Publisher's summary

COURAGE > COWARDS

As we approach the most important presidential election in America’s history, something has been lost among all of the debates, attack ads, and super- PACs - something that Americans used to hold in very high regard: THE TRUTH.

Glenn Beck likes to say that “the truth has no agenda” - but there’s another side to that: people who have agendas rarely care about the truth. And, these days, it seems like everyone has an agenda. The media leads with stories that rate over those that matter. Politicians put lobbyists and electability over honesty. Radicals alter history in order to change the future.

In Cowards, Glenn Beck exposes the truth about 13 important issues that have been hijacked by deceit. Whether out of spite, greed, or fear, these are the things that no one seems to be willing to have an honest conversation about. For example:

• How our two-party political system often leaves voters with no good options.
• How extremists are slowly integrating Islamic law into our society.
• How progressive “religious” leaders like Jim Wallis are politicizing the Bible.
• How the cartel violence on our border is far worse than people realize.
• How “Libertarian” has been intentionally turned into a dirty word.
• How George Soros has amassed enough money and power to influence entire economies.

In some cases, the truth is out there, but people simply don’t want to hear it. It’s much easier, and certainly a lot more convenient, to keep our blinders on. After all, as a quote attributed to President James Garfield made clear, “The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable.”

Miserable or not, the truth can no longer be something we hope for; it must be something we live. When courage prevails, cowards do not - and this book was written to ensure that’s exactly what happens.

So glad I got this book.

A wealth of knowledge, really glad I got this book. It will open your eyes to what we once had as a nation and are losing.

Hard Hitting Analysis by a Man Who Walks the Walk!

After having purchased Glenn's Arguing with Idiots I already knew to expect something that was as witty as it was timely...But Cowards went so far beyond my expectations!

For starters let me say that I really believe that this book picks up where Andrew Breitbart's Righteous Indignation left off. However, whereas Andrew's book provided a bird's eye view of the liberal media complex; Beck's book goes a step beyond...

He paints a picture (the 50,000 foot-down version) of the entire battlefield that you can expect to find yourself fighting on-if you're a conservative or a libertarian and Glenn holds no punches.

He doesn't stop with exposing liberals either, he also shines the light on moderate Republicans who stand in the way of protecting our nation's values.

In summary I don't think I've read an Audible title that kept me on the edge of my seat as much as this one did. Well done Mr. Beck!

excellent

another book full of Truth and information by wonderful author Glenn Beck pointing out the things that are being told to everyone which jus aren't so

Good but not one of Glen Beck's Best

Whether or not you are at some level of Libertarianism or a Constitutionalist, this book is a good read for political discussion. Right or Left leaning, the book Cowards does show a viewpoint that may help readers think where their own view point of governance stands based on Mr. Beck's take on governance. This book is well researched and includes other suggested readings.
