Lost tribe found at BYU
Brigham Young University Democrats (there really are some) watched Bush's final State of the Union Address, raised some heck and got in the Washington Post.
Post reporter Joel Achenbach caught the flavor of BYU D-bauchery:
And, of course, Mitt Romney will be on the Super Tuesday ballot and he "might as well be a native son."
Post reporter Joel Achenbach caught the flavor of BYU D-bauchery:
Like so many college kids in America, they weren't going to sit through a SOTU speech without turning it into a drinking game. So it was that every time the president said a certain word ("terror," "enemy," "evil") or mangled the language ("nucular," "Zimbawe"), they bolted down a beverage. Of course, as Mormons, they had to stick to soda. They ingested heroic, indeed sickening, quantities of root beer, ginger ale and 7-Up, even the rather edgy Mountain Dew.Utah's blue blood is running hot because Obama and Clinton are actually running TV spots in the state. "It is also utterly novel," Auchenbach writes. "No one here can recall ever -- ever -- having seen a presidential TV ad in Utah."
And, of course, Mitt Romney will be on the Super Tuesday ballot and he "might as well be a native son."

Hey, I was a BYU Democrat decades ago -- first as an undergrad in the 70s, then again as an instructor (1985-87). Glad to see they're keeping the faith. ..bruce..
