Fuck you, Idaho

[Luna]

And in other Idaho stupidity...

Republicans in the Idaho state legislature rushed a bill through in the final days of the legislative session to pay the Idaho Republican Party $100,000 in attorney's fees and legal costs for a primary election lawsuit that it brought against the state and won.  81% of the Republicans in the Legislature are also members of the Idaho Republican Party.  The Republicans additionally made a special effort to ensure that no matter what the outcome of the lawsuit, the cost would be paid by taxpayers.
...
Democratic lawmakers were agog at the Republican Party's conduct. Sen. Elliot Werk, D-Boise said, "I have to point out, we're paying $100,000 for the Republican Party to sue the Republican Legislature, defended by the Republican secretary of state, in order to close primaries in Idaho – I just think this is so bad it's comical."

Part of me WISHES that there'd be some sort of "Conservative White Flight" to these sorts of states, out of the reaches of the places I live in and like to visit on a regular basis.  That way they can fuck up themselves and theirs and leave me and mine alone.

...But that's the sort of thinking THEY employ, so I try to kill that part of me with fire.   Or at least get it drunk enough to forget wtf it was on about in the first place.
