Suthers flunked high school lit?

OK, maybe Republican Attorney General John Suthers didn't really flunk his high school literature class. But apparently he was absent the day his teacher discussed irony. Because on Thursday, he's giving a speech entitled, "Importance of Compliance with our Campaign Laws - A Matter of Public Trust."

This is the same Attorney General John Suthers who refused to prosecute the Trailhead Group. The idea that he is speaking about "law" and "trust" is a big, fat, extremely unfunny joke.

Why won't Suthers prosecute Trailhead? Well, as House Majority Leader Alice Madden said, "Geez, let me see. Bill Owens appoints John Suthers. Bill Owens founds Trailhead... John Suthers won't prosecute Trailhead."

Citizens for Integrity in Government is planning a protest outside Suthers' speech. Folks should gather this Thursday, April 13 at noon outside the Colorado History Museum at 1300 Broadway. There will be signs. Loud noises. Possibly some chanting.

What else can you do? Vote for an attorney general who will enforce our state's laws. Like, say, Fern O'Brien.
