Sometimes, I read blog posts and they just confuse me.  They make an argument or a claim and then use it to support a completely unrelated conclusion.

Montana Peaks & Politics is ticked at President Bush for vetoing the Farm Bill.  Makes sense.  So am I.  So are a myriad of other Montanans.  But MPP doesn’t stop there, he decides to take this argument into the stratosphere of poor partisan logic.

President Bush vetoed the Farm Bill.  President Bush is a Republican.  Denny Rehberg is a Republican.  We must get rid of Denny Rehberg.

What?  Forget the fact that Rehberg voted in support of the Farm Bill.  Forget the fact that he voted to override the President’s veto.

Nope, he’s a Republican and the President is a Republican so he must be punished for the President’s stupid decision to veto the Farm Bill.  Yeah, that makes sense.
