First off, I’d like to thank Ari for his thoughtful response to my original post – “Principles are Universal, not Convenient.” These types of discussions help move important debates forward. But Ari ended up going far beyond the point I was trying to make. I realize I’m not the best, most clear writer out there, [...]

Last night I attended a DMYR general meeting.  Brett Moore, the night’s MC, asked me to attend so that I could plug my awesome website Complete Colorado. (if you pay attention to the Drudge Report check us out, we are the state based Colorado Drudge, but only better).  Needless to say, my presence at such [...]

by Justin Longo | 8:26 am, September 25, 2008

Another People’s Press Collective dedicated reader just sent us a copy of Protect Colorado’s Culture of Corruption Future’s latest dishonest mailer that’s dripping with more fear mongering.  You won’t be surprised that they’re still abusing Colorado’s real heroes as puppets for their elaborate LIES: Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Honesty just isn’t [...]

It would block state and local government agencies from deducting dues or fees from [...]
