Glenn Beck video - surgery goes 'horribly awry'
« on: January 04, 2008, 11:18:47 AM »
Headline News' Glenn Beck talks about his recent botched surgery, rails against the hospital where he was treated, launches into the Presidential campaign and a lack of compassion then talks about how he became "full fledged suicidal."

It's over 7 minutes long. He kind of rambles. It will be interesting to hear more details.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

 :o Damn, I had no idea he was having surgery. I used to watch him every night at the gym.

I will be one to add that surgery is still in it's infancy. While it has progressed over the last five decades, it's still not where it should be. Then, the hospital care leaves a LOT to be desired. I had my third back surgery last Jun. It appears that the most recent surgery has done some good. Too bad my first lower back surgery didn't.

I guess we'll have to wait until Monday before we'll know. The web doesn't have much info on his recent surgery.

Hopefully everything works out. He's a humble and very talented commentator.

Glen Beck is great.  Even messed up, he is the best out there.

I think he found exactly the problem most of the folks are having here.
