Since when is a constituency holding an elected official accountable vindictive?

When the politician in question is a Democrat. If he were a Republican, then it would be an example of the system’s just and perfect operation.

"Vindictive and vengeful" for voters to demand that politicians heed what their constituency wants.

What a concept..........

Waaaaaah whining New York Slimes can’t stand that duh Dems lost in their appeals to the CO Secretary of State, and in a Denver Court to cheat the citizens out of their CO Constitutional rights to recall corrupt politicians.

Waaah the New York Times will be crying again on September 10th.

However, the New Yawk Times pimps and hookers didn’t find the recall of politicians in Wisconsin “vindictive” a few years ago. Hey New Yawk Times! Stuff it! Go campaign and endorse your Weiner.

The world according to the New York Times:

  1. IRS illegally targeting conservatives for their political views: Not vindictive.

  2. Citizens legally exercising a well-established state right of recall: Vindictive.
The New York Times STAYS insane.

“The gun lobby’s defeat in Colorado would send a stirring message to statehouses across the nation that the public must not be denied in demanding better gun safety,” the editorial read.

Rather crude bit of framing there, but then the Times is like that. The whole affair is The Public vs the Evil Gun Lobby. Because who knows what's best for The Public better than a bunch of suited millionaires on the editorial board of the NY Times half a country away?

This may be counter-productive. I suspect not too many in Colorado pay much attention to the NYT, and may resent the interference.

And when lefties in Wisconsin tried (and failed dismally) to recall Scott Walker, that was just "democracy in action," huh?

Shut up, Times. Obama's boots need a spit shine.
