“It’s clear that we don’t have enough people that genuinely understand who we’re up against. We’re in a war with leftists.”

    Each side locked down their votes. This is a base election with indies being icing on the cake …. unless Obama again fails to show up at the next debate that is.

    OFA and Obama Super PACs need to step up the collections and spending …. more attention needs to be diverted away from jobs, economy, etc…. and to stawman social issues that don’t put food on the table like abortion….can we count on you leftists to step up?

    Here’s something you’re not likely to see much this campaign season: a campaign ad “truth-test” that declares the harshest accusations flat out “TRUE.”

    But that’s what happened when 9News took a closer look at the damning Coors campaign ad slamming Congressman Ed Perlmutter’s record of supporting rapists’ rights.

    The fact that the truth test came on right after the ad itself aired makes it even more damning for Perlmutter.

    “The assistance of inflation is invoked whenever a government is unwilling to increase taxation or unable to raise a loan; that is the truth of the matter.”

    “It would be a serious blunder to neglect the fact that inflation also generates forces which tend toward capital consumption. One of its consequences is that it falsifies economic calculation and accounting. It produces the phenomenon of illusory or apparent profits.”

    We’ve got the daily contestants for DFGOTB talking to themselves.  

    Now that shows you what a great job Biden did.

    Can we please get some blog love for Michelle Obama?

    I’ll write it if nobody else does, but…PCG? I assume the Guvs are waiting for you. :)

      or else you would make a case using your own words. (Which you never have and never will.)

        I say exactly what I want and explain it as succinctly as possible.

        It is not my fault you have been brain washed and do not comprehend even the simplest economic issues.

        Inflation is not prices.Inflation is expanding monetary base in excess of demand.  Inflation is much higher than reported because CPI Is not inflation, matter of fact CPI is not anything but rubbish because you cannot gather any meaningful knowledge from averaging disparate consumer goods.

        IF CPI is so awesome, then why does every liberal attempt to subvert CPI by bypassing Tabor, as Tabor is CPI?

        Expanding monetary base and then giving this new money to your friends is the oldest trick in the book and the very action of Plutocracy.  Trickle down poverty. The money in your pocket is melting, unless of course you at the front of Ben Bernanke’s friend list.

        A successful prosperous economy does not require a perpetually escalating money base, which serves only to bestow wealth upon a few at the expense of all others.  

        Most people, including those here at Cdolls and unfortunately quite a few at Colorado I.I., have no clue and merely serve to maintain status quo. The Republican Party is the other head of a 2 headed leviathan.

        If you cannot comprehend what I am saying, your teachers failed you miserably. You have been neutered by design. You are now 1 of them. Who is them? The criminals.

        Ad hominem, 2 step, straw-man, et all,in 3,2,1…

          it’s because your English teachers failed to let you out of their classrooms with a basic understanding of composition, and because you probably never took any logic courses.

          I like that you began with an ad hominem and then finish with a prediction of one, like a street punk who sucker punches someone and then doesn’t understand why his victim fights back.

          perfectly appropriate when responding to a stupid punk.

            whatever.

            You did not respond to the real issue, which is perpetually increasing monetary base.

            Although you may think you are beating  me in your imaginary game of verbal Judo, the rest of the world can see exactly how pathetic Colorado Dolsters are.

            Ben Bernanke and his criminal friends print money for themselves at the expense of the producer.

            Inflation is 10% + annual and current unemployment is 15% +. The modern family cannot work enough hours to free themselves from your institutionalized tyranny and quest for total State dominion of the individual.

            Nothing but Federal Reserve puppets, all of you.

      Why don’t they just do what I want them too?

      Because the founders know oligarch y is a failed model.

    who is COMPLETELY out of touch with reality.

    There really isn’t much to add; the story speaks for itself.

    Mitt Romney riled critics today with his comments on health insurance. “We don’t have people who die because they don’t have health insurance,” Romney told The Columbus Dispatch during a Wednesday meeting. “We don’t have a setting across this country where if you don’t have health insurance, we just say to you, ‘Tough luck.’ … No, you go to the hospital, you get treated, you get care, and it’s paid for, either by charity, the government, or the hospital. We don’t have people that become ill, who die in their apartment because they don’t have insurance.” Some of the aforementioned critics pointed to a 2009 Harvard Medical School study that found nearly 45,000 American deaths a year could be linked to a lack of access to health care.

    I am becoming more and more convinced that Mitt “the whirligig” Rmoney is an alien from outer space…or a robot…or SOME kind of creature that survives with no heart. Reminds me of Dick Cheney…without the snarl.

    Body found in Arvada is conclusively positively identified as Jessica Ridgeway.

    Per Rachel Maddow show, a gunshot was fired at the Obama Denver HQ on 9th and Acoma.  Broken glass, people inside, no injuries.
