One state solution. The other “state” is a fiction.

Yes. There must be a North Utah and a South Utah in order to prevent civil war!

Romney. He should have been the one tied to the roof of his car and never untied.

I hate mitt. I know that’s wrong. Got banned over Mitt once and would do it again. Mitt, reed, Flake, Orin, .... liberals one and all. I guess it’s tough being god of your own Kolob planet while denying the grace of Jesus Christ.
