A Republican state lawmaker in Colorado got fired up on Thursday after he was confronted about false allegations he made against his colleagues.

Scott Bottoms, a Republican running for Colorado Governor, said during a campaign stop last weekend that there is a pedophile ring being run out of the Colorado state capitol and the governor's office, a claim that he made without evidence. He also said he will reveal the names of those participating in the ring if Coloradans elect him Governor.

When local journalist Kyle Clark of 9News sought clarification from Bottoms about his comments, the lawmaker wouldn't agree to an interview. So Clark showed up at his workplace, the state capitol, and asked him point-blank.

1. Bottoms is channeling the infamous Sen. Joe McCarthy

2. I Suspect the Fecal-colored President with Stained Didies Gets Them "Thinking" (As Well As They Can)

That similar stuff coming out of their mouths will help them succeed without hardly trying as well.

4. They just can't stop lying

"If you're serious about protecting children, why not present your evidence to local law enforcement?" Clark asked.

Bottoms denied making the statements. Clark played video clips from the campaign event and a separate radio interview where Bottoms repeated the claims about a pedophile ring.
