Hahaha!!! I actually had someone send us an email the other day claiming that Obama took an "anti-capitalism stand" over the CEO bonuses. SRSLY?!?!?! People think that capping pay for execs receiving bailout money is anti-capitalism?!?!?! Uhhhh....don't take bailout money and then make as much as you want Mr. Capitalist CEO. Sheesh.....people are ridiculous.

Medicare for All should be our goal

" Under the greatest adversity there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others ." ~Dalai Lama And one of Montana's Methodist Ministers, Joan Uda, wrote an editorial for the Great Falls Tribune this week, asking essentially, What would God think of this? Here's a small excerpt: I'm startled by the frenzied opposition to health care reform. Are these good people Christians? Do they recall that Jesus will judge us not by how well we've kept our earnings for ourselves but by how we have cared for "the least of these"? Matthew 25:31-46. This is a matter of salvation.

Jon, with his gift of "soothing rhetoric" (as Stella calls it) has been canvassing and phone calling voters in Western Montana almost every day for the past month. But this morning, he had a once-in-a-lifetime experience. At her request, Jon drove a 63 year old woman to the courthouse, where she voted (for Obama) for the first time in her life!!! WHY did she want to vote now? Because this time, it was "important".
