The latest Romanoff – Bennet fan arguments threatened to take over another post.
That seemed pointless and …well, unnecesary.
So I moved the fight here.
Sure, I have thoughts on both comments, but I’m too busy today and tomorrow. Maybe I’l comment Wednesday.
Romanoff has lied for months
about himself
1. He’s claimed to be civil rights lawyer the truth he has no license
2. He hasn’t taken a dime in pac monry
truth-he cashed out his own personal pac, and says that he’ll take DSCC money if he wins the primary.
3. He said he’d vote against health care in Dec.
the truth–he told Littwin in March that he would vote yes.
4.He”worked” at the Southern Poverty Law Center
The truth he did a 3 month internship at age 21 fron 10.87 to 12.87
5. We still have no answer as to when he taught English in Nicaragua.
6.He claims to be progressive. The truth is he’s a DLC man of the year in 2009
7. He glorified Pat Caddell then said he had no idea that Caddell’s views on labor and environmentalists are extreme.A simple Google search indicated Caddell’s positions.
At best he doesn’t vet people.
8.He claims that he didn’t boast about how harsh the 2006 immigration bill was.The truth is he did.
9,He keeps crying about corruption when his own campaign has tarnished DPS.
10.Financial reform bill. He was so confusing that a reporter thought he would have voted against it. Then when he saw which way the wind blows he clarified his position the next day claiming the reporter misinterpreted his statements
About Bennet
1. He started his campaign stating Bennet didn’t support the public option
2. He claimed in a Colorado Springs debate that Bennet changed a vote for 2400.
The Statesman has disproved this twice.
3. Looting, obviously false.
4,He has suggested for months that Bennet bases all his votes on pac money. This is clearly false.
5. He has had his shills at DPS provide unaudited information to try to discredit his opponent. He casts dispersions on both Bennet, and Romer on this issue and as mentioned, he has basically single handedly destroyed the credibility of the DPS school board.
There is more if you wish.

Sorry Twitty, I know you didn’t want this but Ray has said way too much BS to let it slide.
1. No he didn’t
2. The PAC was dormant for 2 years and he gave the remaining funds to veterans organizations. Bastard.
3. He supports Single Payer and has been upfront about that since day one, like me, he thinks that the current “reform” is not good enough.
4.Clearly you’ve never done an internship. Go down to the Bennet HQ and tell all of those hardworking out of state interns that they aren’t really working, see how that goes.
5. After getting his Bachelors at Yale and before his Masters at Harvard. You trace it back.
6. Progressive Liberal Conservative Mentally Insane is all in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I think you are insane, your Mother may not think so.
7. I don’t think it’s lying to say you don’t know. Obama didn’t know that his appointees didn’t pay their taxes, a simple background check probably could have provided that information. But you know what, I forgive him.
8. I don’t care if he boasted about them or not, the fact of the matter is he did the best he knew how to do at the time. To gripe about it would have made the Repugs come after us harder. I have asked you and others repeatedly what else would you have done?
9. Complaining about corruption is not a lie. He has 2 supporters on the board, Bennet has the rest of the board, with the possible exception of Arturo, and one of them is his treasurer. How many DPS meetings have you been to Ray? Teresa Pena’s attitude is hurting those kids a lot more than a couple board members supporting Romanoff.
10. This sounds like a crock, what are you even talking about?
About Bennet
1. Bennet didn’t support the Public Option until Romanoff was a lock to run
2. Money changes the conversation, always.
3. I give you that one.
4. All? All seems like an outlandish statement, but it is Ray so maybe not. Money changes the conversation.
5. The NYT is a reputable newspaper, they did an investigation.
That’s it. And believe you me, the Denver School Board had it’s problems WAY before the Senate Primary.
