A fundraising email appeal from 2016 U.S. Senate candidate and Colorado Sen. Tim Neville yesterday pulls out all the proverbial stops, invoking the prospect of Syrian refugees coming to Colorado as an invitation to an attack on Mile High Stadium (see photo above)–now with an angry President Barack Obama Photoshopped in leading the ISIS terrorists on! Argumentum in terrorem is the order of the day:
Governor Hickenlooper refuses to back down from his plans to bring Barack Obama’s potentially dangerous Syrian “refugees” to Colorado.
An unsecured border and unvetted Syrian “refugees” threaten the safety and security of Colorado’s families…
I’m under fire for daring to stand up to Barack Obama and Governor Hickenlooper.
In fact, ProgressNow — one of the largest left-wing organizations in Colorado — called me the “most dangerous politician in America” because I represent the “no-compromise, take-no-prisoners wing of the Republican Party.”
But the real reason they’re attacking me is because I’ve taken on an entrenched Democrat in a purple district before — and won.
They know I’m the Republican with the best chance to DEFEAT Michael Bennet in November 2016.
They fear me the most.
That last part is a bit confusing, since we were under the impression it was the refugees–excuse us, “refugees”–we were supposed to be afraid of? However you may feel about this message qualitatively, and we know many readers will find it thoroughly contemptible, certainly it would be a mistake to underestimate it in the context of the Republican U.S. Senate primary Tim Neville is running in today.
By most estimates the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Paris has been very good for Republican presidential primary frontrunner Donald Trump’s campaign. Marco Rubio actually said Sunday before sort-of-but-not-really backpedaling Monday that the Paris attacks were a “positive development” if they placed Americans in an appropriately fearful psychological condition. Last year on the campaign trail, now-Sen. Cory Gardner freely exploited xenophobic fears and ignorance from ISIS to Ebola.
So yes, love it or hate it, Tim Neville knows exactly what he’s doing.

(Hey Moddy, better clear out a little more space under your rock to bunker a few more of your Neville patriot BFFs!)
I wonder if Neville would be more afraid of future generations that come after the Syrian "refugees" move here, or of all of the abortion providers out to kill the Syrian "refugees'" babies. Perhaps if it was made clear that the "refugees" were allowed to have guns to protect themselves from the abortion providers, he'd be able to win them over…
Does Neville support closing the national gun show loophole, the national internet gun sale loophole, the national terror gun loophole?
That's how you prevent terrorists from shooting people – whadda dope.
Trump is too much of a pussy for Tim Neville.
Do you really want to place yourself between Donald Trump and Timmy Neville in the battle over which of them is the more manly man?
Ummm . . . shouldn't that be, "which of them thinks he is the more manly man"? . . .
Not really that much of a battle, however . . . just sayin'. (I wouldn't want to see the monthly bills for the industrial-strength Viagra that these two overcomenpensators both undoubtedly require!)
