| 4. Omg...the young female technician half-heartedly asked if he needed any water. |
|
Didn't occur to anyone to check his breathing passages or loosen any clothing.

| 24. She didn't move forward until told to help, & she didn't move fast when she finally did. |

| 8. I can see why he passed out. |
|
I was on the verge of passing out too, listening to Beck's "logic".

| 10. JUST like a Republican - asking someone ELSE to help... tsk tsk tsk and he's right there |
|
Glenn Beck - useless in so many ways it's not even funny.

It's very possible he's narcoleptic. That explains the passing out as well as the few seconds beforehand when he so calmly explains that he's about to pass out.

| 18. That's what I thought too. But did he fall like a narcoleptic? can't tell. |
|
The announcement was kinda strange though. It seemed rather routined. " BTW, Glen, I'm goin' to pass out. Have a good day "
I'm sorry for the guy. That's like the one place I wouldn't want to wake up. That splitsecond in which you awake and ask yourself if you just landed in Mormon hell must be terrible.

| 21. No, could just be a drop in blood pressure... |

If it's happened to you and you know the signs, you have enough time to tell someone what's happening, and to take some action. But if you try to be polite and brazen it out, you're going to collapse, like this guy did.
It's happened to me a couple of times, ironically right in the doctor's office. But I had plenty of time to calmly tell the doctor "doc, I don't mean to interrupt you, but I'm feeling light-headed and I need to lie back and elevate my legs or I'm gonna faint", which I could do, being on the examining table at the time.

| 23. So far, I can't find any update on it. |
|
If you do a google news search for "David Buckner" you should probably be able to find an update eventually.

| 20. I'm surprised Beck didn't douse him with fake gasoline to wake him up - oh, that's right |
|
he wants someone ELSE to take care of it - he can't handle one person fainting in his midst -but he is directing the American people to follow him because he is so strong. (chuckle) blind leading the blind was never truer than with Beck
