Please Utah, I’m begging you, enough of Jason Chaffetz already! I really hate to break the news to you people, but the United States Congress is not some boarding school that you can just send an unruly child off to to get him out of your hair for a few years. Once you get him back, you can sit him in the corner, or send him to bed early, or whatever you like.But please, take him back!
This guy gives me nightmares. He looks like the lawyer your ex wife sends to court to try and get your underwear and socks in the divorce settlement. Not only that, but he is a small and petty man, much like Mein Furor. Take his longstanding feud with his predecessor, Darryl Issa for instance, he can’t let a slight go by unanswered.
He is also a two faced hypocrite. He has pilloried Hillary on her e-mail server, going so far as to grill the Director of the FBI on her server, while he uses Private E-mail to conduct House business. This is allowable because Congress exempted itself from the FOIA and the Federal Records Act.
Enough of this shit already, can we try a breath of fresh air? Then let me introduce you to Mr. Stephen Tryon. He is a career military combat veteran, awarded the Bronze Star. He is a West Point graduate, with a Masters from Stanford University. He has started, grown and runs a successful small business, he is not a career politician.
Stephen is passionate about the issues. At the moment he is taking Jason Chaffetz to task over Chaffet’s craven support of state and local counties to redraw the boundaries of the Ute reservation. the court has ruled int he Ute’s favor for 40 years now, but Jason Chaffetz is a slow learner.
Stephen has an impressive list of stances on the issues on his website. Just to highlight, he wants to fix Social Security by removing the earnings cap and capping benefits for the extremely wealthy. He wants to economically revitalize rural America, make college affordable, he wants to fix the budget by keeping politics out of it, raise taxes, lower spending and remove fraud and waste. And he wants to combat climate change for good measure.
Come on people, this is a no brainer here! Utah does not appear to love dem some Trump. Let’s take advantage of this to take out some trash. Stephen is a new contributor here at the Kos, let’s show him some Koslove! He is also listed on our own facorite 90for90.org, you can go there to research other progressive UT candidates, I will be doing so.
