The Glenn Beck Christmas Special Preview You’ll Want to See

Nov. 27, 2012 10:19am Billy Hallowell

With Christmas just around the corner, Glenn Beck is planning a special Christmas program. But rather than having his staff put it together, the host has taken a different route. Beck has asked his son, Raphe, and his friend, Bowan — two eight-year-olds — to assemble and direct the holiday show.

“So, you’re going to need to build a set and you would have to find sheep and a camel,” Beck tells the boys in a preview clip.

Raphe and Bowan seem completely unfazed by the prospect of putting together the manger and securing the animals. Their biggest concern? How they will rent a car to pick up what’s needed for the show.

“Wait, how are we going to rent a car — and we don’t even have our driver’s licenses,” Raphe proclaims.

“We’re both 16 put together. Let’s just act like we’re 16,” Bowan responds, referring to the fact that, if you add their ages together, they qualify to legally drive.

“You step on the pedal and I’ll drive,” Beck’s son responds after hearing Bowan’s rationale.

After the television host laughs at their dialogue, he then asks the boys what they need to get the job done. Their list: snacks, a director’s chair, a director’s hat and a megaphone.

Glenn, the Holiday show WAS WONDERFUL! I LOVED it! I have seen Christmas special after Christmas special, and many of them, since I am over half a hundred, and yours, by FAR, is the best one, ever. I LOVED it! It was REAL, heartfelt, precious, beautiful, honest, and completely reverent. I , until tonight, I have NEVER cried while watching a Christmas Special. Yes, I got tears tonight. Thanks for the heart-nudge. Tell the kids and all who participated, including Tonya, I said THANK YOU! –It ROCKED! The little angels were SO precious, as were the Wise men, the Case in general. :) Thank you ALL!

Only $99.99 for tickets to watch Glenn cry on stage. I remember when Glenn was funny. Now he is nothing more then a sell out and you I don’t care. People should be able to make as much as they want. I just don’t have to pay for it.

  Perhaps, you are not understanding my prior post, I mean with your public school education and all.
  
  I said Glenn will charge for this and he will cry on stage, I don’t plan on paying to see him. He can make as much money as he wants, good for him. I just will not pay for anything he does. I also said I remember when he was funny.
  
  Where am I crying about him making his way to the top? If he has fans that are willing to pay, great. I was one of them, then I woke up and would rather have the money in my pocket then my money in his pocket.
  
  I don’t pay to see Bon Jovi either, I don’t care what he charges his fans.
  
  There is an old saying “Silence is golden, so go make yourself rich”. So go make yourself rich. Now I will sit back and take the insults.

Glenn please give U.S. the gift of truth.

If God, ‘unalienable’ rights and our Constitution matter to you, then how do you justify extolling religious and patriotic principles, while hypocritically condoning the moral relativism of ignoring Article 2, Section 1, of our Constitution, resulting in an ineligible usurper as President?

Obama is not a ‘natural born citizen’ deductively defined and required for eligibility by Art 2, Sec 1, as one born in America to TWO American parents!*

Glenn why mock patriots for respecting the Constitution? Why refuse to acknowledge the irrefutable facts uncovered by law enforcement investigators about Obama’s fraudulent altered birth certificate, selective service registration and stolen social security number?

Main stream media apparently profits more by biased partial reporting and omission, than truth. Even conservative commentators like Glenn, Rush, Sean and O’Lielly are similarly complicit. Do the owners harbor ulterior motives? Public ignorance is a golden goose to liars preying on sheeple.

America is slipping towards an abyss of socialism compounded by insurmountable debt. It’s time to learn the truth.

Take back control. Vote with your dollar! Boycott businesses who’s advertising pays for media lies. Ask Congress not certify an ineligible elector’s choice. Challenge vote fraud. Pass voter photo id laws.

  You are mistaken, sir. Under the laws of our great nation anyone who is born here enjoys the status of a natural born citizen and may one day run for the office of President. There was some dispute over this issue in the first century after the passage of our Constitution, but the Supreme Court finally examined the issue in 1898. They found that it was the policy under the laws of England at the time of our founding, with which the founding fathers would surely have been familiar, that natural birth was dependent only upon place of birth, not upon parentage. Since our founders nowhere in the Constitution or anywhere else wrote any article or statute changing this standard, they concluded that it remained in effect under the Constitution and up to the present day.

