Has Anyone Endorsed Cannon?

Friday, October 27th, 2006

Does anyone know if anyone or any Utah-based organization is endorsing Cannon? I checked his website and its just Bush, Sensenbrenner and the NRA.
What about the Governor, Hatch, Bennet? Anyone? Help me?

Tribune Endorses Christian Burridge

Friday, October 27th, 2006

Article here. Video here.
Rep. Chris Cannon has served five terms in Congress with little to show for it. It’s time for a change.
His opponent in the 3rd Congressional District, Democrat Christian Burridge, is an articulate young attorney who practices consumer law. A former college debate champion, he has both a passion for advocacy and [...]

Cannon - “Nobody in Utah is on Minimum Wage?”

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

Yep, you heard it here first. Its hard appreciate how mean and hateful Chris Cannon really is, but the more you listen to him, the more it sinks in.

I really want to be nice and talk about how great Burridge is, but then I am overwhelmed with anger toward this Cannon guy. I [...]

Chris Cannon Meltdown on the “A” Word

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

Whew! Everything was going smoothly during a telephone debate last Friday hosted by the Provo-based Daily Herald until congressional candidate Christian Burridge mentioned Jack Abramoff and Cannon’s ethics problems.
Listen (.mp3) - Listen (.wma)
As if almost on cue, the mention of Abramoff caused Cannon to have a mini-meltdown. Cannon is well versed in the republican PR [...]

Pay attention Utah. These are our WAR veterans. Our soldiers are dying and Bennet, Hatch, Matheson, Cannon, and Bishop are responsible.

Cannon Blames Kids for Pedophilia

Friday, October 6th, 2006

On the KSL NightSide home page (until Big Brother takes it down) you can hear the insane comments Chris Cannon made last night.
“These kids are precocious kids. The world’s a complicated place, and we just need to do the best we can.”
“There are creepy people out there and they just need to avoid them [...]

My Bad

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

Thank you everyone who corrected my assumption that Cannon’s “gaydar” statement would doom his candidacy. I have since become convinced that based on informal consensus, apparently, bigot-confirming-statements only serve to solidify the perception of Cannon’s worthiness to serve his constituents.
And thanks also to Tim H. for this gem as follows
And don’t miss this winner from [...]

Chris Cannon has “Gaydar”? Buh Bye.

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

In reference to the recent public revelations of Rep Foley’s molestation of a minor, Utah Congressman Chris Cannon is quoted in today’s Deseret Morning News, “You don’t need ‘gaydar’ to understand he has certain dispositions,” Cannon said.
Well, you don’t need “bigot-dar” to recognize a bigot either. You just need to wait. Eventually, the bigot comes [...]

The Rule of Law, Martial Law That Is.

Sunday, October 1st, 2006

The 109th US Congress, like a story right out of a Roman History textbook, last week crowned the President, King George. The militaristic, “commander-in-chief” has made the rule of law synonymous with Presidential fiat. The Imperial power was easily wrested once again from the hands of our “lackey Congress.” The President, with the stroke of [...]

Burridge May Well Beat Cannon

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

…for one simple reason, Christian Burridge is a BRILLIANT lawyer (for the little guy), a brilliant man, and a devout Latter Day Saint. Christian’s grasp of the issues, politics, and public policy is legend. That’s why Cannon refuses to debate him.
On the other hand, anybody with a wit of sense knows Chris Cannon [...]

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 [...]
