What Leadership

<blockquote>Mercer took strong exception to Schweitzer's unswerving position that the school funding problem is an issue to be solved by the Legislature, not by the governor.<br />n<br />n"That's the opposite of leadership," Mercer told reporters. "That's abrogation.<br />n<br />n"Passing the buck to the Legislature will not bring about a comprehensive solution for the state of Montana."</blockquote><br />n<br />n<a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&amp;display=rednews/2005/11/18/build/state/65-gov-schoolfunding.inc">Ducking the issue</a> doesn't mean you won't get covered by shit, some is still going to splash on you Mr. Governor. Leadership is stepping up to the bat and taking a swing, not avoiding it. You can take your <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&amp;display=rednews/2005/11/18/build/state/45-disater-readiness.inc">dog and pony show</a> all over the state and it won't matter on this issue. Step up to the bat, do your job Schweitzer, help the state out or avoid it and show your true colors.<br />n<br />n<b>Hard times don't create heroes.
