    I think he's nothing more than an opportunist who consistently illustrates that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

    NO, I do not. I think he is the genuine deal. I have been watching him since he first started with CNN so maybe that's why I feel that way. I saw him before he became so political. I watched the progression of his awareness of the issues affecting us in the government. He wasn't always as he is now. He used to have a show where he interviewed all kinds of people and did lots of different things. But as he became aware of the insanity of the elections, the president's choices for cabinet and just all the shenanigans in both parties, he started to become alarmed. T his led him to start digging. That digging is what made Soros tell CNN to pay out his contract. Glenn was just getting a whiff in the wind that Obama might be a socialist. Then "poof" his contract was bought out.

    Then when he started on Fox 3 months later he continued some of the same format, but not as much. But eventually this Administration gave him fodder to look into and the more he dug, the worst it got. He couldn't leave it alone because it was so shocking and you know the rest.......what he does now. But that's how it all led up to it.

    I liked him back at CNN Headline news and miss his lighter side when he would just have different folks and cover different things and the topics weren't so heavy.

    But sticking our heads in the sand isn't the answer either. It's hard on him to have to continue to be the modern day Elliot Nest, but no one else will do it and I admire him for sticking to his principles when it would just be easier to forget it all and return to his old format. But somebody has to blow the whistle on this corrupt administration because the State Run Media certainly will not.

    So, to answer your question.....NO, I don't think he is crazy because I've watched him from the beginning and know what he's about before the crazy left wing loons started lying about him and making him out to be some kind of nutjob. Granted, the topics alone are crazy but he's not crazy......he is just uncovering and exposing 'crazy" in our government and some people don't know how to separate who he is from the topic that he is covering.

    we've a morbid interest while it includes witnessing the insane. Like looking on the inmates of a psychological wellbeing middle. Beck and Jones are psychological sufferers working for mayor of Bedlam, and we watch and vote.

    If you want to remain the United States of America, you had better start paying attention to what Beck says.

    I don't watch him all that much. I hardly would call him crazy, he seems to be very much on top of his game(lets remember how his investigations have help to rid our WH of at least 2 radicals) with soaring ratings on the #1 news channel in America and the author of a book that just debuted at # 1 on the Times best seller list in 3 separate catagories- that is the first time any author ever accomplished that. I'd say he's crazy like a fox( no pun intended)

    I do not think Glenn Beck is crazy. I believe Glenn Beck, like Kurt Vonnegut, writes and reports on the "satiracal" and the "absurd".

    I don't think he is crazy.

    I think he is playing in a competitive field where he has to make wilder unsubstantiated accusations against the President than any of the other right wing pundits in order to draw his audience. I'm sure he doesn't believe that President Obama hates white people, as he said, since he knows that the President's mother was white and the President is therefore half white himself.

    He has also accused the President of secretly being a nazi because he approved continuing bailouts of faltering industries. Yet he didn't accuse Pres. Bush, who did the exact same thing, of being a nazi. That is completely unreasonable, which could be called crazy.

    He says things that are crazy, but I'm sure he knows that they are false. It's the people who believe him that worry me.

    Yes, I think he's nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake. Mr. Bipolar without question. Even if he's putting on all that entertainment we see he's got to be loony-tunes if he can turn on the waterworks anytime he pleases.
