Via Mediaite: The prospect of Joe Biden running for president befuddled Glenn Beck on CNN tonight and brought him to uncontrollable laughter. Don Lemon asked Beck about the prospect of Biden running for president. Beck rolled his eyes and said “Really?!” several times. He found himself at a loss for words and, despite Lemon pointing to Biden’s track record, said …

Via Right Wing Watch: Glenn Beck brought right-wing pseudo-historian David Barton onto his television program last week so that he could deliver another one of his “history” lessons to Beck’s audience about how the Founding Fathers took all of the rights guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights straight out of the Bible, specifically Genesis 1-8.  …

The Glenn Beck Show announced yesterday that they are sick of Donald Trump and will no longer mention his name. We’ll see how long that lasts.

Right Wing Watch has the quote: “Think of the people who won’t do floral arrangements for gay weddings. Think about the people who are bakers. Now there’s another one with a DJ. They just say, ‘I don’t want to participate.’ That’s what Lot was saying, we don’t want to participate. And in exchange for not participating, I’ll give you something …

Rick Santorum called into Glenn Beck’s show today to declare that as president he will not enforce a SCOTUS ruling on same-sex marriage. Because gay marriage is somehow against the First Amendment. “This is tantamount to government establishing religion,” Santorum said. “When the United States government comes in and says this is what you are going to believe, this is …

And yup, he compares himself to Martin Luther King.

“You define yourself as a Christian and you’re going to be defined by society as narrow-minded, judgmental, hateful. Believing marriage is between a man and a woman [is] used as ammunition to say you hate gays. Teaching intelligent design is literally likened to child abuse now, mocked as ‘anti-science.’ Virginity is mocked. Being pro-life is being spun as a war …

“Mark my words. If gay marriage goes through the Supreme Court and gay marriage becomes fine and they can put teeth in it so now they can go after churches, like the president’s lawyer says, 50 percent of our churches will fall away. Meaning, within five years, 50 percent of the congregants will fall away from their church because they …

Listen closely at the end, but that’s what he’s saying.

Mediaite recaps: Glenn Beck declared this week that he is officially “out of the Republican Party.” Karl Rove responded to this on The O’Reilly Factor tonight by essentially yawning. Rove said he’s not really surprised by this “old news,” pointing to a few times before when Beck made similar statements about leaving the GOP. He pointed to what Beck said …

Right Wing Watch has the transcript: “Is this the kind of freedom that we’re at? Anyone who feels the same as Dolce and Gabbana, let me ask you, are they empowered to express their view or are they now afraid that Hollywood and progressives will come after them? The party of progress is making progress indeed, back to the Dark …

“Goodbye to his presidential career. It’s over. It’s over. There is no way to recover from that. That just sounds like a lunatic. That is just a ridiculous statement on a million fronts. A ridiculous statement. It’s not just that he didn’t see [the question] coming. It’s that he just thought that was a good answer. That was good enough …

Via Mediaite: Glenn Beck is not crazy. That’s why, last night, he acted out a whole scenario in which he’s a 90-year-old man in the year 2054 proving just how not-crazy he is. Beck got makeup and hair to make him look like a feeble old man, 40 years in the future, where (I’m guessing, it’s never directly said) progressives …

Kyle Mantyla writes at Right Wing Watch: Glenn Beck received an advance copy of “The Imitation Game,” the new film about Alan Turing’s effort to crack the Nazi Enigma code during World War II and his eventual suicide after he was prosecuted for being gay, a crime at the time. On his radio program today, Beck raved about the film, …

From the Pew Research report: Those with consistently conservative political values are oriented around a single outlet—Fox News—to a much greater degree than those in any other ideological group: Nearly half (47%) of those who are consistently conservative name Fox News as their main source for government and political news. Far fewer choose any other single source: Local radio ranks …

“Just when we thought the program couldn’t get any better, FRC Action is proud to announce that Glenn Beck, the voice behind one of the highest-rated radio shows in America will be joining the Values Voter Summit in D.C. next weekend. Beck, who conservatives know from TheBlaze TV, one of the world’s largest streaming video networks, is making a return …
