Colorado has lost a statesman and gained an opportunist. As congressman, Gardner has spent four years ignoring the constituents of his district, reliably showing up only for photo ops. Now he has an entire state to ignore.

(55,745 posts)From NYT:
Senator Mark Udall, Democrat of Colorado and another member of the Intelligence Committee, demanded Mr. Brennans resignation. The C.I.A. unconstitutionally spied on Congress by hacking into the Senate Intelligence Committee computers, he said in a written statement. This grave misconduct not only is illegal but it violates the U.S. Constitutions requirement of separation of powers.
