GOOD NEWS: Colorado Takes Down TABOR!

One down, more than 20 to go (read about effects of the Taxpayer Bill of Rights or TABOR)...

"Yesterday, Colorado voters streamed to the polls and delivered a devastating blow to anti-government activists like Grover Norquist by passing Referendum C by a margin of 52 - 48!

By suspending the so-called Taxpayers' Bill of Rights (TABOR), Coloradans rolled back the harshest government spending limits in the nation. This vote will help Colorado rebound from economic crisis and reinvest in education, health care, and public safety.

...The message coming out of Colorado is clear: After living for 12 years under TABOR's drastic budget cuts, Coloradans have had enough! Grover Norquist once famously boasted that he hoped to reduce government "to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub." Coloradans have made it clear that they do not want to drown their schools, fire departments, and public health programs."

I'm doin' the happy dance...
