Buttars is "the Worst"
Oh, goody - more free publicity for Utah, courtesy of our own Chris Buttars.

The state senator from West Jordan was named "Worst Person in the World" Tuesday by MSNBC's Keith Olbermann on his "Countdown" show, for his idea to introduce a resolution in the Utah Legislature encouraging retailers to say "Merry Christmas" instead of the more generic "Happy Holidays."

Here's the video:



Now, even discounting the fact that Olbermann is attacking Buttars in part because the senator is playing into the "War on Christmas" horse-manure championed by Olbermann's arch-nemesis Bill O'Reilly, the "World's Worst" honor still doesn't make Buttars - or Utah - look good.
