Eric Swalwell is a mere symptom of the disease of government

By Craig Hall on April 21, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Eric Swalwell is a mere symptom of the disease of government

Seriously, because when one really focuses on it, Washington, D.C., isn’t a cesspool because of Eric Swalwell. Eric Swalwell is a major contributor to the cesspool that is Washington, D.C. Let’s use the disease analysis, because after all, Washington, D.C., is a cancer on the body of the United States of America. How Swalwell behaved […]

My letter to local ‘leaders’ on another rigging the system

My letter to local ‘leaders’ on another rigging the system

Told you this could be a series. Well, this won’t exactly be a letter, just a “cc” of my column to those we’ve elected – who appear to understand little to nothing about this antiquated piece of legislation – once I put the finishing touches on this latest masterpiece from the never-nominated, yet best-est in […]

Grand Junction City Council, sometimes doing right feels wrong

By Craig Hall on April 6, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Grand Junction City Council, sometimes doing right feels wrong

What can I say, I’m an equal opportunity commenter. Although many on the left would strongly disagree. But that’s only because they don’t pay attention to or read everything I write. Because the ones who call me upset over something I wrote usually must admit they liked or agreed with something else I wrote. Such […]

It’s like the whole system is rigged. Because it is.

By Craig Hall on March 31, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Yeah, this might turn into a “series.” Mainly because the topic, when it comes to government, is like shooting fish in a barrel. Which I’m sure the government would find a way to tax you on, or partner with the barrel maker or fish supplier or the gun manufacturer – yes, the government would celebrate […]

Random thoughts on another one of those days

By Craig Hall on March 23, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

For me, “one of those days” usually occurs on a Friday morning deadline when I don’t know what to write about. It’s not that I don’t have things to write about, as I always have things to write about. But internally, on days like this, I ask myself if I should write about this or […]

Let the government do it, they’ll screw it up in no time

By The Business Times Staff on March 16, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Frankly, that should be our national catchphrase. Why? You ask. Do you even have to ask? Don’t you have a lifetime of examples? If you don’t, let’s try it from the other end. Name five things government does well, or in the words of the president so many love to hate, does great or bigly? […]

Not yet convinced we don’t elect the best and brightest?

By Craig Hall on March 10, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

I mean, what else does Congress, the Colorado Legislature or our local politicians have to do to convince you? And for those thinking this is all about democrats (hint, it isn’t, it just seems to always apply to them) I’ve got some public vaping, shooting dog stories and sex coverups for you that you seem […]

Yes, I see the irony, but I stand by the premise

By Craig Hall on March 3, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Yes, I see the irony, but I stand by the premise

It’s rare when I have a string of three consecutive columns (this now being the third) that somehow connect. If I recall, I have done what some might consider a short “series” of columns on the same topic. A set comes to mind about how the health-care industry came into being and how the government […]

Just what the doctor ordered, and a little golf with the boys

By Craig Hall on February 24, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

Just what the doctor ordered, and a little golf with the boys

Yeah, this article is about getting away from the world. And a little bit about how no matter how hard we try, the world has a way of pulling us back in or letting us know it’s still a factor even when you think you’ve escaped, but with a twist. Fact is, you just can’t […]

KKCO appears to be playing coy about Koi, and its professionalism

By Craig Hall on February 17, 2026   Craig Hall, From The Publisher, Opinion  

KKCO appears to be playing coy about Koi, and its professionalism

Even though I run a weekly newspaper, I can’t get my head around how “clarifying” this took a week, or how bad reporting can pretty much destroy a livelihood in the same amount of time. How else can one explain what happened to (according to the same KKCO who was destroying their business) “popular restaurant […]
