Are the Left in Montana truly Gullible ?

It's a question I keep asking myself.

And I'm leaning towards 'Yes' - and I'll give you a few examples -

First example - Senator Baucus.

Compared to Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid, Senator Baucus is conservative.

Yet, check out this post over at LITW - they seem surprised:

I need to clue them in a little:

(1) Max is in no danger of having a primary opponent. He couldn't care less how much you bluster.

(2) Max's campaigns have been funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars by the medical, and pharmaceutical industries. Do you think he's going to turn his back on them, after all these years?

Second example: Senator Tester

He made lots of promises when he was campaigning, from "Quite frankly, I don't support earmarks, period" to voting to end the war in Iraq.

And as I expected, he has done nothing for the far-left wing of the Democrats, even though they are the voters that made up his base. He votes however Harry Reid tells him to vote, and didn't even have the guts to have a 'Town Hall' meeting on health care - probably in fear for his life.

And yet the Democrats still think he represents them. Keep Hoping.

Third Example: President Obama

The 'Great Leader' came to Montana what, 5 times? And he still lost. People in Montana think he's just too liberal for them. Yet, the liberals keep imagining overwhelming public support for him and all that he does. He's not that popular here. His 'Obamacare isn't popular. Here's an example:

If you click the link, you see, from one of the best pollsters in America, that Americans hate the plans they've seen so far. Here is a claim from LITW that I lifted just now:

"74% of Americans support a public option.

43% committee voted for Schumer public option amendment.

35% of committee voted for Rockafeller public option amendment.

If only you could add the support together, then you might get something

approaching the overwhelming public support."

And I truly think they believe it.

So what do you think? Easily Fooled? Gullible? Special? What would you call the libs in Montana?

Good Morning Montana !

It's not morning, it's Tuesday nite, but it's something I like to

start out with sometimes.

I haven't written on my own blog for almost a year, and it seems like it's time to come back.

The blogosphere in Montana is kind of quiet.

There are good reads, like Electric City Weblog, Montana Politics,

etc, but overall it's still quiet.

David Crisp is still over at Billings Blog, but he appears to be not too

interested in blogging, and I don't blame him. After all, there's no

money in it, and in this era of 'Hope & Change' we all need whatever

income we can get our hands on.

I still miss City Lights, and who knows, maybe Ed will come out of his self-imposed exile from the blogosphere one day.

The liberals are still over at Left in the West, spewing their idiocy, and I stop over there almost daily to get a chuckle, and to correct them, which they truly hate.

**The Rules**

(1) Anybody can post. Either anonymously, or hopefully put their name up. But I believe in anonymous posters, so that somebody can express their opinion without irritating spouses, clients, bosses, neighbors, etc.

(2) Keep it civilized, and no hijacking names and pictures of other bloggers - remember that crazy looking pig picture who claimed to be Rob Kailey? Or the guy who kept hijacking Ed Kemmick?

Let's not start down that path.

(3) On this blog I am the Generator of Diversity - GOD - and I'll delete anything I find too offensive, or change the rules at any time.

(4) Have fun. Bring forth ideas.
