You can always count on the Associated Press to push liberal positions. In this case, for example, it does its damnedest to prove that Janet Napolitano is justified in saying it’s those right wing non-Muslim terrorists we need to worry about – even if the evidence of their existence is virtually non-existant.
Let’s travel now to bucolic Kalispell, Montana, land of the Editor’s ancestors, where we apparently find those pesky non-Muslim terrorists water skiing on Flathead Lake:
It also is a cradle for sometimes-violent anti-government activity — a reputation most recently rekindled by the search for David Burgert. The former Kalispell militia leader is accused of opening fire on sheriff’s deputies on a remote logging road in Lolo National Forest.
After a lull following the demise of the Idaho-based neo-Nazi Aryan Nations in 2000, anti-government and white supremacist groups and individuals may be reviving in the Inland Northwest. It’s a mostly white, mostly rural area with few job opportunities and a history of extreme activists.
May be reviving? Translation: We don’t actually know of any problems, but this is the approved narrative and we’re sticking with it.
Experts say the number of radical right groups is growing across the country because of the poor state of the economy, rising immigration and fears that President Barack Obama’s administration has an agenda to curtail individual liberties.
They include so-called patriot groups, which fear one-world government and don’t accept the federal government’s authority. And they like northwest Montana because there is no dominant major city with liberal politics. It also has a deep libertarian streak and live-and-let-live attitude, said Travis McAdam, executive director of the Helena-based Montana Human Rights Network, an anti-hate group.
It has a deep libertarian streak and a live-and-let-live attitude.
Well, there you have it. Everyone knows what a “deep libertarian streak and live-and-left-live attitude” can lead to:
Libertarians.
And you know how dangerous they are.

And this is bad why?
#1, David Burgert was not a leader of of any militia group , the Governor is the leader of the militia, Article 6, section 13, Montana Constitution. As far as some people thinking the Constitution should be up held, every elected official takes an OATH to the Constitution ,even the President. The trouble is most elected officials an bureaucrats say the hell with the Constitution. As far as living in the North West Montana, we have more people working for government then we have in the private sector, by the way only the private sector pat taxes, government employees salaries come from the private sector. I do not know how much longer this will last, because government has destroyed most good paying jobs, like logging , mining, aluminum plant. These jobs created a lot of wealth , to pay government employees. On average government employees make all most twice as much as there counter part in the private sector. Maybe it's about time other Americans start getting mad.
As a black woman, I have always been afraid of these white libertarians that have a live and let life attitude... I mean they are living their lives and allowing me to live my life and they are white AND libertarians!!!!!
Okay so anyway let me walk away from the panic for a moment and say this: Yes there are dangerous people out there with dangerous philosophies of all kinds, colors and creeds... Racists do exist and they can be dangerous. Thankfully we do not live in a country full of them (Thanks be to G-d) nor is this country under daily attack from within (unless you count the (many times illegal) immigrants that bid their time and then hit). These attempt to minimize the enemy's impact is disconcerting and it is definetly not looking out for us. This country isin trouble unless we make some serious changes in goverment. A new President is not enough. Also we need to hold journalism accountable.
So, you're a Black Jew?
So was Sammy Davis Jr. What's your point?
Yeah like what is that about?
... Ha.... what if I am?
Don't worry, Kimmy. When this white Libertarian picks up his guns and goes hunting for people who would destroy this country, I'll make sure not to target you.
I will appreciate that. Just so there are no accidents I will wear my "don't shoot me, shoot the liberal instead" t-shirt.
Are their any for sale?
Not yet. They are just in my imagination LOL
Kimmy, my dear... thank you for a great belly laugh. THOSE are few and far between these days!!
I hear you. I am glad I was able to add some mirth to your day today :-)
HAHAHAHAH! Where can I get one of those T-shirts?
LOL At this point in time nowhere. I always wanted a t-shirt that said that. Perhaps we can coax I hate the Media people to create them.
I would buy one. I may buy 10 and give them to my friends for free. That would make SGT Bensy the standout ^^
If you have some made send pics.
Perhaps another reason people from Montana are fed up is that so much of their state is owned by the federal government, and then you get morons like Liberal Ted Turner to buy up a bunch of property and you get other hollyweird types to move in, just like they have destroyed most of Colorado.
Janet needs to research her history, Montana has always been a state where individual liberties are precious, and they work hard and want to be left alone.
I have realatives there and they can not stand Washington. They hate being forced fed a socialist agenda, being told what they can and can not dow ith their land. A lot of them consider it another range war with Washington and the villian. Can't say I blame them.
"Experts say the number of radical right groups is growing across the country because of the poor state of the economy, rising immigration and fears that President Barack Obama’s administration has an agenda to curtail individual liberties."
Wait, I thought the economy was turning around? And that immigrants only take jobs Americans don't want?
Translation: When someone tries to destroy your country, and you get mad, because you do not agree or wish to comply with those laws, you are a TERRORIST!!!!!!!!!!!
I fished on Flathead Lake a long, long time ago, sometime in the mid 60's, beautiful place. I don't remember seeing any non-muslim terrorist groups back then...this sh*t must be a fairly new phenomenon, you know, since Yo'mama's drop in the polls.
I didn't see any skyscrapers to fly planes into up there, either.
Another thing the left hates is that Montana would be harder to subjugate because they believe in the constitution, plus they understand & exercise their gun rights.
It is my belief that when the revolution starts, the constitutionalists and rebels will first hit the propaganda machine(MSM) and then this type of total bullshit will be gone forever.
The left have been trying to divide this nation for a long time-seems like they are becoming successful-though their side doesn't believe in guns-so it will be a quick and decisive battle when it goes down.
The emperor in chief is a bad, bad man, with designs to destroy our country-naturally there are folks who want to stop that-they aren't terrorists-the constitution calls us militia-and that is the opposite of terrorist. We all want to fight for our country-not against it like the DNC et al!
Let's not stereotype. There are decent Democrats out there. 97-0 proves that. It is the progressive sub-party that I wish to destroy, much like I would like to destroy the RINOs, the spend-thrifty, war-hawks who could care less what wars cost as long as it lines their pockets. There is evil on both sides, certainly the progressive mindset had imbedded it's destructive ideology on the left moreso, but there is always evil in the world; and it is ignorant to believe it doesn't exist in some of our incumbents.
They didn't quite come right out and say it, but they certainly think it: the Tea Party is the biggest terrorist threat in the country.
FACT or FICTION
1. bailed out banks and world banks who forced people out of their homes
2. stole tax money to buy union companies to be union run
2. refuses to secure the border, and arms the mexican drug traffic folks
3. forces regulations through control of federal agencies when legal means through congress doesn't work.
...
where is the sanity here?
It is refreshing to see the the democrat party finally come out and tell us that their real enemies are conservative Americans. I've seen them take the side of our enemies for decades. In fact, during 2001- now it has been hard to know whether a media pushed talking point originated at the DNC and their many communist think tanks or from Al Queda, Hamas, or Iran.
Al Queda, Hamas, DNC, Whatever. You say tomato, I say tomatoe!
