I wonder how many people were impressed with GB's lecture from the pulpit today? I wonder how many people listen to him are are appreciative of his good ideas and guidance?

From my personal perspective, I'd trust this man about as far as I could throw him.

Yeah i have to agree with what most of you are posting on this thread,
except for that ANGRY dude that keeps insulting a vast array of people with such volatile hate, dude, chill out, that is no way to discuss matters in an adult forum as such..........

People have a tendency to be confused regarding "messengers." We always want to kill them!!!

ALL of MSM are bought up and may be corrupt, however, this does not negate their entire message. We don't worship the messenger, although most want to.

Truth can come from anywhere, despite the messenger. It is vital to remember this! For often the truth is revealed in all of the "unsaids!"

If we make a political issue out of this, then the chances are: we will be duped.

Look for what resonates with us and then take the necessary steps that one feels is important for you. When all is said and done, it will be our "senses" that will be our life preserver.

After watching these 2 vids & several others;

the fact alone that this guy is taking so much flack from every direction - from the MSM to (anonymous) chatroom posters - tells me he is worth listening to.

Perfect? No.

But he IS the nearest thing to V at the moment.

I'd trust this man about as far as I could throw him.

If you want to sit and listen to the "everything is going to be fine" crowd...go right ahead.

So if I got on there and said my opinion...do i suddenly have and agenda?

If you'd read any of my other posts, you'd realize I'm not from the "everything is going to be fine" crowd. In fact many of my viewpoints have been somewhat accepted as reasonably well educated by our peers on this site.

And no, if you got on there and said your opinion... you don't necessarily have an agenda although you could. But if you flip-flopped on your opinion every month or two, I certainly wouldn't be taking you seriously.

Believe nothing merely because you have been told it.
Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher.
But whatever, after due examination and analysis,
you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings -
that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide.




Believe nothing on the faith of traditions,
even though they have been held in honor
for many generations and in diverse places.
Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it.
Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past.
Do not believe what you yourself have imagined,
persuading yourself that a God inspires you.
Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests.
After examination, believe what you yourself have tested
and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

The reason for "dull you to sleep" reporting, and debates is to place your conscious mind into a catatonic state. Just watch the MSM, while at the same time scanning your own thoughts. You will wander, and that is what the MSM wants you to do.

Now, look at the sets "bells, and whistles" going on behind the different news personalities. I cannot pinpoint what exactly, but they need you in a catatonic waking state to allow a "super highway" to your subconscious. This is where your deep seeded beliefs reside, and this is where the MSM needs to plant subversion.

Glenn Beck is as someone pointed out, a "The Ultimate Wolf In Sheep's Clothing". As with many MSM "figure heads" Mr. Beck's "character" has evolved. There is a mass awakening occurring right now. Mr. Beck is playing the "real patriot" card in an attempt "lull" newly awakening people back into bed.

It is actually a dangerous game for the New World Order. Having to place Glenn "The Real Patriot" Beck out in the open speaking half baked truths, will indeed lull some back to sleep. However, on the same token the reason for the danger is that he can also awaken sleeping people to parts of truth.

All in all, Glenn Beck is a master manipulator, an opinion maker just like he says and FOX is a joke.

Glenn Beck speaks for all the nuts out there, he gives energy to the absurd and credibility to fake beliefs.

I burst out laughing when I heard him essentially say "Hey, I can't prove that FEMA concentration camps exist, but let me tell you all about them anyway".

The FEMA concentration camps are real of course. Its the way they operate that is in question.

If we have a major nationwide outbreak of a super virus you dont this FEMA is prepared for this? Of course they are...or at least better be.

They concentrate the people into a camp. They did it after Katrina. They are concentrated into a giant campsite of trailers.

They ARE concentration camps!

The question is NOT do they exist? The question is what do they exist for?

Glenn Beck speaks for no one but himself. He certainly doesn't speak for me. I speak for me and I try to address every issue I participate in with a healthy mixture of style and logic. Like him or not he is one half of the conversation we often find ourselves in here on ATS...Regardless of that half.


I'm just happy someone is having this conversation.

If Glenn Beck has taught me anything, it's how we can't trust each other anymore. Sad, but true.
There are other things, but they don't stay on topic.

I`m not familiar with him, living in Scotland as I do, however from thoses clips at the top of the post I think he is a wolf in sheep`s clothing and do not trust a word he says. As soon as I saw the fox logo at the bottom I switched of mentally, the only thing I can stomach from fox is the simpsons and even they have become a lot of #e. Think if Glenn was around 60 years ago he could have got a job with the SS Propaganda devision, that and he has dead eyes

Ugh. Why has this clown become something of a folk hero here? Every day another GB thread. Even a blind (or dumb) squirrel finds a nut occasionally, and from watching him a little I have found it to be 95% fluff and garbage, just like any other blowhard pundit. Most of the "good" stuff is still fear-mongering that gets you to tune in for the rest to see what he's going to say while filling the rest of the show with junk. He's such a ratings craving, sheep herding phony it's not even funny. I'm very suspicious of what he's doing, the creepy eye closeup thing pointed out on colbert sent up a red flag for me. Some kind of NLP? I dunno but it's fishy that fox would just allow a subversive show that provides any illumination to air.
