Look no further than Huffington Post editor and co-founder Arianna Huffington. Huffington appeared on MSNBC's Nov. 19 "Countdown" to discuss a report by the Anti-Defamation League that alleges Fox News host Glenn Beck is "the most important mainstream media figure who has repeatedly helped to stoke fires of anti-government anger" and therefore endangering society. "It would be nice to think of Glenn Beck just as a joke, as fodder for this show and the "Daily Show" and others that point out how stupid some of this stuff is,"...

Very grim show tonight. Beck expects Senate to pass Obamacare by Christmas; bill to be "reconciled" and signed by Obama at beginning of 2010 (abortion back in, single-payer system in, Medicare rape back in). Beck's office called all 58 Dem senators for comment. Not one called back. They are in lock-down by Reid, Obama. Beck expects "immigration reform" to pass next. 20 million new Democrat voters. Unions being taken care of by Obama -- they get everything they want. Very alarming and depressing.

About six weeks ago, I engaged in an exchange about Glenn Beck, arguing that he makes it harder to convert the unsaved to the cause of limited government, and got an earful in return, mostly in the form of thoughtful but forceful emails saying I hadn’t given him a chance. So I set up my Tivo to record his show and have spent many cocktail hours since then watching. Last night’s opening shot encapsulates everything that has driven me nuts about the experience. Beck was, as usual, standing in front of his blackboard. Chalked on it was: “The democracy will...

WASHINGTON — Palin-Beck 2012? Sarah Palin has suggested Fox News firebrand Glenn Beck could be someone she'd consider as a running mate if she makes a bid for the White House in two years. "I can envision a couple of different combinations, if ever I were to be in a position to really even seriously consider running for anything in the future, and I'm not there yet," Palin told the conservative news agency Newsmax as she promoted her memoir, "Going Rogue: An American Life." "But Glenn Beck I have great respect for. He's a hoot. He gets his message across...

Beck who claims he uses several people to check and double check before going to air with a story has misrepresented the photo On Palin on News Week saying how could she do this it doesn't make her look good. This picture was taken months ago by Runners World Magazine Beck needs to formally apologize call him and tell him to retract criticism.

I had an interesting discussion with my wife the other night. We were both curiouis as to why radio talk show people such as Limbaugh, Levin, Hannity, do not promote or talk about Glenn Beck. I went to their various web sites and checked out what they recommend to read. It was interesting. Limbaugh - no Beck books. Levin - no Beck books. Hannity - no Beck books. Coulter - no Beck books. Ingraham - one Beck book. My wife and I came to the conclusion that the reason he is being shunned by the powers that be is due...

Okay - I don't really know if I want to share this, because I am going to have to leave work early, and get home late, and I really want to get my book signed, but...(major run on sentence alert) Glenn Beck is going to be at the Books a Million on Indiantown Road in Jupiter this Friday (11/20) rom 5-6 p.m.

Fox News' Glenn Beck isn't catching a break anywhere - from "Saturday Night Live," The New Yorker, Al Gore's Current TV and Comedy Central's "South Park." They have all taken shots at the popular TV host. On his Nov. 16 program, Beck responded to the "South Park" interpretation of him - that he wasn't making accusations, but phrasing them in the form of a question. The show's character Eric Cartman played a spoof of Beck which he railed against his school's president, Wendy Testaburger. Beck maintained he wasn't making the "accusations" in the form of a question - but playing...

The government dumped tens of billions of dollars into General Motors, and then dictated a “political bankruptcy” that trampled the rights of senior creditors in order to cut a sweetheart deal for the Obama administration’s union pals. Americans expected to see that pay off in broader investment and job creation, and that’s precisely what GM has in mind … for Europe. ABC News reports that GM plans to spend billions restructuring its Opel subsidiary rather than its core American businesses, and that has some lawmakers seeing red: Specifically, at a time when the nation’s unemployment rate has soared to levels...

While Glenn Beck’s detractors make fun of his emotional, teary eyes, he continues to rack up profits like a dollar slot machine.

In his column in Monday's paper, Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz observes that Fox News personality Glenn Beck is dominating the media conversation -- even to the point of forcing a White House official to resign -- without a bit of help from newspapers, television or other mainstream news sources. "It has become a familiar chain reaction: Talk-show hosts whip up a noisy controversy, which hits higher decibels as it spreads to the establishment media, which costs some unfortunate soul his job," Kurtz writes. "But now the middleman -- the journalistic gatekeepers of yore -- may no longer be...

This morning I visitied ConservativeNewMedia on YouTube and got this message: As of today, Fri. Nov 13, 2009, we are pulling all of our FOX News clips. We got a heads-up that FOX is going to be enforcing its copyright rights on YouTube, and we are thus forced to do this. At this time, we will not be able to post any further clips from FOX News. We'll keep you posted. Then I dug a little deeper and found it may be directed towards lefties. See, they don't like it when it happens to them!

I had the chance to watch Glenn Beck's show today and I have to say and I am sure some on the left, under their breath are saying; Glenn Beck, you magnificent b@#*ard... For those who may have missed Beck's show, some of his show can be seen here.Today's show should be used as a boilerplate for the GOP to develop a conservative grassroots movement among conservative blacks who have the desire to enter politics. This isn't the only time Beck has nailed it on the problems that plague the GOP. When Beck had David Horowitz on his show, the...

Here is video of Glenn Beck on with Bill O'Reilly tonight where he talked with Bill about Obama's handling of the Fort Hood Terrorist Attack. Beck was off last week because of appendicitis. Beck said he was amazed at Obama's "shout out" prior to speaking to the nation about the attack. Toward the end of the segment, Beck and O'Reilly made a "big announcement" - that they will be going on the road together the last week of January 2010. They will appear together in four cities on a "Bold & Fresh" Tour, where O'Reilly and Beck will each speak...

Glenn Beck clips purged from YouTube today?

A brilliant idea, although I hope the participants know that they’re now fair game for “progressive” blackface photoshops mocking them as traitors to their race. The Clinton coalition is fracturing, thanks to The One’s statism on steroids; every white suburbanite vote that’s lost will have to be made up with a minority vote, which means the volume on the demagoguery will have to be turned up that much higher. You’re a brave man, Charles Payne.
