Is Glenn Beck Driving Local Far Left Democrats Nuts?

Police in Mt. Vernon are getting ready for any confrontation between leftwing radical Democrats and tea party supporters of Glenn Beck as he arrives this Saturday to receive the keys to the city of Mt. Vernon from Mayor Bud Norris.

Tea Party fans of Beck are beginning to organize themselves to counter the wing nut Democrats.

Here is the e-mail that was sent out to Democrats all over King, Pierce, Snohomish and Skagit Counties that started this fight:

Mount Vernon, Wash.—The Young Democrats of Skagit County calls on the community to demonstrate against Mayor Bud Norris giving Glenn Beck the key to the city.  The demonstration will be held outside of McIntyre Hall 2501 East College Way at Skagit Valley College on Saturday, September 26 at 5:30 p.m. PDT.

The message of the protests is, “Hate isn’t a Skagit Valley value.”

Here was the response from the Tea Party Organizers:

Action Alert!!!

They are trying to ‘shoot the messenger ‘!!!

GLENN BECK STANDS UP FOR US AND IT IS TIME FOR US TO STAND UP FOR GLENN BECK!
Tea Party Patriots and 912'ers please rally round
WE MUST HAVE A SHOW OF FORCE FOR TRUTH!!!
The Mt Vernon Tea Party group has put out a desperate call for help to counter the mounting protest at the Glenn Beck ceremony where he will receive the “Key to the City” Saturday September 26th, at McIntyre Hall at Skagit Valley College!
The young democrats have placed a ¼ page ad in the Skagit Valley Herald calling for folks to protest against Glenn Beck at McIntyre Hall receiving the “Keys to the City”.

Where & When:
Skagit Valley College McIntyre Hall
Saturday September 26th
5:00pm (1/2 hour before the anti-Beck protesters get there)
Please, make a sign, get a piece of construction paper, keep it simple, make it bold and stay on topic!

News media from around the nation have picked up the story including the New York Times, the Huffington Post, the Bellingham Herald, the Boston Herald, Air America, KOMO 4, KING 5, the Seattle Times, Q13 Fox, the awful Everett Herald and the Skagit Valley Herald.

Beck will travel to Mt. Vernon after appearing before a crowd at Safeco Field: Link.  I understand that Glenn Beck’s appearance may set a record for attendance at this sort of event in Safeco Field. I stand corrected Tickets are still available.

Have fun everybody and don’t forget to bring your gas masks because I understand that some really weird folks are being bused up to Mt. Vernon by the Demo wing nuts!
