Want to know an easy way to get Glenn Beck riled up? Just accuse him of drinking the “Kool-Aid” for Mitt Romney.
A pro-Newt Gingrich caller — Ray — found that out the hard when when he called into Beck’s radio show on Thursday in an effort to set Beck straight on the 2012 presidential candidate, and to accuse Beck of supporting Romney. Adding to the whole scenario: Ray said he was a huge Beck fan and had every one of Beck’s books, but was now considering throwing them all away. That’s all Beck needed to hear.
Beck quickly reminded Ray that he’s actually a Santorum fan, since he‘s come out several times and said Santorum is the candidate he’d vote for. He then let it fly.
“Are you a Newt Gingrich supporter? You surely are,” Beck responded after Ray said yes, “then throw my books away. I’ve obviously not influenced your life at all. I want you to throw every book I’ve written, throw it away. I mean it Ray. If you haven’t learned what a progressive is, throw them away. You never will.”
Beck repeated himself a few more times, and eventually told Ray he would go to Rays house and throw his books away himself, before then offering to buy Ray’s Beck books back. Watch the explosive, and entertaining, exchange:

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 4:44pmWhile Beck was a self professed dirtbag I watched Newt carry on Reagan‘s legacy in the 90’s. After a year and a half of being a Beckbot, I finally woke up and figured out Glenn Beck is wrong on Newt. I can’t believe he has this much hate for another person. George Soros I understand but Newt. No, he’s really gone too far now. I will never trust another word that vomits out of his mouth. Mr. Beck is a troubled soul and I will continue to pray for him.

Where are the 3 hour shows, attacking Romney?????
Listen to this, you can cut right to the point at 8 minutes and 32 seconds. Glenn Beck is interviewing Andy Andrews talking about the book How Do You KILL 11 MILLION People.
Glenn Beck goes from this book and says that Newt Gingrich is Just as Dangerous. If you are a GlennBot you would not know. If you can think for yourself, you would wonder if Glenn is Drinking again.
Glenn did not say Romney, (A progressive) would be just as dangerous—- NO– NEWT IS JUST AS DANGEROUS as the NAZI’S
are you drinking the Beck Kool-aid? Listen for yourself and then ask youself
Where is this hatred coming from? Romney is a Progressive.
Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Does Beck Know Newt is just as Dangerous as the Nazi’s or is that his OPINION? Glenn never said it was his Opinion.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 5:04pmI fully understand where you are coming from. Beck is paranoid about Newt. I too watched Newt tackle the liberals in the early 90′s. Newt did such a good job that he upset the status quo in the establishment Republican party. He balanced the budget and was successful in getting Clinton to toe the line, so much so, that to this day, Clinton brags about how he balanced the budget and made the economy good (when he actually was dragged kicking and screaming all the way by Newt).
My only conclusion about Beck is that Romney is his man and he doesn’t want to make it known publicly. Why else would he go after Newt as a progressive when Romney is equally progressive as is Santorum and all the rest except for Ron Paul and Michelle Bachmann who is no longer a candidate.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 5:15pmI‘d give up on Newt before I’d give up on Glenn. They’re both human. They both make, have made and will make mistakes. Newt is the smarter of two (saying Newt is smarter than Glenn is no insult to Glenn… Newt is simply brilliant) but, in my opinion, Glenn has better principles (which, coming from me, means I think Glenn is closer to the libertarian ideal than Newt is.)
The good news is that all of these people would be a big improvement over Obama. The bad news is, none of them are ideal. And given the current state of affairs… I really wish we had an ideal candidate.
If people usually get the leaders they deserve, we need to become better people.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 5:55pmI have to agree that Glen can’t get past his hate for Newt gingrich and what he said in the past (IN THE PAST!!!!). Does Glen agree that a person after serving all their prison sentence should be seen as someone who as paid for their crime and should now be allowed to VOTE, a RIGHT not a Privilege (that‘s progressive govt control by O’Reilly) In Newt Gingrich case he says that he as been out of politics for a while and as changed, is someone not allowed to change their views opinions beliefs and learnt from the past. Glen Beck was once at the bottom with drink and as changed but no one else CAN!. In Glen‘s interview with O’Reilly he attcked Newt and said that he supports Santorum but realises that because of money that Romney will more than likely win the nomination, he seemed ok with that, what is Romney? if he isn’t a big business guy that will move in any direction if it promotes is advancement, he as no morale compass and seems to be OK

