MOUNT VERNON, Wash. (AP) - Glenn Beck's visit to his hometown in Washington state this weekend seemed simple enough on the surface, with a ceremonial key to the city awaiting him and the mayor naming the day in the Fox News personality's honor.
But this being Glenn Beck, nothing is that easy.
Groups have demonstrated on the streets and in city council meetings over the conservative commentator's visit. Petitions have been collected calling on the cancellation of the visit. A small business owner put up a sign that says: "Glenn Beck & Hatred not welcome here." And the leader of a nearby city has offered the key to his city to Jon Stewart in sort of a mayoral rebuttal.

I wish they would have identified the “small business owner” who put the “Glen beck and hatred not welcome here” sign in his window. I’d like to send him a note. I did notice the only anti-Beck quote they could come up with came from some 59-yr old woman with a hyphenated last name. Bet she’s one of those old hippies. The idea of giving Jon Stewart (Liebowitz) a key to protest Beck is a great example of the arrested development of leftists. This guy’s idea of the anti-beck is some comic watched by stoned college kids.
Exactly.
Go back to DU, troll.
The doobie-addled left is pathetically petty.
Sorry... been here since 1999.
So you’re a long-term troll. You still linked to a Fox-bashing leftie site.
The best way to shut these libtards up is to mention Rev Wright.
To quote Ms Perky: “So it all comes back to Reverend Wright?”
Yep!
Cavuto and Fox deserve to be called out from time to time... especially when good folks here think they have a corner on the “truth”.
They don’t have to. Because its about a conservative, they merely have to say it for it to be true.
I hope he stops in that store and confronts him.
I’ll tell you exactly what it is, liberals, for the most part, don’t know anything except what they are told. They see something on the news and they glom onto it. They hear Glen Beck is a bad man and is a hater and they believe it, because they believe everything they have ever been taught or told by someone they think is in “authority”. That’s it in a nutshell, people who are so uneducated and brainwashed that whatever the SRM tells them and whatever the government tells them has got to be true.
what are you trying to pull off here lefty ?
Yeah...I’m anti the Mormon cult, but sure love his show. Just because you’re one, doesn’t mean you have to be the other.
I don't think Fox is necessarily above all the MSM lies (are are pretty bad with the tabloid crap), but the commentators like Cavuto, Beck, etc. are just that, commentators. They can hype up the tea parties all they like, because they are presented as opinion shows, not the hard news.
FAIL
“The best way to shut these libtards up is to mention Rev Wright.”
That doesn’t work here. I should know because I live in Mount Vernon.
Jeramiah Wright is OK because he’s black. So is THE Reverend Jesse Jackson. And THE Reverend Al Shapton. And Congressman Charlie Rangle. And the former hand picked Czar Van Jones. Sodomist, and cesspool of corruption, Bonnie Fwank is also welcome here—at least at the coffee shop level.
The wise heads, still adorned in the latest grey headed, balding, hippy hairstyle, would nod sagely when our beloved president called the Boston Police “stupid” for “picking on” Professor Gates, because it was/is/will be “racist.”
The Glenn Beck heavy breathing, threats, and caponized wheezing of the commie, layabout, socialist, fascist, terroist welcoming local Rats is fun to listen to IF you have a sense of humor and a smattering of history inside your conservative skull.
Since our country has fallen into a limpwristed form of the Cult of Personality, two things are bound to happen. One is that the Personality they favor is a stupid, lying, inept, communist, who spends far more money on himself and his “image” that either he or we deserve. The capstone is that this man just happens to be black, and of course doesn’t capitalize on this.
The Personality who is the focus—not the cause—of this screeching by Radical Feminists and the otherwise nuetered souls is the Personality that dares point out that the Cult hero, our President, who just happens to be black is a demonstrated racist.
Here in Mount Vernon I hear and smell the popcorn popping, am busting a gut with laughter, and expect the local leftists, their media, the imported protestors, the swarming, smarmy gossips that our national media is sending to my hometown, to provide hours of entertainment for me.
As I laugh along I’ll try and keep you up to date and what is, what is not, and what is being reported.
Can’t argue the points so they pull the Hate card. Seems that the leftists are the haters.
Pray for America

Except for their hatred of Glenn Beck and the truth.
The nearby Mayor (or equivalent) probably missed Jon Stewart’s blasting the MSM for letting 2 ‘kids’ (O’Keefe/Giles) scoop them on the ACORN story. He said - and I may be paraphrasing - “I’m not even a journalist and *I’m* embarassed.”
I saw that. I wonder what the stoned college kids who get their “news” from Stewart thought? I’m sure they were confused.
