Given our Nationalist Christians do love their Leviticus:
For all the faux outrage over the
Catholic FridaysMeatOut day by the Guv (which by default supports new crop opportunities for our farmers), some eye-popping meat export numbers by the US beef industry. If every single Coloradan was a vegan we’d still sell every pound of our product;Who knew Adenauer was talking about Ganahl? Her road solutions are worse than the problems.
There are at least a dozen other Republicans who could have presented as a more serious, credible candidate than this moron:
1. Cory Gardner
2. John Suthers
3. Walker Stapleton
4. Taller Coffman
5. Shorter Coffman
6. Scott Tipton
7. Wayne Williams
8. Jane Norton
9. Kevin Priola (but he would have to switch back)
10. Don Coram
11. Bob Rankin
12. Hugh McKean (if only because he is unacceptable to RMGO and the Nevilles)
13. Lang Sias
14. The dog(s) of Taller & Shorter Coffman.

No limit in the stupidity of Denver City Council. So much for equity and inclusion. With the national publicity; get ready for another gold rush of addiction and mental illness.
Your kvetching rings hollow, as usual. You were silent on the GOP's $1.9T tax cuts for the rich. But tell us again your definition of stupidity
The program you refer to, the Denver Basic Income Project, is a well thought-out program. Their criteria for applicants includes that recipients of the income grants must be connected with a partner social service agency and be addressing their mental health and substance issues, if any. They’re also focusing on homeless women, who are often more vulnerable on the streets.
I came out of retirement to work as a teacher for people with substance issues. The wisdom of these folks is that treatment must come first, or alongside, housing. The community is safer, and unhoused people are safer, when housing is addressed. But it must be in the contextof treatment to be effective.
Not that you actually care about homeless people – you’re just looking to feel self-righteous and rag on Democrats- as usual.
https://commonsenseinstituteco.org/the-economic-footprint-of-homelessness-in-metro-denver/
According to the Common Sense Institute the Denver Metro area spends $481,200,000, almost half a billion on homeless. Has the problem increased or decreased? This new initiative should be titled the Drug Dealer Full Employment Act.
When will you demand results from these not for profit groups that enrich themselves on enabling the mentally ill and addicted?
Do you have to be an asshole to be a Republican?
Inquiring minds want to know.
You bitch about the homeless and you bitch about anything being done to address the issue. Let me guess the Republican plan on homeless is… cruelty.
So, Denver wants to spend some of its American Rescue Plan money helping people who need help. What a novel thought.
Tell me, P-fruit, were you as upset when Asshole DeSantis squandered some of his ARP money on his publicity stunt flying those refugees from Marxist Venezuela to Martha's Vineyard?
I don't know if you or Asshole DeSantis realizes it, but now those folks will have their immigration cases heard by a Boston-based immigration court which leans a hell of a lot further to the left than those immigration judges in Texas.
Be careful what you ask for ….
And how would you figure out whether a guaranteed income would be less expensive and more effective than the scatter-shot assistance of existing programs, Powerful Pear?
I suspect you don’t think the governments ought to be doing ANY of this, apparently believing that everyone can get a job and be self-sufficient, or depend on private charities. But that approach ISN’T being tested anymore, as our society saw how it worked in numerous situations of the 1800s and 1900s.
Something that I think could be very positive for Grand Junction – Creating a Technology & Innovation Hub in Grand Junction

Some impressive tech stuff happening in smaller rural communities. Don't rule them out!
Damn, I'm good:
Should we be worried?
Could A Republican Win Colorado’s Senate Seat? | FiveThirtyEight
The fact that Bennet had a close call in 2010 was not a surprise given that it was a wave election cycle. If Buck had made one or two fewer unforced errors (rape victim with buyer's remorse, campaigning in cowboy boots instead of heels, being gay is like alcoholism), he might have won.
But let's not forget that Bennet didn't exactly run away with it in 2016 even though the top of the ticket carried Colorado comfortably and he was running against an odd duck like the unicorn.
By the way, when was the last time Colorado voters re-elected a senator to a third term?
L.B., The only one I could find was Edwin C. Johnson, who served from1937-1955. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_senators_from_Colorado
He's the guy Lyndon Johnson solicitously referred to as "Mr. Wisdom" according to Robert Caro's Johnson bios.
Big. Ed Johnson also had three terms as gov., Two before and one after his Senate terms. Govs then served just two-year terms, so no one is likely to match that record
Answer: No.
A win is a win, L.B. However, I did send a check off to Bennet last week.
The only other candidate getting any money from me this cycle is Mark Kelly down in AZ.
