Orrin Hatch: Jesus Would Never Tax The Rich

Via Raw Story: Senator Orrin Hatch took to the floor yesterday to complain about President Obama’s citation of The Bible to justify progressive taxation. Speaking to a group of mostly-conservative politicians at the annual National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday, the president proved that conservatives do not have a monopoly on using religion to advocate for [...]...

On January 24, 2012 United Sates President, Barack Obama delivered the annual State of the Union address to the United States Congress.

So, I am just going to say it now and get it out of the way, watching Senator Casey Anderson (R-Cedar City, District 28) propose legislation is a bit like watching clowns continually come out of a car labeled “mind numbingly bad.” Just for kicks, you could even add the word “Express.” I have  already told you Anderson’s brilliant idea to [...]...

Bills to Watch: HB 298, Motor Vehicle Safety Inspection Amendments, Rep. John Dougall

Why else would he be proposing HB 298, Motor Vehicle Safety Inspection Amendments? A bill that, based on his own arguments in the media, is a bad decision. HB 298 would eliminate the [...]...
