"Bad Astronomer" Phil Plait, on his
web page,
endorses U.S. Air Force Lt. Colonel Hal Bidlack for Colorado's 5th
Congressional District race. Bidlack is running as a Democrat. I
couldn't really glean what his positions are. I wasn't too enthused
that Lamborn won the Republican primary in '06, but I'd have to hear
more about what Bidlack's position on issues are before saying anything
too definitive about him. What is really disturbing though is that if
you go to the
comments page
on Plait's endorsement piece. Plait gets a lot of lefties on his page
and so you have yabos there posting things like "I’m sorry, but I feel
compelled to point out that part of our problem as a species is that we
still revere images of people in military uniform in front of a
billowing flag." What a dope. Part of our problem as a country is that
we have people who don't believe anymore in the things that made
America great.
