Glenn Beck's Common Sense: The Case Against an Out-of-Control Government, Inspired by Thomas Paine

Customer Reviews:

Original and a new classics, together in one copy...

By Jakey D - December 3, 2012

I was very happy that I read this book. There is even an inserted original book by Thomas Paine, so you can order this one and read both in one. I read Paine book first, so I have both and they are amazing. I highly recommend getting this one, as oppose to both, since Glenn Beck includes the entire original "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine in this manuscript. Highly recommend it.

I also recommend another great read

Beck makes his point, but misses Paine's Reasoning.

By Prohobo "Reason..." - August 31, 2009

As a fan on Thomas Paine (especially Common Sense and Age of Reason), I was very much excited to read Beck's book. After the first few chapters, I realized there is almost NO connection at all to Paine's work. It seems that it is more of marketing ploy to attach one's name to Paine and use a famous title of Paine's work that inspired a nation, to generate book sales. That initial frustration got me off to a bad start. That is of course in no way reflects Beck's view or his writing. However, I was "fooled" thinking this was a revisit of that classic work "Common Sense" to modern times. Unfortunately the book, other than title, has little if any connection to Paine's work.

Ironically - for those unfamiliar to Paine's work, but a fan of Becks - I wonder how they would find Paine's "Age of Reason" - it would almost stand to reason that he would lose half (if not more) of his supporters if he visited "Age of Reason" - he might even lose his show on Fox. Note any reference to... read more

Awesome!

By Craig Thayer "FC Thayer" - April 30, 2013

This is an awesome reflection of how Glenn Beck sees "Common Sense" in today's society, & after listening to this audiobook, I can see how he sees very little common sense in our government. It was a fantastic "listen" & I cannot wait until part 2 comes out as I heard it's in the making!!
