QUOTE OF THE DAY
“In considering which candidate to endorse, The Salt Lake Tribune editorial board had hoped that Romney would exhibit the same talents for organization, pragmatic problem solving and inspired leadership that he display ed here more than a decade ago. Instead, we have watched him morph into a friend of the far right, then tack toward the center with breathtaking aplomb. Through a pair of presidential debates, Romney ’s domestic agenda remains bereft of detail and worthy of mistrust.
Therefore, our endorsement must go to the incumbent, a competent leader who, against tough odds, has guided the country through catastrophe and set a course that, while rocky , is pointing toward a brighter day .
The president has earned a second term. Romney , in whatever guise, does not deserve a first.”
The Mormon Salt Lake Tribune endorsing President Obama over Mitt Romney.
Well, that’s sure gonna leave a mark in the morning.

By what measure is the Salt Lake Tribune “Mormon”? They have a joint operating agreement with the Deseret News (which is very definitely Mormon), but other than that, providing a counterpoint to the LDS party line has always pretty much been the whole point of the Trib.
If the Deseret News endorses the President, I will eat my undergarments.

Oh Yes ! It is such a bad thing that the newspaper in UTAH endorsed Barack Obama. Because we all know that everyone in Provo and Salt Lake City, Sandy, Ogden, Saint George ,Taylorsville , Orem and West Jordan are immigrants from Kenya and vote Democratic.

To be clear about what Jeff says the Mormon Church owns the other news paper. Some of the staff at this paper are on doubtedly Mormons, and they will be given a lot of s*** at church tomorrow
Assuming that someone does not burn the newspaper to the ground this may be good for Salt Lake City
Pardon my voice to text I now have a broken arm
But I laughed my ass off everytime the Mormon churches embarrassed
