- Bio
- Jim Pirtle was raised in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado. After high school he joined the Army and was stationed at Fort Ord, California. Returning home he then completed college, in Denver.
Enjoying all that Colorado has to offer, in 1977, Jim relocated to Colorado Springs, which he continues to call home. It was here, he worked for Ampex and Northrop Grumman in various engineering and management positions. Eventually in 1993, Jim started a video consulting company, based in Colorado Springs, which he still owns and operates.
In addition, Jim is an FAA commercial pilot and flight instructor. He also is a member of the NRA and a Certified Pistol and Reloading Instructor, and a Range Safety Officer.
Jim is married and had the honor of raising his daughter and son here in Colorado Springs. His daughter currently attends college at UCCS. Unfortunately his son, Sgt. James D. Pirtle, was killed in enemy action in Afghanistan, on May 1st, 2009.
Sgt. Pirtle was proud to serve his country, receiving the Combat Action Badge, Purple Heart, and Bronze Star. Being buried in his hometown, Colorado Springs, was his last wish. Engraved on the National Security Agency’s National Cryptologic Memorial, at Fort Meade, Maryland, is Sgt. Pirtle’s name.
In honor of Jim’s son's ultimate sacrifice, and the sacrifices that all soldiers and soldiers’ families have given to our country, Jim is dedicating his life to public service. Jim understands the real cost of decisions made in Washington, not just in lives, but in business and freedom.

If you haven't heard, My congressman, Doug Lamborn, was doing a radio interview in Denver and referenced Pres. Obama to a TAR BABY. Things are getting far out of hand. Republicans are "terrorist", Democratic s are "SPINELESS". Our debt deal debate is like watching WORLD WRESTLING.
It's time for change.

If I were building a house, and I knew the building inspector would not approve how it was being built, I would stop and work with the building inspector to build it the way he wanted.
Continuing to build in the way I wanted would be a waste of time and energy.
When Congress and Mr. Boehner (Debt Man) continues to build a budget knowing it will not…

There was a fence between houses that was in need of repair. The two owners of the houses got together to discuss how they would repair the fence.
They knew the cost of repairing the fence was $10,000.00. Neither owner could afford the repair cost so they stated discussing how they could afford the costs.
Neighbor 1; "well, I think WE could afford it if YOU sold your sports cars" Shocked and stunned, neighbor 2 responded;
