( – promoted by Colorado Pols) If you’ve been soaking up the sound waves from talk radio the past month, you know that Rep. Cory Gardner has been talking a lot about the horribleness of President Obama and the greatness of Romney vice presidential selection Paul Ryan. For example, here’s Gardner on KFKA’s AM Colorado […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado has a lot of experience with politicians endorsing personhood, then trying to slide away from it when the eyes of everyday people turn toward them. It’s time for reporters to draw on this experience in questioning Rep. Paul Ryan, when the opportunity presents itself. Will Ryan, who supported […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Obviously, the key news from today’s personhood press conference was that personhood supporters turned in 112,121 signatures to Colorado’s Secretary of State, hoping to get their measure on the November ballot. But the political ramifications of the personhood amendment should continue to be a key part of the coverage. […]
FOX 31’s Eli Stokols reports that a certain law-and-order Colorado Republican representative, in the thick of a cutthroat primary, has got a problem on the home front. A big problem. State Rep. Randy Baumgardner, who is challenging Sen. Jean White in a Republican primary for her senate seat, is benefiting from mailers questioning White’s values […]
The story continues about Rep. Mike Coffman’s apology for saying Obama isn’t an American “in his heart.” And when an apology drags on, questions rise up, like did he really want to apologize? Did he mean it? Who’s pressuring him? What’s wrong with him? Etc. You recall that after 9News aired “Coffman’s Birther Moment,” Coffman […]
We understand that saying “government is bad” is a popular position for a right-wing Republican to take on any issue, but it’s a bit absurd to see Rep. Cory Gardner go so far as to blame the government for lightning and forest fires. From The Ft. Collins Coloradoan: U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner, R-Colo., is calling […]
Conservative talk radio hosts don’t have too many kind words for Metropolitan State College these days, after Metro’s decision last week to offer a reduced tuition rate to undocumented students. Everyone knows this issue potentially alienates Hispanic voters in a swing state where Hispanics could decide the election. Still, the conservatives on the radio, many […]
Fascinating stuff from FOX 31’s Eli Stokols late yesterday: Republican Congressman Cory Gardner, elected in 2010 and widely viewed as a rising star within the GOP, has drawn the ire of Mitt Romney’s campaign over his reluctance to formally endorse the party’s likely presidential nominee. FOX 31 Denver has obtained an email between two top […]
CBS4 Denver follows up on their national parent’s weekend exposé: One day after CBS News aired a report about Colorado Rep. Cory Gardner co-hosting a high-priced fundraiser, Gardner gave the Republican response to the president’s weekly address. The CBS News report showed Gardner at an upscale Florida resort where lobbyists and donors were charged $10,000 […]
SUNDAY POLS UPDATE: here’s Rep. Cory Gardner’s full Weekly Republican Address: —– Cory Gardner is doing the bidding of his constituents. No, not the taxpayers and consumers that populate his district–his real constituents: Big Oil. From The Hill: “People in my district and around the country are fed up with the way the president is […]
Full video after the jump UPDATE: The Colorado Independent has reaction from Rep. Cory Gardner's Democratic opponent, Senate President Brandon Shaffer, who needs more exposés like this one: "This is just latest example of what's wrong with Washington and Congressman Cory Gardner," state Senate President Brandon Shaffer, who is running to unseat Gardner this year, […]
NOCO5’s Tom Livingston reports: In response to President Obama potentially tapping into the Strategic Petroleum Reserves to try and reduce the price of gasoline in the U.S., Congressman Corey Gardner has proposed a bill that would require an increase in the oil and gas production under oil and gas leases on Federal lands. “If we […]
According to Allison Sherry at the Denver newspaper, Rep. Cory Gardner’s Chief of Staff, Chris Hansen, is taking a leave of absence from the office in order to run Rep. Mike Coffman’s re-election campaign in CD-6. Hansen managed Gardner’s 2010 campaign, and his move to oversee the Coffman campaign says a lot about both CD-4 […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) One reason we like to have reporters on the job is so they can join those boring conference calls with politicians who don’t say much. Unless they are asked right questions. The Denver Post’s Allison Sherry dialed into a call with Rep. Cory Gardner Dec. 14, and asked a […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) The Colorado Statesman went where no other media outlet dared go last week and asked Colorado’s congressional delegation whether they support the personhood initiative, born again last week at a Denver press conference. One could argue that the 2012 personhood initiative isn’t actually “born,” or alive in any way, […]
(We shouldn’t be picking winners and losers* – promoted by Colorado Pols) I posted in late September about the bankruptcy of solar-electric array manufacturer Solyndra, and subsequent feeding frenzy by Republicans desperate to pin President Barack Obama in his first scandal. Even though the Solyndra loan application was initiated during the Bush administration, and the […]
From the press release freshman Rep. Cory Gardner sent out last week: During an Energy and Power Subcommittee hearing on the “Farm Dust Regulation Prevention Act of 2011” (H.R. 1633), Rep. Cory Gardner (R-CO) stressed the importance of protecting agriculture from unrestrained dust regulations that are harmful to jobs in rural Colorado. “While the EPA […]
(Delegitimizing the press makes everything else easy – promoted by Colorado Pols) When a public figure attacks journalism, reporters should see it as an opportunity to help people understand what reporters do and why they should continue to exist. I mean, if journalists don’t defend themselves, who will? Academics? Maybe, but who cares? And if only the […]
A very interesting and lengthy write-up this weekend in New York Magazine profiling the controversial GOP House Majority Leader Eric Cantor–a must read for anyone looking to gain insight into the workings of the new House majority. With some interesting color commentary from Colorado’s own freshman Rep. Cory Gardner, talking about his relationship with Cantor […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Republicans in Congress and elsewhere have been making hay over the recent bankruptcy of California-based solar electric panel manufacturer Solyndra, including Colorado’s freshman Rep. Cory Gardner who serves on the House Energy and Commerce Committee: http://gardner.house.gov/press… “The Solyndra story is one of greed, mismanagement, and incompetence. Emails and documents […]
In Rep. Cory Gardner’s regular periodic email to constituents last week, we took note of something that might help people understand the enormous divide between the respective “job creation” proposals from President Barack Obama vs. Republicans in Congress. According to a news report in The Washington Post last week, President Obama intends to press Congress […]
(Gardner’s adventures in AM radio continue – promoted by Colorado Pols) “The Amy Oliver Show made national news,” Amy Oliver told her KFKA listeners Aug. 11, reading the headline from The Hill, a Washington-DC blog, “GOP lawmaker OK with dismantling DOT.” “That’s not exactly what he said,” Oliver explained to her radio audience, apparently forgetting […]
(Do not backpedal, severe tire damage – promoted by Colorado Pols) The Hill picked up the ball after KFKA radio host Amy Oliver dropped it, and asked Rep. Cory Gardner (R-CO) about his statement on Oliver’s radio show Friday that there are “great ideas” floating around to “basically turn the Department of Transportation back to […]
A fascinating tidbit from Monday’s town hall meeting with freshman Rep. Cory Gardner–transcript via Media Matters’ Political Correction this morning: CONSTITUENT: But what about my job? I want to keep it. Not new jobs. I want to keep my job. GARDNER: Well, make sure that your business is successful. [Pols emphasis] We need to make […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Egged on by radio-host Amy Oliver, Rep. Cory Gardner (R-CO) revealed Friday that he favors plans that “would basically turn the Department of Transportation back to the states.” Oliver, who hosts the “Amy Oliver Show” on KFKA 1310-AM in Greeley, told Gardner that Colorado should keep most of its […]
