Whose policies hamstring small business at every turn, hold property rights in contempt and are an embarrassment to the constitution? And create an uproar of protest.
Easy. If you're Mayor Frank Hibbard of Clearwater, Fla, you blame it on Glenn Beck.
The only problem is opposition to the city of Clearwater's heavy-handed actions against Herb Quintero's fish and tackle store and its right to post a mural and, subsequently, the text of the first amendment, have generated derision across the ideological spectrum, from liberal attorney and constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley, the ACLU and the leftist Autonomous media network, as well as libertarians and conservatives.
