All politicians are pieces of shit.

I agree that "all" politicians are self-interested ego-maniacs. But--we still have the choose the best out of the worst.

We know for a fact that Romer and Ritter made these bills 1284 and 109--while there were several Republicans on the floor of the senate stating they were unconstitutional and or against Admendment 20.

We also know for a fact--that Romer was cheering on an additional 10% excise tax on medical marijuana sales--that cities could charge in addition to the sales tax. These guys saw what they believed to be this "pot of Gold" industry--and right now have over licensed fee-ed it, dramatically over-regulated it--to where it is almost impossible for an owner of a dispensory to make ends meet.

At this time--I am simply voting for someone who states the first thing he is going to do is lay-off state employees--cut the size of government--and stop over-regulating business in this state. Someone who is more interested in growing private sector business that trying to regulate it out of business. And that was exactly the intention of 1284 and 109.
