Colorado veterans speak out on Memorial Day

Democratic nominee for governor Bill Ritter will spend Memorial Day marching in the the Commerce City Memorial Day Parade. After the parade, he'll accept the endorsement of Colorado Veterans for America. An easy choice, given Both Ways Bob Beauprez's sketchy record on veterans' affairs.

Meanwhile, another Colorado veteran, CD6 Democratic candidate Bill Winter, has been firing up the blogosphere with posts like this one on Daily Kos:

I know I didn't give ten years of my life to serving America in the Marine Corps and the Navy only to stand by and do nothing as hate and discrimination are written into the law! I'm going to stand and fight - fight for equality, fight for what is right, fight for freedom and equality for ALL Americans...

Happy Memorial Day!
