(We're flattered! Also notable, Rep. Everett showed up somewhere. – Promoted by Colorado Pols)
During an obscure appearance Jan. 16 on KLZ 560-AM's nooner show, Freedom 560, State Rep. Justin Everett and host Ken Clark lit into the progressive blog, ColoradoPols, for its recent blog post listing fictitious names for Republican-sponsored bills in the state legislature.
Everett and Clark spent a good chunk of the show bashing the most-excellent Pols post, which, for example, offered names like “The ‘Right to Discriminate’ Act,” SB 15-069 (Sen. Laura Woods) and “The ‘Felons in Child Care’ Act,” SB 15-070 (Sen. Kevin Lundberg).
They read the make-believe names of the bills. They laughed. They got mad at "the left." They patted themselves on the back.
Everett addressed Pols directly on air: "[Pols is] very good at spinning things to make them into something they are completely not. All these things, especially the guns bills here on ColoradoPols, it should be 'Restoring Freedom Act.' That would be a better definition. 'Restoring Personal Liberties.' But apparently you guys are pretty far off the reservation, but we've known that, and that's why you're not relevant.
So, they choose to dedicate a segment of the show to Pols, and they say the blog isn't relevant? How does that work?
Maybe they lump themselves in the non-relevant category, too, allowing them, as irrelevant entities, to focus on another irrelevant entity without worrying about their own relevancy?
I doubt it. Those two are awfully head strong to see themselves as lacking relevancy. So maybe they secretly think Pols is relevant? I called and emailed Everett to find out, but he didn't get back to me, leaving me feeling no more or less relevant than usual.

Jason, Pols is more relevant in India, where it is higher ranked by Alexa, than in the US. Perhaps, the Representative should have made that clear.
You must be very fond of irrelevance?
Having outed himself as a professional liar, our good friend PissAnt has passed wholly and completely into irrelevance….not that anyone ever actually cared what he thinks. The point about India and Alexa is a pathetic attempt to create relevance where none exists.
you mean he is getting that $.50 per post from Coloradans for Americans for the Prosperity of Billionaires? Dayyummmmmmmm.
Shouldn't you be over at CO Peaked Politics clicking page 'likes'?
God, Alexa is known for throwing up crap statistics. See some other folks wondering why Indians love their site so much here. Alexa counts folks who have their toolbar installed, so the samples can be horribly skewed.
Pols might lay this Peak Politics nonsense to rest by posting a screenshot of their Google Analytics "by country" data (since I see the pages are are instrumented). Then again, maybe not.
As we've commented before, Alexa doesn't have any idea about our traffic because they don't have access to Colorado Pols. Take a minute or two to read about Alexa and you'll see that they have no ability to track websites accurately without the consent of the site.
We've been using the same 2 outlets to track our statistics for about 8 years now, so we can be confident in our traffic figures. In 2014, 97.08% of Colorado Pols traffic came from within the United States.
The Reign of The Cheeto-Stained Bloggers will never end!
Given Justin Everrett’s attendance history last session, he is the walking epitome of irrelevance.
It looks like I have to count Rep. Dan Thurlow as a client. Hes actually renting from the owner I normally service.
Of course, this website is irrelevant.
90% of all voters are not paying attention to anything political and that will remain true right up to the election.
I remember AM radio. I used to love listening in high school to that oldies station while I cruised around in my Ford Maverick. Good memories. Thanks.
You know what's irrelevant? Antonio Banderas' haircut from 1994, Rep. Everett. Of course may be he just has bed head from falling asleep in committee all the time.
Rep. Everett, you're just encouraging them.
