Assbag of the Week - Doug Bruce

Last week, House Speaker Andrew Romanoff called the newly *appointed* State Representative Doug Bruce. Speaker Romanoff asked Doug to report to work on the 1st day of session, which is Jan 9th, to be sworn in.

This is a reasonable request, starting a job on the same day it begins.

Doug decided he will be sworn in on Jan 14th instead.

The previous State Representative Bill Cadman's midway point for this term is Jan 13th. If Doug waits until a day after the midway point he can serve an extra two years - meaning four terms total vs. three terms that are currently allowed.

This will also set him up for a senate run when the current Senator becomes term limited.

The House is now putting forth a bill to prevent this from happening in the future.

Mr. Republican and Enemy of Taxes is causing us to spend more tax money on a bill to stop similar tactics.

Another Republican politician using the law in an unethical manner. We have had enough - haven't we?

Whether you are in House District 15 or not, please send an email right away to Mr. Bruce to let him know your disapproval of his actions and urge him to start his job Jan 9th.

Encourage your friends and family to do the same.

And while you're at it - wish the b*stard a Merry Christmas from me.

Thanks.
