I lived in Colorado Springs, late '70's, Interned with legal aid. I loved it. What happened?

It became the capitol of the religious far right. James Dobson Focus on the Family, the rest of the homophibic "christians". It's why the Air Force Academy is one Fundamentalist scandal after another since that fake minister who ran the Vineyard church there in the 80s and 90s.

that's too bad...it felt like a really nice, civilized place to live in 1965.

but, as Sam Goldwyn is reputed to have said, "we've passed a lot of water since then."

My grandparents lived there and I used to love to go visit in the 50s. Go out to Maniou Springs for the mineral water, go have a picnic in the Garden of the Gods, ride the cog railroad once to the top of Pike's Peak.

don't even get me started on that Vineyard thing. I suppose it's nice to be reminded that the very rich and famous can be asshole lemmings as much as the rest of us, but we already knew that and that guy went WAY TOO FAR, even for one of those greedy evangelical assholes.

I contributed regularly to Adam Frisch’s campaign. I had such high hopes of him beating the gun packing boobert. 😿

Am I correct that even with his concession it’s not final? Automatic recount underway?
