Laughing at the unemployment? Wow... Classy. Another progressive proving where his loyalty lies (not for the good of America).
Glenn Beck's coded language may refer to obscure LDS doctrine

Typically advertisers throw their money at the shows that are the most watched or at shows who's viewers represent a specific market like sports events, men and beer or Lifetime channel, women and chocolate. Since Beck's show pretty much attracts a cross section of America I find it unlikely that advertisers would cancel "because they don't believe his [Beck's] viewers are buying their products". I think the more likely reason would be that they do not want their products associated with Beck.
gee, I dunno.

*laughs at employment*
I'm pretty sure he's laughing at Clutch's unemployment specifically.
I'm actually worried about the guy. I'll be noting the NY bar exam results with interest.

Will they give me my license as "C l u t c H 385"? That's a lawyer I'd trust. I'll be noting the results as well...I'm really leaning towards not wanting to be a lawyer though. So I won't be too excited/crushed either way.
That-a boy! Finally we're clearly back on the same page... er... name. I miss you.
Sometimes I cry inside when I realize how much I wish I was like you.
I often do the same thing when I realize that I am me.
I bet you throw up in your mouth as well.
But can you find sources for them?

Funny, it's always the conservatives I see with teh yellow stripes anytime a Mulim gets within 100 miles of them.
Because you're killing the tax on tanning booths and premium health plans? Outside of that, Obama's plan (which is nothing like socialized medicine) was self-funded. Killing those two revenue streams won't change that.
Still, since the conservatives have almost no chance at winning the Senate, and no chance at all of getting 2/3 of either the house or the Senate, your bravado seems to lack support in reality.
seriously, I'm about to call Poe's law here.
Free markets are very good at creating wealth for the wealthy and keeping the poor poor.
Since there have been taxes.
I think you are correct, I seem to have misread the article on that point.

Beck will get booted off Fox because his program is getting too much rooted in the truth for Fox News, and apparently Madison Avenue, to handle it. I told you before that his biggest problem is that he is not extreme enough, but he is progressively getting there quickly . Some might mistakenly read that as him being crazy, but they'll learn that's not the case. He's right.
Rupert Murdoch isn't this conservative monster that some people would have you believe, he's a progressive globalist. Roger Ailes has always had problems with Beck. Maybe they'll push Glenn out and he'll get involved with politics. God only knows CT could use him, they couldn't even get Peter Schiff elected over there.

I thought the OP article does a poor job of capturing Mormon culture. The White Horse Prophecy may not be a household name, but "the constitution hanging by a thread" line definitely is. The story is that it (WHP) was never authenticated back to Joseph Smith. However, numerous church authorities have either quoted a version of the JS line or have given their own similar prophesy. For example, Ezra Taft Benson referred to a "God-given mandate and world-wide mission" preceded by "Brethren, if we had done our homework and were faithful, we could step forward at this time and help save this country." The "God-given mandate" may not be saving the country, it could have been a reference to a general fight for freedom, which is an important LDS theme.
When Glenn Beck first popped up real big a few years back, I was amazed at how openly Mormon he was. Not only did he say he's Mormon, but his message is founded in LDS doctrine. I think the question is not where he gets the message/themes from, but if he is sending the correct interpretation.
And yeah, it seems coded to me. Mormons will definitely know where he's coming from, where those unfamiliar with LDS doctrine would not.

Well, of course it is uniquely difficult in Mormonism to call a particular interpretation correct or incorrect, being rooted as it is on the principle of personal revelation. Hence the old Mormon adage about putting 100 Mormons in a room, and having a room full of people who believe 100 different things.
