Bob Bennett is a pile of crap. The federal Government is gobbling up land in his state left and right. They are driving down tax revenues and preventing Oil Shale leases. Ken Salazar belongs in prison. The man is the reason why Oil is 80 bucks a barrell even with a very awful economy. Bob Bennett never stands for Utah! Bennett voted to confirm CASS SUNSTEIN! That should end his career. Speaking of Liberal Republican Mormons Mitt Romney was terrible on Cavuto and is not definitely not to be trusted on Abortion. Romney does not get it and I am glad we have 18 months before the 2012 election gets into high gear. I hope Mitten is clobbered before Iowa, Mitt Romney and Bob Bennett are the problem and not the solution! Kudos to your selection of Daniels. Daniels is a fine choice. Kasich and Palin still have my heart along with the Washington’s Finest Politician Jim DeMint! Jim DeMint is my hero!

He is a sterling example of everything that is wrong with establishment Reublicans. Utah is probably the safest R seat in the country. We should have a conservative superstar representing that state, not a moderate squish.

The GOPs electoral problem is that we don’t have enough principled conservatives even in our strongest seats. There is no reason to settle for anything less than outstanding conservatives in these seats and we should aggressively primary all of the Bob Bennett’s of the world and bring in real conservative leadership

but not because of this particular vote, which is meaningless.

There is no real way to segregate federal revenues. Even if there were, saying the SS “surpluses” can’t be spent would only mean the other spending would be added to the deficit, not that it would be eliminated. In case anyone hasn’t noticed, adding to the deficit seems to be a specialty of this Congress and this President. So what is the point, exactly?

Besides, SS surpluses are dwindling fast. It’s like closing the barn door after all the horses have escaped, and expecting a pat on the back for it.

In a state the size of Utah, it’s hard to believe that this idiot beat out everyone else for the Senate seat. Of course with what I’ve learned about politics since becoming the Republican nominee for the 12 Illinois Congressional Seat, nothing surprises me any more.

It would be helpful to have underlying documentation for Erick’s assertion. It’s not that I am skeptical, but I want to pass on this information to others in Utah and I would like to be able to site where this came from instead of trying to look it up. Thanks.

Bennett is one example of voters largely going against their own principles.

This strange phenomenon has puzzled me ever since conservative Idaho kept re-electing liberal Frank Church.

Irrational behavior.

Here, in the state with the shape only slightly more interesting than Colorado, we’re scared of not being liked. It’s a cultural thing. It’s a Mormon thing.

This is why people like Bob Bennett and Orrin Hatch (and Frank Church in Idaho) continue to stay in office. We are fearful to elect a true conservative who will go to Washington and open a six-pack of whoop-ass — besides, we know “six-pack” refers to beer, and we don’t drink either.

Utah is the Sally Fields of America… “You like me? You really like me?” Inside the state we are regularly served stories from our mind-numbing local news about this famous Mormon or that famous Mormon. We want everyone to love us. We want to be accepting and kind and good. As a culture we are so desperate to be liked and considered one of the cool kids we’re willing to sell out the very qualities and principles that make Utah such a great place to live.

Luckily the fevered pitch of nonsense in politics has started to wake us up. We’re finally realizing the pioneers weren’t patty-cake pansies and it’s time to stand up for what’s good and right–damn the consequences. We are also beginning to see that milk-toast phony conservatives like Bob Bennett need to spend more time with their families and less time (not) representing us.

The tide is changing, this blog and ads by The Club for Growth are beginning to make a difference. But the pressure needs to continue — we still have a lot of Sally Fields to turn around. Trust me Utah, do what’s right and people will like you. They will really, really like you.

… brought to you by the economically ignorant.

Social Security surplus funds are invested in government bonds, and then that revenue is spent on other programs. Were that to stop, the Social Security trust fund would receive no return on the money it’s not using.

This attack is simply stupid, not dishonest. I suppose that’s a step in the right direction.

John McCain must go as well. His defeat in the primary is at least as important as that of Bob Bennett, if not more so. I’d much rather confront the liberal enemy when he resides in the other camp, than in our midst. John McCain has shown a raging, rampant disregard, if not outright disdain, for the US constitution for 5 1/2 years of each of his 6 year terms in office. He only becomes a plaid-wearing conservative during his re-up campaigns.

What’s up with you folks in the southwest? We where I reside have plenty of libs in the Senate already–we require some real representation from you to offset the ACLU lawyer and the spiteful troll who supposedly “represent” me. I don’t even bother writing them, as the former gives my thoughts the same regard as she gives the US constitution, and the latter can’t read. Liberal republicans are the real enemy–politically speaking, of course.

I’m not from Utah, but I’ve read about her and heard her speak. Seem’s to be getting quite a few Conservative endorsements…also seems to have the right ideas on health care…just a thought.
