You may not have heard the President of the United States of America spoke to the nation yesterday and discussed some pretty important issues: gun control, the housing market, ongoing wars in Afghanistan, the minimum wage. And why haven’t you heard? Because the only thing every fucktard with Internet access* has been talking about since [...]

george-burnett-utah-douche

George Burnett, local town douche from Vernal, has struck upon a great new business gimmick: charging those who self-identify as ‘liberals’ an extra dollar surcharge at his I Love Drilling* smoothie shop. We have a fiscal problem in this country. We’ve got to deal with it or we don’t have a country, so to kind [...]

Whose Church Do You Have to Join to Get a Drink Around Here?

We’ve written extensively* about Utah’s liquor laws, and there’s a recent developed that just makes me want to go home, drink, and violently beat my wife and dog.

gun-violence

Since the recent shootings at Aurora and Sandy Hook—and everywhere else—there’s been plenty of 2nd Amendment talk. Piers Morgan and Alex Jones blathered at each other*. Some random Marine told a random blonde CNN anchor he wouldn’t register his guns if a certain law was passed.

One thing you can always trust Republicans to do is stick to their principles—regardless of how asinine those principles happen to be. And that’s admirable, in a way. It’s good to know where our geriatric senior Senator from Utah stands on the issues instead of having to worry what he’ll do each time a topic comes up. [...]

abort-orrin-hatch

Remember how we were supposed to vote for Orrin Hatch so he could be Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee? Well, the caveat he continually forgot to mention was that would only be possible if Republicans gained control of the Senate. Turns out, the GOP actually lost two Senate seats.

About 12 hours from now, we’ll find out God doesn’t exist (or at least isn’t Mormon) as Barack Obama is reelected. But until then, here’s some advice: Don’t vote. Or do. Whatever. I’m not your mom. We won’t be covering the election minute-by-minute—we’ll let CNN’s journalism holograms do that. But we will be covering the [...]

Just Vote for the Other Guy

congress

You may not know this, but next Tuesday will decide more than just who is President for the next four years. There’s also this body of legislators called Congress and they have a few minor federal responsibilities like taxes and declaring war. And Tuesday will also decide who many those members of Congress will be. Remember when [...]
