"Educate the Idiots" makes into a Colorado District 6 debate. H/T: Mount Virtus

Whose watching who

By now you know that I am not really Pat Stryker, nor Al Yates, or any member of Democracy Alliance.

However, it seems this little ole blog has attracted the attention of the authors I pretend to be.

whois 216.17.154.131
Front Range Internet Inc. NET-FRII-1 (NET-216-17-128-0-1)
216.17.128.0 - 216.17.255.255
Bohemian Companies NET-BCT1-01 (NET-216-17-154-128-1)
216.17.154.128 - 216.17.154.159

You see, someone from Pat Stryker's company, Bohemian Companies, visited the educate the idiots blog. In addition, it also so happens that Front Range Internet may be her internet provider due to the IP address.


So, Who is Pat Stryker?

According to Colorado Biz:

In January 2004, ColoradoBiz named Pat Stryker the state's most powerful person because she was using her wealth "to influence how Coloradans live, and more so than anyone else on the list." Striker has continued to do just that. She was one of the "Gang of Four" wealthy Democrats who plowed enough money into state legislative races at the end of that same year to turn around the majority in the General Assembly.

At the end of 2005, she joined the same partners in an effort to fund the successful Referendum C campaign that broke a $3.7 billion lock on state spending created by TABOR, the Tax Payer's Bill of Rights. According to Al Yates, former president of Colorado State University, who acts as a spokesman for Stryker, she now considers herself a philanthropist, activist and business woman, whose set of Fort Collins companies, the Bohemian Cos., and her foundation, work toward improving the quality of life all Coloradans experience.

She remains listed on the Forbes 400 as the state's fourth richest resident, with a fortune of $1.7 billion. Although Phil Anschutz passed Stryker up in this year's ColoradoBiz list of Most Powerful, mostly by dint of some extraordinary power-returns on his most recent investments, Stryker's continued involvement in activities that have a lasting effect on the state keeps her well positioned near the top of this list.

He said, she said story on the Denver Post

The Denver Post found the leaker of the documents - Isaac Smith, an engineer who works at an energy company. I have never heard of this fellow who interned at BigHorn but I am glad he came forward because someone else besides me needed to show how shady we are at CO Democracy Alliance.

This story isn't that exciting - its very, he said, she said - so let's move to where the real story is at: Sunday's paper, Progressive gang uses non profits to push politics.

Remember how I earlier said that the Sunday paper would show a side-by-side comparison of the "stolen" document v non-stolen, undated document, well it never ran. Was it that Mark read the blog and realized, maybe Pat is right - let's not keep lying?

Nevertheless, I praise Ms. Fender for articulating how well the progressive infrastructure has been built in CO.

While everyone in CO Democracy Alliance declined to comment, I wanted to share my thoughts with Ms. Fender, however the gang wouldn't let me talk, that's why I started this blog.

"Yates, who represents Stryker, declined to comment. Denver lawyer Ted Trimpa, a representative for Gill, did not return multiple phone calls."

What the article doesn't drive home are the following:

- CODA's office where at BigHorn Center, where we never paid rent. We never paid for our shared office space and I haven't been able to locate in Big Horn's 990 form their in-kind donation for the office space, if there was even one.

- Read the document below and read our funding recommendations for 527s and c3s. Now, removing the "educate the idiots" document you can still see that we were coordinating heavily among our allies. I think this makes us the new, progressive-left wing conspiracy.

- Finally, beyond the papers, Ms. Fender doesn't have the day-to-day operations that are more remarkable. At times House Speaker Andrew Ramnoff would visit the office, pick up a check and deposit it later for his House 527 group. What's wrong with this?

During 2006, Speaker Ramnoff was running his re-election campaign and neither him nor his campaign could coordinate with the House 527, i-l-l-e-g-a-l. Do you see why he needed to be covert?

While, its too late to take actions against Ramnoff and the rest of us. Coloradans should be weary, trust no political ad, no CO media matters e-alert, no Colorado Confidential blog post, etc. Do your own independent research prior to voting this November.

