Wow, Mark. That “it’s an uphill battle so why try” attitude get you many places in Utah politics?

For everyone else out there with a bit of fight left in them, Jeff speaks truth here. These two guys are worth keeping an eye on.

So there are the choices. Get involved in changing the political landscape in 2008, or the Mark Towner Downer Club. Take your pick.

Striking my colors? Nah.

Placing limpet mines, grudgingly giving into your nautical theme, on their keels. The problem is, the fuses (the State Party) seem to be defective…

So ye be striking yer colors there matey? As far as them scalawags in the press, they all should be made to walk the plank, especially Bob Bernick. He couldn’t get a quote right if it was handed to him on parchment and wax sealed.

Arrrr

C’mon, Mark. As long as the legislators continue to allow the cowardly single party ticket vote, that’s a sucker’s bet.

If we lived in a town that had a press pool less interested in $$$ and GOP loyalties, and focused instead on issues and histories, I’d take the bet.

As long as the media gives credence to funds raised equaling candidate viability, then, again, it’s a sucker’s bet.

More issues and less bullshit.

Arrr, there be the truth of it matey. I knew you didn’t have the chops to put up or shut up. We both know there be smooth sailing for Admiral Huntsman, Commodore Shurtliff, and Yeoman Ellis. Captain’s Bishop and Chafetz will send broadsides into their respective opponents. Your favorite DINO traitor will sink Captain Dew, but Dew is outgunned as we all know. So where do you and your scalawag crew think you can take down a ship of the GOP fleet? Give me specifics and lets sign articles that if ye succeed in sinking an incumbent officer of the GOP Navy, I will take a cream pie to the face on your show. But if ye fail in your endeavors, ye must take a broadside of pie from the Captain.

I’m already vocal in my opinion of Obama’s stance on FISA.

I am inspired by the Democratic Candidates in UT 1st and 3rd CD’s. I am NOT inspired by prediction sent to me by pretend pirate captains.

Now, if you’re asking me to take a pie in the face if a Republican wins in Utah, you’re obviously as nutty as we all pretend you are. LOL.

Bennion Spencer at 20%? Geesh. Go look at Democratic return in the 3rd CD over the last few cycles. Even the knee jerk vote dem vote is above 21%.

Jeff, get a grip on reality. Morgan will lose 31% to 59% or worse. Bennion Spencer will be lucky to crack 20%.

In regards to FISA, when Obama is our next president, will you be just as vocal in opposition when he is fully informed of the threats, and asks for the same tools as Bush?

Captain Mark

PS I will be willing to take a pie in the face for any Democrat victory over a Republican incumbent. That’s how sure I am about things in Utah not changing. How about you, are you willing to put your face where your blog stands?
