#1 Sounds like a resume enhancer for a GOP politician to manhandle a socialist Grauniad jackass. Should have given him a wedgie too.

#2 He still won.

#3 It's Montana.
Could very well be why he won.

#5 If you are concerned about your health sir you should not ask your health care question in a way that would require an ambulance.

#9 ...well, I recall a Donk operative once said "push back twice as hard".

Was that another application of 'one set of rules for me, another set of rules for thee'?

#10 Gianforte might be on to something in regards to a campaign strategy for others. However, I'm afraid the snowflake RINO pajama boys would be disgusted, triggered by such a suggestion and they might have to retreat to their safe spaces, put on their pampers, suck on their pacifiers and cry.

#13  ...now admits she may have misstated some details of her initial story
Now that the GOP candidate won and this can go to a court appearance ....pesky thing being required to swear under penalty of perjury, what?.... she feels that maybe her earlier words were non-operative*. (*Nixon Era reference)

#14 Mr. Gianforte apologized last night, according to The Times of Israel:

Gianforte dropped out of sight after he was cited by police and ignored calls on Thursday by national Republicans for him to apologize to the reporter.

He emerged only at his victory celebration Thursday night, where he said he accepted responsibility for the incident. “Last night I made a mistake and I took an action I can’t take back and I am not proud of what happened,” Gianforte told the crowd. “I should not have responded the way I did and for that I am sorry.”

All Bluto said was "Sorry..."

#17 I look forward to the day that we can get rid of AA for Hispanics. It's ridiculous that a white woman should be AA-eligible, just because she's got a vowel at the end of her last name. Heck, why are Spanish-speakers of any color from south of the border eligible for AA anyway?

#18 Why shouldn't a person whose name ends in a vowel be allowed to go to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings?

OK, I'm being a wise-ass now...

#19 Zhang Fei:
A woman is eligible for AA regardless of skin color or last name.

So is Caitlyn Jenner.
