"Sex on the beach with Jon"?
First, he's offering folks a "real" cocktail, now he's crusading to get rid of the loathed private club system.
What's with our teetotaling guv?
He gave the Utah Hospitality Association great hope, saying, "Alcohol is a no-win issue for (Utah) governors, but we'll work on it."
One of three things is going on:
1. Huntsman, a gutsy, devil-may-care risk taker, is willing to risk some of his enormous politcal capital and popularity to take on an issue the LDS Church will oppose.
2. Jon, the pragmatic diplomat, has already met with enough church leaders to know it's safe to proceed on an issue crucial to Utah's economic well being.In any of these cases, someone needs to name a drink after this guy.
3. He's trying to get us blotto, so he can have his way with us.

Now let's see if he can get rid of baptism for the dead.
Lot of good the extra half ounce does when you take away multi-liquor drinks like a Long Island Iced Tea. Let's see, before the new law, waitress to tourist: "Sorry but Utah law requires that the shooter for your boilermaker is only one ounce" and after the new, improved law: "Sorry, tourist, but you are not allowed to have a shot with your beer under any circumstances."
It's enough to you make you just quit drinking.

Doing away with private clubs and allowing 3.2 beer bars to sell alcohol will never happen. This paper ran an editorial the other day that figured Huntsman could be successful. Poppycock.
If anyone thinks for a minute the "church" will allow freedom to drink in Utah, you are nuts. The "church" will not be embarrassed and it would be if it changes its mind and does what Huntsman proposes.
The "church" also would not sit still for anything that would change its control, in social, political and governmental ongoings. It thrives on the fact it has established a theocracy in Utah and will never budge from that.
Utah is Utah and the "church's" heritage will not be compromised.
Two years from now in order to get good liquor and real beer at cheaper cost, we'll still be driving to Evanston, Mesquite and Wendover to waterup. There will still be private clubs and 3.2 bars, and bartenders and servers will still have to read the riot act to tourists who want to catch a drink in the Theocracy.
The editorial, really, is quite thoughtless and inconsiderate for giving drinkers a ray of hope. It will not happen and Tribune editorial writers know that. At least they would know it if they had given the issue some thought.
Where do they get these people?
I submitted this thought to the Deseret News, but it did not pass the censor.
Bottom line: I will be John Saltas a case of his favorite booze if what is proposed is fulfilled.
Liquor by the drink in Utah is a dream.
