I am grateful to live in Ravalli County. Its beauty, its people, its culture, and its historical atmosphere overlay a God blessed place that most would call heaven.
I am proud of all who got out to vote in the recent election. We elected great legislators for our state house and senate: Wayne Rusk, Michele Binkley, Dave Bedey, Ron Marshall, and Jason Ellsworth. We have a new congressman for our western district, Ryan Zinke, and re-elected James Rice for the MT. Supreme Court. Now, let’s hold their feet to the fire and demand performance from them. They serve as OUR voice and represent us, and we must demand that they remember that those are the reasons we elected them. Not to serve their own agenda but us, the citizens of Montana and the Bitterroot Valley.
We also now have a chance to put Montana on the map for being state #20 to be a part of the Convention of States. We can fight for ourselves and solve many of the problems plaguing us by using the Constitution as our solution. Article V was put into the Constitution for future generations to use if government gets out of control. All agree that the Biden government and administration is clearly out of control. Biden himself is mentally ill and is a danger to the safety of our country.
Contact your legislator for your area and ask them to support the Convention of States. There are three topics to be discussed at the convention: balance the budget, put term limits on congress, and reduce the power of the federal government. We must make changes to the Constitution to meet our needs as the Founders knew must happen and now is that time.
Think about your role in the upcoming years – are you going to be the sovereign ruler that citizens of states are supposed to be or a slave to the federal government. Think the IRS that has hired 83,000 agents (some armed?) to rob the middle class of their income and money. Think the FBI who invades homes even of former presidents using phony warrants and charges. Think a CDC who demands that all should be vaccinated with a dangerous drug that has killed many young ones who never had health problems before being jabbed.
I prefer liberty and freedom over being quiet, compliant, and subservient to our government. We should all listen to the Founding father, John Adams, who said the following: “…When annual elections are over, then slavery begins,” and Washington who opined, “…The basis of our political system is the right of the people to make and to alter their Constitutions of Government.”
Let’s keep our God blessed land free and fair and stand up, stand tall, and stand for the Convention of States this year. We can make a difference if we only have the will to do so.

Laurie snd Gomez… negative liberals who probably support Biden. That tells me all I need to know about you two. Ugh. And Laurie U2. You took advantage of the peace, no military deaths for the last 18 months while he was in office, no war, low inflation, great stock market if you have a 401(k) or something like that, low, gas prices, lol food prices and you to sit there and open your mouths to criticize Trump? Do you know how ridiculous you really look?
Gomez says
Pew Research September 2020.
“Since Donald Trump took office as president, the image of the United States has suffered across many regions of the globe. As a new 13-nation Pew Research Center survey illustrates, America’s reputation has declined further over the past year among many key allies and partners. In several countries, the share of the public with a favorable view of the U.S. is as low as it has been at any point since the Center began polling on this topic nearly two decades ago.”
Pew Research June 2021.
“The election of Joe Biden as president has led to a dramatic shift in America’s international image. Throughout Donald Trump’s presidency, publics around the world held the United States in low regard, with most opposed to his foreign policies. This was especially true among key American allies and partners. Now, a new Pew Research Center survey of 16 publics finds a significant uptick in ratings for the U.S., with strong support for Biden and several of his major policy initiatives.”

Oh Helen, MORE television? Please NO!!!!!!! “Many diagnoses by doctors about Biden”?????? Who, What, Where, When. are the essentials to validate assertions such as you make. Take your “readers” to those answers. Otherwise, your assertions have that familiar ring of “people tell me” and other vague references to “they”, who are always just as vague. That is a strategy made famous in recents political contests (and by a holder of the highest office). Facts matter Helen.
Helen sabin says
John- you make me laugh. Apparently you haven’t read the many diagnoses by doctors about Biden. They all agreed that he is mentally ill, has tremendous problems, and thus is a candidate for impeachment. But if you impeach him then you get Kamala. Which is worse? The entire Biden administration is filled with mentally ill people! I am glad we had good people running for office in the last election here in the valley. The really top-notch ones were elected. What we need to do as voters, is get out and get acquainted with the folks who are running for office. Once they get into office, they become an incumbent and are there until God, or voters take them out. I think even you recognize how bad off Biden is. If you don’t, then you need to watch more TV.
John Grant says
Helen,
Your for certain diagnosis of Joe Biden’s mental acuity lacks only any credentials whatsoever to make such an assertion.
However, perhaps it is not a bad idea that candidates, BEFORE any election submit to mental evaluations by the same medically qualified evaluator or, better yet, a panel of 3 evaluators such that voters, on either side can see the same results.
Just for illustrative purposes, a mental evaluation of BOTH candidates in the last presidential election might have opened some eyes as to claims of “genius” and or “stability”.
Helen sabin says
John, there is absolutely nothing wrong with Trump, except that he is a strong individual. He did tremendous things for the country. One is inflation and even you should see that. Second is respect around the world for our country. I subscribe to many papers around the world and see that the articles and cartoons of Biden, and how feckless and mentally ill he is are quite telling. Trump had the respect, or perhaps fear that most rulers in the world should have of the United States president. But you notice that Russia, China, and others waited until Trump was out of office to begin their bellicose actions. If you don’t, then you have a biased opinion, based on no facts at all or evidence she refused to see.
Gomez says
“There is absolutely nothing wrong with Trump, except that he is a strong individual.”
Lol, you are incredibly poor judge of character. In addition to being a pathological liar and mentally unstable narcissist, Trump is a con man, a pussy grabber (his own words) and is dumb as a box of hammers. But hey, if he isn’t in jail you can vote for him again in 2024 and we can all watch the loser lose again.
Laurie says
BOOM. Thank you Gomez. Helen is really out there on this one as so many other topics. I hope she gets the help she needs.
Gomez says
Laurie. Thanks. The lack of self awareness of some of these people is truly jaw-dropping.
Hsabin says
Gomez.. you sound like a broken record. Did you take advantage of the tax cuts from Trump? Did you take advantage of the low gas prices, lower, inflation, great stock market, peace and lack of fear of war, and a nuclear attack by our enemies? Yeah you did. So therefore Gomez you really need to SU please because you sound ridiculous
Or rather a hypocrite. The pot calling the kettle black is your syndrome.
Gomez says
No amount of treasure is worth losing our humanity and decency over.
Without doubt, Trump will go down as one of worst presidents in US history. Vain, insecure, mentally unstable, vengeful and above all else, a world class ignoramus. That anyone is gullible enough to believe anything that two bit phony says anymore is unbelievable.
And next up for him? Handcuffs. 🙂
