You would think at this point, he would just resign, out of utter embarrassment! However, here is some more incentive to rid ourselves of this political parasite.
“Petition to Potentially Recall U.S. Senator Max Baucus, (D) Montana Petition”
There is plenty of internet coverage of Senator Max Baucus giving his girlfriend an unjustified $14,000 raise, so we won’t bore you here. The most incredible and yet entirely predictable thing is the nonchalance of the Democrats. If a Republican were to do this, it is nearly guaranteed there would be a lot more stink about it on MSM. What have we learned? Be careful which party you choose when you decide to have scandals. In general, the Democrats tend to get away with plenty more than the Republicans do.
As we all know, everyone has had their utter concentration on the costly, inefficient and perhaps deadly Health Care Bill (ObamaCare) as of late. The creators of this 2,000 page document will stop at nothing to cram this down the American throat, whether Americans want it or not. Even the Americans who think they want it haven’t read it, and if they did: they either have something themselves to gain from it, or they would vote against it. Even Jon Tester has created a series of emails, pretending that the proposed Health Care would actually help Montanans, using isolated personal stories that are unfortunately void of the hard facts and the larger picture.
But today – the House slid a fast one on us. They knew it too.
While Mr. Rehberg likely identifies himself as a Conservative, Montanans who consider themselves Liberty-oriented, be it anything from Libertarians to “Ron Paul Conservatives” as well as wide-ranging political affiliation descriptions; will be quite disappointed in this news:
He voted for extending the already-liberty-robbing Patriot Act today.
Here is the Voting Results. It is so sad there are only 34 Patriots, and how embarrassing that 23 of those were Democrat! Shame on the Fake Republicans!
Liberty-minded Montana voters have had it up and over and beyond with Washington’s rhetoric of their “protection” of us, when what is practiced is the exact opposite of that. We are tired of having our freedoms stripped away and constant invasions of our privacy. We wonder – is Mr. Rehberg also in favor of the Real ID Act?
True Conservative voters need to take this into consideration at election time, as well as foster new candidate(s) who are about restoring our liberties, according to the US and the Montana Constitution – we cannot settle for less!
On a lighter note (or a darker note, depending on your sense of humor), yet another gem of a post entitled “Please Enslave Me!” from Anti-Tax Activist Larken Rose has been released – ENJOY!
Getting geared up for the Sheriff Richard Mack Event in less than 24 hours, and hope to see many of you there!

NOW – for some NEWS!
For all of you who went to the Tea Parties in Bozeman and in Helena this weekend – GREAT job! Here is a great article in the Helenair.com covering the Helena Event – nice photo of Missoula’s Pauline Dean! WEHEW!
In Hamilton, Mona Docteur and Dan Cox were interviewed in-depth by the usually-liberal Missoula Independent, their October 29, 2009 article entitled, “Questioning Conservatism” was very well done! Congratulations to Celebrating Conservatism!!
Recently in the Ravalli Republic, there were a couple articles of interest. One is essential reading, Dewey Baker’s “Republican Party Losing Its Way” and the other is an adversary to the conservative movement, Mr. Bill LaCroix of the so-called Bitterroot Human Rights Alliance, his piece entitled, “‘Patriot’ Rhetoric Based on Emotion” and frankly demonstrates his ignorance of, amongst other things, the Celebrating Conservatism events. Read the follow-up comments (some of them are GREAT) and of course, feel free to leave one or two yourselves! Today, the voting turnout was rather uneventful, although some may find Mayoral Candidate, Michael Spreadbury’s Hearing interesting.
And NOW for some FUN!! (And it is actually Educational)
Folks in their 40′s now will likely remember the 1970′s “Schoolhouse Rock” series, which were short educational clips that aired between Saturday Morning Cartoon television shows, and educated about Grammar, Multiplication Tables – AND American History. This is how a few of us learned the Preamble of the US Constitution – ENJOY!!
Carter E. Beck, MD is a well-reputed Neurosurgeon practicing in Missoula, Montana. Amongst many other things, he is also the Vice-President of the Montana Neuroscience Institute Foundation. His timely lecture will address the not-so-bright-side of government-provided health care, from a physician’s standpoint, and why it is important for all of us to oppose the proposed health care initiatives considered now in Congress.

Time: 7pm (Free Event)
Location: City Hall Community Center, at the corner of 2nd and Bedford Streets, Hamilton
With only a handful of exceptions, Obamas visit to Montana was attended overwhelmingly by a crowd of faithful progressive statists lapping up every syllable of rhetoric dripped by Mr. Obama. The visit was augmented (ahem) by the bussed in shills of the AFL-CIO which added to the already disturbingly far left leaning crowd. Mr. Obamas entrance included a cloak and dagger style entrance through the back door and an equally stylistic finish as he escaped through said back door whilst the adoring masses remained locked inside the unventilated building as the grand leader made his getaway. What a way to say goodbye to your loyal lackeys. LOL.
