  • UN to Iran: You have 31 days to complete your bombs! Please hurry so we don't have to do anything.

    The UN has waited long enough for Iran to finish their bomb, now they have decided to extend their waiting 31 days. They would hate to have to do anything. Question for UN, if Iran doesn't stop, what actions are you going to take? "Actions" being the key word, I don't want to know what you are going...
  • Time for Utah tax reform

    I read this article from deseretnews.com and wasn't shocked. I have lived in four different States, all in the west, and found Utah's taxes to be the worst. Every year, i will out my taxes and fear what the Utah form has in store for me. I always receive a wonderful refund from Federal, and typically...

  • Trucks Carried Iraqi WMD To Syria

    Here is another must read from Sweetness & Lights.

  • Goodbye, and hope the door hits ya.

    Deseret News is reporting that Utah ACLU director Dani Eyer is stepping down. He was a poster child for the ACLU rising quickly in rank. He was the one who waisted months of our lives over the Main street plaza deal. (which we all know was a great addition to the city) Now they are looking for a replacment...
  • Rocky forces personal agenda on Utahns and others

    Rocky has once again, shown how far off he is from the representation of his people. He continues to abuse his power as a Mayor to push his personal agenda. How far are you willing to let him go, Salt Lake? How long will you let him embarrass you and your beliefs? You CAN do something about this. Find...

  • World War III Begins?

    I was waiting for this to happen, and it did. This will result in some casualties in the US at some point. Although our homeland defense to this point has been successful in preventing acts of terror, when Al’Qaida actives all its sleepers (which it appears to have done) they will squeak one through...

  • I am a Patriot, and come from a long line of Patriots

    I couldn’t help but to brag today. My brother and I found a link in our genealogy that we working to validate. If it turns out to be correct, which I confident it will.

  • Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. just lost huge points here at UtahPatriots.com

    Seems that the Gov. has thrown his support behind McCain for 2008. Sorry Gov. but you realllllly are not representing the voice of Utahns with this one.

  • Utah Democratic Party shows their true colors.

I thought it would be a good laugh. When i clicked on the link for the section entitled "Party Platform" i left America...

  • Laura Ingraham is right

    Last night on the O’reilly Factor, Laura made the comment that Israel needed to get as much done as possible before the international community intervenes and enforces a cease fire. This is a mentality that I wish President Bush’s father had when he was in the white house. When American forces stopped...
  • Stem Cell Debate Split

    This is interesting to me. One of the only areas that you can split conservatives is in the one area that pulls them together. Religion. Depending on your religious views of the soul, different religious beliefs can play a role as to the ethics of stem cell research. While this is far from the fall of...
  • Sorry, but something needs to be done about the Polygamists!

    I getting really sick of all the press and horror stories about Polygamists, yet nothing is being done. I am the first to stand up for religious rights, but we also need to abide by the laws of the land. Polygamy is illegal. And Utah doesn’t seem to be doing anything about it. We know they are doing...