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 5:55pmI agree that Beck went over the top on that and I‘m sure he’ll regret reacting that way. However in Beck‘s defense I think what sent him off is the guy immediately saying he wanted to throw Glenn’s books away. I mean when you work hard to put several books together trying to show the truth about the world then some guy gets on the phone, proclaims to be a fan then immediately says he wants to throw your books away because you don’t support the same presidential candidate? I think I would be pretty upset to. Glenn has pointed out the reasons behind why he doesn‘t support Newt but if you haven’t watched those past episodes and you‘ve only watch Newt’s recent debate (which was great by the way) then this reaction would seem ridiculous.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 6:03pmI like Beck, I subscribe to GBTV and love it. I have to say that on GBTV, most are Romney supporters. I never see negative stories on Romney, but there are negative stories on the other candidates.
Out of this group of candidates, Newt is the best one. Santorum is 2nd. Paul is 3rd, but would be 1st by a lot if it weren’t for his foreign policy and him being a 911 “truther”.
But yeah, I can see how Ray believes Beck is for Romney by watching GBTV or reading the Blaze. Romney gets very favorable coverage compared to the other candidates. As far as progressives and rinos go, Romney is by far the biggest rino. Only he and obama acctually passed socialized medicine. He should be getting crucified by the right.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 6:15pm@MSNGLENBC = You are taking Romney out of context, clearly you don’t understand what a PROGRESSIVE is. Here, let me make it easy for you, because clearly you don’t know nor care what a progressive is, this is because you are a BIGOT. It’s that easy. This is where the anger and defense comes from. If Romney got elected, for so many Evangelicals, might mean your already shaky faith is just that much more unsupported. Like Tebow, of course God would elect your the perfect Evangelical, you need to get over yourselves and tell the truth. You want to be bigots, that is fine, just say it, I have no argument against that. However, if you are going to try and compare records with a man who engineered socialized medicine long before Romenycare, through pilot programs with companys like Healthways, and tell me he is not a progressive, then you just haven’t done your research. My mother and 500-700 other employ7ees are all losing their job because Newt convinced them that his program would save medicare money and be the way of the future, preventive care. 23 million dollars, 2 buildings and 600 employees jobs lost later, this is the same progressive results we always get. And my mom’s was just one of 16 pilot programs, so I don’t even know the rest. And who is the Arcapita, Sharia Islamic Investor, who is a premiere member on Newts Center for heath Transformation ??

The real problem lies with you, me, and the American people. If you don‘t know what I’m talking about then you probably don’t listen to Glenn that much. He has stated many many times that this country won’t be fixed solely through elections, but by the citizens. Sorry, but that’s the truth.
We should unite on the most important things (things we agree on for the most part) and fix America from the bottom up. Glenn realizes there are people like Drugstore Patriot and Ray the pro-Gingrich caller who won’t agree with him. That’s fine.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 7:06pmQuite right, Drugstore Patriot. Glenn has some strange gut-level hatred for Newt that just doesn’t seem to match the facts. Newt may be a ‘progressive’ in the most technical, literal sense of the word, but to say that there‘s no difference between Newt and Obama’s progressivism is inane. And to have said that to support Newt over Obama is indicative of a racist, that was about as over-the-top irrational as I’ve ever seen Glenn get. Glenn’s been losing me for a looooong time now, and his recent treatment of the Republican presidential contenders has been infuriating. I’m finding I have less and less reason to watch/listen to Glenn when I‘m disagreeing vehemently with so much of what he’s saying.

You are spot on , this is so personal with Beck NOW.
I do know he is really P_i_s_s_e_d that his fans will not listen to HIM !!!!!
First of all, Huckster told us to make up our own miind.
What first broke my spell was his vitriol at first in December and saying: The “establisment has chosen NEWT. That really caught my eye and almost seemed like he had met with some others (like Freedom Works?) and he was adamant his fans listen to him and then the clips OVER and OVER, and no decent praise of NEWT for anything good he had done. THAT WAS A RED FLAG !!!!!
The fans of BECKSTER follow him like a cult and believe him even though the keeps saying to “do your own homework”.
They are in full on panic now, and were in early December when NEWT SOARED to the top of the polls, and EVEYBODY (MSM, MSLSD, CNN, GBTV, FOX) seemed to really dial in NEWT for attacks.
ROMNEY went bombs aways for 2 weeks, and destroyed him with all these ads. Paulie joined in and they left Rick Santorum alone until the last days of IOWA when they realized they had to take on Rick S. Too late. Rick got the surge, perfect timing and he earned it.
Huckter has his own drones now, and they regurgatate and spew out all his facts from his shows. NOTHING of NEWT record of accompisments, only mis-information, just like MSLSD does..

Santorum voted for H J Res 47 – Debt Limit Increase Resolution – Key Vote .
He flip flopped on gun rights, voting against S 1805 – Firearms Manufacturers Protection Bill.
Santorum also voted for the Military Commissions Act of 2006 — the predecessor to the now infamous NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012) — which:
Strips the right of detainees to habeas corpus (the traditional right of detainees to challenge their detention);
Gives the US President the power to detain indefinitely anyone—US or foreign nationals, from within the US, and from abroad—it deems to have provided material support to anti-US hostilities, and even use secret and coerced evidence (i.e. through use of torture) to try detainees who will be held in secret US military prisons;
Gives US officials immunity from prosecution for torturing detainees that were captured before the end of 2005 by US military and CIA.

