In Colorado, a Republican?
I guess that's what compassionate conservative means.

2. Let me point out that he doesn't represent the whole city |
|
and that he's just one of 14 Reps. and Senators our county has in the State Leg. Furthermore, he wasn't elected but appointed by a vacancy committee composed of his own sycophants (carefully crafted after decades in city and county government).
He speaks for all to many people, but not everybody (especially not me, because I don't even live in his district). He stands a good chance of losing in a primary challenge this year.

7. I'm a resident of Colo Spgs |
|
and I can say that we do have a problem with racists and bigots, and they are almost all Repubs.
I am outraged at Bruce's comment, but really not all that surprised. I've tangled with him in person as well as through email. He is the same bigoted prick that he projects on camera.
What puzzles me is why the repubs sent him up there in the first place. I'm glad he is out of our hair on the local level though. He was a horrible County Commissioner.
Oh yeah, K&R
