Cognitive Dissonance On The American Liquor Law Front

We're totally flummoxed on this Church v. State Issue... How 'bout you?

Fascinating story from the Wall Street Journal, which reports that red-neck bible belt Georgians are a-fixin' open up the doors, and to sell demon rum to Sinners, even on (gasp) Sundays:

• Last Call for Dry Sundays

Meanwhile back at the headquarters of the "tea-totalling Utah Taliban," the business genuises at the Utah Legislature are figuring out ways to cut the expenses (and revenues) for the most profitable state-operated entity ever, the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, within the Socialist Monopoly Utah Gummint Holy Scheme:

• Projected Utah liquor cuts will mean more closings
• After hiatus, more liquor law changes are in the works

Somethin' to think about, wethinks, the next time one of these holy-roller GOP skunks from the legislature righteously proclaims that "We're committed to promoting a friendly local Utah busiuness climate," NO?

And please... somebody explain why Utah Legislators always feel the compelling urge to consult "LDS Church Elders," any time they contemplate the need to bring Utah's liquor laws into the mainstream of 20th Century America?

Shouldn't our right wing legislature just "privatize" the liquor business, and turn the whole danged headache over to the "private sector," which they all generally profess to love O So Much?

We're totally flummoxed on this Church v. State Issue, and wonder why our legislative right-wing nutcases don't practice what they preach. How 'bout you?

Just axin...
