Gotta’ Connect With Your Constituents
In election politics, the key to getting elected is appealing to the voters.
If a person wanted to court the vote of a rural community where hunting is a popular past-time, he/she would not vocally condemn guns….
It says a lot about the state of Utah when a state senator would go on the record saying things like this……….
“Homosexuality will always be a sexual perversion. And you say that around here now and everybody goes nuts. But I don’t care. “
“They’re mean. They want to talk about being nice. They’re the meanest buggers I have ever seen.”
“It’s just like the Muslims. Muslims are good people and their religion is anti-war. But it’s been taken over by the radical side.”
“What [are] the morals of a gay person? You can’t answer that because anything goes.”
“They’re probably the greatest threat to America going down I know of.”
I’m not gay, but I find these remarks to be patently offensive…..But allegedly state senator Chris Buttars does not. He repeatedly says things that our most offensive relative wouldn’t even say.
