Favorite Quote from Common Sense

by Glenn Beck

"Just as we look back with pride and awe at what the generations before us did to preserve the cause of freedom, our children will look back at us. But should we now fail it won't be with pride or awe, it will be with disgust. As they toil under oppressive taxes and tyrannical rule, they will wonder what we were so busy doing that we did not notice the stripping away of our freedoms and liberties."

A Review of Common Sense by a satisfied reader

"A modern plea for political sanity"

"Beck again hits the target with his insightful discussion about an out-of-control government. Using the style of the famed patriot Thomas Paine, Beck makes point after point ( all well researched )about the need to return to the roots of our Constitution and our founding fathers original plans for this great country.

Ironically, many of the hundreds of negative reviewers admit that they haven't actually read this book, yet the left must condemn anything that sheds light on their hidden agenda.
How sad." ~ By Patriot Reader

Glenn Beck is a very polarizing figure. Out of the 1,032 reviews on this book, 756 are 4 and 5 star positive reviews. 255 are one or two star reviews. Here are a couple of examples of 1 or 2 star reviews. I have to wonder if they really read the book. Glenn Beck's Common Sense is #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list for paperback nonfiction

"This guy is just plain nuts
I don't even know what else to say. Don't waste your money! Can a person even make it a 0 star? ~ By C. Murray 'cmurray2000'"

"Beck and Truth don't mix,
Mr. Beck's text would be an embarresment to Thomas Paine. I really don't get how Mr. Beck's thinking is related to Tom Paine. Mr. Beck, as on his television show, has a hard time not distorting reality. I don't think he does any serious fact checking - he just says what he wants. I have absolutely no respect for him and his distorted statements which one could easily say are 'lies'". ~ By James J. Crisco "Jeff"
