I know Glenn Beck has the constitutional right to hold his "Restoring Honor" extravaganza
on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Dr. King's "I Have A Dream" speech but, since it would offend so many of his fellow Americans, shouldn't he voluntarily relocate it to a less controversial---some would say: "less sacred"---location?

Glenn IS a good American, right?

1. It's just a celebration of equal rights for racist scumbags
It's what makes America the greatest country on Earth

4. If you compare it to the non-mosque thing yes he
should but unlike holding it on a Sunday his followers will show on that day. Thing is he is having it in America's yard and every person around has the right to use the same place, free of charge. I think a few hundred thousand people that are not fans of Beck, Fox or the Tea party showing up for a nice picnic on the Mall would be a good thing. No shouting, threatening or anything like that, just hundreds of thousands of people that turn their backs on hate would be a great statement.

5. Glen Beck also has the constitutional right to hold
his breath until he passes out and shuts the f#@k up! Let's hope he exercises that right frequently. Any day and any place of his choosing.

Please let there really be a "New Black Panthers" group for real. I bet those shriveled up old white dudes would wet right through their Depends if some big black brothers showed up. Crybabies. I hate Glenn Blech.

12. Is someone trying to stop him?

I must have missed the big protest rally trying to stop it, or the politicians trying to deter him.

There are always lots of assemblies being held in DC. It is odd that Beck has compared himself to MLK, but there are only so many summer weekends to go around.
