Utah Republicans finally admit to gerrymandering during current redistricting

Not at all. I think you will find that I discussed this issue with other posters. I was just agreeing with Mr. Hobo's statement. Is there something wrong with having an opinion?
You can't have it both ways. His statement clearly said this thread was about some LGBT message, which it CLEARLY is not. You have said twice now that you agree with that statement.
 
House Speaker Becky Lockhart, R-Provo, said House Republicans have a “fairly large list” of problems with the Senate-passed map. Many interviewed said House members sought maps that may favor the GOP more, help rural candidates more and differently decide how many Republicans from Davis County should be put in the district of Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah.

The Senate map would divide Salt Lake County into three slices. Two of them would be combined with vast rural areas. The third, in western Salt Lake County, would be combined with western, rural Utah County. A fourth district would be created in northern Utah.

Republicans say such a “pizza-slice” plan would ensure all members of Congress would represent both rural and urban areas. Democrats say that is a ploy to dilute their votes in Democratic Salt Lake County to improve odds of electing Republicans in all districts.
Dabakis added, “The fix is in. It’s about raw political power. It’s getting Republican percentages right so you can ensure yourselves continuing 10 years in those congressional seats. ... It’s the only way these maps can be justified.”

Reform groups and Democrats — noting that the committee had vowed not to consider any partisan data in its work — were upset at press reports that House Republicans were pushing to ensure that all districts would be at least 62 percent Republican to help ensure defeat of Matheson.

I stopped reading after you said that I had made an assumption about your city council duties/experiences. Had I assumed, I wouldn't have written it in a form of a question.

But carry on, the world is against me blame everybody but myself rant rant rant bla bla bla cry cry cry insult after insult I hate thriller my organs almost failed i almost died rant rant rant cry cry cry.

You'd think that after your "experiences" you wouldn't be such a pompous dumbass. But I'm mistaken.

And I'm sorry for having different experiences than you. I guess you're right and I'm wrong and I'm just insulting Mormons whenever I get a chance.

Wouldn't it have been a lot easier to just say, "Trout, I'm an idiot. Sorry." Instead, you look even dumber. Yes, I know, I know -- NOT POSSIBLE -- but I think it happened.


Yup, for sure.
 
LOL great comeback. But typical from you.

Here you are, finally, acknowledging Trout's unique greatness in the art of nonsense.

That's what we need on our City Councils, regular guys who go with the flow, everybody's friend and nobodys fool.

Hard to disagree with this logic -- except for the 'regular guy' thing. I haven't had a clean dump in about 6 weeks thanks to my little run in with Gall stones. Jack Wagons.
 
What's the difference between a "clean dump" and a regular dump? Or for that matter, a "clean dump" (if there is such a thing)?
 
Agreed with Log. In short, if when I crap the first wipey is white, fresh, and clean -- well then, you've just had a clean dump.
