Out with the Old - In with the New




    The Republicans are coming!  
 The Republicans are coming!

    There is an invasion on everything we Montanans hold dear and they have taken their corrupt intentions straight from the playbook of the Trump Troglodytes.

    Our United States Senate seat, currently held by Steve Daines, is up for re-election this year.  This man is proving that Montana would be far better off even if we had no one in the seat at all.  He is so far removed from representing our great state that he has to ask for directions when he comes home.  His idea of finding what's on our minds is to invite a "carefully chosen handful of folks" to chat with him on a "town hall phone call."  And you won't find any Democrats there, either...they  are as scarce as hens' teeth.

    From the same swamp, Representative Greg "The Media Bodyslammer" Gianforte has two uneventful years in the U.S. House and now thinks he is ready to be our Governor.  Ha!  He has sold his soul to the corrupt and impeached President Trump and his only real claim to fame is his multi-million dollar bank account.  His 2018 election eve body slamming of a news report who asked him in Bozeman, "could you tell us about the GOP health care plan that would replace the ACA," was most telling.  He promptly slammed the poor reporter to the ground!

    Another lost soul slogging around in the Montana GOP swamp is Elsie Arntzen, head of our Office of Public Instruction.   She has been reading the Trumpster Plan Book for some time and, like her national counterpart, Betsy DeVos, hates anything related to Public Education.  They both hate public schools, but love our public's tax money and are constantly looking for ways to slide a big chunk of it over to their precious charter and private schools.

    These are but three big reasons why we Montana Voters  must take up our torches and pitchforks and  enter the fray.  Many more of these "Trump Thinkers" are planning on heading to our next Legislative Session and we need to read our ballots carefully and "cut them off at the pass."

    Accepting the fact that Montana has been a "Red State" for years, it is now time we revisit that mistake.  Our GOP brothers and sisters have become too big for their bloomers.

    Montana isn't going to be Trump Country anymore!

The Trees Kept Voting for the Axe. . .

Opinion by John Watson   "The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for  the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them."   - A Turkish Proverb   This proverb reflects the idea that the perpetrator of harm may forget their actions, but the victim will always remember.  Whatever your political leaning, I have found this proverb interesting. For me, it has always found its way into different aspects of  political thoughts and discussions. During this particularly stressful election where our very basic needs are being challenged, The perpetrator has quite easily convinced a large group his base of accepting him because he will get them everything their hearts desire if they will but elect him. It has nothing to do with what he can do for them - it has only to do what they will do for him! He wants what he wants and he asks them to supply the votes. What they will get in return is neither inferred nor

It's immoral to even let him run for office. . .

  THE RETRIBUTIONIST He is a legend in his own mind He has promised to call out his Flying Monkeys to wreak hell and damnation on the "enemies of the people." They will be driven from the face of the earth.  Who are they?  The news media. Are there others?  Anyone who won't stand with him.  Once again, Trump is ratcheting up his use of the derisive label to attack the news media. Trump tweeted, "The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, "Make America Great Again." "They can't stand the fact that this Administration  has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first two years," he continued, "They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." Orwell "1984" Donald Trump is up to his old, untruthful campaign slogans once again. His attack on America'

Confession of a   Social Climber Before I cash in my chips and curl up my toes, I need to confess to a terrible crime. For more than 86 years I have been a terrible liar about an important moment in of my life. As everyone who knows me is aware, I have always said my home town was Fort Benton. But, I hope everyone will find a way to forgive me for that terrible fib. I admit I was a social climber from birth. I wanted the world to know I was from a large city. When I was born, my parents and and older brother lived in the beautiful town of Virgelle, Montana. We also had a farm across the river from Virgelle and south about five miles on top of the river breaks. We lived there for about three years and then moved back to the farm. So, realistically, my home town is Virgelle. My family lived there  before we lived in Fort Benton.  When I started school, we moved into a home in that beautiful, big, bustling metropolis of Fort Benton, where I was educated. I was so happy and just knew I wou
