At the latest Club 20 Club 19 confab, this past weekend in Shale City, environmentalist debated oil and gas attorney, according to Mike Saccone of the GJ Sentinel: To bolster her point, [Elise] Jones asked the nearly 200 debate onlookers to raise their hands if they would want drilling within 150 feet of their bedroom […]
Ok, not a whole lot going on since the battle of the dueling press releases between Will & Jared. And I post this with some trepidation as it almost certainly will lead to 10 comments from both LoI and StM – saying the exact same thing in each comment. But hey, it’s a slow news […]
(It looks like Iraq is moving into a phase of heavy fighting – and so it will now impact all of our federal elections big-time. – promoted by DavidThi808) Whether you think the Iraq war was the biggest foreign policy blunder since the war of 1812 or not, examining the operation in Basra has value […]
The plot thickens now that Jeff Crank has hired one of Colorado’s dirtiest politicians as his new campaign manager. Why do I consider Alan Philp as one of the dirtiest politicians in Colorado? Why do I consider Alan Philp a man with no moral compass? Just look at his documented track record. 1) Alan […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) For a candidate whose entire argument for winning the primary now relies upon the superdelegates overturning the popular and pledged delegates votes, this is not good news for Senator Clinton: At a time when Sen. Hillary Clinton is increasingly relying on superdelegates to vault her to the Democratic Party’s […]
By LT. SEAN WALSH The passing of the 4,000th service member in Iraq is a tragic milestone and a testament to the cost of this war, but for those of us who live and fight in Iraq, we measure that cost in smaller, but much more personal numbers. For me those numbers are 8, the […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Don’t ask me if I like it or not, or if I support it or not. I just got off the phone with Mike, and this may or may not be the best idea I ever heard. Press release from the Libertarians follows the bump. Former U.S. Senator Mike […]
Not that this is a surprise, but at least somebody thinks Rep. Doug Lamborn is doing a good job. From a press release: Today, the Club for Growth PAC endorsed Republican Congressman Doug Lamborn in Colorado’s Fifth Congressional District. Rep. Doug Lamborn has one of the best voting records in the House of Representatives, voting […]
( – promoted by Haners) Colorado can’t match other states’ incentives for filmmaking Rep. Doug Bruce, R-Colorado Springs, said putting so much money into promoting a single industry is unwise. By ANDREW WINEKE March 24, 2008 – Why can’t what happens in Colorado stay in Colorado? Last year’s Jennifer Garner film “Catch and Release” was […]
The DCCC has released it’s list of targeted races for the 2008 election and our own Marilyn Musgrave once again is on the list. The list has 59 Republican held seats plus 31 Democratic held ones that they want to keep. Needless to say, they can’t pour money into 90 races. So I would say […]
From Huffington Post Sean Hannity Confronted Over His Relationship With Neo-Nazi Hal Turner. The folks over at NewsHounds have been watching their Fox News Channel quarry dither over Senator Barack Obama’s associations with pastor Jeremiah Wright, and noted Fox’s own Sean Hannity getting himself tripped up in the guilt-by-association tango. Seems that one of Hannity’s […]
Yes Gecko – I know you find that title redundant 🙂 From the Washington Post I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” –Hillary […]
I’m kind of a political nerd, so I decided to calculate the cost per vote of each Democratic candidate’s campaign. Using the latest FEC reports on operating expenditures and dividing that by the latest number of votes, I came up with the following statistics for the 9 Democratic candidates who filed finance reports with the […]
I just got this e-mail from the Lois Court for HD-6 campaign. Apparently, Tom Russell, who withdrew this week from the campaign to replace Andrew Romanoff, has endorsed Lois. Full text of the endorsement after the bump. Earlier this week, I withdrew from the District 6 race. My plan was to get out of politics […]
Story behind the story: The Clinton myth By: Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen March 21, 2008 One big fact has largely been lost in the recent coverage of the Democratic presidential race: Hillary Rodham Clinton has virtually no chance of winning. Her own campaign acknowledges there is no way that she will finish ahead in […]
As the Fort Collins Coloradoan reports: In a recent fundraising letter to supporters, Rep. Marilyn Musgrave said she won’t get much financial aid from her Republican Party this election and needs fundraising help as she fights for re-election to a fourth term. Top Republican officials in Washington have told me to expect little or no […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) The industry front-group of dubious repute-Americans for American Energy-in it’s lone role of praising the BLM’s decision to plow ahead with drilling the Roan Plateau, is now making the outlandish claim that unless Governor Ritter also backs down on implementing new state oil and gas regulations, Colorado might have […]
Republican Senate candidate Bob Schaffer is still doing his best to avoid talking about anything. As Mike Saccone of The Grand Junction Sentinel writes in his “Political Notebook”: As nearly every major political figure in Colorado sounded off Thursday on the Bureau of Land Management’s decision to disregard Gov. Bill Ritter’s widely praised plan to […]
(x-posted variously) At the end of January our area hospital, Prowers Medical Center in Lamar, Colorado, officially announced they were in trouble. They ended up over a million dollars in the red for 2007, part of a downhill financial slide that has been going on for some time. Like most hospitals, PMC uses a management […]
This is a memo from Greg Craig, former director, Policy Planning Office, U.S. State Department I posted it in whole. I don’t usually do that, but I thought it worth posting it in its entirety. Please note this guy was in the state department under Clinton and headed up his defense during the lewinsky affair–so […]
Because the national convention is in town this year nearly everyone wants to be a delegate to state just so they can try to be a delegate to the national convention. No, really. The question was directly asked of our HD-8 convention. I raised my hand along with about twelve other people expressing that I […]
It seems the longer the presidential nominating contest goes on between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, the more idiotic the pontificating and candidate spinning – especially when it comes to the so-called “electability” argument. The Clinton campaign, as exemplified by surrogate Gov. Ed Rendell (D-PA) this morning on Meet the Press when he said: “She’s […]
They say what goes around comes around, but we didn’t think it would come around in quite this way. First, twenty-four years ago Ronald Reagan told us it’s Morning in America, http://www.thenation.com/doc/2… speaking in bland homilies to create a tidy, white image of the nation. Now a group of leading feminists gathers in Manhattan and […]
