skulzwerks: Utah Has A Problem

Yes the 'life elevated' pretty grate State of Utah has a problem. No the Utah problem is not with Mormons. Mormons and their problems is for another and separate screed. No it's not with Utah's all Republican leadership. Utah's federal, state, and local political offices are an automatic given as Republican. Although Utah's Republican political monopoly could be construed as tyranny. No Utah's problem is not with the alcoholic television news anchors. Utah has a number of alcoholic television news anchors. No Utah's problem is not with the dying and drying Great Salt Lake. That problem will make itself foremost and life threatening in the not too distant future. Utah's currently ridiculous problem is with the 4th congressional district office holder. That would be one Burgess Owens who is for the time being, the representative in Congress for as stated, Utah's 4th Congressional District. Gosh look at me being all grammatically correct and shit like that. Anyway, there was supposed to be an election year debate with all the candidates for Utah's 4th Congressional District BUT, Owens pulled out on account of he had his feelings hurt and he felt insulted by an editorial political cartoon by the Salt Lake Tribune's award winning political cartoonist and that would be Pat Bagley. I've admired Mr. Bagley's work for years and years. The Tribune ran a Bagley editorial cartoon using Owens in caricature. the cartoon was spot on by the way, and the Tribune stood by their cartoonist when Owens went all weepy, bitchy, and played the race card. Owens plays the race card when it suits his political need. Now the real and actual problem with Burgess Owens is that Owens is a bitchy old woman trapped inside a man's body. Owens would more than likely, if there were a change in Utah's dominant political climate, transgender himself into a herself and THEN he/she might find some inner peace and become almost humane. It's possible and might happen in some future time when Utah is not Mormon, Republican, and/or racist. After all, fairy tales can come true and we have Jimmy Durante to thank for that maudlin contribution to cultural tranquility world. Given Owen's monthly mood swings, his being a bitchy old woman trapped inside a grown man's body explains what's up with good old Burgy. The grown man/woman Owens has issues. Now for some Thursday machine art and there will be no gender switching graphics at this present time. ☺
