You telling me Lamborn has been less effective than DeGette?
Seems like a pretty good argument against rigging the system every 10 years to protect incumbents.
You can't be serious. Whether you agree with Rep. DeGette or not she has certainly been more effective than Congressman Lamborn has been over any six to eith year period. By the way, how do you define "effective." That would clear-up what you mean.
Come on – he's been busy fighting fraud and abuse! (and wind turbines killing birds. The birds! The birds!)
Why demand the military account for $8.5 tillion (trillion -with a "t") that has never been accounted for when you can blame it all on working families who need access to a safety net? (with equal opportunity shout-outs to Gardener, Coffman and Tipton)
Did Bently ever square off head to head against Lamborn? I know at least one of them was three way, with Crank involved and if memory serves, the other was like a five-way melee. Lamborn wins multi candidate races by being the most far right, but could well lose to bently head to head.
To answer my own question, both Rayburn and Crank faced Lamborn in 06 and 08 (with a couple others in 06.) I always felt either Rayburn or Crank would beat Lamborn head to head but not if the pro-business, pro-military GOP is split two ways while Lamborn gets the Focus on the Family crowd all his own. With all the military cutbacks and the future of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site in doubt, there is a real possibility of cutting back on military programs. That has to worry the Colorado Springs business community — perhaps to the point where they want a Congressman that doesn't need to be watered twice a week
Oh Lord. Rayburn would be even MORE dysfunctional than Doug Lamborn. His far right bible-based Tea Party agenda is quite something to behold: http://www.rayburnforcolorado.com/
The last thing Colorado needs is more of this: [VIDEO] Tea Party Ted Cruz and Rand Paul at right-wing pastors conference plotting government shutdown (for "Jesus" no less): http://www.ronpaul.tv/rand-paul/ted-cruz-and-rand-paul-blessed-by-dominionist-pastors-video.php
Lamborn, Tea Party Caucus member, is no better: [VIDEO] via Virginia Christian Alliance targeted at "values voters" in 2011 under the heading "Virginia Call to Prayer Day has Been Declared April 6, 2011": [According to Lamborn and his tea partying cohorts, what the gvernment needs, is not legislation addressing our concerns, but MORE GOD]: http://vachristian.org/Current-Events/Virginia-Call-to-Prayer-Day-has-Been-Declared-April-6-2011.html
Have any of these people ever heard of the consitutional principle of church/state separation?
They have no idea what you are talking about. Separating church and state can't be done, in their delusional world that is. "Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz." and all that. And "normal" Americans are Christians as god intended. Just ask them. I need to sent General Halter another donation. Lamborn and Rayburn are seriously around the bend on the reality issue.
