A REPUBLICAN, REALLY?

By co-sponsoring liberal legislation to remove a cap on state spending, Rep. Don Marostica of Loveland is abandoning a basic tenet of his own party: limited government.

If Marostica is unable to uphold and defend his party’s principles at crunch-time, then he should personally repay every dollar that the Republicans spent on electing him to the Colorado Legislature.

The quicker the GOP rids itself of the Snowes, the Collinses, the Specters and now the Marosticas, the stronger –- and more reliable -- the party will be.

Wasn't it Benjamin Franklin who said that if we don't hang together, we will all hang together?
