DISTRICT 2: Annie Buckaceck

I personally reached out via telephone to explain to Dr. Bukacek that despite my years of appreciation for her work against Planned Butcherhood, the life of the unborn, and other topics, we would not be endorsing her for this position. I would – for the record – love to vote for Dr. Bukacek for a position I feel she is more qualified for.

I live many hundreds of miles from the Flathead Valley. I understand – vaguely – the nastiness, vitriol, anger, and (I hate to write it) hatred between fractions of the conservative alliance for which the Flathead Valley (like last year) was well known. I am well aware because not all our staff writers agree with our owners, most of whom are not Flathead Valley residents.

I’m well aware – more than I should be – of skirmishes (to put it lightly) between Ronalee Skees (and by extension, Derek) and a minority of patriot-minded opponents to their various campaigns. By the way, we love those patriots! These are plainly on the darker sider of ugly within the region.

I’ve done everything possible to encourage both sides to work out differences in light of Christian charity, to no avail (this does not impugn one side or the other). I’ve also reached out to Joe Dooling, which started as a troll (his wife’s RINO voting record disqualifies him from office, in my opinion), who I have found to be – to my surprise – an affable, friendly, funny, good-natured, and intelligent man. And yet, I do not believe he is the best man for the job.

MONTANA DAILY GAZETTE Strongly ENDORSES DEREK SKEES

Skees’ voting record is untarnished and immaculate. He understands the intricacies of state politics. He grasps the issues. His legislative record alone entitles him to our hardy endorsement. And while we risk ostracizing readers with the plague of dumbassery, Skees is not only not a RINO, he is one of the most conservative leaders to hold public office in decades.

From our perch – granted, from afar – it appears that unrelated drama has drawn people into a hatred for the Skees that is unwarranted and stirred up without consideration for what is best for the State of Montana. As much as I love Dr. Bukacek, her running for PSC is like me running for coroner – I could probably figure it out after a while, but at the moment, I’m simply not the best person for the job.

For the MDG Publication, we urge your support for the only viable and experienced candidate, Derek Skees.

Those who disagree are free to write an op-ed of disagreement, and Rep. Skees is free to counter it. We have adopted – for this primary season only – a “1 for 1” policy of op-eds; one for, one against – no matter the race. Furthermore, as a matter of policy, we do not “fact-check” op-eds; in fact, we despise the notion. Let the reader beware and research for themselves.

Propelled By Trump, J.D. Vance Wins Ohio GOP Senate Primary

We are in one of the most important local and state campaign seasons ever. The ‘scamdemic’ definitely “separated the wheat from the tares” and we can see who is really for liberty and truly stands on principle and who does not. It couldn’t be clearer. I read a lot of comments about how this person “has to win” or people complaining about elected officials or rising property taxes or the price of everything. Yet I see very little action.

A group of us have been waving signs for our liberty candidates the past two weekends and this includes busy people with full time jobs, mothers with young children; people with disabilities, health and mobility issues, etc. But we can’t get anyone to show up and help us. Most of us have also been hanging door hangers, in spite of these challenges, but we can’t get others to help us.

This is 5% of the people doing 95% of the work.

Do you really value liberty? Is it actually worth some of your time and effort to try to help us get truly liberty-minded candidates elected? How many of you are retired or can even watch someone’s kids so they can participate if you can’t? This is incredibly important.

It’s easy to be a “keyboard warrior,” but it’s not easy to do more than talk. And even those on their keyboards aren’t spreading the word! Where are the shared posts, messages, etc.? Is that really so difficult or are you too busy watching funny pet videos to bother about our future?

If you sit back and do nothing and the candidate you wanted doesn’t get elected, you have forfeited your right to complain.

No crying the blues about your property taxes increasing, or out of control crime, or infringements to your liberties, or politicians who don’t listen and/or care about you, or what you have to say. If you sit back on your blessed assurance and do nothing, you will have the business as usual politicians you deserve. If this post offends you, I’m probably talking to you.
