Glenn Beck Loves Glenn Beck And You Can Too
The only thing Glenn Beck loves more than money is Glenn Beck. Here are some samples from Media Matters.
Beck introduced a Beck-sanctioned clergy group that he claimed represented “180 million people,” repeatedly associated himself with Martin Luther King Jr., made outlandish claims about the impact of the events, and was praised as “one of America’s most trusted and honored citizens.”
Do you think Glenn Beck is one of the most trusted and honored citizens? Now Beck claims that he has created a group of clergy that he controls.
The Black Robe Regiment is back again today. These 240 men and women of all faiths are standing here today. … These 240 men and women from all faiths represent thousands of clergy that we couldn’t fit into this area that are amongst you now — thousands that have come here to the Mall to stand with America and God. And those thousands that are here represent 180 million people.
The “Black Robe Regiment”? Whoa…. that sounds kinda scary. Beck then goes on to compare himself to Martin Luther King.
I can relate to Martin Luther King probably the most because we haven’t carved him in marble yet.
and…
As Martin Luther King said, ‘I don’t know if I’ll be there when we reach the promised land, I don’t know how long it’s going to take, but we are going to reach the promised land, or at least the edges of the Promised Land.’
This man is delusional and so are his guests. Rev C.L. Jackson said this about Beck.
God brought us here through this bright young — I call him — servant of God, son of God, Glenn Beck. … God sent his son to this Earth so that we could all gather. And I think that’s the dream and the vision of Glenn Beck.
I can hardly wait to see all of the good video gold on The Daily Show.
PHIL: “This man is delusional and so are his guests. “>>

Pretty much. Note:
“On page 2 of his book “The Real America” Glenn Beck admits to being a borderline schizophrenic. Allegedly, many of his former co-workers say he admitted to taking medication for mental illness which he then stopped taking because he said he couldn’t function.”

His mother and brother committed suicide so it’s likely this mental instability runs in the family.
And Rev. C.L. Jackson called him “son of God”? Whoa. That’s big Christian code word for Jesus/God. Incredible.

Funny story about Martin Luther King Jr’s statue. The MLK monument is currently under construction in DC right now… complete with a statue. The problem was that the designer is Chinese. The design itself is a bit reminiscent of a scary communist dictator statues plus the marble is WAY too expensive — but they’re making the statue anyway. Who wants to bet Beck will complain about this when it’s finished?
