Macular Dystrophy: Glenn Beck Going Blind?

Glenn Beck announced at his “American Revival” meeting yesterday that he may have something called Macular Dystrophy. Macular Dystrophy is a progressive disorder that causes people to eventually lose their sight completely. Glenn Beck took the opportunity to tearfully remind the Lord that “if you need my eyes, they're yours,” which makes one lose sympathy a little bit. Nonetheless, here's hoping that Jesus spares Glenn Beck his eyesight. He's no good to us blind.

  • There is no such thing as macular dystrophy. There IS something called macular degeneration.

  • In 2006, he complained how the braille signs around his building bothered him so much, he wanted all the coffee pots to be marked in braille with the word “HOT”…

  • What kind of piece of garbage needs sympathy so much that he comes out and says he “might” have a disease. Woooaaah is me.

  • Glenn Beck doesn't have an original thought in his pin head. This is a direct ripoff of the sleazy and corrupt Oral Roberts' fundraising shenanigans. In January 1987, during a fundraising drive, Roberts announced to a television audience that unless he raised $8 million by that March, God would “call him home.”
    What will the dim witted and pathetic Beck come up with next to get attention? A ride in a runaway balloon?

  • OK, who at FOX left behind the copy of Oedipus Rex for him to read?  The only question that remains is whether he's going for the full Oedipus, or is just deciding to be FOX's Tiresias.

  • Hmmm. After years of spewing venomous hate, hypocrisy and lies Rush Limbaugh goes deaf and now Glenn Beck is going blind. Must be something to that.

  • Mark 9:47 —And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: I want to see him pluck his eyes out.
    Maybe on HBO or some pay-per-view, perhaps while he is *tweeking* ; like when he was “high for 15 years”.
    Since he is a devout Mormon, will he be able to see his celestial wives in heaven? — or will he have to feel his way around the clouds while god plays hide and seek with Glenns' eyeballs. I wonder if ….

  • Translation: Beck's not going to go blind, but will claim God saved his eyes, thereby completing his transformation from radio demagogue to religious charlatan.
