Montana Republican Party is Knee-Deep in Corruption

Sometimes you just have to accept the fact that Montana's Republican Politics will be ugly as sin and twice as corrupt.  Take, for example, their fight to get two Green Party Candidates on the November Ballot.

 The first thing you will need to know is the Green Party did not ask to include any candidates.  Interesting, isn't it?  But, the next thing you will need to know is a show stopper:  The Montana Republican Party arranged for the ballot appearance of the Green Party Candidates.  Even more interesting, isn't it?

 But wait, there's more.

 District Court Judge James Reynold removed the Green Party from the ballot, citing missteps by the Republican Secretary of State. Stapleton then filed an appeal with the Montana Supreme Court against Judge Reynold's motion.  The clock is now ticking on both challenges, as the ballot for the Nov. 3 general election must be certified by August 20th.

 As the Helena Independent Record writes, "If Secretary Stapleton is prevented from placing on the general election ballot the names of Green Party candidates duly nominated by the voters, the Green Party ballots cast by the candidates and approximately 800 other Montana voters during the Montana Primary Election will become nullities and these voters will become disenfranchised," the lawsuit filed by Bozeman Lawyer Matthew Monforton reads."
I would love to inspect those 800 Montana Voters and see which political party they voted for in the last presidential election.  I'm betting my next month's social security check that most of them voted for Donald J. Trump.  Also, I would think that when Montana Republicans vote on the Green Party ballot, disenfranchisement would have already taken place.

 The moral to this sick and tainted story is this:  The corrupt Montana Republican Party stole the Green Party Candidates to use for their own corrupt purposes to pull votes away from several prime races of Democrat Candidates.  When the judge found these two candidates' entry into the election was fraudulent, he removed them.  The Republican Secretary of State is now, with the help of other state Republicans, taking it all the way to the State Supreme Court to get them back on the ballot.

 "Oh what tangled webs they weave, when first they practice to deceive."

 It has long been said that the only way a Republican can win an election in this country anymore is by cheating, lying, and/or ugly corruption.

 Montana Republicans are certainly no exception.

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

  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
