Send Happy Holiday Cards to Rep. Chris Butters!
Note - this isn't my post on DKOS - I just wanted to share the HOLIDAY joy!

Utah Senator Chris Buttars needs some holiday Cheer. Let's help him out!


by SRA Julianne
Tue Dec 02, 2008 at 12:22:38 PM PST

State legislator Chris Buttars, the same Senator who said in a 2006 radio interview that ""Brown v. Board of Education is wrong to begin with," who has been caught up in a number of racial slurs throughout the years, has introduced the most important resolution of his career to the Utah Senate.

http://deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,705267557,00.html">The Deseret News ran a story this morning that quotes Sen Buttars referring to 'the war on Christmas.'

Senator Buttars wants to pass an unenforceable resolution asking retailers in Utah to wish shoppers Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays.

* SRA Julianne's diary :: ::
*

I am a blue citizen in a red state. Lots could be done here to improve the liberties and quality of life for Utahans. I don't need to tell people that this is just not one of them.

So, I am asking everyone to send Senator Buttars and his wife their Holiday spirit! I am not one for cards, but this special season, I will make one exception, and that is to wish the Buttars the best holiday ever. Will you help?

Mail cards to:

Chris and Helen Buttars
9241 Lisa Ave
West Jordan, UT 84088-8535

Ecards are great too! Sen Buttars' email address is dbuttars@utahsenate.org.

Happy Holidays!

8. I understand the reason -- but I don't want to send that card. An 'unhappy holiday' card maybe.

14. He might like this one better, since it's patriotic

And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerve in the brain of Jupiter. But may we hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of thought in these United States will do away with this artificial scaffolding, and restore to us the primitive and genuine doctrines of this most venerated reformer of human errors.

-Thomas Jefferson, Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823
