The Election – November 7, 2023

You surprised me, Park County. It was almost perfect. First, the imperfect Fire District Consolidation I supported the consolidation effort by three fire districts: Inter-Canyon, North Fork, and Elk Creek. The consolidation questions were on the ballot in all the districts. For the consolidation to succeed, all three district ballot measures had to pass. I … Continue reading The Election – November 7, 2023

Houlihan’s Pretty Picture

Chats with the Lord, demon possession, Dominionism, Chrisitan Nationalism This is not Houlihan's picture. This is a picture of Amy Mitchell. Reflective of her self-perception? Claire Houlihan, a Douglas County homeschooler and artist, presented a pretty picture to the Park County Board of Commissioners on August 22, 2023. But the saga doesn't begin there. We … Continue reading Houlihan’s Pretty Picture

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my opinion we don't have an income problem, we have a spending problem." If anyone doubts Wissel actually said this, the video provides the evidence thrice, then slowed down then speeded … Continue reading Wissel: “We don’t have an income problem…”

Something Wissel this way comes

Double, double, toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. - William Shakespeare - "Macbeth" I suppose many, if not most, of the folks who buy Commissioner Dave Wissel’s unmistakable efforts to discredit the assessor’s conduct of her elected office are those you’d expect to do so. Namely the so-called Head Accountable of the South … Continue reading Something Wissel this way comes

Wissel in dizzy land

Dave Wissel District 3 Commissioner Dave Wissel attended the May 23, 2023, BOCC Work Session via Zoom. Although he’s on record hating Zoom, he said he’d had “…a trip to dizzy land the last couple of days.” He’d been experiencing vertigo for a few days and was “…in a circular motion all the time right … Continue reading Wissel in dizzy land

Tactical Civics Redux

Jesus Christ's Remnants and their plans for We the People I posted about Tactical Civics (TC) not long ago. To summarize that post, Tactical Civics is a specious recounting of American history. It teaches that our country is corrupt and communist and has been that way since the unholy triumvirate of  Karl Marx, Abraham Lincoln, … Continue reading Tactical Civics Redux

“Tactical Civics” in Park County

These “violations” were alleged to have occurred … Continue reading “Tactical Civics” in Park County

A Wissel affair

The Upper South Platte Water Conservancy District and GEGE Development Consulting Last month I posted on the curiously autonomous, seldom scrutinized operations of water conservancy districts in Park County, entities that take a piece of the property tax pie. I titled that post "What's up with the water." Prominently featured in that post was Dave … Continue reading A Wissel affair
