blog_post-logo_tag

Utah Democrats have recognized the inevitable – that they must begin appealing to the broader Mormon base in Utah or risk going extinct.

Zwicky

Um, as you totally already know, the LDS Church does not, like, you know, get involved in politics. Like, ever. Duh. Tubular. Let’s go to the mall.

Oh Fuck. The Race Is Over. It’s Romney. #Alcoholism #Suicide

Terrifying-Mitt-Romney

Well, that’s that. The race for the Republican nominee is over.
