U.S. Congressman Mike Coffman’s decision to pursue the
English-only wedge issue is nothing more than his shifting into
high gear for re-election.
Never mind all that noble talk about the deficit and jobs. All
that matters to him now is to get re-elected, so he is switching
his direction to pander to the Tancredo anti-immigrant core in the
6th District. And let’s not forget his latest non-issue: getting
rid of, or reducing, Congressional pensions.
Can our district get beyond this and deal with the true problems
of our country? Not until we finally shed the Tancredo skin of
bigotry from all his political descendants.
