The tribune wrote an opinion this week grading Weld County Legislators.

Jim Riesberg - Democrat - gets an A+ for creating the most new laws. Woo Hoo, at least he’s doing something (I guess) - but quantity doesn’t equal quality.

Dale Hall and Dave Owen both get Bs. Apparently they weren’t as busy as Riesberg

Finally Kevin Lundberg gets s a B- for supporting Home Schoolers, Military Personell and Medicaid reform.

The best part of the article is the comments on upcoming bills.

The writer gives the Colorado Domestic Partnership Benefits and Responsibilities Act a B because

While some advocates for gay rights hoped for a more wide-ranging bill or marriage legislation, this bill is still an important step in giving gay and lesbian couples the domestic rights.

The Tribune must be an advocate for gay rights.

The Smoking Ban got an A+.

Legislatuire got an F for not passing two bills to increase the ability for victims of childhood sexual assault to take their assailants to court. Victims currently have until they are 28 to report the crime and an additional six years to sue in civil court. Why do we need to extend this?

Finally, the Trib gave our elected officials an F for not passing a primary seat belt law. Interesting that a few years ago the Greeley voters reversed the same law locally. Seems that the Tribune’s opinion writers might want to get a little more in touch with their readership.
