First, I'll thank Craig for letting me guest post on the venerable MTPolitics.
The 61st Montana Legislature hadn't even convened before the hyperventilating started by some of the regulars over at Left in the West.
They want to make the Government force you to stay married. Even if--say--your spouse used your ...

As much as I like to hammer my sinestra pals, I also like to point out when they get it right.
They have created Montana Election Wiki, which aims to be a clearing house for information about political races in Montana. From the site:

He believes that Montanans are ready for a parliamentary government.
Me, I'm still waiting for so-called non-partisan progressive organizations to endorse the truly progressive candidate.

I just saw that David Crisp has finished his fifth ...

So, I'm enjoying a quiet evening at home when the phone rings.
Now, let me just say that I am really turning into a crank in my old age. I remember the days before Caller ID when you felt obligated to answer the phone if it rang.

Colby Natale has made the shocking -- SHOCKING -- discovery that I host websites, specifically The Hammond Report.
He's absolutely right. I do. And sometimes I help them get up and running. And sometimes I help people out with technical issues.

I know it's like a.) beating a dead horse or b.) pointing out the obvious, but for all the caterwauling and bitching about out of state money, the sinestra is strangely silent when the out of state money comes from their fellow travelers.
A quick perusal of the SEIU's records from ...

If you caught the recent edition of Small Town, Long Streets," you got to listen to Gregg Smith and Jeff Mangan talk about, among other things, openness in government. If you enjoyed their conversation, you also know that they have been doing their own podcasts. Their latest edition ...

Our good friend Carol at Missoulapolis got one of her posts picked up by John Derbyshire at National Review.

Sometimes with this hobby, the damnedest things happen.
A little over 6 months ago, I cobbled together some code to aggregate posts from the Montana Dextra blogs, along with a blogroll utility.
