State Republicans falling apart.
You Do Have a Mirror, Don't You?
Republican Congresswoman Marilyn Musgrave lashed out at her party on Friday, taking aim at the “tax and spend” wing of the GOP. "Sometimes we feel like the Republican Party has lost its soul," she said of herself and like-minded GOPers. "We need to work harder and energize Republicans to get back on track."

According to the Rocky Mountain News:

Before the conference began, there was much eye-rolling about a Friday newspaper article describing a Republican news conference a day earlier. At the event, two Republicans said that without a same-sex marriage ban in the state constitution, Colorado could see unions of humans with animals, and school funding and prisons could be affected. Some conservatives said those statements made the party look ridiculous.

Musgrave’s comments illustrate what appears to be becoming a trend in our state that could have a lot to do with the 2006 elections. The Republican Party is becoming a punchline in Colorado, and if Democrats are smart enough to take advantage and get the word out to the public, it could be a long time before elephants are back in charge at the zoo.

Before the angry comments start coming, take a step back and take a look. Your reaction will likely be the same as ours here at Colorado Pols when we observe the Republicans: “What the hell are they doing?”

1. What angry comments? I love this stuff.
They're coming unglued. Other DUers: Watch for this comedy, coming to YOUR state in the near future.

I second the neeners.

2. Funny...I've always seen it that way.
It's amazing how far they have to go before people start scratching their heads.

6. Yeah I've heard this gay marriage = bestiality before
What the hell is that? Can that be at all justified even by someone against gay marriage.
Seriously, can someone even tell me the thought process on that. I don't get it at all.

BTW, coloradodem2005, what's the current situation with that professor in Colorado that had the audacity to exercise the first amendment?

7. I think they are saying that he should not be fired for what he said.
Though, he may be taken to task for possible fraud. Who knows if that is real or bullshit.

5. Did you ever think you would say...
"Congresswoman Musgrave is right on"? The fact that it can be said is scary in and of itself.

9. You've got that one right.
Honestly... a lot of Repubs are coming out now, angry at themselves for voting for this freak-show. (They're words).

Very similiar to the words "zoo."

13. I keep urging "us" to join with "them"
We have power out here and "the powers" know it. That's why they're trying to stifle us w/that Gannon Panel Bullcrap...

We only have a few months left before our plugs could be pulled. Not all Repuks are w/their party any longer. We should join together as true patriot Americans, before it's too late.

Running out of freedoms here.
