"Yeah, but I commited that crime a whole year ago..."

Senate Majority (and it feels so good to write "majority") Leader Ken Gordon is in the Denver Post today. He wants the Colorado Court of Appeals to rule that the Republicans illegally rewrote the blue book for the 2004 election. At the behest of special interest groups, the then-ruling party changed the wording that explained measures regarding construction liability and tobacco taxes.

The Republican's response? Partially that the election has long since passed so who the hell cares. This strikes me as the lamest defense ever.

This story is a great illustration in how the press reports both sides of an issue, even when one party has no logical ground to stand on. I realize reporters aren't supposed to judge. But how did reporter Chris Frates not laugh out loud when the legislature's staff director attempted a defense this lame? So much for the liberal media, eh?
