The Kids Are OK
A group of history and constitution students from South Davis Liber Academy, a home school cooperative, were watching the floor debate in the Senate Friday, including an appearance by U. S. Sen. Orrin Hatch.

After the usual lawmaker fawning over Utah's senator-for-life -- including Democrat Ed Mayne's assertion that he and Orrin "go way back" -- the kids were reluctantly discussing what they learned.

Discussion Leader: "So did you find it interesting? What did you see happening?"

Student: "Umm. Politics."

D. L.: "Politics?"

Second Student: "You know, brown nosing."
