Lamborn Doesn’t Want You to Call Today to End MTR

Congressman Doug Lamborn (middle) (R-CO) stares at Maria Gunnoe (hair only visible in foreground, left) during another hearing his committee hosted on Sept. 26, 2011 in Charleston, W.Va. More info here: https://ohvec.org/newsletters/woc_2011_12/. Photo by Vivian Stockman.

“I accept the judgment of professional staff,” Lamborn said Tuesday. “If it’s inappropriate, I don’t think I should be viewing it. The fewer people who viewed it, the better.”

That from Rep. Lamborn in a Denver Post article this morning titled  “Rep. Lamborn panel blocks bath photo over child-porn concerns.

He also said, “If it’s inappropriate, I don’t think I should be viewing it. The fewer people who viewed it, the better.”

Guess that backfired.

The Colorado Springs Gazette ran a story, too, “Lamborn panel axes photo of child bathing in polluted water,” and it’s among the paper’s “most viewed” stories so far today.

Remember, today is the National End Mountaintop Removal Call-In Day.  Please make the call.

If you tweet, please follow us @OVEC_WV and re-tweet about the call-in day.
