A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream. The scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back. The frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion says, "because if I sting you while you cross the stream, surely I shall drown ."
The frog is satisfied, and they set out. But in midstream, the scorpion stings the frog. The frog feels the onset of paralysis and starts to sink, but has just enough time to gasp "Why? Now you shall surely drown!"
The scorpion replies: "Because it is my nature."
Reporters are lazy.
There is a world of difference between a state legislature doing something in a bipartisan fashion and Washington, DC shoving it down our throats.
If you don't see the difference, you must be a liberal.
There's a world of difference between you and a sentient being capable of independent thought, modster. If you don't see the difference, you must be a base Republican.
LOL…
What next? You're going to tell us that when the wind currents hit our Kansas-Nebraska border that the airflow returns back to Denver? Thus, the federal government shouldn't have a say in interstate air pollution or air standards?
Who, in Denver, gives a crap about pollution in Kansas or Nebraska?
No one.
Doesn't a state with a unicameral legislature deserve some pollution?
Doesn't a state with Sam Brownback as governor deserve some pollution?
I say: Yes, to both.

We've had a lot of crap shoved down our throats by the state legislature. And General Coffman is just the one to help that other branch do it!
ObamaCare = bad
ObamaAir = bad
Obama[insert anything here] = bad
Is that too difficult to understand?
So this lady has a problem with government overreach when it is the EPA protecting citizens from being poisoned by coal fumes, but doesn't have a problem overreaching the Constitutionally-protected first amendment rights of citizens.
AG Coffman wants a "permanent ban" on protests outside the Denver courthouse, even though it has been a designated "free speech zone" since 2010. She wants to be a dictator, telling Denver how to balance public safety and protest.
Well, I suppose it is much harder to protest in downtown Denver when you can't breathe … ???
Since her election, she has pretty much face planted with everything she has tried. The
thirdfourth fifthumpteenth time is the charm? Nope.She will self destruct. Who is paying for this lawsuit? The JBC may rein her in, and her own "client", CDPHE is not going to cooperate.
You've got to hand it to her, though. You have to admire a person who managed to get through law school so handicapped by being pretty much dumb as a post. I guess she must be really good at memorizing stuff.
What I can't quite figure out is what she's trying to get. Why is she's going against the wishes of the legislature with this suit? Who is she shilling for? Did Mikey put her up to this? Did she once work for O&G and this is some sort of sop to her old bosses? Is she setting up her next gig after term limits take her out? Gail Norton went to work for O&G when she timed out. Someone 'splian it to me, I'm lost.
