“The Democrats need poor dependent people if they’re going to stay in business, and if we don’t have enough poverty at home, we’ll import it. That’s what our open borders policy is all about.”
–Rush Limbaugh, yesterday

Maybe we should have a poll once a week on the most stupid, inane action by a Colorado politician. Of course if his track record is any indication, Gessler would win at least 7 out of 10.
This morning Pueblo Chieftain reports that he told County Clerk Ortiz not to mail the 70 military ballots yet to go out.
http://www.chieftain.com/news/…
Ortiz, God Bless him, is taking it to his attorney.
uh… well not Democracy apparently. At least not for them. This is despicable.
The SOS says that the military (stationed wherever in the world) can “apply” for a ballot. I’m sure that will work with only one month left until the Nov 1st election — apply for a ballot, ballot gets mailed, mail back ballot by election day. No problem. Of course, first you have to know that you’re not going to be automatically mailed a ballot. No problem — I’m sure all overseas military personnel are reading Colorado news daily, and keeping track of what Colorado’s SOS (each time I have to check to make sure I haven’t accidentally misspelled that . . .) is ordering. This is the same SOS who alleged (or should we say committed perjury in testifying to a Congressional committee) large numbers of illegal voters in the state, but couldn’t produce proof of one (or maybe did find one and only one).
Consumerist.com breaks story on Congress @work: Bill Introduced To Let Robots Call Your Cellphone
Right … just for informational purposes. Gawker.com tells it a little more sarcastically:
The bill gets an accompanying letter cosigned by all the shitbags wanting to unleash robocall hell — just for you:
– American Bankers Association
– ACA International (representing collections agencies)
– Consumer Bankers Association
– Coalition of Higher Education Assistance Organizations
– Education Finance Council
– Financial Services Roundtable
– Housing Policy Council
– Mortgage Bankers Association
– National Council of Higher Education Loan Program
– Student Loan Servicing Alliance
– Student Loan Servicing Alliance Private – Loan Committee
– The Clearing House (The Publishers’ ??)
– U.S. Chamber of Commerce
Yeah, he’s the guy speaking for a collective of Collections Agencies — the one with info serving “our best interests.” We have Federal & State Do Not Call lists for a reason but that only pertains to land lines. We’ve been protected from this cellphone robocall BS because call services would charge the consumer for incoming calls, but somehow they feel that is no longer a potential burden that is outweighed by the needs of these bullshit robocallers.
How about readers making a few call of their own? Call or right because Congress would sure like to know what your opinion:

Fun with TSA report: Second flight out of Denver in a row I’ve managed to avoid the body scanner and gropey-patdown, but security has added an incredibly creepy video while you’re waiting in line that addresses the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and reminds you not to stop being scared. Also, Janet Napolitano makes an appearance to remind you to be vigilant and report other passengers if you notice anything odd.
In Atlanta, there is a preponderance of police officers on Segways at the airport. They appear to be very serious about their Segwaying and have an elaborate code of hand signals.
Sounds like another planet.
…ehh who am I kidding, I’m not worldly at all 😛 I’ll watch my back.
And the substance isn’t the only problem, there’s also the process:
Here:
There must be some tax cuts in there somewhere.
Or something.
And pap smears? We all know that’s code for socialism. More sick poor people with more malnourished babies. It’s a GOP dream come true.
