Nah, that requires sexually assaulting women.

Red states all seem to be competing for which one is the biggest cesspool in the country. And they keep one-upping each other.

Thanks for playing.

It was easy, I read that article. You should call them immediately and claim your moral upper hand while pointing out their error.

And it's like...I'm not even shocked that these people are basking in it, not even a little. Literally just kind of laughing. Sick place you are, Montana. You'll get the future you deserve .

EDIT: A Berniecrat lost this race by a single-digit margin. Maybe there's still a smidge of hope for Montana...but meanwhile, it still sucks.

The same "Beriniecrat" who lost Hillary/blue precincts? The same "Berniecrat" who couldn't get blue Missoula out for him in force despite the early voting advantage Dems have? Don't try to make this failure into a moral win.

GG raised over 100K after the incident. Maybe there are some based Americans in this country with pride. Or maybe people are getting fed up with the liberal BS.

And you people thrashing on MT for being "red" realize the state elected a Dem governor AND senator, correct?

Keep in mind, 70% of the vote was early voting, so this still could change. But it looks like Montana has made their choice and if that is their decision then they will have to live with it, despite perceptions from around the country. However, as I have many relatives from Montana, my sense is they couldn't care less!

Hopefully they will care when their medical coverage disappears or increases by a thousand percent. Maybe they'll notice when their Medicaid is taken away or their Social Security pensions disappear. They might even notice if the GOP aggravates enough of our allies into leaving us all alone on the world stage.

People from Montana need to do what the rest of the country is doing - waking up to the narcissism in the GOP.

I'll take eyewitness accounts over a prepared press release by a political hack any day. Mmmkay?

Love it how much a warm reception a charge of assault is to a political candidate.

Perhaps the good people of Montana won't mind helping Gianforte pay his legal bills for fighting the assault charge against him. You know, putting money where the oral orifice is?

[quote=MTSilvertip;48289289]At least he didn't go driving drunk, run off a bridge and leave his girlfriend to die while he enjoyed a long happy political career. (Teddy Kennedy)
Or be accused of multiple sexual assaults, impeached for perjury, and still considered a great president. (Bill Clinton)
At least he didn't stand aside and let 4 brave men and an ambassador die at the hands of a street gang, and then get nominated for president. (Hillary Clinton).


The only president ever to be kicked out of office was a republican, Richard M. Nixon.

The list of transgressions, sex scandals and indictments against GOP representatives in both houses is as long as your arm.

There's a new kid in town, 45. We need to look to our futures during this time he has been inflicted on us, not the past where we can't change what has already happened.

Are all Montana residents as backward thinking as this?

Sure, it was 2010, but it proves that there is nothing new under the sun.
It also proves that democrats aren't as squeaky-clean as they would like us to believe.

The congressman who perpetrated this attack on a student lost the subsequent election and has been out of politics ever since.

The point being made is that he (a democrat) DID it! What he did afterwards is irrelevant.
