Preachy Accuracy Stuff vs CSKT Water Compact
by Dr. Ed Berry Compact opponents think, incorrectly, their every complaint against the Compact is a reason to reject the Compact. This is not true. Many complaints against the Compact, even if valid, are not reasons to reject the Compact. To be a reason to reject the Compact, a complaint must relate to the fundamental question:…

Tea Party Libertarian Thinking
The Voting Principle defines moral voting and it prevails over the Mantras and over those who preach against it.
Accusers who say we have “sold out”, or “flip-flopped” by backing the winner of a Republican primary, are the ones who have “sold out” on moral principles.
Widely accepted moral teachings say when there are “two evils” in an election, we must reject third-party candidates who cannot possible win and vote for the candidate who will do the least evil and do the most good.
Those who say we should not vote for the “lesser of two evils” promote immoral actions and the greater evil.
Those who vote to achieve the most possible good from the options available act morally, logically, intelligently, and according to common sense.
The lesser evil Mantra conflicts with logic and with the principles of all major Christian religions. Conservatives must attack the logic and Christianity of radical rightwing leaders and the Mantras they promote, until the leaders’ followers wake up and realize they are being led astray by their false prophets.
The Tea Party voting Mantra, “A vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil” is invalid from the viewpoints of logic, science, religion, and philosophy. Therefore, the Mantra is a religion unto itself.
Republican leaders must realize the tea party Libertarians or rightwing third-party voters are not fundamentally a political party. They are a minority religion that believes in the Mantra.
A common Tea Party Voting Mantra is:
“A vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil”
Montana’s tea party Libertarians use it as their personal “feely-good” justification to not vote for the “lesser evil” Republican candidate while knowing full well the result of their actions will help elect the “greater evil” Democrat candidate.

by Tim Baldwin, Liberty Defense League I have shown that Natural Law creates the lesser evil principle (hereinafter “LEP”) and that the Founders, philosophers and statesmen of yesteryear applied it in politics. The LEP simply states, where a person must choose between an evil and a greater evil, he must choose the lesser. The way…
by John Kozy, Global Research “Clinging to one’s opinion is the best proof of stupidity.”—Michel de Montaigne Summary Readin’, writin’, and ‘rithmatic don’t occasion much questioning. But subjects like history are another matter! Learning history, or anything else for that matter, can be likened to learning Bible verses if questioning is excluded from the process. This kind…

by Dr. Ed Berry If Montana had elected Denny Rehberg in 2012 and 2018, Republicans would control the US Senate by one vote in 2021.

by Dr. Ed Berry When John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln, he thought he was going to be a hero. He was wrong. He became the most despised man of his era. America rounded up Booth’s accomplices and hung them. Assassination politics gains similar public despise. No one likes an assassinator. When some 18,000…
