Grass Roots and Voters: Ready, Aim, FIRED!
 In a historic recall election [Democrat] Colorado Senate President John Morse was booted from office, capping the end of a long and passionate fight over gun rights in Colorado. [Democrat] Colorado State Senator Angela Giron has also been recalled for her gun control votes. Giron and Morse are the first Senators in Colorado history to be recalled. Both Giron and Morse have officially conceded. Both areas formerly represented by Giron and Morse are deep blue (Obama carried them by nearly 20%).The Morse recall results are a swift kick in their proverbial nuts. A reminder to legislators that getting elected office doesn't give you a free pass to do whatever your progressive paymasters demand of you. And, as the Morse recall demonstrates, it's ultimately the voters who control a politician's fate, despite the attentions and intentions of the fat walleted few. For those of you unfamiliar, Colorado Senate went Dem by 1 vote last cycle. the Dems then went hard left and railroaded in bad gun control and other hard left agenda items -- mainly with Morse as President using his powers to stop opposing testimony, as well as using parliamentary tricks to severely restrict or eliminate any debate and (opposition) amendments. The "fat walleted" they are mainly talking about New York City Mayor Bloomberg, who poured millions into defending these two from recall via a bunch of front groups.. Posted by: OldSpook 2013-09-11 |
