An Open Letter To Glenn Beck
USA Transnational Report ^ | January 23, 2016 | Andrea Shea King

Posted on 01/23/2016 3:04:29 PM PST by Randall_S

Dear Glenn,

I've been with you since 9-12. I've traveled from Florida to participate in your Restoring Honor event in DC. Your Restoring Love event in Dallas.

I've been a paid subscriber to The Blaze TV since you established it (and stuck with it even though I was keenly disappointed when you ended REAL NEWS and replaced it with Goth Girl, who mirror images Megyn Kelly, another snark queen).

I've been among your biggest fans for years, but over time I've lost that lovin' feeling, and haven't watched or listened to you as much, finding your views and mine increasingly going separate ways.

Glenn, I've been a national speaker across the country on several tours with the Tea Party Express, so you can't say I haven't been in the Tea Party tent. But when you brought teddy bears and whatever to border illegals, it was a serious turn off for me. I get that you were attempting to show Christian love, but I believed it was a big mistake.

Yet... I continued to give you the benefit of the doubt, and supported your efforts by continuing my BLAZE subscription, giving you $10 a month out of loyalty for all you've undertaken in the past to educate and inform and stand up against the headwinds produced in large measure by the GOP establishment.

But now..

After that abhorrent piece in NRO, seeing you join with the insufferable GOP establishment "leading lights" who deign to tell Americans why 45% (latest Zogby poll) are "stupidly" following Trump, well… that has sealed the deal for me. After debating for months about canceling my subscription, your involvement in this is what did it.

Sorry Glenn. It's not that we disagree about our choice of candidates. It's that you've thrown in with inside-the-beltway establishment snobs. I don't even know you anymore.

You'll have to peddle your views elsewhere. I'm done.

Glen Beck is fruitcake.

Apologies to the Collins Street bakery and real fruit cakes

Darn near everyone here knows Beck is a loon, but when he endorses Crus about 30% of them will now say he’s brilliant.

But he’s still a loon.

I also remeber his deplorable behavior at the Stop Iran Rally in DC. This guy is poison and, quite frankly, a trojan horse.

Yeah, that’s what I’m waiting for. Same thing with Palin, a lot of people like her but with her endorsement of Trump she now isn’t a conservative to some.

I distrusted Beck since he stabbed Andrew Breitbart in the back

I’m a very sexist woman. I don’t trust overly emotional men.

It has been interesting reading the bile laced tirades, void of logic an reason, published by “Conservatives” in NRO.

Odd how the same “Conservatives” that had no problem pimping McCain in the 2008 Primaries, and Romney in 2012 Primaries, now want to posture as the “Guardians of Conservative Purity” in 2016.

I have to admit, I like Cruz (and Trump as well), but this acceptance of Beck’s endorsement mystifies me. Beck’s past behavior fairly evidences instability.

When Glenn tried to get Cliven Bundy to say he was a “Sovereign Citizen”, when Glenn knew that was a code word used by the FBI to declare someone a terrorist, I just pulled the plug completely.

I hate to see it, but the Open Letter is correct. The entire Blaze Network is forced to parrot him. Doc Thompson may be an exception.

Was nice while it lasted.
