Crazy Pills

Utah's leadership is taking crazy pills over this 4th seat. They need to listen to Senator Bennett.

A perfect example of the craziness is LaVarr Webb's treatment of the topic in Friday's Utah Policy.

After pointing out all the reasons this is a crap idea (he makes great points, by the way), he closes out his essay with an endorsement of the current actions.

None of this makes any sense.

I love Senator Bob Bennett. So often, he is the voice of reason.

As for LaVarr Webb, I like him too.

I think he is simply saying that it would be better if we didn't go in with DC. But, if DC is going to get their seat, the damage is already done and we might as well get our seat too.

As an idealist, I know that you would prefer him to say, "Give me liberty or give me death!" But, the older one gets, the more pragmatic one becomes. And, well, LaVarr is not exactly a spring chicken.

This makes perfect sense. Since Hatch and Bennett will be in the U.S. Senate until Christ returns (they are two of the three Nephites), other Utah politicians are running out of patience. The line is long: Urquhart, Bramble, Curtis, Hughes, Valentine...

Oh, don't forget Towner and Ridgway (giggle).

If the election is held in 2007, sitting legislators could run for Congress and still keep their legislative seat if they lose.

If may not make sense for Utah and the rest of the country, but it does make sense for the people running the Legislature.
