Colorado Senator: Don't for a second, think Obama wants what is best for U.S.

State Sen. David Schultheis (R-CO)

Colorado State Sen. Dave Schultheis (R-Colorado Springs) posted a tweet yesterday that called for a derailing of President Obama's agenda in a rather bold way. The blog Colorado Pols caught the statement from Schultheis's account.

"Don't for a second, think Obama wants what is best for U.S. He is flying the U.S. Plane right into the ground at full speed. Let's Roll," the tweet reads.

"Let's roll" were the final words of Todd Beamer, a passenger aboard United Airlines Flight 93, one of the four flights hijacked on September 11 and the only one to crash before reaching its intended target. The flight was diverted to Washington, D.C. after it was hijacked, but crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers tried to thwart the hijackers.

Terrorist!

Wait, he didn't shout Allahu Akbar, we're safe.

Is this really true by the way?

[Empress of Groovy 373]

I'd say that he exhibited poor word choice.

I'm still dubious as to whether this is real.

Stay Classy, Dave Schultheis

As the Denver Post reports:

Sen. Dave Schultheis says the Colorado Department of Transportation is wasting mucho dinero by running ads in Spanish that urge drivers to buckle up. "All these ads are going to do is provide one more assimilation off-ramp for new arrivals," Schultheis, R-Colorado Springs, said today. "Bilingualism in our buckle-up ads - just like bilingualism in our schools - will only encourage the further balkanization of our culture, reduce the pressure on new immigrants to learn English and make it harder in the long run for immigrants to become Americans."

The department is holding a press conference to announce the TV ad campaign, its first ever Spanish ad campaign, on Tuesday. According to agency spokeswoman Stacey Stegman, 23 percent of all fatal-accident victims last year were Latino...

Schultheis wondered where the accommodation of foreign languages ends.

"Can we expect a new round of PSAs from CDOT later on this year in Vietnamese, Mandarin Chinese or some other foreign language?" he asked.

Stegman replied, "If in Colorado there were the same large numbers of those populations that were unbuckled, we would do what we could to address those as well.

"Our programs are about saving lives, regardless of the race." [Pols emphasis]

Almost as thoughtful as when his first reaction after hearing about an bad car accident in Greeley was to assume there were illegal immigrants involved--because the victims' surname was "Bustillos." Here you think we've come all this way in the last year, not getting, you know, all overtly racial about stuff anymore, and there's Dave Schultheis proving you wrong.

Its a TWEET! Of course it's true !

It's a dumb statement. Every President does what he feels is best for our country; some are just wrong most of the time (e.g. Bush).
