- What I find smug and hypocritical is that the CO fundies (actually
- Bush's guy in CO if I remember correctly) were complaining on the PBS
- NewsHour that the boycott goes against democracy because it forces the
- views of others around the country on to CO... THIS A@@ HAD THE NERVE
- TO SAY THAT AND YET HE AND HIS A@@ FRIENDS FORCED THEIR VIEWS ON TO
- DENVER, ASPEN, AND BOULDER! Jeez... why can't they just let each city
- pass its own laws and leave it at that. The guy that they interviewed
- from Bush Headquarters (forgot his name) was soooooo smug. I really
- feel sorry for anyone who has to come in to contact with people like
- him... for they are the ones who get to share in the blood of over a
- thousand teen suicides a year.
