Vince Chowdry has finally resigned from the Jefferson County School Board. If that name is familiar to you, he’s the … person convicted of 3rd degree assault on his daughter. The Jeffco Board of Education asked Vince Chowdhury to resign by July 25th. It only took him a month to realize what was going on […]

How long do you figure we’ll have to wait to see this movie on video?
IMDB lists release dates for Eastern European countries and Russia only. Meh.

Dennis Prager lists his beliefs.
The following is a list of beliefs that I hold. Nearly every one of them was a liberal position until the late 1960s. Not one of them is now.
…
Finally, I believe that there are millions of Americans who share most of these beliefs who still call themselves “liberal” or “progressive” and […]

Offshore drilling is a hugely important factor in the US becoming energy independent - a fact disputed by few sane people. So naturally, every politician who honestly cares about the US shedding the burden of foreign oil, right? Not so with one Colorado Congressman. Mark Udall has consistently voted against offshore drilling:
(H.R. 2311, RC Vote […]
Mr. Bob has an excellent 2-part series on the challenges his family faced in public school. After realizing the first of their 4 children were not being taught in the Jefferson County Public Schools, they made a change.
The shock we had that day is why three of our other children attended private, or home or […]

Having trouble keeping up with all the ballot measures this fall? Ballotpedia can help (link is for Colorado, but the site lists all states). Thanks to the Sam Adams Alliance for making it easy.
This is a big much to quote entirely, but I’ll do it anyway. Emailed from an uncle:
The Democrat Party has become the Lawyers’ Party. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are lawyers. Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama are lawyers. John Edwards, the other former Democrat candidate for president, is a […]
Sigh….work drama. The Symphony at the 4th of July. It’s been a crazy few weeks. Now as soon as I get fired from the day gig I can breathe normally. Luckily that’s not far off. In the meantime amuse yourself here. I did:
Patrick Ruffini has a new feature up at The Next Right (should be a daily read for you). This new feature, Earmark Alert, keeps up with “the most outrageous earmark news from across the country.” Appropriately enough, he starts out with a “doozy.”
…the #3 Democrat in the House caught red handed earmarking to $6.2 million […]
Royal Navy veteran, woken by screams from his next door neighbor and her baby, and the sound of men shouting. It’s 2:30 in the morning.
He called police and strapped on the false leg he has worn since his leg was amputated in March 2004 while he was still serving with the Royal Navy.
Aware he was […]
The People’s Republic of Boulder, CO now has decided how big you may build your home.
After years of discussion and debate, the county commissioners unanimously passed new regulations Thursday meant to preserve the rural character of unincorporated Boulder County by limiting house sizes.
The new rules, which will go into effect Aug. 8, will force anyone […]
The real story, and original reporting….
In April, the Denver Post ran three front-page articles by reporter Michael Riley attacking former Congressman and current Senate candidate Bob Schaffer for a fact-finding trip Schaffer took to the Northern Marianas Islands (“CNMI”) in 1999.
The type of misleading information and partisan rhetoric used in those “news” stories demands response, […]
Hmm…what to talk about. Or blog about, as the case may be. Can’t think of anything. Is there any news happening I should be aware of?
I’m kidding, of course. I’m actually in Tampa this week with the city of Aurora for the All America City Award competition, singlehandedly providing the music for the city’s delegation. […]
So found one traveler departing London.
Go through security, get pulled to the side. I’m wearing a French Connection Transformers t-shirt. Bloke starts joking with me is that Megatron. Then he explains that since Megatron is holding a gun, I’m not allowed to fly. WTF? It’s a 40 foot tall cartoon robot with a gun as […]