  I assure you, I have no desire to provoke argument or disruption. If you were to research this subject thoroughly with the assistance of an educated person who has the ability to distinguish between reliable and unreliable sources of information, you would surely discover that it is teapartyconservatism, not I, who is posting false and misleading comments.

Will the 3 wise men bring $129 jeans, survivalist food for 100 and gold that some poor schmuck paid way too much for because Glenn said it’s a good investment?

This was so cute, but it was more it was the innocence the way a kid has honesty. Something about this struck my heart, maybe because I have boys and grandboys. I liked how the drawings were included in there thought process, very well done.

Can’t wait to see this special. The genuine innocense of these two young men will make a delightful insight into the minds of children at Christmas. This interview was great viewing.

Glad for your success Glen; merry christmas to you and yours
we won’t be celebrating it this year; our car lot closed; and I am now laid off for 2 months; and they tell me the UI ends at the end of December; since I take Dilantin for seizures; I can’t get a CDL now; so no driver jobs. I’m 59; so the kids get the jobs for min. wage;and the qualified people like us; can’t support our families. I am lucky; we paid off our little home and our older cars; how people are surviving that have all this debt is earth shattering to me.
and people voted once again for mediocrity…rather insane what this once great country has become.
my wife is ill; so it’s important to take care of her; we’ve been married now for 24 years and we have each other this year; and that’s a good thing.
a lot of people don’t have that blessing.
my daughter and her family are doing great and I am proud of that fact…there’s always a rainbow somewhere when it rains.
So this year; we’ll watch the parades; sing the songs; and light the immortal fake tree we’ve kept all these years; and remember..the good days I fear we’ve all seem the last of that
I feel this song is appropriate now for the season…lets hope it changes; for
hope is all we have left
Merry Christmas and God Bless

  I hear you are having a tough time and I am sorry. I still envy you though, your sweetheart is with you, mine has been gone since December 2006. No Christmas since has been the same. The story of peace on earth through Christ seems far away, but you and I have the gift of hope. Hope that more will come to worship the greatest Gift ever given to men, our Saviour, and that this is not the end, eternity is ahead for us. That hope gives peace-no matter what happens, we will be OK if we remain faithfull to our beliefs. Glenn quoted a song from the Mormon hymnal recently, I know it well, have sung it all my life and it comforts me. it is called “Come, Come ye Saints”, at the end of each stanza are the words “all is well, all is well.You are so blessed to own your home and have no debt-in my eyes you have much to celebrate, so I say to you Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.

  I am in the same boat, My wife and I do have our health to a point, she does have heart problems. We have the kids, they are early teens. We both lost good (not great) jobs and have been hurting for the past 2 years. We are losing our home as well.
  
  All the best to you both and we will all get through this.

  My prayers go out to each of you. It’s very sad for me to hear of people hurting. Even though I do not know any of you. My husband and I have each other- married 19 years this month. And it’s not just a marriage that you stay in out of fear of damaging the children or suffering financially because of it. We really love each other and I feel so blessed. But, at the end of 2008 through 2010 we were hit pretty hard by the economy. We are thankful that we were able to sell our house for 30K less than what it was worth, because at least are credit didn’t take too big of a hit. Husband was out of work for 6-months and we depleted our entire savings just to stay above water. We ended up having to sell every stitch of furniture and the entire family, pets too, had to live in a 24 ft RV for 6-mths and this was in WA state where it rains at least 3 days out the week. But it made us stronger as a family. We are still not where we were before all of this started, but little by little we have managed to survive and even prepare for if things get any worse. Our health is not too bad and we are greatful for that. I wish many blessings to all who are struggling- Gob bless

  What Madison Ave. hasn’t bastardized Christmas enough. It would be nice if people would just let Christmas stand on its own. We don’t need GB’s interpretation or lame attempt at giving it some special meaning.

  skimmer57 I thought you supported paying workers a “livable wage” in the U.S. You are the type to cry out for Union workers to make more, why not people Glenn uses to make garments in the U.S. Welcome to the new pricing structure. Why do you think manufacturers go overseas. It is cheaper to make. In the U.S. if you are using U.S products you pay more because you have to purchase from union based manufacturers. Something tells me you never passed Economics in college or high school.
