Denver DUers: Kindly bombard RM News w/ LTTEs regarding Bush endorsement
AP link: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/N/NEWSPAPER_ENDORSEMENTS?SITE=SCCOL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT
and their excerpt:
"If it weren't for 9/11, the 2004 presidential campaign would be a weary reprise of the one four years ago, with John Kerry substituting for Al Gore. ... What was different four years ago, of course, is that America was not at war. Now it is, and George W. Bush's vision for American foreign policy is a major reason we support him."

Worst. Endorsement. Ever.

2. This Is No Suprise
in 2000 I canceled our subscription for their Bush endorsement, unfortunately we still get this piece of shit rag on Saturdays. This endorsement is a scathing attack on Kerry vs praise of their candidate.

3. How about a link to the newspaper?

I remember when the Rocky Mountain News could be counted on as a protector of the environment, and on other important issues. Sorry to hear they have slid into the abyss.

On edit: wrote my letter. I heart DU

Sorry, I've been following the endorsements all evening, and most of the major dailies' websites turn out to be registration or subscription only. RMN is an exception, the only good thing I have to say about them at the moment.

Edit: Jesus! This shit could have been written by Karl Rove! Go read it; you'll never want for ipecac.
My sympathies to Denver DUers; hell, I thought it was bad down here (in SC)

7. Yep, the Rocky Mountain News is basically a Republican
paper. The whole thing is propaganda. Thank God we have another major newspaper.

5. They are the rightwing mountain news.
They endorsed Bush and Beauprez. Though they did endorse Salazar. That was the only thing that redeems them at all.

6. The Bush endorsement wasn't a surprise.
The Salazar endorsement was since the Rocky is a Republican paper.
