Would Hickenlooper be conflicted out?
I think it is a great idea and my 18 year old daughter concurs.
Where’s the post I promoted this morning? It still has my promotion tag but isn’t on the FP.
It’s possible the post was edited after you promoted it, which with newer accounts does seem to remove the post from the homepage. Please repromote the post.
They blame sub-par teachers for education woes yet propose making teaching less rewarding in terms of salary and benefits while also being keen on adding new responsibilities such as becoming weapons trained security personnel.
This makes as much sense as their militant devotion to zygotes coupled with their “tough luck” attitude toward children who have actually been born but who have exercised poor judgement by choosing (?) to be born to parents struggling financially or to undocumented workers or just into one of the less desirable (by their standards) demographics.
Apparently they believe that the secret to attracting high quality professionals to teaching is to treat them with contempt and make it a job offering more onerous duties with fewer financial advantages and that responsibility for one’s choices, like personhood, should begin at conception.
What I can’t figure out is how a cookie cutter republican, a regular, working stiff, middle class, average joe type pinko hasn’t figured out exactly what you just posted.
How can 32% of the public be so damned willfully uninformed, when the very future of their own kids is put at hazzard by the very political hacks these dipshits support?
definitely not that our legislators are only allowed five bills . . .
Couple that with the fact that these idiot bills are required to have at least one committee hearing . . .
The problem is (as is clearly evidenced here) that every legislator is permitted (and consequently expected to have) five bills to begin with. Without this prime-mover stupidity, a lot of this subsequent legislative stupidity would be greatly curtailed, if not eliminated all together.
Want further proof? — list five good ideas that Greg Brophy has had in his entire life . . .
The only idea that Brophy did good on was to not ask me questions when I testified on bills before the committees he was on.
Other than that, you need to ask someone who cares about him if he ever had any other good ideas.
But he’s a bike riding tool, and has teamed up with some tree-hugging Dems to pass good pro-cyclist legislature.
He also looks better in Lycra than Chris Romer:
Here‘s her race report.
None should consider this a comment on Chris Romer’s environmental record.
Scott Gessler pushes new bill that would allow him to remove non-citizen voters from the rolls

The legislature and Governor are Dems. For gubernatorial in our state he has to tack toward center, not right. Has he pretty much concluded he’s just going for rightie celeb in the future, like Tancredo?
The Republicans are concerned with Democratic overreach this session and this is their legislative agenda?
These sort of dangerous proposals makes me thankful that I know they have no chance of ever getting past a committee in either chamber. I would very worried if the Democrats did not hold the majority.
And these people don’t understand how they ended up in the minority. Well, it’s a mystery.
Thankfully the citizens of Colorado have more sense.
Jared ‘Graft’ Wright is sponsoring a bill to ‘arm teachers’ and to allow businessowners to shoot unpleasant patrons.
Ray ‘API’ Scott is introducing legislation to give tax breaks to Big Oil and Gas for more drilling contrary to what the (formerly beloved) Free Market would otherwise bear.
Don’t you just love it?
