Whether it is crying on cue or making up stuff about a politician, Glenn Beck knows one thing. To stay in the spotlight you need to be part Jerry Springer, part circus performer, and part salesman.
Glenn Beck says he might be going blind. The Fox News host told an audience in Salt Lake City Saturday that he’s been having trouble focusing his eyes, and a doctor said he has macular dystrophy. Prognosis unclear.
I used to think Beck had some decent ideas (his last decent book was An Inconvenient Book: Real Solutions to the World’s Biggest Problems
Now, of course, he has just gone off the deep end, trying to create a mob mentality that will spend more time finger pointing than they will looking for ideas.
I fully expect Beck to come up with “My eyes are going because they can’t stand to see America being destroyed.” or something to that effect. If he really is/does lose his eyesight, that would be unfortunate, even for someone that spends most of his time wishing demise on other people.
In the end Beck is not unlike every other person in that spotlight. They discovered it is much easier to shoot at others than it is to look for solutions. If the other camp doesn’t have enough dirt on it…just make crap up – most people will never look for facts anyway.
I think adults during my childhood were right. It is too much television – regardless of which side of the screen you are on. At least that is the way I see it…
Fine, I suppose this is where you look for some witty insights to my mind. A "bio" of sorts. Here is the deal... I ride motorcycles, smoke cigars, golf, kayak, fly, race my car through the mountains, write (a lot), and travel extensively. I am almost old enough not to care what other people think about me...almost. ~Godfadr
