Comments on: Colorado Springs welcomes homes the troops http://michellemalkin.com/2009/08/29/colorado-springs-welcomes-homes-the-troops/ news and commentary from a conservative perspective Tue, 14 Feb 2012 10:01:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: emjem24 http://michellemalkin.com/2009/08/29/colorado-springs-welcomes-homes-the-troops/comment-page-1/#comment-795053 emjem24 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 18:54:39 +0000 http://michellemalkin.com/?p=33368#comment-795053 I wished I could have been there. Since moving to C. Springs about a month ago I've been hit by allergies (ragweed), unpacking boxes of stuff, and filing claim forms for damaged stuff. No matter who moves my military husband and I, they always seem to break a particular two-tiered, antique table. Sigh.... Now, if someone could just do something about ragweed, I could actually step out of my house without sneezing!!! I wished I could have been there. Since moving to C.

I live half-way between the Springs and Denver. C.S. is still not very liberal or expensive when compared to Boulder. There are more registered Independents in Colorado than the other parties, so Colorado can swing back to a more red state, if so convinced. I hope all the self-professed Coloradans here, and Ms. Malkin, can help us move that pendulum back in the next election cycle. Our freedom is at stake.
