  • Current GOP state leaders have correct vision for Colorado

     “Where my people lack vision, they perish” is a proverb from the Old Testament. How true for a political party as well.

    Recently, I had the opportunity to visit the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in beautiful Simi Valley, Calif. For me, this has been a few years in the planning. As you know, I admire Reagan for all he did for America. But, what did he really do for us? For you ’60s music fans, remember that “Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man; that he didn’t, didn’t already have.”

    The president gave his State of the Union address last week. As a good citizen, I suppose I should’ve watched, but I couldn’t find the time. Actually, I could’ve, but I chose not to.
