The West is beautiful, and makes a lot of sense (maybe too much)

New Orleans’ political pundit Clancy DuBos is up in Red Lodge, Montana for a two week “Sanity break.” He’s got a great post about all the wonderful things that Red Lodge has to offer. Not much to complain about there, except every once in a while a bear will let himself into your kitchen and clean out the fridge and make a godawful mess. But, he observes “at least it doesn’t punch you in the stomach and steal your cell phone, then go down the street and order up a lap dance.”

Which is why the bears of Montana would never cut it in New Orleans politics.
