Opening Day of Utah Legislature

Today was the first day of the 2006 Utah Legislative session. Members of the Green Party of Utah(distributing billion dollar bill budget prioritiy flyers), Shundahai Network (distributing windmill energy pinwheels), and Pom Poms Not Bomb Bombs (delivering cheers for entertainment) “welcomed” back Utah legislators with the messages below(delivered by the Radical Cheerleaders).

I met the author of SLC Spin, who has also posted an article on his meeting with me and Green Jenni today. Jenni and I are radical cheerleaders.

Pass Some Legislation
For Health and Education
Utah needs to look and see
How the laws hurt you and me
Serve the people, Serve the people, Serve the people
Now!



and
We’re Pom Poms Not Bomb Bombs
And we don’t take no mess!
We’re gonna give Chris Buttars
We’re gonna give Chris Buttars
We’re gonna give Chris Buttars a science test!
So stand up and fight back and say what must be said!
If we don’t take some action
Science in school is dead!



and
my back is achin’
my bra’s too tight
my body’s shakin’
from left to right

say uh! ungawa
people got the powah’
(3X)

my heart is poundin’
my shoes don’t fit
way things are soundin’
i just can’t sit

say uh! ungawa
people got the powah’
(3X)

we stand together
we can’t be stopped
we’ll take our message
right to the top

say uh! ungawa
people got the powah’
(3X)

say UH!

  1. Your pictures turned out better than mine. These look nice.

  2. I was just looking at the Chicago Tribune’s photo section today and the very last picture is an AP photo of you all cheering (from the back). Congrats! Very neat.
    Here’s the (very long) link.
