Get More Smarter on Tuesday (March 3)

Get More Smarter

Today is "303" day! Some of you may have to wait until July 20 to celebrate. It's time to Get More Smarter with Colorado Pols. If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here's a good example).


TOP OF MIND TODAY…

Colorado's Congressional delegation — minus Rep. Diana DeGette — was on hand today as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Congress. House Speaker John Boehner invited Netanyahu to speak to Congress so that Republicans would stop yelling at him for a few hours. 

► Like just about everything else these days in the Colorado legislature, partisan lines are forming over the Parental Leave BIll. Either that, or Republicans really don't want to go to that ballet recital.

► The Denver Nuggets have finally fired head coach Brian Shaw. The Nuggets were just 56-85 during Shaw's tenure, or what Congressional Republicans might call a "winning record."

Get even more smarter after the jump…

 

SHOULD YOU FIND YOURSELF STANDING NEAR A WATER COOLER…

► Republican legislators are making a third attempt at banning abortion this session. SPOLER ALERT: It's not going to work.

The Colorado Independent looks back at a November ABC News interview with Sen. Cory Gardner in which Gardner said this to George Snufalupagus:

"It’s important that Republicans show that we can govern maturely, that we can govern with competence.”

Um, yeahhhh…

► The Colorado Department of Transportation is holding a public meeting on toll roads for HWY 36…in Southeast Denver. Senator Matt Jones (D-Louisville) is not pleased with this.

► Everyone in Colorado may receive a one-time tax refund next year because of taxes collected from recreational marijuana sales.

► The Colorado Supreme Court will get together to talk transmountain diversions. BYOB!

► El Paso County may have said goodbye to the "Shirtless Sheriff," but Terry Maketa's legacy of lawsuits lives on. A new federal lawsuit calls Maketa "evil."

► Attorneys for James Holmes, the accused gunman in the Aurora Theater Shootings, plan to ask the court (again) to move their client's trial outside of Arapahoe County.

 

OTHER LINKS YOU SHOULD CLICK

Dr. Chaps brought a skeleton to the State Capitol on Monday.

► Lakewood City Councilwoman Ramey Johnson announced plans to run for Lakewood Mayor. Ramey just can't help herself — she's been a candidate for something in damn near every election since 2000.

► Congressional Republicans better hurry up and lead soon; looming demographic changes could keep them out of office for a long time.

 

ICYMI

► State Republican Party Chair Ryan Call may or may not have opposed recall elections in 2013.

Megan Verlee of Colorado Public Radio takes a look at vanishing funding for teen pregnancy prevention in Colorado.

Another day, another problem for FOX News pretend journalist Bill O'Reilly.

  1. I'd like to chime in on the firing of Shaw – thank FUCKING G-d!

    Now if the Kroenkes would sell all of their Denver franchises as they have very little interest in seeing them win championships…

     

     

  2. Journalists (if they still exist) would get a hell of a lot more respect if everyone would just stop referring to BOR as one, even a "pretend" one. 

    No one ever called Colbert a journalist, and his facts were always truthier.
