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 have been thinking about getting back with the republican party in Colorado. A supposed grass roots person is now the republican leader so if he can keep Cristie’s big fat nose out of Colorado elections and really is a conservative he may have my support.

“Until then, let me talk about Tom Cotton, as a means to bring back the GOP to those of us, who want it back.”

Much luck. The results of the last election and the subsequent back stabbing should show how RINOs won’t change their spots.

When approximately fifty people, all approximately as rich as Donald Trump, announce that they are founding an alternative party to the Republican Party, it will be time to take the demise of the Republican Party seriously. As things stand, the Republican Party is based on the old, old, WASP money of the Northeast, with a despised insurgent, Christian, conservative, pro-life wing.

The Democrats are financed BY THE TAXPAYERS—laundering the money through the public-sector unions, the trial lawyers, the Communists, the Muslim Brotherhood, George Soros, and Wall Street.

He can talk with an voice more sincere than Bill Clinton’s while telling you something only for his own betterment.

(while sobbing) “Pleeease people. I know these things. You will be out in the streets if you don’t listen to me...Buy Goldline”

I don’t think he is the only one leaving that party. Average folks like me have left. I was Republican since 1959 and left last year.

He should have stopped contributing to the Republican party L O N G ago! They were taking his money and using it against conservatives. I only contribute to individual conservative Republican campaigns around the country. If you’re sending money to the RNC, you might as well be sending it to the DNC.

“Beck seems to get odder by the day. I’m not sure what he really believes anymore.”

I’m not sure if it’s the alcoholism, bipolar, or wasn’t he thinking he was being poisoned at one time? Something has interfered with his neurons. He is entertaining, but a little Glenn goes a long way.

True that...he was blaming Republicans equally for Van Jones and the Obama administration’s nefarious deeds in the early part of the regime.

It’s not about RINO’s changing their spots...its about out numbering them...or having a conservative as nominee for President. It’s never been about Lindsey Graham or John McCain or Olympia Snowe coming around....never ever ever ever about that.

Seriously, I think in the past he’s talked about bipolar or some issue he has. I just wonder if he has slipped sometimes and gone off meds for awhile.

And he’s in a state where the party at least, locally, state-wise, is doing well. So, I’d tend to disagree with him in this case.

Some people judge everything just nationally or on who is the president. Yes, Republicans in the Senate and to a lesser extent, the House have been disappointing.

I can’t understand how Beck succeeds or makes any money.

He is as crazy as an outhouse rat.

Apparently Obama doesn’t have all the crazies on his team.
