Utah Republican Apologists

Saturday, September 23rd, 2006

Listening to the floor speech of a Utah Republican legislator named Scott Wyatt over on the new Utah State House Democrats blog I was struck by the apologetic tone of his reason for voting for another tax cut for wealthy Utahns and against education. I’m soooo pleased the democrats are finally using the audio recording [...]

Death by a Thousand Cuts

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

Death by a thousand cuts. That’s how they kill elephants in Africa. Before guns were invented, and still today for tribes that have none, you just keep stabbing that elephant until it falls over.
I can’t think of another way to describe what Emily Hollingshead (Senate District 28) and Larry Daniel (House District 72) are doing [...]

Congratulations Congressman Burridge!

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

Only a day after I accurately described Chris Cannon as an American Traitor, he gets listed among the top five most corrupt members of Congress (the House) to watch.
A few of his close friends who used to be on that list include Randy “Duke” Cunningham, now serving an eight-year jail term for bribery and Rep. [...]

Utah Tax Reform

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

(Edited from the author’s own blog)
Yesterday’s special session of the Utah legislature went about as expected. Having already obtained the support of the Republican party, Huntsman’s tax reform proposals were all passed. Nor is Huntsman through; in an interview on KCPW today, he acknowledged that the legislation passed was only a first step in his [...]

Chris Cannon is an American Traitor

Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

Each day brings another shockingly anti-American assault on the US Constitution. Today it came from our very own Congressman Chris Cannon; you know, the one who shrilled for the party to impeach Clinton; the most expensive, national embarrasment, and waste of time in modern history, Oh, and the one just named in the top five [...]

Wikipedia an Apt Experiment in Pure Democracy

Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

Those of you who follow the subject of the theory of Evolution of the Internet, are well familiar with the ongoing discussion surrounding the “problems” that arise in the greatest of all democracies, The Internet.
Statments in the article re-printed below are eerily similar to the statements in a recent comment on a previous post The [...]

George Bush Owes Us An Apology

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

Never in my life, did I imagine I would hear a president of the United States say the things he said in the Rose Garden on Friday. George Bush owes us an apology.
What follows was ripped of from here.
Our Fearless Leader,
And that Common Article III says that there will be no outrages upon human [...]

Drug Dealing

Monday, September 18th, 2006

So I’m watching special congressional oversight hearings on C-Span (LOVE C-Span) that also took place today.
They’re talking about the corruption of the whole Halliburton - no-bid contractor, cost-plus abuse.
And among the witness — all former Halliburton employees — is a nice middle aged, all American workingwoman, former teacher, who worked as a bookkeeper in Iraq.
She [...]

Mr. Bush’s War…An International Disaster

Saturday, September 16th, 2006

George Bush–along with Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, and Paul Wolfowitz–have led this nation into one of the great disasters of the last century. This war now threatens to become a war between Islam and the West. When Mr. Bush used 9/11 as a pretext for invading Iraq, a nation at peace with the United States, [...]
