Probably folks in Colorado are the biggest winners. Because, in spite of the fact that Colorado voted for Bush, our state legislature has changed hands for the first time in many years. Democrats now control both the state Senate and House, where Republicans ruled before.

Our legislature hasn't accomplished much at all in the last four years, except moralistic bullshit like trying to force the pledge of allegiance and flags on the walls of every classroom. All supported mightily by our dickhead Republican Governor Bill Owens, (repeat dickhead).

Not up for re-election, dickhead Owens is going to have a much less comfortable second term. Maybe some of the actual work of the State of Colorado will actually begin.

It is difficult to understand the schizophrenic nature of Colorado voters. The same folks who elected a Democratic state house and senate also voted to send Marilyn Musgrave, a real whacko reactionary anti-gay zealot, back to Washington. And all nine of Colorado's electoral votes went to The Shrub in Chief.

Things are turning around. Maybe four more years of disasterous GOP policy will be enough to make the voters see through these goddam wanna-be-messiahs, and throw these idiots out completely. Thanks, BlueJay
