Sentinel: We urge you to vote Yes on 59

Yesterday, the Grand Junction Sentinel endorsed Amendment 59, urging Coloradans to vote for the SAFE plan. Among other statements of support, the wise editors noted that:

Colorado will still have one of the strongest taxpayer protections of any state.

As we get closer and closer to Election Day, you're likely to hear more and more desperate pleas from opponentst of Amending 59, including that it will somehow "gut" TABOR.

We'll call that what it is: a lie.

The truth is that 59 preserves key TABOR measures, so Colorado will still have the strictest limits on government growth and the strongest protections for taxpayers in the country.

If you still don't believe us, then read this. Good bedtime reading.
