I have often disagreed with Sen. Salazar on his approach to issues but agree with the assessment of him as calm, cool, and respectful.
I would still like to urge him, especially as our new Sec. of the Interior, to provide greater transparency in government decision-making and I hope he can make quick progress on resolving the issues in the BIA and Indian Trust Fund. That has gone on too long!
The senator from Mexico is headed for deserved obscurity.
Probably a lot longer than yours.
In the West, a home state Secretary of the Interior is hardly “obscure.”
And the obnoxious racial comment aside, Ken Salazar has contributed far more to this country and the state of Colorado than you ever will.
Asshole.
above is one of your bigots.
This was a comment on the Senator from Mexico’s strong defense of illegal immigrants.
Nothing racist about that.
…amnesty from what? for what? the high crime of being born elsewhere?
I believe that dealing with even illegal immigrants has to involve a much more thoughtful approach that putting them on a bus and returning them whence they came. That does not make me from Mexico, China, Russia or anywhere else. Many, many Americans want to find a better way and I have found them to be reasonable people.
lost….but I don’t think he’s headed for obscurity. Obama has pledged to work with him and he has a relatively moderate reputation. I see some pretty good things in McCain’s future.
Not sure how this figures into Colorado having two senators (I’ll admit, I often have a hard time following your “logic”), but really, AS, I think you’re being a bit hard on McCain, the author and chief sponsor of the amnesty bill…a bill that was modeled on the amnesty program first initiated by Ronald Reagan more than 20 years ago.
Yes, but that was when we had a powerful external enemy we could face down with a nuclear arsenal. We didn’t need to scare the children with roofing crews and housekeepers, we could just point to the Russians. Things have changed, but John McCain didn’t get the memo.
Now we get stuck with whitey Bennet. Old Grand Wizard Ritter didn’t even consider Groff or Carroll. Typical.
Oh, I’m sorry “massta.” I didn’ realize black men with college educations weren’t allowed to hold opinions on this site.
I’ll just run out to the field and pick you some cotton. How about that? No place for a black man in politics.
You’re stereotyping. How do you know what color RedGreen is? I’d assume red and/or green, making RedGreen a dramatic minority. Have some respect.
but stupid, definitely.
But liberals won’t call you on it.
This clown is invalidating himself without the need to be called on it.
Try, try again, AS. You just might find a legitimate complaint against the liberals yet!
all the liberals calling him on it, right above your comment.
just extremely reasonable people, so fair that we defy all labels.
n/t
I hope.
Come on, AS, pretty low class calling Salazar a “Mexican”. You’re usually above that stuff.
Sankore, you’re not, unfortunately. Get bent.
just yanking our chains in the other direction.
Earlier in the week he/she/it was pretending to be a racist doctor from Texas.
No point in arguing.
I’m still bitter that you’re leaving the Senate. But I wish you well in your new endeavor. Don’t forget to write!
Go back to the Senate? The private sector? The farm? Maybe a run for governor? Anyone have any thoughts on what his best long-term plan is?
no doubt. Once Ritter is finished with his second term, Ken will make a run for Governor.
