decriminalizing doritos (well, sort of...)

the nation has paid attention to colorado's latest round of elections. and with all the precincts reporting, the results are in.

colorado voters have agreed to suspend the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights (TABOR), the nation's strictest government spending limit, forfeiting their own tax returns to help the state bounce back from a recession. meanwhile, fiscal conservatives across the nation are disappointed as states such as california, kansas, ohio, maine, nevada, oklahoma, and arizona are also considering caps on government spending.

and in other news, denver has become the first city in the nation to make private use of marijuana legal for adults 21 and older. ah, this brings a whole new meaning to the term "mile high city".
