Many viewers and listeners probably noticed that Glenn Beck was absent for much of his radio and his Fox News television program yesterday. It turns out that Beck suffered an appendicitis attack, and is recovering from surgery. This didn’t stop Beck from taking a shot a Michael Moore via his Twitter page.
Beck website claimed that liberal bloggers were hoping for Beck’s death, “After being in pain most of the night, Glenn ended up leaving the radio program early yesterday to see a doctor. Turned out the pain was appendicitis and Glenn underwent surgery. Everything went well and he is now in recovery and doing fine. Glenn and his wife Tania are so thankful for all the kind words, prayers and support from everyone. Well, almost everyone. Those compassionate loving liberal bloggers were bummed things didn’t end differently for Glenn.”
Even in the hospital, Beck took a shot a Michael Moore via Twitter, “I just realized my tonsils are missing. Man, I wish I were as rich as M. Moore i could’ve had some of that sweet Castro Care he loves.” Wow, Beck is still a giant jerk. By the way, I would love for Beck and Moore to compare bank accounts. It is a pretty safe bet that Beck is making more dough than Moore.
Beck’s illness proves that the rich do get better care than everyone else. If Beck didn’t have health insurance, he likely would have been sent home from the hospital. To Beck his hospital stay is evidence that the healthcare system is fine, but the millions of uninsured
With Government care he would still be waiting for the ambulance while being charged out the ying yang. Thank God hey have not taken over yet.

Who knew that one could get appendicitis just from being overrated?

Thank goodness he was able to get to the hospital in time.
It’s just too bad he wasn’t ‘fixed’ like Fix, er, Faux News; or debarked while they had him under.
Hopefully he will be out of the hospital soon and recovering quickly. We wouldn’t want it to cost those insurance companies too much money after all.

In March I went to my local emergency room in New Brunswick, NJ for what turned out to require emergency surgery. The place was packed — it was a Saturday night and apparently that’s date night at the emergency room. I would bet that I was likely one of just a handful of “patients” in there with health insurance and I promise you the care I received was just as poor as everyone else. I laid in the hallway on a stretcher for nearly 13 hours — all of the rooms in the emergency room were occupied by drunks who were sleeping it off.

That’s why the countries that have it have better outcomes for their patients at less cost, better infant mortality rates, pretty much better everything across the board that is measurable about their health care.

The fact that he had appendicitis means that he is full of s- – -. It was so impacted that he could not get it out.

Ahh ever country who has government run health care has lower cost, and better out comes, the US is 23 out of 36 for child death at birth, we are 17 out of 26 in over all deaths that could have been prevented so what the hell are you talking about? GOD I hate morons.

Glenn Beck is a model american citizen who tells it like it is. I am tired of people insulting a man brave enough to say whats on his mind.
[Reply]
unfortunately, it is a teary-eyed, teeny tiny, misinformed and ignorant mind with nasty agendas that likes to lie to people.
Model american citizen? Beck??????????? How in the world do you arrive at that crazy concept?
That recent parody of Beck done by Jon Stewart? Nailed him, nailed Beck COLD.
