Are We Descending Into Farce?

by: Matt Singer

Fri Apr 27, 2007 at 10:16:48 AM MDT


Lee Newspapers is reporting that the Republicans may revive HB 2, strip out full-time kindergarten, and pass it, then adjourn sine die.

Based on Sideshow Scott Sales' discussion of the possibility, it certainly seems well within the realm of the possible. In other words, the entire six eight sixty-seven four bill approach was, um, just a giant damn game for no purpose.

I don't know how else to put it, Republican leadership in the House hasn't done a constructive thing all session. Every big decision has been made behind closed doors. Every public pronouncement has been vitriolic and divisive. Every move ill-considered.

The good news is that will only take a swing of a couple thousand votes to massively alter the playing field for next session.

Rumor has it (0.00 / 0)
that Brad Johnson, being the self appointed standard bearer of the Montana GOP is considering stepping in for Mike Lange and take Max on in the Senate race.

Ha (0.00 / 0)
That only goes to show that they don't have anyone. Mike Lange is now a punch line, and the GOP needs to blame someone for 2006. Unofrtunatly that someone is Brad. I really thought to the bottom of my soul that John Mercer was going to take on Brian, but I guess even he isn't that stupid.
