30 bucks?!?  What’s the penalty tax on this shirt?

Never let a crisis go to waste, I guess.

    I personally can’t stand Beck, but I may just buy this shirt.

    The t-shirt is only missing the punchline:

    Selling America down the river: PRICELESS.

    I would much rather have one with john boehner’s face on it. I just read that the worthless c*nthole now won’t prosecute Holder for contempt. I sure wish I knew where Obama’s behind the scenes clout comes from…….

    Informed conservatives wee not happy with Roberts 7 years ago. Roberts had a very short but left wing bench track record. John is a prime reason GWB’s approval dropped from 51% in 04 to mid 30′s% in06. And stayed mid 30′s for years. Another “Read my lips….!” left wing lie from the Bushes.

    Surprised by vote – no!

    Unhappy with the leftl wing Chief – *YES*!

    I don’t like the way he arrived at his decision, but I don’t think he is a coward.

    I’m going to get a few of these. Also- it would be great if BFH could make up one of his great art works to commemorate the supreme court decision. I’ve found that when I print them up and put them on my car they draw a fair bit of attention.

    How can anyone possibly call him a coward? He’s a formerly closeted liberal, that just came out.

    Menderman, I think he certainly had in mind the hounding he would get, the crazies he would attract if he stopped Obamatax when he made his decision. He found a way to punt this back to us. Do you think he wanted Madison liberal crazies camped outside his house or protesting in front of the court for the next- well who knows- the Madison crazies are still over a year later-and after Walker was re-elected- behaving insanely, holding protests, and following elected officials around harassing them. I’m sure he feared for his family if he stopped Obama.

    All of his shirts are too high!
    I demand government subsidies!
    Occupy Glen’s Shirt Store!
    We demand free crap!
    I’m pretty sure he’s forcing people to buy his wares!

    All of the shirts Glenn Beck sells are made in America by Americans, so they are worth the extra cost to me. Good quality shirts too.

    IMO Beck is one of the good guys.

    I do not agree with everything he does, but he would certainly be on the short list of folk I would invite to my Galt-Island.

    Honestly, that List is getting smaller and smaller these days…

    I think you make your own point. These are the times for men to once again pledge their sacred honor.

    If Roberts is afraid, he shouldn’t have taken the job.

    Remember folks, the company that makes this shirt uses ONLY American-made products and employees displaced women from abusive situations in order to help them get back in the workforce. That’s why the shirt is worth $30 – or you could spend $20 on a piece of crap that shrinks 30% in the first wash and won’t last a year.

    Billy — I think Roberts doesn’t have the same kind of sacred honor the Founders had. He’s a progressive that wants to change everything about the country.

    Almost forgot — when Beck wanted to start his clothing division, he talked to all the bigwigs in the NY rag trade and they told him there was NO ONE manufacturing clothes in the U.S. anymore and that he could make the stuff way cheaper (and sell it cheaper) overseas. He declined and rehabed a clothing factory in Mount Airy, N.C., I believe.

    As the above comment said, he employs single mothers from abusive homes who don’t want welfare but want to work. After all of his bidness costs, the profits go to charity.

    The other staggering thing he found when looking for a manufacturer is that there are also no domestic shoe producers left either.

    A few years ago Glenn had an “exclusive movie” shown at “select theaters.” Something about a red sweater?

    The tickets were like $20/each! No kid pricing.

    He’s always felt kind of cult-ish after that.

    I just don’t buy it, there has to be a method to his madness. I have a feeling that a shitpot load of people are gonna be saying they fukedup when all is said and done an Roberts was the key in getting our country back. I just see to many knee jerk reactionaries.

    Here’s a clip from Becks show from yesterday he talks about the Roberts/SCOTUS decision and how his knowledge of US history and the Constitution evolved over the past few years. Plus theres a funny Princess Bride gag in the clip.

    I know he has pissed off quite a few people including Fur. Beck called Newt a Prog & sarcastically accusing Newt supporters of raaaaacism in Dec 2011. He talks about Newt’s prog tendencies in this clip too, he wanted to double the size of the State Dept. He can be a bit emotional, he frequently talks off the cuff and pisses everyone off but I think his heart os in the right place more so than many othes. He definitely didn’t try to RINO roll the issue like Allahpundit and Erickson. I don’t really “follow Beck” in the groupie sense, there’s too much sycophantry (is that really a word?) in politics these days. He continues to have very interesting guests on his shows, “The Blaze” site is free and his GBTV show is cheap. the GBTV- “Real News” show doesn’t have him in it at all and it’s pretty good.

    BTW he’s changing the name of GBTV to The Blaze.

    We all know you don’t like Beck so if you don’t want to buy the shirt than Don’t. He is on our side though unlike these progs like Roberts & Boehner. Breitbart’s shirt was pretty expensive to I mean really $20+ dollars for a shirt which was probably not made in America. I can get a shirt a waomart for $3 but it is not helping anybody but Walmart. Get off of Glenn’s back. I know he can take it but geesh, we have bigger fish to fry and destroy then him.

    I’m sorry for the typos but this makes me sad to see us going after each other. Do you think that people who listen to Rush is a cult? And what about the price of his tea? I’ve never heard you say anything about that. Yes, he is helping people and so is Beck. I don’t care for Ron Paul, but he can say what he wants at least he is on our side and not a progressive. The real thing here is why are you so upset over a tshirt when we have been stripped of more of our freedoms? And where do your shirts and merchandise made? I see IOTW shirts at 18 and more dollars. Why are we condeming capitalism and freedom. I don’t get and I’m tired of it.

    beck should look at what romney did in massachusetts. he called for and implemented a policy requiring that all adults purchase health insurance or pay a penalty (tax?) if they didnt. will we have a romney coward tee shirt next so beck can charge another $30 a pop?romney was for an individual mandate before he was against it. it is sad that beck goes after a fellow conservative just because he doesnt drink all of beck’s smelly kool (kook?) aid.
