Beck is desperate to keep himself "relevant" when his star is quickly fading. He's relegated to a radio program with out his bully pulpit on Fox anymore so he's doing everything he can think of to stay in the news. He lies, he fakes tears and he claims to be a constitutional historian who can't seem to remember history in any correct context. This is just a sad and pathetic attempt for attention and he is losing it.
I heard him this morning. Didn't realize this was for real but anyway he said the bids were climbing fast and ebay removed it as it was at the $11,000 range. As for his relevance; he left FOX on his own will because they wouldn't allow him to say all the things he wanted to say. He owns everything he is attached to now and is a serious job creator. His radio show is still going strong with several spin off broadcasts from his crewmen. TheBlaze.com is immensely popular. TheBlaze TV is his own dedicated station on the DISH network. Not bad for irrelevance. And all I've ever heard him claim to be was an ex-alcoholic entertainer with an opinion and a thirst for historical research and relevance and regularly issues challenges to prove him wrong and always urges you not to take his word on anything and to research what he has to say yourself. All that said, I know he is a showman and I perceive his emotions to be overplayed on occasion. Sometimes he and crew are annoying and I'm not too keen on his pension for religion yet I'm definitely not against it. All in all though I think he's alright and does a great job.
