Rocky Mountain High »

Well, Obama got back to Washington, DC after his long weekend away in Chicago. Then he went wheels up to go to Denver, CO to sign the $787 billion dollar Porkulus bill. Why Denver? Because CO was SO helpful to him during the Campaign, and that’s where he got to play Greek [...]
