Salt Lake Tribune: Panel Leader Unveils Salt Lake County-splitting Plan

Added Bonus: We can't wait to see macho Leg 10 Rep Dixon Pitcher duking it out with Leg 9 GOP Rep Jeremy Peterson to find out who will henceforth represent the citizens of the consolidated House Districts nine and ten

Fascinating story today from the Salt Lake Tribune this morning, reporting that the neoCON Republicans in the Utah legislature are about ready to carve up Salt Lake County into four separate congressional districts:
Ya wanna see Salt Lake County split into pieces like Berlin in the cold war era, folks? That's what your nitwit GOP legislators have up their sleeves.

And here's another astonishing repercussion of this plan which will seriously slam those of us in Weber County.

The GOP redistricting committee is planning to take away one Utah House Representative seat from Weber County, and give it to the wacko right wing morons in Davis County. Can't wait to see macho GOP Leg 10 Rep Dixon Pitcher duking it out with GOP House Rep Jeremy Peterson (District 9) to find out who will henceforth represent the citizens of the consolidated House Districts nine and ten.

Good catch, Curm.  Hilarious!  A true "man bites dog" story if ever there was one.

Our leaders fuss about things like this when we are at the edge of the precipice.

The charts that really caught my eye were 1, 2, and 4.

Off topic but just too good not to post.  Homeowners in Florida tried to foreclose on a house the owners paid cash for and did not take out a mortgage for. Went to court. Judge found for the homeowners and told Bank of America to pay the homeowners' legal fees. For five months, Bank of America ignored calls, letters from homeowners atty and didn't pay. So the homeowners foreclosed on the local Bank of America Branch.  Deputies showed up with moving trucks ready to take all furniture, computers, cash from the cash drawers, etc.   Sixty minutes later, the homeowners had a check for their legal fees in hand.  Love it!  Story and film  here.
