(Nice job if you can get it – promoted by DavidThi808)
Wayne Allard is no longer accepting e-mail from us. I just checked
his senate site and sure enough it states:
The United States Senate has effectively recessed for the remainder of the year, and will not be considering new legislative proposals. I am retiring, and so my Senate career has also ended. Accordingly, I feel that your thoughts and views on this matter would be best addressed to my successor.
This was news to me, and I really couldn’t believe it. We are still paying him for a few more months.
Be kind, my first diary here, but thought this site really needed to know this and I hadn’t seen it earlier.

I guess he’s kinda right…there’s not a whole lot of “work” left to do. But the fact that he’s still getting paid until January 20th leads me to think he should still at least accept email. Even if no one is going to read them he could fake it…
but the Colorado Independent broke the story a couple days ago.
I hadn’t seen anything about it…but perhaps I just missed it.
…I don’t read that other website referenced above. Thanks!
just wanted to make sure credit where it’s due, it’s a good story and was a good catch.
on November 5th, the sooner for Colorado to have a senator who gives a shit.
Oh right, he never did that.
to the whole state re Forest Health issues and forging a consensus among the entire CO delegation to get more $ from USFS.
At least he could have pretended he was still an active senator.
And here I was hoping that he might actually do something while he was in office.
I believe he helped with the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve bill, and as Gray points out, he’s been reasonably useful on forest issues.
For the most part, though, “potted plant” wasn’t too far from the truth.
with your last paragraph. I just don’t want anyone to think he did nothing helpful. There is much to dislike about Allard’s enure.
Can we look forward to him suspending his salary effective immediately?
Since there’s nothing for him to do.
Pathetic.
Not only has Allard earned his “Dumbest Senator” label. He’s been working on “Laziest Legislator” all along. His ball-dropping failure at party-building and party-tending has helped extend the careers of others among the dimmest of Republican dim bulbs. And helped his party to fail to adapt, steepening its dive into irrelevance. Neither a show horse nor a workhorse, Allard aspires to be no more an old horse. Good riddance to a lazy and unimaginative blockhead.
We have the full report!
If your a proud american you must see this before you vote

A couple of things:
1. You’re=you are, it is not rocket science
2. McCain (note the big C that comes after the little c)
3. If Obama hates all white people, why does he work with them?
Thanks for the video, it was really well done.
Old propaganda is not breaking news.
But idiots like you could never understand such a thing.