I guess it is…..but really as much as i disagree with him on his choice for president, and smearing of Ron Paul you have to give him credit for waking people up….Seriously the man has done something great for this country. If there were no Beck people would be off in their own little clicks talking about how messed up things are with their friends,,,,but there would be no national attention…..Heck.. it was Becks own teachings that lead me to realize what an important candidate Ron Paul is. It was Becks own teachings that got me to the point to where i could disagree with him. I am without a doubt certain Ron Paul’s supporters would not be as many or as strong as they are now without Glenn……So say what you will about him….I say he is a good man and did something great and will continue to do great things…..He just sucks at seeing who is right for president….

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 12:30amI’m not a fan of Glenn, but I am even less of a fan of Newt. The man is a repeat adulterer, which that in and of itself is a huge moral flaw easily sufficient enough to deny him the presidency. I’m all for forgiving, but if a man has a history of not even being able to be loyal to his wife, how in the world can we expect him to stay loyal to his oath of office? If we elect this man, then we become just as hypocritical as the democrats who didn’t care that Clinton cheated on his wife while in office. Lets not forget that while condemning Clinton for his affair, Newt himself was having one, and then he had the arrogance to say in a recent interview that his affair during the Clinton scandal was somehow less reprehensible than the one he was having at the same time. So not only is he an adultere, but a hypocrite, lier, and just about every other sin that should cause an honest man to shake at even the idea the man may even get close to the presidency.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 1:01amGlenn is blinded by his zeal for small government, and he is right that we are broke. The answer is what Newt has proposed which is to become efficient first then talk about cuts. There has to be a draw down of the government not a hatchet man. Glenn has this progressive on the brain disease, but you have to remember his religion says that the U.S. is special. I think it is special but not for the same reasons the founding fathers were smart enough to realize that they had no idea what was to come.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 1:42amThe Rise and Fall of Glenn Beck. It has been fascinating to watch. “What do you mean?”, you say, “Glenn’s built his own empire!” Really? GBTV? Incessant fear-mongering, Newt-bashing, and pretending not to support Mitt Romney? “Restoring Love?” Plenty of love in my house Glenn. I miss the good ol’ days of just the plain old “Glenn Beck Program” with Moron Trivia, Clothesline Friday. I loved the radio program for years, but, with all the constant dumping on of Newt lately, I just listen to Laura Ingraham. Her show’s been very consistent over the years. She hasn’t felt the need to become meglomaniacal, which Beck seems to have done. ElRushbo? Solid as a rock. Beck? Not so much. In five years, Glenn Beck will be all but forgotten. You heard it here first. Also, Beck, if you’re copying this transmission, the newest radio theme-song is horrendous. I know you like to freshen it up every year, but this latest installment is painful to listen to. Just a head’s-up.

It’s interesting how some people seem to not understand what Santorum actually said about the NDAA, so here’s a clip of him talking about it, and nowhere does he condemn this insane law. In fact he dances around the entire point… being that the 6th amendment is meaningless under the NDAA
Notice how he fails to mention that you have no constitutional right to a TRIAL under the NDAA.

rick santorum on citizens not having habeas corpus through the NDAA –
my first reaction was thats, thats a very bad idea, every citizen should have that right irrespective of what their conduct is. thats part of the rights of being a citizen. i do agree that if you are not a citizen of this country and you are picked up in armed insurrection or trying to destroy this country that you can in fact be detained, and be detained indefinitely without the right to a lawyer or a habeas corpus petition and i would detain them at getmo. thats my position…..heres how i would inforce the NDAA and make sure as president we would make it clear, from a statute prospective if necessary, that if you‘re a citizen and you’re detained because you are suspected of, of terrorist activity against the unites states of america that you will have a right to a lawyer, that lawyer will be able to petition a federal judge, that judge will hear that case and be able to decide based upon the preponderance of the evidence weather the, uh, weather that person should be continued to be detained. and you would still have the right to, to have those appeals and go through that process. thats the way it should be and thats what i would enforce.

