#1 heh heh - play their game better than they can. Then demolish them. After all, he can claim in the next round of elections, that they "approved" his operation, right?

#2 But alas, can this freedom from regulation possibly last?

For a long time. A number of similar cases have indeed been a federal matter. Usually what happens is that the club is immune to new regulations aimed at and designed for a specific legal business. It's grandfathered, but the door gets shut for other competitors. Oh, and the city and tax payers get to foot all the costs of the demonstration of their hetrophobic* behaviors when their appeal cases fold. [*Cause you know that the broadminded and tolerant community of Boulder would never seek to shut down a gay club.]

#5 I remember a time when Carmel California govn't was full of itself in much the same way that Boulder is. You couldn't eat ice cream cause they didn't like the way it made the sidewalks sticky. Then they did something to Clint Eastwood, denied him a liquor license or something like that, and so he ran for mayor. Of course he won.

When the government gives itself too much power and begins to annoy the people, eventually they people give them the boot. It's like singers who want to stand on stage and preach politics. They soon discover who is master and who is servant. The fact that they forget that doesn't make it any less true.

Same for politicians.

#8 who wants to pass pole dancers on the way to buy 500-thread count baby sheets at the boutique down the street?

Gays, that's who. Moron.
