1. good

n/t

[sandnsea]

2. Just another day in Montana

Somebody's always wanting to secede for one thing or other. One of the things I love about Montana, actually.

[Spinzonner]

3. Montana Who ?

[Doctor_J]

12. ashley montana?

[hatrack]

19. Montana Wildhack?

Geez, now I'm really showing my age.

[Marvelous_Smarty]

5. I Find...

staements like silly unless they actually plan to follow through. I could say that I would sell all of my worldy posessions and leave if Bush won, but I would not really do it, so why even say it.

Several celebs said they would depart if Bush became president and they didn't. Now they get hammered with it. Ultimatums only matter if you mean it.

[sandnsea]

6. Interesting

You bring up celebrities, another right wing TP. Just an observation.

[Marvelous_Smarty]

10. If I said my cousin

J. J. has said the same thing (she did, you know), it would not have the same impact would it?

I am not flaming the celebs are even naming them, all I am saying is, coming out with such a statement then not following through is never a good thing. Costs credibility in the long.

My cousin J.J. is saying she REALLY is going to do it THIS time. See what I mean?

[sandnsea]

11. bla bla bla

Float your right wing talking points to somebody else. Not interested.

[Joe Fields]

15. Why even respond if you are not interested?

[Marvelous_Smarty]

23. Who said I was not interested?

All I am saying is if someone is going to make a public statement, they should stand behind their words.

[thebigidea]

25. Well, lets start with the politicians first.

We can get to the actors when they start bombing countries.

[Marvelous_Smarty]

27. "Read My Lips!"

That was the best example in a long time of a President's feet being held to the fire.

[thebigidea]

30. like father, like son. Their own words will bury them.

In the case of George the Lesser, we only have about 320972032 quotes to choose from.

[thebigidea]

21. Your cousin J.J. isn't obsessed over by millions of people

Your hypothetical cousin isn't talked about incessantly on hundreds of channels, newspapers, and magazines.

Your cousin J.J. isn't on the teevee.

Because of this, only a handful of people care what your cousin J.J. thinks.

Surprisingly, quite a few people seem to care about what people on the teevee think.... they even buy products and do their hair based on what people on the tv think!

[Marvelous_Smarty]

24. J.J.

Is obsessed over by J.J. and believe me, to her that is all that matters.

[thebigidea]

16. who hammers them? Joe Scarborough? Bill O'Reilly?

[Marvelous_Smarty]

17. They get hammered on other boards.

Alec Baldwin is usually the one who gets it the worst. I've heard Hannity bring both Baldwin and Sean Penn up.

[thebigidea]

18. Oh, Sean Hannity. Oh, I see. Well, we better start worrying!

And which boards would those be?

[Marvelous_Smarty]

20. Dude,

There are 1000s of boards out there. For sure, Alec Baldwin has been hammered on the open forums of motorcycle boards I frequent. www.cycleforums.com or www.sportbike.net or www.sportbikes.com I have stayed out mostly political boards until about a month ago but if sportbike riders are bring this up, it has to have been brought up on boards dealing with politics.

[thebigidea]

22. I yearn for the days when the glorious sport of sportbiking...

... was not tainted with partisanship and political posturing. Is nothing sacred these days?

[Marvelous_Smarty]

26. The political posts

on www.cycleforums.com get particularly nasty.

[thebigidea]

31. I'm particularly scarred by the bitterness on the badminton boards

I weep for the death of manners... ENNUI!

[Marvelous_Smarty]

33. The...

ACME Pnuematic Penis Enlarger board is rife with political division also. Nothing, I tell you, Not one fucking thing is sacred anymore!
I am sorry I ever bought that thing!

[thebigidea]

34. I always suspected that...

... if we got a hold of the membership list of your Penis Enlarger board, you'd come up with a list of Hummer owners.

Science teaches us there is a connection.

ARNOLD: "Nein! Der is no such thing!"

[Marvelous_Smarty]

35. Ha! Ha! Ha!

Every Hummer comes with literature for the ACME Pnuematic Penis Enlarger and a discount coupon!

[thebigidea]

36. You get twice as many coupons when you advocate invading countries

[rumguy]

14. Where do you live in Montana?

Isn't sandnsea an odd name for someone in Montana?

[sandnsea]

28. Lived there for 15 years

Then I got cold and moved back to Oregon, on the coast. Okay with you?

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. Welcome to DU. If * gets back in, I will beg Canada to let Maine join up.

[hyphenate]

7. I have enough relatives in Canada

to take me in should * be re-selected.

[DieboldMustDie]

8. Wasn't that tried back in 1861?

Anyway, I don't get it. Montana is strongly pro-Bush. Why would they want to succeed if he's "re"elected? :shrug:

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

13. Didn't Montana twice vote for Clinton?

I've actually met some rather progressive thinkers in Montana. Mind you they were in the cities of Missoula and Bozeman.

[ibegurpard]

32. Went to Clinton in 1992

Though that was mostly attributable to Ross Perot getting a nice chunk of the vote. Still it's the least conservative of all the surrounding states.

[demgurl]

9. My Mom lives in Canada.....

and I have truly wondered whether I would go back if Bu$h is re-elected.

[VoteDemocratic2004]

29. Re-Elected?

That's a stretch isn't it?

[CityZen-X]

37. I'm Moving To Montana Soon!

Going to be a dental floss tycoon!
Mighty Montana rocks!! Now if only we can follow here in Caliphonia. But no need for you see Commander Bu$h*t is going down, down, down, down, down!!!!

[Hubert Flottz]

38. The word is, reselected!

Al Gore won!

[guitar man]

39. oh yea!

might be movin' to montana soon
Just to raise me up a crop of
Dental floss

Raisin' it up
Waxen it down
In a little white box
I can sell uptown

By myself i wouldn't
Have no boss,
But i'd be raisin' my lonely
Dental floss

Raisin' my lonely
Dental floss

Well i just might grow me some bees
But i'd leave the sweet stuff
For somebody else...but then, on the other hand i'd

Keep the wax
N' melt it down
Pluck some floss
N' swish it aroun'

I'd have me a crop
An' it'd be on top (that's why i'm movin' to montana)

Movin' to montana soon
Gonna be a dental floss tycoon (yes i am)
Movin' to montana soon
Gonna be a mennil-toss flykune

I'm pluckin' the ol'
Dennil floss
That's growin' on the prairie
Pluckin' the floss!
I plucked all day an' all nite an' all
Afternoon...

I'm ridin' a small tiny hoss

his name is mighty little)
He's a good hoss
Even though
He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
Any way

I'm pluckin' the ol'
Dennil floss
Even if you think it is a little silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks

I'm gonna find me a horse
Just about this big
An' ride him all along the border line

With a
Pair of heavy-duty
Zircon-encrusted tweezers in my hand
Every other wrangler would say
I was mighty grand

By myself i wouldn't
Have no boss
But i'd be raisin' my lonely
Dental floss

Raisin' my lonely
Dental floss
Raisin' my lonely
Dental floss

Well i might
Ride along the border
With my tweezers gleamin'
In the moon-lighty night

And then i'd
Get a cuppa cawfee
N' give my foot a push...
Just me 'n the pymgy pony
Over the dennil floss bush

N' then i might just
Jumb back on
An' ride
Like a cowboy
Into the dawn to montana

Movin' to montana soon
(yippy-ty-o-ty-ay)
Movin' to montana soon
(yippy-ty-o-ty-ay
