Let's dive into the ever-tumultuous waters of grassroots conservatism in Douglas County and its torrent dance with the Republican Establishment and those pesky RINOs. Oh, the drama! It’s badly written scrip from a daytime drama but with more tears and the charisma of a dead rat.
First off, let's address the elephant in the room, and no, I'm not talking about the GOP mascot. I’m talking about the good ol' Establishment feeling as jittery as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs whenever we grassroots conservatives enter the scene, you know, newbies. Why, you ask? Well, it’s simple. Grassroots conservatives are like that one relative who tells it like it is at family reunions, exposing shady schemes. Uncomfortable? Yes. Necessary? Absolutely.
Take, for instance, the audacious case of voting for a Democrat House Chair in the Colorado State House when a Republican was ripe for the picking. What's going on there, Anthony Hartsook HD44? It's like choosing a tofu salad at Shanahan’s, it just doesn't make sense unless you've lost your mind or, in this case, your political compass. Either way, you most likely should not be in office.
And oh, I can’t let off the hook those Douglas County Commissioners with their sneaky appointments of large donors to a Water Commission and sidelining Lora Thomas from representing her constituents. It's as transparent as a brick wall and about as subtle as a Drag Queen show Abe and Lora greenlighted. The grassroots conservatives point this out, and what happens? Suddenly, we're the bad guys, tearing the party apart, disenfranchising voters, and apparently, we’re also 'not Christian'. Because, you know, holding elected officials accountable is such an un-Christian thing to do. Please, is that all you have got?
The Establishment and their RINO buddies love to play the victim when called out. (This could not be more evident than the recent diatribe from Andy Jones sharing his sour grapes or Joy Overbeck's vile article working to defend her Establishment and RINO buddies). They start flinging accusations like a monkey flings... well, you know. But here’s the kicker, we grassroots conservatives have skin thicker than an American Alligator and a bite to match. We've endured years of faux conservatism, empty promises, and enough backstabbing to qualify as a plotline in Goodfellas. Their insults and threats? It's laughable; just BRING IT!
To wrap this up, dear grassroots conservative reader, keep your chin up. The Establishment and RINOs may have the money and the power, but we have something far more potent, the truth, resilience, and a sarcastic wit that can slice through their hypocrisy like a hot knife through butter. Onward, grassroots warriors!
