And the quote of the day goes to…

The Missoula Independent!

Election tampering makes Baby Thomas Jefferson cry, and, to steal a line from Schweitzer’s speech, makes the American public as nervous as pregnant nuns.

Haha!!  Baby Thomas Jefferson!  Comedy gold (see, Governor Schweitzer, this is how you tell a joke).

Read the whole think so you don’t miss this astute observation - one that Roy Brown has been making for almost as long as I have.

All the same, we feel the AG’s office should probably take some time to look into this. Doing otherwise, in an election year, only fuels the possibility of furthering this statewide embarrassment. A joke’s a joke, but the Diebold scandal remains too fresh a memory to muse on such a direct threat to the democratic process.

A joke is a joke. The complain was referred to the US Attorney’s office too. Would you like to ask Mercer to resign too?

Someone should have asked Mercer to resign a long time ago. Oh wait… Lots of people have!

The issue isn’t that he told a joke Jenny, it’s what he was joking about. Is that too nuanced for you to grasp?
