Christine Smith (I) to run against Tom Massey (R)
From mountainmail.com I think,
Citing Rep. Tom Massey as promoting "anti-taxpayer and anti-liberty legislature," Smith said, she wants to bring "a voice of liberty to legislature."
"I want the people of District 60 to have an opportunity to have a representative who truly believes in personal freedom and economic freedom," Smith said.
She said she doesn't support more fees or regulations for businesses because more licensing "hurts the small businessman and affects rural landowners."
Jan. 19, Smith said she was interviewed by Paul Molloy on his "Freedom Works" radio show about the "medical marijuana controversy in Colorado."
The radio show is heard in Tampa Bay, Fla., Little Rock, Ark., Memphis, Tenn., Branson, Mo., and parts of Mississippi, Texas and Louisiana.
During that interview, Smith said medical marijuana is a "brand new, booming business," and Coloradans "haven't asked for more regulation or for the state to get involved."
Describing medical marijuana as a "cheap medicine," Smith said many lives have been saved by it.
She made the argument prescription drugs, which require a doctor's recommendation, are not taxed.
If the government wants to tax medical marijuana, it should be legalized like liquor or cigarettes, she said.
"There needs to be consistency," she said.
Smith said, "My political views cross political party lines because my guiding principle is always freedom.
"In freedom, people enjoy the greatest opportunity to create the life they want for themselves and their family. When I think of Colorado, I think of freedom."
