According to a recent Denver Post feature, the Napoleonic director of the Office of Attorney Deregulation Council (pun intended), John Gleason, admits [what I’ve been saying for years] that “It’s time we eliminate the secrecy around our system.” (Click here). It’s no surprise that Alec Rothrock (who’s never been a fan of Gleason’s despotic, totalitarian […]
As the Grand Junction Sentinel reports: If Lakewood-based motorcyclist Michael Graves has his way, motorcyclists will be allowed to legally weave their ways through traffic jams and congested roadways. Ballot language Graves, 34, submitted Monday to the Colorado Legislative Council would make it legal for motorcyclists to drive between cars in slow-moving traffic. “It’s a […]
With the endorsement of labor groups soon to come for John Edwards, I thought it would be a good time to post up another interview – this time with Elizabeth Edwards as she came through Denver back in July. I have to tell you that this interview was not scheduled, I just happened to be […]

From the Rocky Mountain News: The commission given the task of reforming health care in Colorado is underfunded, lacked enough time and can’t solve the state’s health care crisis this year, its chairman said Wednesday. Many important matters are beyond the purview of the commission, said Bill Lindsay in comments during and after a panel […]
In the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination, John Edwards has staked much of his strategy on the premise that he is the “most electable” Democrat in a general election. But an interesting breakdown of polling by The Washington Post indicates that Democrats may not be buying that message… We start with the horse race […]
Well, early September is here, and as promised, my first new column for Creators Syndicate is now being published. As you will see, it is about a little-reported but HUGELY important issue happening in states and communities all over the country.

This morning I had a pleasant conversation with Joan Fitz-Gerald rounding out my chance to talk to all three candidates for the CO-2 Democratic nomination. The biggest thing that struck me throughout the conversation was that she gets it done. Issue after issue, topic after topic, it was how she had reached compromises on bills […]
With the recent implementation of the Mexican trucking company portion of Clinton’s NAFTA bill, we are seeing the race to the bottom for wages and good jobs in the United States. The only good jobs that NAFTA could not outsource were shipping jobs, and now that is being dismantled. With Union buster, Mark Penn working […]
Gee thanks, Osama Bin Laden. It’s so great to have your support in the fight against global warming: http://www.cnn.com/2… To quote Bin Laden: “The life of all mankind is in danger because of the global warming resulting to a large degree from the emissions of the factories (of) the major corporations.” “And despite this brazen […]

From a family friend in Iraq. As I await my final sunset over the Iraqi desert I’m left to ponder the events and my memories that have gotten me here and the ones that happened while I was over here. The first thing I notice are the emotions, good and bad, but I guess any […]
Best Friend Becky warned that moving to the northern part of Colorado Springs would mean hobnobbing with the Focus freaks and socializing with people whose only exposure to Judaism is Seinfeld. “At least in the southwestern part of town there are *five* of us,” she’d say. “That’s gotta count for something.” But I believed, and […]
Gotcha! Gotcha! Gotcha! Gotcha! How many times can you say “Gotcha!” before people stop paying attention? Apparently a lot, as Republicans in Colorado continue to play their “a-ha!” routine in regards to Gov. Bill Ritter and discussions over a collective bargaining plan for state employees. Ritter has never pretended that he wasn’t discussing legislation surrounding […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) The Denver Post’s resident “me first, everyone else be damned” conservative David Harsanyi does his best stenographer routine today, using his column to promote Aurora City Councilman Ryan Frasier’s (R) so-called “right to work” ballot initiative which proposes to force unions to collectively bargain for workers who refuse to […]
http://www.citizensf… Here’s the Denver Post’s report on this today: http://www.denverpos… This wasn’t the primary of 2006, when a lot of things Lamborn and his supporters such as Chuck Gosnell and the Christian Coalition of Colorado said and did and which were ignored, including the fraudulent alteration by the Christian Coalition of Colorado of a CSIndy […]
Recently I had the opportunity to interview the Western States Chairman for the Edwards Campaign, Andy Boian. We talked about what brought him to work with John Edwards back in 2004, Edward’s stand on lobbyist money, and Edward’s plan for universal healthcare. Some of the better quotes On lobbyist money Question – Senator Clinton, at […]
Last night, I officially turned in 70 percent of my next book. Its working title is The Uprising and it is scheduled to be released in the Spring of 2008. I won’t say much more about it now, other than to say it is very different from Hostile Takeover, and very different from the political […]
I know we in Colorado have our share of right-wing extremists, but check this out from just up the road in Montana. With Big Sky Country facing major wildfires, senior Montana Republican lawmaker John Sinrud – who heads the state House’s appropriations committee – used a legislative hearing this week to attack Gov. Brian Schweitzer’s […]

That would be the headline 850KOA radio host “Gunny” Bob Newman would expect me to write were his rantings actually true. Following in Bill O’Reilly‘s footsteps (background here and here and here),
Take a look at this recent poll of Denver voters done in advance of the November bond ballot: Denver Voters Poll Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper remains very popular, with an 82% approval rating. Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey doesn’t have as high of an approval rating because he is still unknown to many voters, but […]
That’s what Markos says: CO-Sen: CQ takes a look at this race. Democrats see the Colorado contest as perhaps their strongest opportunity to increase their party’s operational 51-49 majority.
