A Hangout for Utahns & Those Interested in Utah Opinions
I came across a website today called “Real Democrats USA.” In particular there is an article entitled “Welcome” written by “Women for Fair Politics” ranting about the unfair treatment Senator Hillary Clinton received in her run for the Democratic nomination. This is a portion of that message:
“This website was founded in the desire to reveal […]
I had the pleasure this Sunday evening of yet again visiting Valley Forge in southeast Pennsylvania. What an honor it is to stand in this spot of American history. I only had a few short minutes this trip (well, ok, a few minutes that resulted in an hour), yet I enjoyed snapping a few photos […]
Three years ago I became increasingly disatisfied with the bureacracy within the FAA, an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation. The bureacracy had created a vacuum in which good-hearted, efficient, and positive people within a short time became non-authoritative, submissive, negative, “yes”-people. In a nutshell I created a five-page document outlining where I believed the […]
All partisanship aside, what in the world is Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts doing by wasting tax-payer money introducing a bill to congratulate the Boston Celtics (co-sponsored by Senators Christopher Dodd, Judd Gregg, Edward Kennedy, Patrick Leahy, Joseph Lieberman, John Reed, John Sununu, and Sheldon Whitehouse)? Of course this type of behavior is not limited to […]
Associated Press Writer, Michael J. Sniffen, reports the “IG criticizes FAA’s training of air traffic controllers.” To those of us who work in the ranks of the FAA this is not news. The FAA needs to do better.
I am always surprised at the lack of understanding of so-called “progressive” individuals. For some reason there are some who believe our Forefathers were misguided in their clear desire to create the Electoral College in the Constitution. Yet here we go again with another cry baby wanting to eliminate the Electoral College by replacing it with a popular […]
Smaller government does not necessarily result in more economic freedom but it is interesting to note that the two nations at the top of the Index of Economic Freedom are Hong Kong and Singapore, nations that are nearly half the size of the U.S. Government. Yes, the United States placed 5th on the list (of 157 […]
Candidates for county, state, and federal positions are making their way to officially declare their intent to run for election. Some of these races are going to be quite exciting to watch:

At risk of awaking my left-wing friends I want to relate today’s experience. I woke up this morning at 5:00 AM due to a nightmare. I wiped my sleepy eyes for a few seconds and stared up at the dark ceiling. The thought then came to my mind, “this little quagmire called Social Security is […]
I was conversing with a fellow employee a couple days ago regarding the FairTax. During the conversation I defended some of the simple premises of the FairTax, among them the riddence of double-taxation and a more equitable solution to tax everyone (including foreign visitors and illegal aliens), the helping of the poor, and the ultimate “sayonara” to […]
