At the time I did wonder if this was a set up to help bring free advertising to a Utah based product. It did bring fast national attention to a cheap vodka.
Was this a mistake?

I think he did the right thing. Bad idea. When it came out, and litigation threatened, he buckled… saving the STATE having to defend against the litigation.

I think BG needs to take a trip to the Urban Dictionary to decipher that abbreviation from Dave.

I’m not a drinker, and don’t see much purpose in it, but I think they jumped the gun on the Five Wives thing. There are scads of people in Idaho who are practicing polygamists, not affiliated with the church. And wouldn’t the only people offended be the ones practicing “The Principle?” Why would it bother routine Mormons? After all, they do have in their doctrine polygamy after death.

Filling in until they can find another political appointee? When actual qualifications don’t matter, it should be easy to find a good ole boy.

Well, why not? If we’re all drunk we might not notice all the rest of the corruption! Actually, its a win for the people who don’t want, don’t need, and didn’t vote for, big brother. Thank you BG for following the story and keeping us posted. By the way, did you know that Jeff Anderson is actually the HMFWIC of the LOTTERY commission and is filling as booze boss?
