Your nomination for Beast?
Super Dell Schanze, the Libertarian candidate for governor, has autodialed voters to warn that Gov. Jon Huntsman is an "anti-Christ socialist." According to the bankrupt computer entrepreneur:It's not name-calling. It's just stating a fact. . . . People don't realize that because he's portrayed completely falsely in the media.Super Dell has a point. I searched the web and can't find one korporate media agency that has reported that Huntsman is the Beast or even a lesser demon. Somehow reporters manage to overlook his multiple heads and horns.
What is exciting, however, is that Super Dell has opened the box of anti-Christ speculation. One Tribune letter writer suggests it is not Huntsman, but Mitt Romney who will bring about the Apocolypse. Others point to Barack Obama or President Bush.
This is fun. Let's examine the signs of the anti-Christ:
- Youthfully attractive — Huntsman, Mitt and Obama in. Orrin Hatch, state Sen. Chris Buttars and John McCain out.
- Mesmerizing speaker — Eliminates Chris Cannon, Buttars, again, and President Bush.
- Idolized by the news media and public — Paris Hilton, Huntsman, Rachel Ray, the Osmonds and the cast of High School Musical in. House Speaker Greg Curtis, Gayle Ruzicka and Buttars, again, eliminated.
- Rises rapidly to political power and has horns — Super Dale and most Utah Democrats out. Buttars, finally, in.

i like high school musical. zach efron is so hot right now.
I would nominate the Salt Lake Tribune for Beast, but since it, like nearly all newspapers, is in gradual decline, I'll have to think of someone else.
You're having more fun than the law allows. Schanze is having more fun than you are. Huntsman and most Democrats and Republicans today operate in a socialist context, almost everything they do is in some degree socialist. We have been going more that way for a long time. For Schanze to call Huntsman anti-Christ is a bold statement for a Mormon, since Huntsman has close connections to LDS leaders. So he has beat the Trib to the anti-Mormon punch. Again, he is right. "anti-Christ" is not necessarily the devil, or any singular personage of great evil. It is all who act against the principles of Christ. Socialism is definitely anti-Christ. Oh, yeah. Mormons were socialist in 1830. They found out it doesn't work, but when the Fabian socialists came to town, they decided to lean mainstream.
