Out of curiosity is that an intentional 9/11 reference?

Yes. Gov. Walker has taken over the plane and is steering off the advertised route. It's time to take back control and take down his political career. Let's roll.

Since, by his own habit and due to the vagueries of transliteration, the spelling of Gaddafi's name in the "Roman" alphabet is a crapshoot, I propose all media start spelling it Dickbag.

Done. From now on, it's Diqqbhag.

Everyone knows it's spelled Diquebbogq (the second q is silent)

Not only does the Democrat Governor of Montana have the cajones to stand up to his Republican legislature in a very conservative state, he does it with the style, wit, and public-opinion-swaying moxie that other Dems might well take a lesson from.

He went out and had three actual cattle brands manufactured, with the brand "VETO," in calf-size, yearling-size and full critter size - and then went and had a full-on Branding Party to publicly veto 17 frivolous, unconstitutional or just plain bad bills that came to his desk for signature.

If only a tenth of the Democrats in Congress, not to mention our stalwart president, had half the nerve or style of this Western Governor. Sheesh.

Awesome. Wish he'd been gov when we lived there.

He makes me want to move to Montana actually. I hear they have a big sky.

And when Republican governors go out and shoot up a bill they don't like to appeal to their base it is crass showmanship.
