Montana Republicans - You've Done It Again


Governor-Elect Gianforte has pulled on his Trump Trousers and is showing us what he's really made of.  And folks, it ain't gonna' be pretty.

He has added a name to his team that will be tasked to find a new leader for the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife & Parks.  And that person will undoubtedly signal a leader who will send shivers down the spines of every Montanan who cherishes our public lands and wildlife.

Let me begin his resume with this:  Montana State Representative Kerry White is a personal friend of Gianforte. That will tell you a bunch.  He has been long rumored to become a part of Gianforte's administration and has spent the past few days on Facebook calling for "Democrats to be hanged over the 2020 election."  He has called Vice President Harris a "hoe" and has also been ranting deep state conspiracies."
This man's addition to the team is especially threatening to all who value the "last best place - Montana."  "The total team includes Republicans who are foes to public lands, and value wealthy and politically connected landowners over everyday Montanans," said Montana Conservation Voters Director Jake Brown."

We can probably expect to see Gianforte's big dream come to fruition as public lands are sold off to his "wealthy and politically connected" friends.    

Gianforte believes he has a mandate to ravage our beautiful state. Perhaps he gained the necessary votes to believe he has that approval, but he will find that most of those voters "knew not what he is capable of doing."  Mistakes are made, like the president who his political party gave to the nation four years ago. 

This new governor will be completely wrong for Montana, and worst of all he has anger management issues.  And that, my friends, is a terrible combination for anyone - especially as our Governor!

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
