Both Beck and BOR think Obama is a natural-born American.
And...Ditto! Rush should sit up and take careful notes!
Rush, Beck, OReilly, Coulter, Levine, Medved, Ingram, and the rest, have been contemptible!
If Rush and the rest can't defend the Constitution ( ALL OF IT!) when all they risk is a little ridicule from the mainstream media, why on earth would we trust them to defend it in the face of real tyranny, jack boots, and gas ovens?
If Rush, Beck, Coulter, Ingram, and the rest, are phonies they will sell their talents to fascist oligarchy crushing us. If they are cowards, they will snivel in the corner and beg that the tyrants not throw them off the air, steal their money, and carry out their threats. Perhaps these so-called conservative talk show yappers are already doing both!
If true, any drop is simply because real Americans can only stomach so much truth right now. Glenn Beck is right, far more often than not. The lefty Progressive Obamabots have placed America on a bullet train to ruin, and frankly, it’s tough to watch.
“I believe this is due to him undermining the Obama eligibility movement. The people see through the attacks Glenn and we sense that you are aiding Obama and John McCain hide their alleged cover up of Obama’s ineligibility.”
Blah, blah, blah, blah-blah, blah, blah.
He wasn’t part of the Birther movement before Jan. 2010, and he hasn’t been harping on the movement since then. Had you missed his sporadic references to the movement, you wouldn’t know whether or not he was a Birther. It’s not as if, anyway, Birthers care about nothing but Birtherism. If they did, they wouldn’t have very many political shows to watch.
By the way, wherefor this wacky notion that 2 million of Beck’s viewers were Birthers? When has Birtherism ever been that popular?
My reasons for not watching him as much as before:
>Too many “studio audience” shows.
>Too many “founding fathers” shows.
Glenn needs to come back to strictly exposing and destroying the Obama and democrat agendas.
The historical facts can be embedded into the shows, but only when they have significance in the topic at hand.
“if hes got a reason why Zero shouldnt have to show his birth certificate, then its a stupid reason”
He’s probably got the same reason as everyone else. Namely that no legal (or otherwise) authority requires it.
Kook much? Or just on the birther thing?
I like Beck and watch him every day, but his show can be difficult to watch and it can get repetative at times, I understand what he is doing, but he needs to make some changes for his own mental health; I think the more he learns about the corruption in DC, the more he wants to know and wants us, his audience to know and it is weighing him down.. in addition he is spending a whole lot of time on history — which IMHO is important but as most of us know history can also make a lot of people’s eyes roll back in their heads out of boredom... that said I can tell I’ve learned a lot from his show, I watched the 1960 movie Sunrise at Campobello last night and picked up on things in there that would have meant nothing to me if not for Beck and the particular history he has been teaching about Woodrow Wilson.
I never watch TV but I do listen to him on radio. I agree about him always being so damn negative. Really I tune a lot of it out because it seems to be a lead in to sell everyone overpriced gold from some ripoff company. If everyone wanted to buy gold eagles the best place to purchase those would be your local coin shop.
Blog pimping kook alert.
Don’t make it more complicated than it is.
Beck’s tv gimmick isn’t a long term act. It can pop some big ratings for a while but that basic act tends to not stand the test of time.
He had his big run - most people don’t ever get anything comparable. His act just gets stale and people get tired of it. It has nothing to do with snubbing any particular fetish group.
Blog-flogging propoganda. Beck’s ratings go up and down, but mostly up.
Looking at this I don't see a big crash... I usually check this site for ratings every month or so and Beck is about where he's been most of the time, he had some special shows that put him over three million, but this is pretty much the range he's been in from day one.
Total crap.

“If a birth certificate were to prove that Obama is not legally qualified to be president, then each and every action he takes, and every word he speaks, will be viewed with different perspectives, and with most people viewing him suspiciously, he might end up being neutered as far as his presidency is concerned.”
There’s a possibility he might end up neutered, but for entirely different reasons. Namely, he’s a bad president.
The problem with sensationalism, which is what 99% of the TV “news” people peddle, is that people get used to it, so then you need to be more sensational to keep the same level of interest, and eventually you’ve got no more sensational stuff to push, and the audience goes elsewhere.
Too many studio audience shows.
>Too many founding fathers shows.
AND I was very disappointed when he mocked (I hate the word birthers) Americans who only want to know if Barry is eligible to be CIC.
I loved him for a while. But need to hear he was wrong to make fun of people who want info. It is not so hard to understand.
And I can't handle anymore audience participation shows. I do so many eye rolls and sighs listening to the people, I think I might actually pull something.
I can't be the only conservative viewer who feels this way, and has left because of it.
In recent shows, Beck has been focusing on historical matters such as the Progressive movement and President Woodrow Wilson’s domestic agenda. This approach may be a turn-off to some viewers, in particular products of government schools in which the teaching of history has diminished over the past few decades.
He has more viewers than all of his competitors combined. Combined.
I’m a bit of a birther myself, but I’m content to let him choose his own battles.
