The circus with the Republican clowns in the House of Representative just keeps getting uglier and uglier.  It would be funny if it weren’t so serious.  It would be funny if the world wasn’t going up in flames while these Republican idiots are so consumed with petty issues and petty grievances that they are unable… Continue reading Oct 25, 2023

The first two definitions listed by Merriam Webster for democracy are: “1.a. A government by the people – especially rule of the majority”; 2.a. a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections.”  Those… Continue reading Oct 24, 2023

The circus in the House of Representative continues this week but without a ringleader, it is full blown chaos.  I sincerely hope that Matt Gaetz and his seven co-conspirators understand the serious wound they have inflicted upon the United States.  Although, frankly, I don’t think this gang of eight cares.  This is just par for… Continue reading Oct 23, 2023

How did we get here?  The Republican Party nominated Jim Jordan to the position of Speaker of the House.  This is a man who has not passed a single piece of legislation in his 16 years in the House.  This is a man who has been accused of ignoring sexual assaults against his wrestlers when… Continue reading Oct 18, 2023

I am hoping to get back to a regular writing schedule one of these days but lately I’ve been preoccupied with getting the house ready to put on the market.  The photographer will be here in a couple of days and the house needs to be spin and span.  That said, I came across a… Continue reading July 4, 2023

I have been AWOL for a few days.  Things have gotten a bit hectic as I am trying to get my house ready to go on the market in just a few days.  I have had several Letters to the Editor published in the Bozeman Chronicle during the five years I have lived here in… Continue reading July 1, 2023

The Republicans’ effort to regain control of the Senate are well underway and Montana will be playing a pivotal role.  The only Democrat left standing holding a state-wide office in Montana is Senator Jon Tester who is up for re-election in 2024.  He has announced he is running for re-election, but he has a big… Continue reading June 27, 2023
