I can't tell you how many good candidates Utah Democrats have lost to the Hatch Act, but usually, once it is understood that there is a real problem, they bow out gracefully.
Here's what one D-News reader stated:
People need to stand up and tell the feds to take a hike and keep their "strings", and their money.
We are tired of being manipulated to do things the way bureaucrats in Washington want them done.
Just quit your excessive confiscation of money from taxpayers in Utah, and let us keep it here to tax and spend as we want, under conditions set by Utah.
That goes for schools, welfare, highways, and everything else, not just law enforcement.
Taxes were supposed to be for defense and federal judiciary, not imposing liberal social engineering schemes on free people.
Greiner is a good cop, and a good legislator. However, he is a Republican, and that is his real sin in the eyes of the feds.
Pretty silly comment, but I'm glad to know that Greiner the lawmaker isn't responsible for being Greiner the lawbreaker.
