Chris Buttars YouTube Dump





America Forever !! Yeah, those guys. They're back:





And so is Chris Buttars !! And unapologetic to boot:



In any case, here's that 9:30 a.m. MST press conference:



And a second version of the same 9:30 a.m. MST press conference:



Senator Buttars responds to today's events:
"I was disappointed to learn of the Utah State Senates censure on February 20, 2009. However, this action will not discourage me from defending marriage from an increasingly vocal and radical segment of the homosexual community.

In recent years, registering opposition to the homosexual agenda has become almost impossible. Political correctness has replaced open and energetic debate. Those who dare to disagree with the homosexual agenda are labeled "haters" and "bigots," and are censured by their peers.

The media contributes to the problem. Increasingly, individuals with conservative beliefs are targeted by a left leaning media that uses their position of public trust as a bully pulpit. This pattern of intimidation suppresses free speech.

For the record, I do not agree with the censure. I see it as an attempt to shy away from controversy. In particular, I disagree with my removal as Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, since my work there is entirely unrelated to my opposition to the homosexual agenda.

Still, I'm a grown man and I can take my knocks. When it comes right down to it, I would rather be censured for doing what I think is right, than be honored by my colleagues for bowing to the pressure of a special interest group that has been allowed to act with impunity.

Thanks to the many citizens who have written and called to express their support. Please know that I'll live through this to fight another day. In years to come, we'll all look back at this point in history and see it as a crossroads. I have no intention of resigning."
And the Mormon church weighs in:
“From the outset, the Church’s position has always been to engage in civil and respectful dialogue on this issue. Senator Buttars does not speak for the Church.”

Uh...Apollonian, I hope you're kidding because otherwise you are a huge prick.

Anyways, the most interesting part was when Rep. Jenkins defended Buttars saying that Buttars is being picked on. From the audiotapes...it sounds like Buttars is the one picking on people.
