Re: Letter: LDS culture at odds with plight of immigrants

If Trump has his way you'd still be deported. Your husband is an anchor husband.

Re: Letter: How about naming prison for Reagan?

Love this idea

Re: Letter: Trump shows GOP values not Utah values

Real Maverick — Thu, 03 Sep 2015 08:17:51 -0000

Want to know how backwards Utah has become?

Raygun, The Pope, and Trump all appear to be flaming liberals compared to Utah's GOP.

Why do we keep electing so many regressives? Don't we care about our health care system, public education, or environment? Why do we want to empower a party that wants to destroy the middle class and enrich their corporate puppet masters?

Re: Letter: Norwegian police keep them holstered

Ugh

I get so tired of traitors to this country bringing up librule communist Europe.

People over there care about stuff like racism, education, health care, equality, and gun violence. They use science and logical thinking still. So outdated! Because didn't we all learn that thinking was overrated in 1980? Stop doing it!

Let's just continue to let emotions, anger, and hyperbole rule.

We can't do anything about gun violence because it might mean actually having to do something. So let's not.

Let's continue to vote republican and kick the can down the road. The middle class is dead anyway. We all die in the end, right? Christ will be back shortly so let's not do anything.

Re: Letter: Don’t cut Medicare with more seniors on the way

Real Maverick — Wed, 02 Sep 2015 07:52:56 -0000

Oh pick me pick me! I have the solution!

Vote in more anti-gubbamint republicans who claim that Medicare is socialism and that gubbamint can't do anything right. That will fix the problem for sure!

Re: Letter: Thanks for Tracy Aviary

Real Maverick — Wed, 02 Sep 2015 07:50:18 -0000

Is there a way to bulldoze the aviary and put another prison there? Maybe relocate it to the west desert? Taking taxpayer money for personal gain can be so addicting!

Sincerely,

Greg Hughes

Re: Letter: Trump more like Obama, not Hoover

Real Maverick — Wed, 02 Sep 2015 07:47:49 -0000

I thought this was a Frank Overfelt letter at first!

When stupid is this strong there really isn't a point in arguing.

Personally, I just wish we could've had another 8 years of Bush. In the fall of 08 one could easily see the wonderful job he was doing.

Re: Letter: Cougar-hunt policy lacks science

Real Maverick — Tue, 01 Sep 2015 08:00:43 -0000

I think we should blindly trust them.

After all, they're Mormon and republican. What could possibly go wrong?

Re: Comments for

Real Maverick — Tue, 01 Sep 2015 07:58:23 -0000

Hahaha! Think I care what happens to the prison? Think I care about the inmates? Haha! I got my money (well actually it was your money but I stole it from you) and that's all that matters! Want to see my new yacht or mansion high up in the mtns of draper?

If Utahns are truly mad then I issue you a challenge. Vote me out!

If I'm not voted out then I'll continue to do whatever I want!

Sincerely,

Greg Hughes (and the rest of the GOP)

Hahaha! The 900 lbs gorilla I mean representative could never ever ever be bought off! Cmon! Don't be silly. After all, He's republican and Mormon!

This should be an entertaining day on these comment boards!

Re: Letter: Trump over Clinton? Seriously, Utahns?

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 09:45:23 -0000

Of course, because Utahns are dumb partisans

Re: Corroon: Utahns are dying as the ‘Gang of Six’ dithers

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 09:44:00 -0000

The problem is Peter, most legislators flat out don't care. They don't care about the living, they don't care about the young, and they don't care about our future.

They flat out don't care.

Otherwise, we would've expanded Medicaid years ago, invested into public education, and would be developing green energy.

Re: Letter: Trump over Clinton? Seriously, Utahns?

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 09:29:00 -0000

Linda, 1 is a democrat and 1 is a republican. Utahns would elect Satan over Christ if he had a R by his name.

Even after Obama was elected Utahns were the only state to give Bush a high approval rating. Even Texas disliked him

Re: Letter: Which entry into S.L. Valley is the ‘front’?

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 09:27:51 -0000

Refineries donate more to our legislature than the prison, so they can stay while the prison will be moved.

Also, many of our land developing legislators (Hughes/Stephenson) in high positions are from Draper.

Re: Letter of the week: Utah children need more sex education

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 09:25:20 -0000

Gayle doesn't want anyone to talk about sex since she isn't getting any.

And our legislature doesn't want anyone to get an education because they're a bunch of anti-education regressives who want to turn this state into Kansas.

Folks, we can't keep electing anti-gubbamint regressives and expect any progress to be made in health care, education, wages, women's rights, etc.

