Thanks for my latest legal trouble

I don’t understand how a conditional promise I made well over a year ago obligates me now. As you know the good folks of Independence help honor the memory of my late daughter Parker by raising money for Children’s Hospital via the Courage Classic bike ride over the Rockies. They ride for Team Parker and […]

Stop school shootings now

Just two weeks ago I wrote a column for the Denver Post lamenting that 20 years after the Columbine High School shooting our children are still unprotected at government schools. I was out of the country when I heard news of the STEM shooting. I saw the headline and I instantly knew the story without […]
Coloradans are fighting back

Having grown up in this once liberty-loving state I am struggling with the speed at which our lawmakers are turning us into Venezuela. But I am encouraged by the organic battles that are springing up around Colorado to fight back. And Independence is helping. The passage of SB-181 is a direct attack on the oil […]
Couldn’t they at least fake a little respect?

I keep finding myself asking the same question – what happened to the good liberals? You know, the ones that would constantly say the ends don’t justify the means, a person is innocent until proven guilty, and the process matters. There are no such liberals in Colorado state government. Colorado is experiencing a violent lurch […]

Delegation power baby!

I understand the concept of delegation. I delegate all important decisions, meetings, and responsibilities to our Executive V.P. Amy Cooke so I can focus my limited office time on Glenlivet and Fortnite. The system works. But what I don’t quite understand is why Colorado’s leaders want to delegate so much decision making power to people […]
Colorado now California?

We have been warning that Colorado is being transformed into California for years. Tuesday’s elections will only speed the Californication of our once liberty-loving state. Colorado has for generations been a magnet for those who wish to write their own biography, to risk their wealth and talents, and to work in free association with others […]
Colorado or California, find out tomorrow

In one day we’ll know the future of Colorado politics: Four statewide offices, including governor, thirteen ballot issues, the state senate hanging by one vote, and one of the hottest US Congressional races in the country, the 6th. Will we take a step toward or away from becoming California? I’ll keep my predictions to myself […]
The big winner tonight is… TABOR!

As I’m watching the numbers roll in tonight from Colorado’s primary elections, I just had to tell you what the news might not pick up on, even if they noticed it. The big winner in tonight’s Republican Primary is our Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. You might recall last year several weak-kneed Republicans in the state […]
