The mayor of Glenn Beck's hometown of Mt. Vernon, WA wants to give him the keys to the city. DailyKos jerks are assaulting the mayor with opposition. Let's balance it out by offering our support.
The text..
"I'm from a beautiful small town in Washington. Mount Vernon was named Best small city in America in 1998. We host the Tulip Festival every year, where thousands descend on our picturesque valley to view the beautiful flowers (we sell more than all of Holland!) Heck, Jesus even attended my high school! (Thank you Jim Caviezel) But now... Now I just don't know about it. You see, while Edward R. Murrow lived just up the road in the small town of Bow, our most notable journalist to herald Mount Vernon as home at one point is none other than Glen Beck.
And our mayor is considering giving him the key to the city.
This is just not acceptable. The mayor is a non-partisan position and there is no one more partisan than Beck. Celebrating him in ANY town would be reprehensible, but to say that I have to share my hometown with him is even worse. And to see that town claim him as a hero and someone to be celebrated? I don't know if I'll ever be able to go home.
Please, contact our mayor's office and tell them that, as a citizen of America, no city should be honoring this man. No non-partisan position should celebrate the dichotomies this man builds. Let them know that America would never expect this type of action from their "best small city".

Sorry for the short diary, but I'm too outraged to rant more about how much I loath the man sharing my home. I'm living on the beautiful San Juan Islands for a week, and I wish I didn't have this hanging over my head. Thank you for any help you can be."
I think I know who posted that nonsense!
ohgeez. what soap opera did this come from?
Her name is Laura.
What a TOTAL ‘drama llama’. I bet ‘she’ gets ‘the vapors’. LOL!
‘drama llama’
perfect description for 90% of washington.
ah diddums.
The town might give the keys to a man who has made something of himself.
What exactly does the left have against peoples views and freedoms?
All they ever do is attack folks who do not tow their fanatical radical view. They’re not even in the majority wit their views and for some reason they think that they should impose their agenda on to others.
I’ve sent mail to the mayor making the point that it shows a man can make something of himself by just telling the truth and by coming form a small town
I live in Friday Harbor. Do you know where in the San Juans she is visiting? Maybe I could go out and stage a protest sit-in at her location. What a loser.
I know exactly where she is, and the ferry doesn’t go there!
Take your time, I'll be holding my breath.
just looking at the Glenn link you gave and WOW I cannot believe that this color of change(what is that supposed to mean)?
They’re full of lies but worse they are trying to stop the truth from coming out.
and what is this largest Afro American group?
Why not just American and when they say that do they mean just blacks as they seem to have forgot that whites come from Africa too .
still the left have never been very smart to understand these things anyway.
I noticed the ratings at that site. Beck beat Hannity? Hahahahaha.
Waldron, eh? With the rest of the hippies?
1. Rush
2. Beck
3. Hannity
No, she’s visiting her former professor at his estate.
That sounds cozy. Trump, Crane, Johns, Speiden, Henry, Pearl?
