    1. Trump stinks.  The traitor formerly known as Bradley Manning is back in prison under the sobriquet of Chelsea,  Hickenhooper is tied with Sen. Gillibrand in a new Iowa poll .– at 0 percent.

      Things seem to be getting back to normal.

          1. Firstly, no it wasn't. She went by Chelsea even when she revealed US war crimes. Secondly, it's actually really fucked up to call trans people by their deadnames when referring to them in the past. I mean, not as fucked up as US soldiers mowing down civilians, including journalists, but still fucked up.

            1. You are wrong.  The traitor enlisted in the Army as Bradley.  He committed treason as Bradley.  He was indicted and convicted as Bradley.  The traitor only adopted the name Chelsea after being sent to prison.  He lived as an openly gay man for about four or five years before opting for a female name and identity.  So the traitor formerly known as Bradley Manning is a precisely correct term.

              I will concede that the person now picking up the soap with that shit-eating grin is named Chelsea.

                  1. Thanks, Curmie.You beat me to it. DeadBird, take Mark Twain's advice, "Never wrestle with a pig. You both get filthy and the pig? He likes it."

              1.  I will concede that the person now picking up the soap with that shit-eating grin is named Chelsea.

                 

                ColoradoPols is not your personal erotica site.

                    1. You're the first one to bring up genitalia.  Think about that a lot, do you, pervy boy?

                      Or are you just thinking back to your glory days as an altar boy?

                    2. You can't think I take any of your insults seriously.  For Christ's sake, have you even read what you "write"? 

                      Are you trying to insult me by implying I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse by the Catholic Church?  That's humor to you? 

                      Or do you think being a sexual abuse survivor makes someone weak, or that they asked for it somehow? I was, if it gives you a giggle. Beaten and raped when I was ten. But I was never Catholic. Anything else you want to know, to give you a giggle?

                    3. You know, Curmy, you ought to stop the game of prowling around and making random insults.  You're no good at it and after a while, your tears foul the keyboard.  Your next dozen insults are free– I'm going to try to ignore your sad little life.

                    4. V, you, of all people, aren't really in a position to tell people not to go around making random insults.

                    5. I'm okay with my life, V…everyone can see your words.  I'm comfortable with mine.  Isn't it about time for you to insult MJ or DP now? Tell us all again how you're not the one dispensing insults.

                    6. You miss the point, dead bi rd.  I write good insults.  You and Curmy suck at it!

                    7. A great example of what I mean. That was uninspired and uncreative. There's no zest to your insults. They're a series of bland nothingness that serve to confuse more than insult.

                    8. Yes, making fun of people whose crime is being different than you is a sign of real wit. 

  1. Hey- Legislature insiders

    there was someone from the Capitol on the news this morning talking about a bill regarding red lights that never change that would allow motorcycles to cross against a red when the light will never change.

    What is that bill? Where is it in the process?

    Why do we only get big coverage when the uninformed appear to testify about things proposed bills don't do?
    I would be happy to make up some headline grabbing rumours about common sense red light laws. Who do I contact?

    1. The bill was introduced by Senator Rachel Zenzinger. You can find it on her list of bills. Interview with her was on 9News last night.

  2. Strange sighting in mid-morning this past Sunday: homeless guy with sign begging at the stoplight intersection of State Hwy. 141 and US 50, about 5 miles south of Grand Junction. I would have expected him to be on the Main St. pedestrian mall in downtown Junction, where there would be more people.

    1. That traffic light is a long one so it might be lucrative. On a Sunday morning nothing will have much traffic. The sign-flyers for some reason have better luck at traffic lights that with pedestrians. People on Main Street generally ignore them, and on a Sunday you could fire a cannon and not hit a soul.

       

       

      1. You could be right. I don't go through that light often enough to time it. When I pulled up at the light (on 141), I got the green left turn arrow in about 15 seconds.

  3. Waitaminute:

     

    Rich people's kids can just go to college wherever they want?!

     

    To whom is this news?

     

    Rich people don't get bumped from flights!

    Rich people don't have lead in their water!

    Rich people have access to whatever medical services they want!

    Rich people have better cars and houses.

    Rich people…. are rich 

    1. Well, fuxsakes, they gotta’ use that tax cut money for something . . . 

      . . . it takes longer than you imagine to build a pair of really decent matching his & hers luxury yachts.

      You really want ‘em to just keep pissing all of it away on happy endings at Asian massage parlors? What’s that gonna’ do to improve our trade defecits?
