Whiney boy is pissed at Rmoney. Boo Hoo

Even the republicans are pissed at the republicans. It doesn't get much better than this.

The Blaze radio host Glenn Beck revealed on Monday that he deeply regrets giving Mitt Romney the gift he gave him when the former Massachusetts governor ran for president. Beck revealed that he gave Romney a rare, first-edition copy of President George Washington‘s farewell address for which he never even received a thank you.

“I was trying to cement in his mind, ‘You have run an honorable race,’” Beck said said, explaining the rationale behind the gift. “‘I don’t agree with you on everything. But please understand the time that we’re in, and if you win, you have to be George Washington.’”

Beck said that the farewell address lists everything that he believes is “wrong with the country” right now. He said he gave the copy to Romney’s son explaining that this was his personal copy.

“They’re really rare and expensive, and I never even got a thank-you note,” Beck said, shaking his head. “Never even got a thank-you note. Pisses me off to this day.”

“And the more I hear about Mitt Romney, the more it pisses me off,” Beck added.

as ass wipe in the guest bathroom. Beck is nowhere near the "money class" that would be due a thank you note from the Rmoney's it's about time the fucking moron figured it out.

I didn't put it in originally because I cannot stand looking at him, no less listening to him. It blows me away that this guy reportedly makes 80M a year? What a waste of money.

Romney doesn't strike me as a thank you note kind of guy.

Beck is a idiot for trying to ingratiate himself to Romney.

When one Mormon millionaire gives another Mormon millionaire something - I'm sure Glenn was expecting some high profile payback. That's how the Church works - one hand washes the other.
