    We’ve corrected the story. The driver was transported to Gritman Medical Center, which is in Moscow. Thank you for pointing it out.

    She must have been WORKING too HARD in one of those cheap paying Republican jobs and fell asleep on the way home. Overtime saves money because they are able to hire less people for the same job. Mandatory over time every summer is fun isn’t it teabaggers eh?

    You have absolutely no idea why she was driving at 4 am and fell asleep, and neither do I. But since you decided to make a leap of faith, and connect dots that are of your liking, let me offer this: maybe she was heading to work on a Democrat endorsed, stimulus funded job whereby she was tasked with driving down the road to observe the nocturnal behavior of ground squirrels. Maybe she dozed off thinking about how stupid it was that she was being payed by tax dollars to complete such a meaningless task. Or maybe instead she spent the weekend at a friends house and was just trying to get home first thing this morning to be ready for her week and pushed it just a little too far. Of course, there’s no political tone to that potential so it must not be that one, right?

    The comment section on the spokesman has become nothing more than a broadcast of stupidity.
