“Republican Secretary of State Gigi Dennis made controversial changes to Colorado campaign-finance rules after requests from lawyers who work for the state GOP, gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez and a powerful Republican political committee, records show…
Lawyer Scott Gessler, who does work for Beauprez and his campaign, and attorney John Zak hem, who counsels both the GOP’s Trailhead Group political committee and the state Republican Party, said they made the in-person requests to Dennis on behalf of themselves, not a client.
But Gessler acknowledged politics played a role.
“It was not my sole motivating factor to help Bob Beauprez, but was I conscious of it? Yes,” he said. “The rules are riddled with exceptions that help out Democratic constituencies.”

My favorite quote from that Denver Post story (http://www.denverpos…) is this:
“Everything with campaign finance is politically motivated,” (Gessler) said. “People destroy their enemies and help their friends.”
So there we have it.
Now go figure. Politics actually had something to do with it all!
I am confident that a Ritter administration will never stoop to such levels of political indignity! FORSOOTH! (Yeah, and “Both Ways Bob” is not political ad hominem either).
I refer you to these statements:

From Daily Kos
“Second, and this is the part that someone needs to explain to Joe “Call Me The King” Lieberman, we have a thing in America called democracy. We sure were proud of the ink stained fingers in Iraq, but I guess we aren’t so proud of it here. The people have spoken, Joe. They don’t want you. Take your ball and go home, you arrogant anti-democratic gas bag! (yeah, I said it, go ahead and quote me)
And finally, to the rest of the Democratic Party “leaders”: The American people desperately want leadership. Won’t you please give it to us! Forget the polls and go out and stand strong for what we believe in. The republicans do it and people vote for them even when they don’t agree.”
Glad to see you’re still posting, EZMak.
A story with (expletive) and pigs…..
http://www.denverpos…
“It’s another classic both- ways-Bob moment … to talk about renewable energy in light of his support of the NREL cuts. He has no credibility,” said Ritter spokesman Evan Dreyer.
Beauprez responded, “I’d say that’s (expletive), if I can be that blunt.”
“It’d be a lot simpler if Ritter and I just settled it like this,” he later said of the governor’s race. “One pig, two men.”
LOL. Good morning read.
one pig, two men, and an a very agitated Janet Rowland….
“Impromptu Bob”. Ya gotta love him.
what a complete idiot.
Or is reading the daily political news here better than reading the funnies lately?
I would like to congratulate the Mesa College Young Republicans, Trailhead and Beauprez’s lawyers, Gigi Dennis, Janet Rowland and others for making me laugh till it hurts. And oh does it hurt!
Just remember, it’s all fun and games until someone loses an election!
A must watch video:

The real reason Both Ways Bob had to have back surgery a few months ago — he changed positions too much!!!
Is it true they unsuccessfully attempted to transplant a human spine into him, but his body rejected the organ as being foreign?
I’m not sure I go for humor based on injuries…
it was because he was havin too many both-ways latte’s out in brokeback Delta County during his “coffee shop” tour.
