What's the dirt?

So what's up with Dirt Between Light Bulbs? I've been plotting a column on the prospects for a good blogging war in the next political campaign, and figured these guys for a prominent role. But when I go there these days, the latest thing I see is an April 11 entry. How can I shape the news to fit my preexisting biases, complete with mandatory "he said, she said" dueling quotes, if you fellows won't cooperate?

Political blogging in Montana can't live by Matt Singer alone. And Mtpolitics.net is threatening (perhaps idly) to cut back on posting. Dave Budge may have to become my go-to guy for conservative posts.

Well, I think that the Dirt Between Burns Ears folks didn't LIKE the fact that they were found out! And that's too bad, cause it was kinda fun postin' on their site! But the stealth RePubies will be back. They had some success apparently in South Dakota. But here in Montana, we're on to them. And as long as the don't start limiting posters, we'll EAT THEIR FREAKIN' LUNCH for them! For you see, in a free for all, the RePubies cannot hold their own! Just like the Fat Boy Blimpaugh, they gotta be able to screen their calls, or they take their ball and go home! And Montana has some particularly feisty bloggers willing to take them on! We ain't ALL red round these parts! Some of us are redmeat blue! We eat reds for breakfast! (not in the gannon/guckert/hotmilitarystud.com/sleepover in the White House sense though, mind you!)

Larry Kralj, Environmental Rangers!
