State Senator Evie Hudak has been taken quite the lashing this week for her disrespectful and condescending attitude toward a rape victim testifying on behalf of the right of women to defend themselves on college campuses with a concealed weapon.
The increasingly left-wing Denver Post editorial board took her to task in a scathing piece yesterday:
You might think a twice-elected state senator would have the good sense to treat a rape victim with respect during testimony at the state Capitol.
…What is gained by trying to one-up a rape victim and her belief she could have beaten the odds?
And given the dust-up after state Rep. Joe Salazar’s rape comments when the bill was debated in the House, why didn’t Hudak have the sense to exercise restraint?
But it’s not the first time Hudak has employed a confrontational attitude toward a young woman in her way politically.
Hudak’s bullying behavior can be seen as far back as 1994, when she was running for a State House seat in Arvada, making a 14 year-old girl cry and allegedly trespassing on private property to replace an opponent’s yard sign with hers.
Recalled The Colorado Observer last fall:
In 1994…Hudak, then running for an Arvada State House seat, got into a heated argument with a 14-year-old girl over the fact that the girl’s mother replaced a Hudak yard sign with one of Hudak’s opponents.
Hudak had reportedly been driving through the neighborhood when she noticed the home of Joan and Rocky Germano had a yard sign for her opponent, Independent Joann Conte, where hers had previously been. Frustrated, Hudak pulled over feeling the need to inquire why the sign had been changed, she told The Denver Post at the time.
Confronting the Germano’s teenage daughter, Hudak demanded to speak with her parents. The girl told Hudak her parents weren’t home, but according to the police report, Hudak heard the girl’s older sister and pushed her way past the girl and entered the Germano’s home.
Hudak denies ever entering the home, but the Germanos filed a police complaint for first degree criminal trespass.
What Hudak doesn’t deny is what happened next. According to the police report, Hudak “took the Conte sign down and replaced it with her own Hudak campaign sign. E. Hudak then left the area.”
Joan Germano asked police to inform Hudak she was not welcome any more at the Germano residence.
Evie Hudak is an embarrassment to the state of Colorado and has no place in the State Senate.
I say we send her somewhere mice and sunny with sharia law and ask her what her opinion of gun ownership is after a few weeks of that.
Could this have been in one of those districts where there were more votes than registered voters???
Nah, it's only bullying when someone else does it. When Lib Dems harass, threaten, humiliate, libel, or otherwise trash someone they're "champions of civil rights." Evie Hudak and her nasty cabal are an embarrassment to Colorado.
Not only is Evie Hudak vicious, callous, and black-hearted, she appears to be mentally unstable as well. Time to commit her to the home for old, angry, lib women.
And yet the cries are that the Republican Party has a war on women. The feminazis of the Democratic Party are the biggest threat to women.
Evie Hudak, that name should go down in history like Abraham Gancwajch or Stella Kuber. (A dog that would turn on its own.) I have no respect for that troll. I think a new phase that uses her last name should be coined. Like, " I need to take a Hudak", or "What a piece of Hudak". Lets see what comes to mind, any ideas?
She won by 332 votes. Perhaps she could un-win by thousands? If not, she's there to do her damage until 2016.
The more I hear of this woman's behavior, the more I think she needs to resign. She is an embarrassment to Colorado and we are being laughed at all over the country because of her insensitivity to women and rape victims. Just like others are laughing at Joe Salazar's stupid "pen and whistle" comments. Where do we get these people and who on earth would vote for them? Obviously, some whose IQ isn't in the three digits. The current majority in both houses of the Colorado State House belong in Central Casting. How could the voters of Colorado stoop to this level. I love Colorado, I do not like Colorado government as it is today. Many are ashamed of our representation.
Wouldn't this be considered "Bullying"? I thought D's were defenders of the anti-bulling.
Typical of the kind of human garbage you might find in the Democratic Party in Colorado!
Well said; by both Colorado Peak Politics and the Denver Post.
Enough said
