Another piece of 'electoral communication' (the card stock is too tough for 'toilet paper') arrived at my door today, complete with a new set of lies from Comcast and their buddies at the Colorado Cable pressure group. (Remember - Look Before We Leap is so far ENTIRELY funded by the telecom industry.)
They already lied about Mayor Baum's 'support' for their cause.
The lies this time? That 2A gives the city "the green light to pour as much of your tax dollars as it needs into a highly speculative venture."
Blatant lies. Deliberate and unequivocal lies.
Question 2A begins "Without raising taxes..." which makes it pretty clear that there will be no tax dollars raised to support the initiative. Since the City only ran a $25,000 surplus last year, the claims that we would be pouring tax dollars into this measure are just false. If we can't raise taxes, and we don't have a surplus, then the only unlimited budget around here seems to belong to Comcast's PR Agency.
Do you believe Comcast's lies and its $1/4 million budget?
And Comcast - if you're reading this, next time send your junk mail on something a little softer.
