As it said on a small sign on Harry Truman’s desk when he was president, “The Buck Stops Here.” This means that no matter what his administration was doing, ultimately Truman was responsible for the actions of those below him. The Colorado political atmosphere was rocked when Governor Bill Ritter announced he wasn’t seeking re-election [...]

President Obama, I work for Flying Dog Brewery, a Craft Brewery only 42 miles away from White House (in Frederick, Maryland). With your upcoming happy hour with Professor Gates and Office Crowley, I would have hoped that you would support American-owned Craft Beer companies, and selected an American-owned and American-made Craft Beer. With a large [...]

I never got anything done for the Inauguration of our newest President. And this seems like a pretty momentous occasion to not write a blog entry about Barack Obama, marking the event. And now it’s the day after the Inauguration. I hope that the coming years of my infrequent political blog entries are as enthusiastic [...]

The DNC is in Denver. So are protesters. Rage Against the Machine played a free show at the Denver Coliseum this afternoon, and then led a march right past my work. So I went outside to watch. About 75 policemen in riot gear were on hand to watch, too, along with about 30 bike cops. [...]

Denver Direct posts a press release from Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper about the upcoming Democratic Convention. Hickenlooper says there won’t be much of a problem with traffic and the added 50,000 people who will be in attendance this coming August. I’d like to go to a protest to check it out, even if I don’t [...]

That’s something I never thought I’d write. But Denver native Sinbad has conflicting reports about his trip to Bosnia with Hillary Clinton in 1996. Yes, ladies and gentleman, Sinbad. A B or C-list celeb has the authority to smash a campaign into pieces.

Undoubtedly, you know about how the Governor of New York fucked a prostitute like 10 times and it cost him his job. The woman who whored herself out to the Guvn’r, it turns out, has a MySpace profile! OK, it’s not really that surprising. I just looked again, and it was taken down so I [...]

I should have posted my thoughts on this subject a while back, because I’ve been thinking about it for a while. When deciding on a Democratic nominee before the Colorado Caucuses, I decided that it’s important to endorse a candidate that has the best chance of becoming President. I feel that Obama understands the younger [...]

Hillary Clinton showed some emotion on the campaign trail today. My guess is that she was crying because her hopes of getting the nomination are slipping away. Crying is also my last resort. Let’s say that I’m pretty much already getting dumped by someone (as Hillary is getting dumped by Iowans and the New Hampsters), [...]

Lots of people are thinking that Al Gore will run for President as a late entry into the 2008 race. CNN has an interesting article about Gore’s new job as a Venture Capitalist, specializing in alternative and green energy companies. I think that Gore seems right at home in this new job, and he’s got [...]
