Representative government?\u00a0 Posh.\u00a0 Morse knows more than any of the dullards who haven’t had the good sense to make a career out of politics.\u00a0 And honestly, why should it be all about “the people?”\u00a0 I mean, if they were so capable of making wise policy decisions, surely they wouldn’t have planted him in office, right?<\/p>\n

They fucked up. They trusted him!<\/p>\n

— is about the gist of it.\u00a0 Though he frames himself as Lincolnesque for having had the courage to ignore the racket being raised by the little serfs. And Morse, I should note, was the deciding vote on both the “high-capacity” magazine ban, and the defeat of an amendment to that bill that would have delayed passage until the 51 studies\u00a0 detailing the effects of previous such laws, either nationally or in other states, were reviewed, and a bill then crafted to comport with the evidence from those studies.<\/p>\n

Of course, those studies — having shown that magazine capacity bans don’t lower crime rates — need to be ignored.\u00a0 Like Colorado constituents.\u00a0 Because the Democrats had the numbers, and to them, it’s all about power and reaching the end game.\u00a0\u00a0 They were willing to sacrifice their state sovereignty and ignore the demands of voters that their rights be respected — all to work with Biden, Obama, and Bloomberg to turn Colorado into a western nanny state.<\/p>\n

I love it when the masks come off so completely<\/a>.<\/p>\n
