More Proof El Paso County Is Full of Idiots
Douglas Bruce won the GOP primary last night for a spot on theis Board of County Commissioners.

Of course, these are the same idiots who used to vote for Betty Beedy.

1. Well someone needs to kick Bruce out.

After the TABOR fiasco, he needs to be kicked out of Colorado.

2. That's a Little Extreme.....
...and possibly a DU rule violation.

I'd rather see Doug Bruce move to another state. Like Idaho. And take James Dobson, Ed Bircham, and Mike Mckee with him.

* * * * *

For the benefit of those who are out of the area:

James Dobson is the head of Focus On the Family, which is headquartered in Colorado Springs.

Ed Bircham is a local businessman who places ads in the local paper twice weekly spewing his right-wing venon - he's also tried to drive the local weekly - The Independent - out of business.

Mike McKee is a local Born-Again idiot who protests the Colorado Springs Gay Pride Parade each year wearing sackcloth and ashes, spewing quotes from the Bible all the while. He makes Fred Phelps seem liberal.

9. Hey CO Liberal
Are you from El Paso County? You just ticked off a list of names of the people I can't stand from my home town.

James Dobson - my mother-in-law works for Focus on the Family *sob* so she gets mad when I go on one of my "Dobson is the worst thing to ever happen to Christians" rants

Ed Bircham - Mister always buy local...all your copiers are made in Asia Ed, you whore. His little ads in the Gazette are grotesque...what a bigot.

Not familiar with McKee

But here are two more:

Will Perkins - the king homophobe after Dobson. I'm a great Christian...please come buy my cars. He will burn in hell for Amendment 2.

Chuck Asay - the reason I stopped my Gazette subscription. The editorial page of the Gazette was always horrible, but his "cartoons" made me sick.

El Paso County is a tough place to live, but I won't move. I can do more good in this conservative hellhole than in a liberal area.

10. No - I Just Work Here
Edited on Fri Aug-13-04 04:05 PM by CO Liberal
I work for a major defense contractor in Colorado Springs, and drive up every day from Pueblo West.

If you ever listen to Joseph Michelli's show on KVOR (740 AM) in the afternoons, Mike McKee calls in quite often. So does this imbecile named Ron who seems to do nothing all day but phone in to radio shows.

I manage to get through on Joseph's show quite often, too. I'm "Wayne from Pueblo".

BTW - Welcome to DU!!! :hi:

4. And More Proof Shows Up Every Day
Edited on Wed Aug-11-04 05:03 PM by CO Liberal
My favorite is still local GOP politician Mary Ann Tebedo, who said that teen pregnancy rates tend to go down after age 25.

:-)

7. I like how the Gazette referred to Bruce as a "Real Estate Developper"
He's a frikkin' slumlord. KKTV put him in the "Landlords Hall of Shame".

I'm ashamed the he's from around here, that's for sure.

12. No further proof is needed.

They're the only hypocrites who named their section of I-25 after that cheating on his wife (Jane Wyman with Nancy Davis), and non church going Ronald Reagan. They still worship him. :eyes:
