Did you get outraged at the Sept. 11 attacks? With the coronavirus, we were at 56 Sept. 11s as of Aug. 13. And how silent the Republicans are, including in La Plata County! How petty their national leaders, refusing financial help for people who can’t safely return to work because of Republican foot-dragging, including Sen. Cory Gardner.
The same La Plata County Republican Party that used to send mailers to its members encouraging them to request a mail-in ballot – what do they have to say about the Postal Service sabotage/slowdown? Silence!
Hey, folks, you paid taxes to support the Postal Service. Are you OK with it getting hurt? Many businesses rely on the mail. Are you OK with throwing that tax money down the drain?
County Republicans, you used to complain about waste, fraud and abuse, but we now know you never meant it.
