When changing the gear oil in the front differential of a four wheeler, it’s a good idea to use a funnel rather than leave the cap on the bottle until the last second; chances are when you’re trying to squeeze the bottle of gear oil into the correct position, you’ll pop the damn top off and shoot it straight inside said differential. Now I get to tear the whole font end apart to get the stupid thing out. I suppose I won’t be applying for work at Jiffy Lube any time soon.
The good news with Mr. Obama’s latest directives regarding fuel economy and greenhouse emmissions is that at least those who tell us what and how we should live and drive will now have to live by those same standards…inevitable loopholes for the important people notwithstanding.
How dare those Republicans nominate three political scientists from the faculty of Montana’s colleges to the legislative redistricting commission! Who on earth would want an individual as unqualified as a professor on there? Don’t they know that the commission should be chaired by a political hack? Well, after the Supreme Court picks their choice, they just may learn…again.

Three men married women from different states.
The first man married a woman from Michigan. He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day, he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.
The second man married a woman from Missouri. He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. The first day he didn’t see any results, but the next day he saw it was better. By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done and there was a huge dinner on the table.
I married a girl from Montana. I ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, driveway shoveled, laundry washed, and hot meals on the table for every meal. On the first day I didn’t see anything, the second day I didn’t see anything, but, by the third day, some of the swelling had gone down and I could see a little out of my left eye, and my arm was healed enough that I could fix myself a sandwich and do the dishes.
Craig has (hopefully) temporarily hung up his keyboard. I also hope he’s hung that keyboard on a fairly low rung to allow quick access should he need to crack somebody over the head with the thing. I understand his position, even if we’re all the poorer for the result. Life gets in the way of a lot of stuff. All I can really add to Wulfgar’s comments is that mtpolitics is what a righty blog should be. Well done, good and faithful servant.
If I knew how aggravated/annoyed the left side of the Montana ‘Sphere would be with today’s Tea Parties, I might have tried to organize the thing myself. If you have the time, get out there today; the government may not care what you have to say, but one really shouldn’t pass up the opportunity to annoy a liberal.
Update:
If you look closely, I’m the one behind the camera:

It’s a good bet that when parents of kids other than kindergartners voice safety concerns with regard to having kindergartners on your team, the last thing on their mind is the safety of those kindergartners.
Sure, there may be some blowback from providing $8 billion to a nut tree while cutting $1.4 billion from missile defense, but we really should remember that we are graced with the leadership of a man with a brilliant mind, so there must more to it than one may suspect. For example, instead of destroying an incoming ballistic missile with some unproven proven technology, we should now be able to send out the Obama Youth Corpse equipped with high velocity hope and change and the missile would either unconditionally surrender or self destruct. The probability of the latter would, of course, increase exponentially depending upon the longevity and decibel level of the “yes we can” chanting.
