In a conversation with Bill O'Reilly on why he avoids culture war issues, Beck admitted that he doesn't think marriage should be a political issue. "Honestly, I think we have bigger fish to fry," Beck said. "You can argue about abortion or gay marriage or whatever all you want. The country is burning down...I don't think marriage, that the government actually has anything to do with...that is a religious right." "Do you believe gay marriage is a threat to the country in any way?" O'Reilly asked. "A threat to the country? No, I don't," Beck said, laughing, adding mockingly, "Will the gays come and get us?" Beck quoted Thomas Jefferson: "If it neither breaks my leg nor picks my pocket, what difference is it to me?"
Co-host Pat Gray started things off by helpfully reminding listeners that, while (to paraphrase Seinfeld) “there’s nothing wrong with gay parenting manuals,” the book doesn’t actually specialize in parenting tips for gay couples even though its cover features Beck’s son and two men “in Mr. Rogers sweaters.” Beck helpfully explained that co-author Dr. Keith Ablow was added to the image later and that he wanted the cover the way it was because the book isn’t about politics but, rather, about “being happy and finding yourself.” Man, you just keep digging that hole deeper, Glenn.

So what?
Well, it would mean he is a hypocrite and can't be trusted.
I have no problem with gay people, I am a bit gay myself. But, this is about hypocrites, faux conservatives and Glen Beck.

Glen Beck has very popular views, so if he is gay or bisexual, he could help the GLBT community by coming out.
He projects this real clean image, sometimes preachers and family values people do that to hide their true person.
I am just wondering if Beck is doing that, and what others may think.
