Ochenski on Hill's returns to Montana politics

( - promoted by Rob Kailey)

In today's Missoula Independent, George Ochenski takes a look forward - and back - to see just what former Congressman Rick Hill's run for governor might mean for Montana.

"[Hill] says he's running for governor because he 'has a vision for Montana and its future.' But for those who remember the various outcomes of the 16 years when Republicans dominated Montana's political arena, his vision seems more like a throwback to the politics and policies of the past than new ways to deal with the many problems facing the state."

"During his campaign announcement, Hill ticked off a list of his priorities should he win the gubernatorial bid. First, and no surprise, is 'taking down the barriers to good-paying jobs.' While that sounds reasonable in Republican-speak, what it means in reality is exactly what we experienced during the Racicot years. What Hill calls 'barriers' are actually Montana's environmental protection laws and constitutional guarantee of a 'clean and healthful environment.'"

Regarding Rick Hill's vision... (0.00 / 0)
Ricky has a vision, and I've tried to see it. Really, I have.  I've tried to see things from Ricky's point of view, but I just can't seem to get my head that far up my ass!
