Glenn Beck told his audience on Monday that the following morning on his radio program, he will reveal the name of a Republican lawmaker who said anyone who stands with FreedomWorks or the Senate Conservatives Fund is a “traitor” to the Senate.

Beck had Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) on the program, and invited the senator to comment on the announcement, but the senator declined.

From what I have learned about Hannity from listening to him, look for Freedom Works to go.

Has McConnell’s office deigned to respond to this?

Hmmmm...”traitor” is a bit of a harsh word from a mush mouth like McConnell. Not defending him, but it sure doesn’t sound like his usual language, even when he’s out buddying up to Reid.

Mitch is just there for the Ruth’s Chris certificates .

Now that right there is funny.

The problem for Mitch is, he doesn't get any certificates if he can't pronounce "Ruth's Chris."

I think the dilemma would be McConnell’s on choosing to appear—he is a legitimate newsmaker based on his position—and with a primary fight, he’ll continue to accept Hannity’s invites.

He named McConnell?

How long until Matt Bevin's ad comes out? It writes itself!

This Texan has already contacted Cornyn’s office to inform him that I will work diligently to defeat him in the primary and vote democrat if he survives. My sense now is he will not make it through the primary process.

The way I heard it, source was not someone considered “friend of show”, and Mike Lee didn’t dispute it. Lee was in the room and confirmed it was said but didn’t want to name this person.

The only problem I see with exposing McConnell is there is now nothing to stop him from going all in with Reid...

Not that he wouldn’t eventually do that anyway.

In one way or another they are all TRAITORS for failure to “ Defend” the Constitution of the United States. All of them compromise their oath of office almost before its echo dies in the halls of congress.

I donated to the Senate Conservatives Fund.

I’m a traitor in McConnell’s mind.

Excellent.

No downside to exposing them. Allows us to know who these folks really are.
