"Buy a subscription to my $9.99 a month channel to find out what will happen that will adversely affect your life and the lives of all those whom you love from this day forward". Rubes rush to subscribe to find out, Glenn doesn't deliver. What's that saying about "fools and their money"?...

Mormon saying the end was near. Apparently he warned his listeners before that if he ever quoted the Book of Mormon then that is when you know bad times are here.

Wherever happened to the boy who cried wolf theory? You would think at some point people would finally call bullshit, but no, day in day out Glenn Beck is wrong. Yet people keep listening & throwing money at him.

I keep hoping they will build their little commune & just go away, but that doesn't seem to be happening either.
