Wednesday Roundup, McInnis Gives The "Race" To Hickenlooper

The biggest story in progressive politics is from the Colorado Independent regarding what Scott McInnis said about Arizona's new racist immigration laws.

He said

"Finally some governor stood up and said 'We are stopping the retreat. No more retreat. Federal government if you are not going to do it, we are going to do it'... because [illegal immigration] has impacts to all the parties involved in the state of Arizona... By the way, if a person has a driver's license or a government I.D., there is a presumption of citizenship. That is not the issue. The issue is that government refuses to acknowledge that illegal means illegal."

Even Tom Tancredo doesn't want the police to randomlypull people over because they're suspected of being... something...but he wants it to be clear: like a unicorn, the racial profiling Arizona law is KICK ASS!

Protesters will gather at Coors Field while the Rockies play the AZ Diamondbacks at to protest the Arizona lawfrom 12:30 to 1:30.

Ooh! And if you didn't know, we're more decentralized n stuff. Why the Left Wins Online

Five Boulder activists were arrested for trespassing after a demonstration with fake windmills on top of piles of coal at an Xcel plant.

Enterprise Zones now have a $250,000.00 cap on their tax credit for the next two years but they'll get it all back. I caught a bit of the debate about it yesterday and Representative BJ Nikkel said "I can't believe we're still fighting for Colorado businesses. This is not something we should be doing." Of course I'm taking that out of context but it's still funny.

College tuition structure might get a new model. I wish this article would be more specific.
