Rocky Anderson the Ungrateful
It was recently announced that the President of the United States is visiting Utah. Salt Lake City Mayor/Court Jester has vowed once again to embarrass everyone with a large protest. Rocky the protestor created a stir the last time GW visited. I think that it is unprofessional and uncouth to protest the President while holding public office but that’s just me. Rocky thinks it’s ok to spend over 35 days of the last 60 days traveling the world at taxpayers’ expense to further his eco-Nazi campaign. Read Too much flitting about by Anderson? Council members point to 73 days gone in a year Rocky’s travel has gotten worse not better since this article.
In today’s Deseret News there was a funny letter to the editor.
Mayor has time for protest?
Somehow, Mayor Rocky Anderson has been able to find a break in his travel schedule to organize another protest.
Do us a favor, Rocky. Go back to your "busy travel schedule."

In a perfect world I would love to see the President snub or even embarrass Rocky Anderson but I know that it won’t happen because despite his short-comings President Bush won’t do a thing to a tiny two-bit politician who is the mayor of Salt Lake City. I guess Rocky is above professional courtesy just like he is above representing the voters of Salt Lake. If nothing else Rocky Anderson should give respect to the Office of the President but its obvious he won't. Shame on you Anderson.

Rocky Anderson is a visionary in some respects a al Trax and public transportation. However, he's a horrible Mayor when it comes to the little things. On top of this, he sees himself as some sort of little emperor instead of a public servant. He believes being a public servant is pretty much wielding his sword of opinion and attacking anything he disagrees with openly. He's hardly a diplomat or problem-solver.
More than all of this I'm very disappointed that his opponents have never openly called him on his direct membership, and involvement, in openly pro-Marxist organizations. All throughout college and much of his ACLU career he was an active member of pro-Marxist groups. I think this ideology is apparent when you see his viewpoints on religion and small government. He believes it's his job to ram his agenda down the public's throat and then claims victim whenever people oppose his views.
If you've ever had the opportunity to spend any amount of time with him personally you will discover three things about Rocky: 1) he's sincerely passionate about what he believes in, 2) he's a huge meglomaniac that loves loves LOVES being king of the hill and seeing his name in bright lights and 3) he's as quirky as any person can get and extremely obsessive compulsive.
