Allowing the silly Satan's Plan resolution to even be discussed could be seen as a healthy indication of free speech, since (if there had been a quorum of delegates still in the room) it would have been voted down, down, down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21680780.post-77776823052577573532007-04-30T10:55:00.000-06:002007-04-30T10:55:00.000-06:00It will be interesting to see if her daughter gets...It will be interesting to see if her daughter gets rebelious and does the opposite of what mama says.

I agree with Mike Jones... the polarizing speak always comes out during convention time... on both sides. Not that I like that... I think politicians have a duty to find a "third way" -- but they never do.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14072970283900293402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21680780.post-25167070819141620842007-04-30T00:44:00.000-06:002007-04-30T00:44:00.000-06:00I Was an LDS Republican and im sorry to say yes Th...I Was an LDS Republican and im sorry to say yes They Do Really Believe this. Some of The Slightly Liberal Republicans Like My Dad Can't Bare The Extreme Republicans. I'm Still Trying to find out Who started this Extremism. Way back when Republicans and Democrats never slung Mud. Now all Campaigns (Except the Jon Huntsman vs Scott Matheson one they are both good freinds to this day and that rase was a breath of fresh air)Sling Mud.

You have to remember that she's speaking to the most conservative people in Utah County. She spent a fair bit of time playing to the audience. <BR/><BR/>Her problem was that the professor in question had closed his mind to Dick Cheney. That's a reasonable complaint. I agree that faculty should keep an open mind to all voices, not just those they agree with. If that's what Enid meant, then fair enough.<BR/><BR/>The interesting thing is that she then did exactly what she accused the professor of doing. It went something like this: <BR/><BR/>"I don't like that this professor had nothing to learn from Cheney, therefor, my daughter has nothing to learn from that professor". <BR/><BR/>Don't get too caught up in what's said at the Utah County Convention. Doing so is like using extreme Democrats to characterize the entire Democratic party.Mike Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14994910576075859974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21680780.post-39267982392547521192007-04-29T21:42:00.000-06:002007-04-29T21:42:00.000-06:00As far as I recall Enid Greene's religion has neve...As far as I recall Enid Greene's religion has never been fully confirmed--it was ambiguous when she was in Congress as it is today. Is she or is she not LDS? I've heard both.
