"....even when he's saying vile things about immigrants..." ???? First of all, Glenn loves immigrants. Did you mean to type, 'illegal aliens'? If you were referring to his stance on persons who are here illegally, like most Americans, he IS against it. However, Glenn only says "vile" things about the one committing vile crimes.

The article says far more about Joel Topcik than it does about Glenn Beck. "Reactionary" is not Glenn's style, but Joel's when it comes to anyone to the right of Michael Moore...

May God Bless Glenn Beck and his family through this clearly difficult ordeal.

Hey, Glenn Beck's a GREAT guy! I watched this YouTube video and Glenn comes off very real and genuine. He's authentic. And what I love about him, is that he tells the truth. Even though pain, he tells the truth. God bless Glenn Beck. I'm rooting for you big guy! glc

The 'vile things about immigrants' line shows that Topcik has either never listened to GB or that he's being disingenuous. Either way, he has no business posting such amateurish BS. Shame!

vile things about immigrants. Get a grip on yourself, Joel.

That video was really vague. What did he have done that almost killed him?

Exactly Stewart, the author here gratuitously throws in the descriptor "vile" but provides no examples. I've never heard Beck speak in anything other than reverence for immigrants. I suspect as you do that the author is somehow trying to say that Beck says "vile" things about illegal aliens. Even though he does speak to this problem, it's never been "vile".

Joel, Joel, Joel, I think they may have cut your hair a little too short, and nicked your brain. I don't watch Glenn Beck that often, but I have seen what he says about ILLEGAL ALIENS, i.e. criminal non-residents of this country, not immigrants. There is a difference.

When did the truth become vile?

So Glenn is going the Britney route. This self-indulgent display is just like Brit's head shaving or attacking a car.

. . . yes, the vile crime of trying to have a better life.

Yeah like californians? The dude hates Californians.. maybe after his run in with the American Healthcare system, he will change his views on the subject.

Not to be offensive but your piece clarifies nothing and adds nothing to what is obvious on Mr. Beck's own widely circulated clip. I’m guessing you were paid for your effort although it is hard to imagine why. This especially tiresome (effort?) gives you away at the outset. You can always count on people with limited insight to inflate the intellectual value of their piece with a thesaurus. You are like a girl stuffing Kleenex into her brazier: Over your head and bound to disappoint.

ratings ploy.

My guess is he is planning a malpractice suit. Republicans have been disparaging of lawsuits as evil nuisances. So Glenn must explain how much he suffered from this "botched" surgery. I hope he had the surgery in Texas, where pain and suffering awards are limited, thanks to Glenn's hero George Bush.

Hillary is vile

Glenn Beck has NEVER said vile things about immigrants. You, sir, are a moron and you are part of the problem in America.

"....even when he's saying vile things about immigrants..." Vile, so you think telling the truth about criminals is vile? You would have better luck at finding vile in your bathroom mirror.

Thank you Stewart!!!!

Vile Michael Savage? You are the vile little mind, Joel. Both Savage and Beck have very clear and reasoned logic on illegal interlopers: WE DON'T WANT ANYONE HERE ILLEGALLY stealing our tax dollar paid citizenship rights. They are not immigrants because they have not immigrated; they are trespassing thieves. If they want to work here, apply for citizenship and start paying taxes.

What surgery exactly did he have done?

He says vile things about criminal illegal aliens, true vile things. They are not guest workers, political trespassers, or displaced persons from wars or natural disasters. They are criminal trespassers!!!
