Dec 1, 2008 7:34 pm US/Mountain Troopers Have Yet To Be Paid For DNC Overtime
DENVER (CBS4) ― Colorado state troopers say it's been more than three months since the Democratic National Convention and they have yet to get compensated for their overtime.
The economy is bad and the holiday season is here and the extra money or time off that some troopers counted on has yet to be approved.
There seem to be a lot of factors of work in the hold up, including an extraordinary event, troopers were used from around the state, and asking federal government to foot the bill.
"Are a lot of the troopers wondering, 'Where is the money?" CBS4 investigator Rick Sallinger asked Jeremy Gudday with the Troopers Association.

The check is in the mail.....................
DNC and democrats in general are not prone to paying what they owe, especially during electioneering. You’d have to be stupid to let any democrat hire you to do anything for them. LOL.
Did Colorado go Blue?...............
Better get used to it, suckers.
Maybe they were not told they would be performing these extra hours of service pro bono with their deep sense of patriotism.
Whaddya mean? They’re just redistributing the wealth!
My thoughts, exactly.
Don’t hold your breath troopers.
The democrat party is famed for not paying their debts to common people—”let them eat cake; buy me more jewelry”. Is mrs BO’s middle name Marie? If not it should be.
Now large contributors are another matter.
Have no fear. Zerop is buying all of them $30,000 rings for their help!
I think this falls under the “sacrifices” that Obama is asking the American people to make. The troopers are just being greedy.
ah 1 of the 3 biggest lies.....and the other 2 are right behind considering we are talking about Obama and the Dhimmicrats.
Yup
good luck trying to collect, hey send it to a collection agency hehe
Didn’t Bambi say everyone was going to have to sacrifice? Maybe their overtime was part of Obama’s mandatory national service system.
Hey, too bad! Dontcha know it’s patriotic? It’s time to get in the game — get America out of its rut — get in on the deal!
You asked for it, you got it, O-Bam-A!
Typicall democrats. A friend did Al Gore’s hair before a TV appearance in Austin in 1992. He asked to use her cell phone. This was before everyone had a cell phone and roaming charges applied. She never got reimbursed as promised.
Work for the democrats, or probably any politician for that matter, and you may be working for free.
Ah, yes, the old redistribution of wealth tactic...LOL.
Well, the troopers are blue anyway, since they didn’t get paid.
