They are giving Glenn Beck the key to the city in Mt Vernon, WA. Apparently this is the mayor's decision to reward a local boy done good.
I drive through Mt Vernon on a fairly regular basis and often stop at local nurseries. I'll be driving through a bit sick to my stomach in the future.

I'm horrified, as I'm sure other Washingtonians are. Not sure how best to protest, but will be watching for my options. I feel sorry for the progressives that live there, but I will NOT be stopping on my way through to shop anymore.
Apparently this was the mayor's decision alone and the majority of the City Council members will not be attending the recognition event. I'm sure there are many residents who support the mayor, but I am incredibly embarrassed (more accurately outraged) that this is happening in my backyard.
Not sure if this qualifies for a diary or not, but was really hoping for a little feedback on this one.