Re: Corroon: Utahns are dying as the ‘Gang of Six’ dithers

Real Maverick — Sun, 30 Aug 2015 02:32:04 -0000

Ha! In your face! I got my Healthy Utah! Thanks taxpayers! Do you dolts know how much money I'm going to make off the prison relocation? But I'm not going to give you your health care. That would be an entitlement.

If you're really pissed I guess I'll only win by 80 percent instead of 90 percent.

Sincerely,

Greg Hughes

Re: Taxing food one option being floated for Utah Medicaid expansion

Real Maverick — Fri, 28 Aug 2015 23:32:33 -0000

Why not tax big gas, energy solutions, corporations, car dealerships, farmers, banks, or land developers?

Why must it always be as regressive as possible in this state?

Why is our state obsessed with punishing people rather than taking the common sense approach?

Isn't it time we take our state back from the idiots?

Re: Comments for

Real Maverick — Thu, 27 Aug 2015 07:51:39 -0000

I agreed with all of them too.

Sadly, our anti-intellectual legislature will ignore our thoughts and feelings.

Isn't it time we take our state... And our country back from the idiots?

Re: Letter: Granite District sprinklers waste water

Real Maverick — Thu, 27 Aug 2015 07:40:48 -0000

The biggest water wasters are lazy entitled farmers, gubbamint buildings/parks that typically water the roads and cars, and big corp.

But yeah, it's always the individual resident who is asked to conserve.

Frankly, I'm tired of always being given the guilt trip while schools, parks, but corp, and lazy farmers aren't held accountable. One lazy and super subsidized farmer (wish I could be subsidized) wastes more water than all of my neighborhood combined

Re: Letter: Developers, not prison, get the good land

Real Maverick — Thu, 27 Aug 2015 07:38:04 -0000

Hahahaha! Vote against me then! If you people are so angry then vote against me! Hahaha! I bet I'll still blow any demikrat out of the water with 80+ percent of the vote! So suck it! I got my "Healthy Utah" handout! To heck with the rest of you! Carol Frisby just needed to stop being lazy and get a job! The rest of you poors without health care need to stop being so lazy. Don't like what I'm saying? Then vote against me!

Thanks for the free money! Want to see my new yacht? You paid for it! Hope you enjoy higher taxes and slashes to public education. Yall a bunch of chumps!

Sincerely,

Greg Hughes

Re: Virginia TV station balances grief, journalism after fatal on-air shooting

Real Maverick — Thu, 27 Aug 2015 00:36:30 -0000

Is it time yet to actually legislate some gun control? Can we actually do something about it yet?

Or will conservatives continue to put their heads in the sand like usual?

Do we have to have another theater or school shooting before we figure out what the rest of the industrialized world has years ago?

How many more children and innocent adults must be slaughtered before we put the NRA and their horrible ideas out to the shooting range?

Aren't the educated in this country tired of being target practice for the uneducated?

Re: Letter: Explain yourselves, smoke belchers

Real Maverick — Wed, 26 Aug 2015 07:55:13 -0000

Don't tread on me!

I can do whatever I want to my truck!

I'm sure the founding fathers drove oversized diesels all over and warned the citizens that the British were coming to take away their guns!

Re: Letter: Planned Parenthood helps more than Herbert

Real Maverick — Wed, 26 Aug 2015 07:51:52 -0000

Expanding Medicaid would give the Eagle Forum, Sutherland Institute, and the rest of the tea baggers in this state plenty of ammunition to use against Herbie in the primary election.

That's why he's pandering to the far right wing by not expanding Medicaid and by attacking Planned Parenthood.

Aren't we tired of the anti-intellectual idiots who drape themselves in the flag while carrying a bible in one hand and an AR15 in the other? Aren't we sick and tired that they obstruct any progress in this country? The only things they agree to are tax cuts for the rich, wars in the Middle East, and attacks on health care for the poor, minorities, and women.

Isn't it time we took our state... And our country back from the idiots?

Re: Letter: Women pay the price when Herbert buys the lies

Real Maverick — Wed, 26 Aug 2015 07:42:59 -0000

I don't think he's buying into the lies.

I think he knows what's right.

It's not that he has a small brain but a small... Courage.

He's just pandering to the radical right. He doesn't want an even more right winger to attack him.

The anti-intellectual movement is strong right now in this country. Whether it be immigration, the environment, public education, economics, foreign policy, or health care. It's time for moderates and intellectuals everywhere to take their state... And their country back. If the idiots want to stay in this country then they can ride in the back seat and not shut down our country to throw a temper tantrum.
