Today’s Deseret News has a piece on the Utah Senate race in West Jordan in which incumbent Butt-arse (my pet name for Chris Buttars) is fighting to retain. According to the article, A Dan Jones poll reveals that the race is statistically a tie.
Butt-arse has demonstrated, through his words and actions over the years, that he is against anything that involves people making choices for themselves. His mission is to have as much government interference in peoples’ private lives as possible.
Butt-arse’s past positions resulting in proposed legislation include anti-gay clubs in schools, anti-gay marriage or gay rights, and anti-evolution and pro-creationism theory ("Intelligent Design" – an attempt to refute evolution), as well as tuition tax credits (the precursor to vouchers).
Here’s a quote by Butt-arse that I found on the website linked below:
“Well, there’s a lot of things we vote on that we don’t understand, but I would rather stand on the principle of ‘let’s go for it.’ “ — Salt Lake Tribune quotes Chris Buttars
Be sure to check out this site and encourage everyone in District 10 to vote against Chris Butt-arse!
