Glenn Beck breaks-up with Sarah Palin

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Fox News host Glenn Beck will be on stage together next month with country singer John Rich as part of his “Taking Our Country Back Tour.” 

The three will appear at the Tulsa Convention Center on March 13, with Gretchen Wilson, another country artist. 

Tickets for the rally and concert cost from $45 to $100. 

Brad White, a production manager for Creative Entertainment Unlimited, the company putting on the concert, said that Palin will be paid for the event, but significantly less than her reported $100,000 per event rate. 

White would not provide a specific number on what Palin will receive for the event, but described it as “an honorarium” that was far less than her going rate. 

The event was organized by Tony Holden, a former boxing promoter from Tulsa, Okla. Holden teamed with Rich to create the “tour” — so far only two dates — and recruiting Palin and Beck, White said. 

A second rally has been planned for April in Kansas City with Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham. Rich will also attend that rally. 
If the two rallies are successful, the organizers hope to hold up to 10 more events and are looking to recruit more speakers and performers, including Karl Rove, the ex-senior adviser to George W. Bush, and Dick Morris, Bill Clinton’s former political hand and now conservative pundit.

This public break-up (Palin cheated on him with Donald Trump while he is swooning over a man ineligible to be POTUS, Ted Cruz ) is a fun distraction from the most important POTUS election ever (just like the previous twenty eight ones) but one does wonder about the Glenn Beck devotees who hang on his every word - while simulatneously forgetting his every wrong prediction - and vote like he tells them to vote and who trusts those he trusts.

Well, so what if he no longer tours with and trusts Palin, does that mean he was wildly wrong in promoting her as the answer in 2008?

No, the gold bug, political prophet, Bible expert, Ex Catholic, and food hoarder, is always right when it comes to his faithful followers.

Mr. Beck fears that we may lose the Republic...but the great sage held a rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial even though Honest Abe * was a tyrannical war criminal who slayed state sovereignty and killed the Republic a century and a half ago.

ABS can't wait until Beck catches-up with American history to see if he will then break-up with Abe.

* Honest Abe got his nickname for the same reason a 400 lb mobster gets nicknamed Tiny.
