AG Reyes reveals what he's got. Two big ones to rent for a million each to the Utah tax payers so he can feed a small bevy of foreign lawyers to defend Utah's Defense of Marriage Law. I say, if you really have to, buy local, hire local. You will get the same result.
In fact you could have a third grader write the appeal on a napkin and it will do as well and as the recipient of the two million, she will be a better investment. Why, because the outcome is going to depend on what the current Supreme Court Justices believe right at this moment in their hearts and heads about it and they will then find the language to validate that belief regardless of the ammunition the lawyers give them.
Furthermore, my conservative friends, this is another example of taxpayer money being used against the will of many Utah tax payers. It's what occurs in a democracy. Remember? Like health care reform.
While, unlike the moderates like me, many liberals will claim the State can't do what it wants to do, I know it can, I just wish it would do so inexpensively and locally. I also wish that the conservatives would just use charity to take on this fight, just like they want charity to take on the needs of all needing health care, and spare the money for--something worthwhile--like health care.
And why not? Charity is the answer for everything conservatives don't want to spend money on. Let them show us how it is done on something we don't want them to spend money on.