(Disclaimer: I should let you know, I helped start Democracy Alliance national with George Soros. Read Capital Research study on us. )

Rasm v UNLV

Gameday in Fort Collins!

We better win this game since in 2004 I gave CSU $20 million for their football program.

I really did this for Al not the football team.

Go Rams!

I can't fall asleep, my thoughts

I can’t fall asleep. I am worried about our current situation forgery document v so-called non-forged, undated document.

Yikes.

The interesting thing about this debacle is that if the document is a fake it still doesn’t deny that meetings occurred among us. It still shows a critical point 527s, c3, and c4 should not be coordinating efforts together. It’s illegal.

So in a way, whatever Mark produces to the Denver Post, we are still screwed.

Most of you may be asking what is Marks background on all this besides being an attorney. Well, he is part of the Colorado Democracy Alliance infrastructure.

In 2004, he helped start Fair Vote Colorado a project of the defunct think tank, Bighorn Center run by my good geologist whiz, Rutt Bridges.

Marks intentions for Fair Vote were the following (excerpt from a Rocky Mountain News article published on Oct 26, 2004)

"We're working right through Election Day to make sure everyone legally registered to vote has their ballot counted," Mark Grueskin, 50, said.

He is an old hand at such matters, having been among the squad of attorneys who oversaw the recount of the Bob Beauprez-Mike Feeley 7th Congressional District race two years ago.

With the Florida 2000 fiasco still looming large and the huge influx of newly registered voters in Colorado this time out, he says the participation of attorneys in the next three weeks is crucial.

"There are new federal voting laws, new state laws, confusion at the secretary of state level, and we are still awaiting clarity from the court on the issue of identification and provisional ballots, so our hope is to supply our expertise to elections officials," he said.

His sole goal has nothing to with either party, Mark Grueskin said. It is simply uniform treatment of voters. If it is an issue of ID, a provisional or absentee ballot question or someone's name not appearing on the rolls, he and other lawyers want to help get votes cast and counted.

"If we can learn about issues early on Election Day, we want to get them corrected quickly," he said.

He figures the job will be complicated by the uncertainty still surrounding voting rules in the state, and the manner in which they are interpreted by workers at the precinct level.

"We're looking for clarity and uniformity," he said. "If everyone who is entitled to vote does so, we will have done our job."

His firm is one of six that have signed up with nonpartisan fairvotecolorado.org. And "another firm called today with a list of lawyers who are willing to monitor the election in Colorado," spokesman Mark Eddy said.

If Marks goal had nothing to do with either party, why is that in the attendance of his meeting minutes there aren’t center-right folks. Makes you wonder, huh.

CO Democracy Alliance in the Denver Post (Jessica Fender)

It's Friday.

Friday's are always good days. They are even better when you get the last word at the end of the news cycle.

Our attorney Mark Grueskin has defended us by saying the educate the idiots memo is a forgery. He is bringing his own document to prove that the document shown was based on another document. Watch for Sunday's follow-up article where Jessica Fender will do a comparison of both documents.

Here's what I have to say to this, the document Mark is bringing is also a fake!

Jesus, this lie is getting bigger and bigger.

You see, several mainstream media sources have had the documents since the beginning of the year. The Rocky Mountain News at one point was going to write a story, they interviewed people and asked them, have you ever seen this document? Obviously we all wet our pants and said, Hell No!

The answer wasn't no and this is a fake and we can prove it because its based on this document. But no, that wasn't the answer we gave. Why didn't we say this from the beginning? (Makes you think, huh.)

Well, Mark and the rest of us have had the time to create a document because we knew the right-wing conspiracy was going to do something with it, so we planned our defense. Make an "authentic" document. Brilliant! I love it.

So kids, this is a lesson of how government and media works. Isn't lovely?

I am glad I don't work and just spend my inheritance money. It feels so good.

Update: My collegues released this statement

The Colorado Democracy Alliance has issued the following statement:

"Whoever provided the documents to Face The State has forged, altered and falsified critical material. The Colorado Democracy Alliance would never have used such offensive language to describe the work of labor unions or the progressive community."

Guys, the gig is up, we were busted. Let's come clean before it gets worse.

XOXO
