Bloomberg spent $350,000 in the Colorado recall elections, and only managed to round up 23,000 votes.

From the moment the recall effort in Colorado began, money started flowing in from out-of-state gun control proponents and influence flowed in from Chicago. It was all part of an effort to protect state senators Angela Giron (D-Pueblo) and John Morse (D-Colo. Springs) from being recalled.

When the gun control measures were passed, and then signed into law by Governor John Hickenlooper (D) on March 20, Coloradans in Giron and Morse’s districts felt hoodwinked. El Paso County Sherrif Terry Maketa said, “The two senators dismissed [their constituents’] opinions, literally said they did not want to hear from them,” thus setting the recall effort in motion.

Bloomberg kept giving money–giving $350,000 as the recall effort hit its home stretch–all in hopes of keeping Giron and Morse in a place where they could support an anti-gun agenda with which he agreed. And Obama’s Organizing For Action (OFA) operatives began showing up in Pueblo to help Giron run her senate office and to help get out the vote.

But it was not enough. And in the end, the raw, grassroots passion of Coloradans trumped the cumulative millions of dollars from people like Bloomberg, as well as the influence of the Democrat machine, and the presence of OFA.

Bloomberg Wasted $350,000 on Colorado Recall

Obama says 90% support his gun grab

His claim finally got put to the test. Angela Giron is from a heavily Democratic district.

Two Democratic lawmakers in Colorado, including the president of the state senate, were recalled Tuesday in elections brought about by their support for tougher gun control laws.

According to unofficial results, voters in Colorado Springs favored recalling state Sen. John Morse, the body’s president, by 51 percent to 49 percent. With 100 percent of precincts reporting, state Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo was defeated in her recall election, 56 percent to 44 percent.

Good evening —

I just addressed the nation about the use of chemical weapons in Syria.

In that time, we have worked with friends and allies to provide humanitarian support for the Syrian people, to help the moderate opposition within Syria, and to shape a political settlement. But we have resisted calls for military action because we cannot resolve someone else’s civil war through force.

The situation profoundly changed in the early hours of August 21, when more than 1,000 Syrians — including hundreds of children — were killed by chemical weapons launched by the Assad government.

Putin foiled my al Qaeda takeover of Syria, so I am having to make this desperate speech to try to find a new excuse to bomb Syria and help out my jihadi friends.

SACRAMENTO — New sales of semi-automatic rifles with removable magazines would be banned in California under a bill passed by the Democratic-led state legislature on Tuesday, and those who already own such weapons would have to register them.

According to the FBI, you are four times more likely to be killed by a fist, hammer or baseball bat than by a rifle. And you are 100 times more likely to die in an auto accident as be killed by a rifle.

Last year the BBC said that humans are the only major cause of climate change

Ex-sceptic says climate change is down to humans

I’m now going a step further: Humans are almost entirely the cause”

A formerly sceptical climate scientist says human activity is causing the Earth to warm, as a new study confirms earlier results on rising temperatures.

A now they are saying the exact opposite.

Researchers have found evidence to suggest that climate change, rather than humans, was the main factor that drove the woolly mammoth to extinction.

In an April 20 message from the American Embassy in Tokyo, Ambassador Walter Mondale reported that a twenty-member gang moved to Japan after finding criminal activity in the US “too dangerous because of the prevalence of guns in the homes. After two dozen successful burglaries in gun-free Tokyo, they managed to mail over six million dollars worth of stolen cash and jewels” to conspirators in Colombia.

“Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms … The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard, against the tyranny which now appears remote in America but which historically has proven to be always possible.”

Obama spent all last week saying that diplomacy and the UN were a waste of time, because Russia would get in the way. The only solution he said was to do an unbelievably small large scale military effort with no boots on the ground to get rid of Assad and was not about regime change.

Then Putin kicked his ass, and now he says :

Obama: Diplomacy in Syria deserves more time

Darth Obama takes a third body blow in four  days. Australia punished his pasty Welsh girlfriend and her friends for her carbon tax, Putin kicked his ass in Syria, and now Colorado has recalled two Scumocrats who sold out to the New York and Chicago mobsters who must not be named.

Next comes governor Chickenpooper.

CHICAGO, Feb. 22— A wiretap tape was played in Federal court today on which Allen M. Dorfman, a murdered Chicago insurance executive, was heard saying the Kansas City Mafia had obtained a commitment that Roy L. Williams would be made president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.

Mr. Williams and Mr. Dorfman, along with a reputed Chicago Mafia leader, Joseph Lombardo, and two others were convicted last December of conspiracy to bribe a United States Senator and to defraud the union’s health and welfare fund. Mr. Dorfman was killed in a Chicago suburb last month.
