Another natural disaster for Colorado, another black tie event for Governor John Hickenlooper. Saturday night, Hick wined and dined with Denver’s top oil and gas folks at a black tie gala as Coloradans suffered with intense flooding throughout the state.
Of course, this isn’t the first time that Hick schmoozed with the state’s finest as Colorado experienced a major event. The first was when Hick attended the Mizel dinner after issuing the Dunlap non-decision. Then, as Colorado families were evacuating due to wildfires, he held a pricey campaign kickoff at History Colorado. And, now, as some Coloradans are seeing their homes washed away by flooding (most of whom have no flood insurance), Hick attends yet another black tie event.
Just one question for you, Guv. Would it kill you to miss a party when your constituents are suffering so?
thankfully we voted to not allow drilling in Longmont and we will keep fighting especially in light of the spills everywhere in Weld imagine that happening next to schools and houses where hick and his friends want to drill just step down hickenlooper your days are numbered anyway why make us embarrass you
I want Hick OUT..but remember we need the Libertarians on our side to make this happen..and they shy away from "petty quarrels" . This little piece of news is "marginally, almost petty"…and there is PLENTY of solid progressive invasive stuff going on in this state that we can focus upon. thanks for your dedication….we appreciate web sites like this.
He should have never gotten in to begin with! Too many letter only voters.
Sounds like an Obama underling….well trained. Colorado needs to dump the Hick!!!
Be careful where we cast our stones. I remember the Democrats condemning Bush for the 8 minutes… Life goes on and there is that balance where the Governor has to stay out of the way of the rescue efforts and rely that the people responsible are handling the situation. This goes for a Democrat or hopefully next election Republican Governor. This is petty politics and let's focus on the real issues and concerns. Besides, aren't most oil and gas folks right leaning since the left wants to shut them down and kick them out of CO?
We sent Hick a message a week ago. Now I'm betting that since we promised he was next if he didn't straighten out…
He has decided to be as much like oblunder as possible. And party his ass off. Heaven knows he won't be able to do it after the taxpayer money is no longer available.
Should be on top of recall list!
he's just like his idol Obummer
He's trying to be like Barry!!!
well when will the voters wake up and pay attention to who they vote in not becuse theyhad more money to use than one other one but listen to them and check there background… wake up ;ppl
Sadly typical
Where is the Oil and gas folks come in. I would think they would be on our side.He sure is not.
Hickenlooper must go
What??!!! The imperial politician class should never do without. And the taxpayers should pay for that glass of wine too. The proletariat will just have to do with less so their betters can have more. I think it is written the Democrat party platform. Long live Dear Leader Obammy!