Did you notice how he danced around the whole 6th amendment, and never actually clearly admitted that you have no RIGHT to a trial under the NDAA?
Keep in mind the right to a jury was placed in he Bil of Rights for a very good reason, as it serves as a protection from an out of control state, and without it…we are at the mercy of a corrupted system with no hope of an independent mindset that may quite well see such a matter in an entirely different light than the powers that be. Jury trials are essential as a power check, and the NDAA spits on this right.
Santorum also backed the Patriot Act, which is anything but Patriotic, as that dung heap brought us the DHS’s beloved TSA, who are now showing up at Social Security offices and Sporting events armed with automatic weapons.
Make no mistake about it, Santorum is all in when in comes to the Police State we are marching towards, and there is no way in hell I‘ll give my vote to someone who puts the tools needed in place for the NWO’s goal of oppression.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 3:21pm@RDJones: What part of this “if we’re going to do this, let’s do it smartly” isn’t progressive? That was how Newt started almost every answer when Beck interviewed him. Quite frankly, for someone that calls himself a conservative, I was shocked. “if we’re going to provide welfare for people, let’s do it with welfare to work programs”. Beck‘s point is that the government shouldn’t be providing welfare of any kind. We should be helping each other when we’re in need.
That‘s the reason for Beck’s constant attacks on Newt. Newt walks around being “the smartest guy” in the room and he’s only slightly better than the left. He believes he has all the answers to all the problems and he’s going to fix everything. Sounds just like a progressive to me.

Posted on January 22, 2012 at 12:21pmWow, sure are a lot of Beck haters here today. Media Matters really must have got the word out. Newt praised Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, and Andrew Jackson. Newt calls himself a progressive and a real politic Wilsonian, states that the four essential human freedoms (that FDR spoke of, half of which are in the Soviet Constitution) still ring true. Wilson’s foriegn policies got us into WWI and the League of Nations (UN), and negotiated the Treaty of Versailles that set us up for WWII. Teddy Roosevelt established the Progressive Party and the hundred year plan, which nobama just celebrated the anniversary of. Andrew Jackson was all about Manifest Destiny and broke every treaty with the American Indian and put them on the Trail of Tears, killing thousands.

Do you really think Newt’s record supports the notion that he understands the founders?
Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated.
Thomas Jefferson
“If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the general welfare, the government is no longer a limited one possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one subject to particular exceptions.” -James Madison
With respect to the two words “general welfare,” I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators. — James Madison, letter to James Robertson
The only one with the record to prove he gets this… is Ron Paul.

Posted on January 19, 2012 at 4:33pmOk… This seals the deal. Beck has lost it in regard to this 2012 GOP Primary. His hatred for Newt is out of control. While bashing Newt for what he “deems” are progressive statements that aren’t backed up by nearly as radical progressive actions by Newt, Beck has given Newt almost ZERO credit for Newt leading the charge to take back the House from the Dems in the 1990′s (after 40 years of Dem control), balancing the budget for 4 years, shrinking welfare, boldly speaking the truth about Obama and the middle east, and being argubaly one of the top 5 – 10 effective explainers of conservativism in our lifetime. Beck would have you believe that Newt is the embodiment of what would destroy the country. He is clearly throwing the baby out with the dirty bath water that he believes surrounds Newt and can’t realize that he is doing so.
Beck gave some good facts, but it is clear that he no longer has the capacity to be objective in matters regarding Newt. When Beck starts talking about Newt, just turn him off for 20 mins and come back later. I hate to say it, but he can’t be trusted on the topic.
Newt is the only candidate who has the ability to articulately and boldly speak the truth about the dangers of liberalism, but Beck would rather talk about who is Newt’s favorite president. What a waste of air time. I like you Beck, but come back to us… you are drifting.

If I have a broken machine I want a mechanic that knows precisely how the machine works – inside and out – to fix it. Gingrich knows how our government works – really, really works – from the inside. I want the Socialist Machine along with all it’s tendrils dismantled. Newt knows how the American Machine is intended to work. He helped make it work in the past. He’s the man that can actually restore America and right this ship starting on day one. That’s the man I want as president this time out.

To accuse Glenn of backing Romney (which he has NEVER done) because of his religion is laughable and disgusting.

Beck and his side kicks and his fill ins have pointed out things they like about certain candidates, as well as the things they do not like about them. Example; he often points out that Ron Paul would make a great Secretary of the Treasury, and that he loves many of his fiscal policy views. That in no way means he is rooting for Paul as much as he has said he is not. He has said things he likes about Romney as well, but mostly the things that he does not. I don’t ASSUME that is code that he means he is backing Romney. As stated above that word ‘assume’ means something. So, I listen to Beck’s show daily as well as others.

If there was an inkling of racism in either, it never showed. Now, growing up in the South, yes I met a lot of racist Democrats. In fact even at my older age I have met a large number of idiotic racist Democrats having travelled in all but thirteen states. Many openly admit it upon learning that I am from Alabama. They are stupid enough to assume that I am one of them. Dad voted for Goldwater but LBJ won. He certainly showed his true colors after signing the civil rights legislation making his now infamous statement about how he would have the “N words” voting Democrat for the next 200 years.
