Glenn Beck has been campaigning for Ted Cruz this week in South Carolina, so he hasn't been able to keep up his radio schedule. He did take a moment to call in on Tuesday to talk about the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.
Beck's co-host Pat Gray couldn't understand why God wouldn't allow Scalia to live on until the election had finished. According to Right Wing Watch, Beck swiftly called the show to explain that God's motivation for taking the Justice had everything to do with Ted Cruz's campaign for president. Evidently, Beck believes Scalia's death will motivate Americans to elect him if they are faced with the haunting reality of a world without the Justice to fight for their liberty.
"I just woke the American people up," Beck said, pretending to be the mind of God. "I took them out of the game show moment and woke enough of them up to say, 'look at how close your liberty is to being lost. You now have lost your liberty. You replace one guy and you now have 5-4 decisions in the other direction. Just with this one guy, you've lost your liberty so you'd better elect somebody that is going to be somebody on [the court] because for the next 30 years, if you don't, the Constitution as you know it [is gone].'"
"The Constitution is hanging by a thread!" he proclaimed, repeating a line he has used on the stump. "That thread has just been cut and the only way that we survive now is if we have a true constitutionalist."

Who are the personages mentioned in your quote?
The movie was a lot of fun, too. Funny, I thought it was stupid when they made a movie from Battleship (”A movie based on a board game?!”), completely forgetting Clue had done it thirty years earlier.
The Clue movie was actually decently good.
Battleship was... one of the soulless husks made when they can do anything they want with special effects and not a thing with anything else.
I really love older movies.
He certainly should, but he won’t.
I understand there is a video with him alledgedly saying this. But in all the articles I've seen (4 so far) there is no verbal transcript of Beck saying this. Not saying that Beck is not that stupid to say this; he is.
I'm just throwing out his DENIAL of this quote.
Thank you.
