Feedback Friday

Every Friday, Inside Edge answers your questions about Colorado politics. This week: What's up with Randy Reed and Bob Schaffer? Any proof of a conspiracy to get rid of Doug Bruce?

"Reed has been seen by at least one realtor pushing over or even taking ‘Open House' or ‘For Sale' signs from around Castle Rock on at least one occasion."- posted by CR2008

Dear CR2008,

Our advice to you then is to get photographic evidence of Mayor Randy Reed removing realtors' signs from lawns and send the proof here. Otherwise it's all just hearsay evidence. As you know, at the Inside Edge we have strict rules on what we can and can't include in our columns.

"Do you really think there's a conspiracy to get Doug Bruce?"- from Susan2317

Dear Susan,

Nope, not a conspiracy. But we do think that GOP legislators go out of their way to discredit him because they personally don't like him. We don't think that's a good reason to not support him. Just like supporting Obama just because you find him attractive is also ridiculous. We also think not liking Bruce dovetails perfectly with some Republicans' desire to get rid of TABOR. Politics is better when everyone's motives for doing things are well known.

"PolitickerCO: I should ask you - what do you think of the proposed referendum to recognize an embryo as a person? Do you have an opinion on that?"- posted by Billy D

Dear Billy D,

Love your work, especially when you played Lando Calrissian in Star Wars.

Of course we have opinions on matters of policy, like the referendum you support. But this publication is not about matters of policy, just politics.

And your politics is not supported by either of the major parties. The give-away is when you tell Bob he must "repent" of his decision not to support your referendum. We can tell you this much with absolute certainty: the fascism you and your cult followers are pushing around is no different than the Islamic extremists we fight all over the world.

"Bob Schaffer is not pro-life and this interview is the proof in the pudding. Why, Bob and Dick, are you dancing around and refusing to answer questions? Because the answers will expose you as a fake?"- posted by Boulder Guy

Dear Boulder Guy,

The reason why Bob and Dick refuse to have anything to do with you is that you've anointed Bob Enyart as your king. What politician in his right mind would want to have anything to do with you?

Thanks for reading. Have a great weekend and we'll see you on Monday.
