late night humor: that’s what we need! a veto brand!
Gotta love this:
It appears that Brian Schweitzer, Democratic governor of Montana has a bit of a flamboyant way of vetoing certain bills:
In one of the most spectacular pieces of political theater in the Democrat’s six years in office, Schweitzer applied red-hot branding irons to wooden plaques representing bills ranging from elimination of same day voter registration to a bill that would allow new open pit gold and silver mining using cyanide leach process.
“These bills are either frivolous, unconstitutional or in direct contradiction to the expressed will of the people of Montana,” Schweitzer said to a cheering crowd and a throng of reporters and television cameras.
