Calling into a conservative talk show, Glenn Beck offered his views on why Conservative activist Supreme Court Judge Antonin Scalia, was found dead last weekend. Because, according to Glenn Beck, God wanted to show Americans how easy it was for us to lose our liberty, so, according to Glenn Beck, God wants us elect “a true constitutionalist” like Ted Cruz to save America.
Yea, you can’t make this stuff up!
“I just woke the American people up,” Beck said, explaining the wonders of God’s plan. “I took them out of the game show moment and woke enough of them up to say, look at how close your liberty is to being lost. You now have lost your liberty. You replace one guy and you now have 5-4 decisions in the other direction. Just with this one guy, you’ve lost your liberty so you’d better elect somebody that is going to be somebody on [the court] because for the next 30 years, if you don’t, the Constitution as you know it [is gone].”
“The Constitution is hanging by a thread,” he declared. “That thread has just been cut and the only way that we survive now is if we have a true constitutionalist.”
Ted Cruz often refers to himself as a true constitutionalist, except of course the part of the constitution that talked about “Natural Born Citizen.”
