First Thoughts on the Freshly Dead SB 1226

by Eileen | 5:45 pm, March 15, 2013

At PPC, we are just fascinated by the far left.  It’s a macabre fascination, but still, we never tire for long of watching and discussing proggie behavior. And we do try to understand how the moonbats interpret the world around them and how they construct their arguments.  This is actually a worthy hobby for any [...]

Evie Hudak Cited a Bad Statistic from a Biased, Fifteen-Year-Old Study. But it Gets Even Worse

by Eileen | 8:56 am, March 7, 2013

Evie Hudak’s ammunition in trying to shame a rape victim was a substantially incorrectly cited ‘fact’ from a study that is itself fifteen years old. Gosh, and to think we right-wing gun nuts are scared of all those powerful researchers and analysts supporting the lefties. The study in question is itself a fine example of [...]

by Eileen | 5:44 pm, March 5, 2013

If the Colorado Democrats put their foot in their mouth one more time on gun rights, I am going to recommend mercy killing for the lot of them.  To be clear, we voters are the one who deserve a little mercy. Joe Salazar has largely gotten away with his characterization of women as histrionic little [...]

by Eileen | 1:43 pm, February 11, 2013

I thought I’d take a look at the privacy related bills in play in the current legislative session and see where they are. HB 13-1015, Tracy Kraft-Tharp’s bid to turn over data about mental health treatments to a government run database, passed Health, Insurance, and Environment 9-2 and now awaits action by the entire House.  [...]

My State Rep Is Second-To-Last In The CUT Ratings!

by Mike Krause | 11:36 am, July 10, 2012

Each year, the Colorado Union of Taxpayers (CUT) rates members of the legislature as friends or foes of Colorado taxpayers.  I am quite disappointed to see that for 2012 my own state representative from House District 4 in northwest Denver, Dan Pabon, was second-to-last with a CUT rating of 3.57 percent.  Seriously Dan, only second-to-last? [...]

In a surprisingly rapid decision following last Thursday’s oral arguments in challenges to a Democrat-drawn Congressional Redistricting map previously approved by Denver District Court Judge Robert Hyatt, the Colorado Supreme Court announced in a court order issued Monday morning (5 December) that it affirmed Hyatt’s ruling in the lower court and the ‘Moreno South Map’ [...]

Colorado Supreme Court rejects state legislative district maps, remands to Colorado Reapportionment Commission for corrections

by CTBC Director | 4:11 pm, November 16, 2011

The Colorado Supreme Court rejected the state legislative district maps submitted by the Colorado Reapportionment Commission, remanding the maps back to the commission with instructions for addressing constitutional deficiencies.
The Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling, “ In re Reapportionment of the Colorado General Assembly,” rejected arguments putting “competitiveness” ahead of constitutional criteria for defining the boundaries of Colorado’s state [...]

by CTBC Director | 11:11 am, November 11, 2011

In a surprise move announced at the close of Thursday’s business day, Denver District Court Judge Robert Hyatt approved the Democrat “Moreno Map” for Colorado’s Congressional districts – “a blow to Colorado Republicans that could affect election outcomes for the next decade.”
On the macro (statewide) level, the most noticeable changes:
