Forgive me for saying this, but you sound like a tool. You are not hearing what Glenn is saying, you are loving Glenn.

I can’t say whether or not I love Glenn but I’m guessing I would not because I have a rational mind and when he calls a black man a racist, claims that OnStar is spying on you, that AmeriCorps is a government plot to put an armed secret police force on the ground in the US with a budget bigger than the Pentagon, when he puts Vapo-Rub under his eyes to make him cry for people like you… well, my rational mind won’t accept it.

It’s funny, the only person I know (and this is a true fact) who listens to Glenn Beck and believes him, the ONLY person… is a recovering cocaine addict. He must have special meaning to addicts, and if he helps you stay straight, that’s great.

Glenn Beck is a Cleon Skousen brand Mormon, which means that he’s to the right of the John Birch Society and he believes that the Mormon cult will someday control the US government. Maybe you believe that, too, but I think it’s a load of hooey. I guess that theocracy BS is OK for some of you, but I can’t abide by it because I actually believe in the First Amendment.

One thing I will say, however, is that the Mormons are dangerously close to losing their tax exemption because of their political activities, notably blocking civil rights of LGBTs. Step carefully, because more and more of us know that the “Jesus Christ” in the Mormons’ preferred name is fraudulent. Just like their leading front man Glenn Beck.

I was happily reading along thinking, ‘ha ha, this is funny, making fun of Glenn Beck’ as it usually is (as easy as target as he is) and I thought that was it. Then I went to youtube to view the other videos and they’re GLENN BECK’S own videos on Glenn Beck’s own youtube page!! This is for real. Good God in heaven.

You see, I am that recovering heroin addict in Glenn’s program. I didn’t start using heroin after 9/11- though I did use it that fateful day. I had been an addict for several years prior.

I am an independent thinking artist, brother, uncle, son, and friend to many. While I was once 120 pounds of bone and skin with track marks up my arms- today I love life. Not because of Glenn Beck, or even his book. In fact, I have been clean and sober for 6 years- because of family, friends, God, and making new choices in life.

Most people who know me think I am liberal. And maybe I am- but not the type of liberalism that I see today- the hateful, spiteful, and quite frankly soulless liberalism. I am a Libertarian- can’t stand Republicans or Democrats.

I have gotten to know Glenn behind the scenes and I will say he is a “freak of nature” in the media and entertainment world. There are things that the viewers will never know- and that is ok. But it is those exact things that will elevate truth to the top.

We all can disagree about policies, politics, and what style of music we listen to. But when we start tearing people down over things we all share- love, pain, redemption, forgiveness, and friendship- we all lose.

Backstage at Glenn’s show there were people of all backgrounds. I, myself, was even surprised at how many liberal friends Glenn actually has- lol. Gay, straight, black, white, artists, musicians- we all were there together for one reason and only one reason- to experience something that for once, wasn’t about left or right.

I am not proud of my past- but today I use my story to help others who suffer with the exact thing that almost left me for dead. If that can help just one person then that is all I can hope for.
Remember- we can tear each other down and become part of the problem, or build each other up.
Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday.
