Rather than engage in substantive debate, Representative Rehberg has called for a thirty day waiting period after every stage of the health care debate. For the past few months, I’ve assumed that this was nothing more than the garden-variety talking point conservative obstructionism that has characterized Rehberg’s tenure in Washington, but today, I am less [...]

Nothing would be more fitting then to discuss Veterans and the second amendment on this Veterans day, because without Veterans fighting for our freedoms across the world, there would be no second amendment right, and there would be no Constitutional rights. Congressman Dennis Rehberg (R - Montana) introduced the Veterans Heritage Firearms Act of 2009 on January ninth, the purpose of the legislation...

Dennis Rehberg, your aspiring Senator, yesterday: Montana’s Congressman, Denny Rehberg, today reacted strongly to the release of federal unemployment figures that, for the first time since 1983, breached 10 percent.

Dennis is so excited about yesterday. He was pretending to have read the House health care bill, doling out bits of “sunshine” as he feverishly read through through the text, exposing its nefarious schemes to socialize American life. Rehberg was excited, the Montana media was excited, and the Park County Republicans had to clean up [...]

Two protracted wars, a deep economic recession, a crumbling health care system. Certainly serious issues for members of Congress to address, but perhaps nothing measures up to the important work Dennis Rehberg did in Washington last month: Montana’s Congressman Denny Rehberg helped arrange White House tours for 80 Montanans during a particularly busy month of tour [...]

Many on the Montana right have bent far enough over backwards to kiss their own arses, in desperate attempt to defend Dennis Rehberg from appearing stupid given his 'ride up the rocks'. No problem; who cares. Oh wait. I care....

I’d say this gem from the Missoulian pretty well encapsulates what’s wrong with both the media and the medical industry in the United States today. Where would the public be without the critical eye of the Fourth Estate and essential positions like Vice Presidents for Public Relations at hospitals'One shudders to think about the consequences [...]

A lot of big campaign news today, but most of it wound up already on the front-page. Here's the best of what's left: MT-AL: Rehberg's Polling Is Mediocre Heading Into 2010 Cycle I give James L. over at Swing State a ton of credit for catching this, especially since it was a Daily Kos poll, and I missed it completely. Buried in the Baucus numbers was a question about how folks in Montana view their...

While yours truly was enjoying a day off by picking numerous large trout out of a Big Hole riffle, my dedicated wife decided to go see what a "Listening Session" by Montana's right-wing Representative Dennis Rehberg might entail. After all, in a Democracy, it is important that our elected representatives hear what We the People are thinking so that we can remain One Nation Under God. Right?...

I’m glad that we pay Representative Rehberg $174,000 annually and fund a staff that costs millions. How else would we gain insight like this? Rehberg said that he is not advocating not reforming the system, and that he thinks changes will be made. “I don’t think anyone is saying it isn’t broken … ,” he said. [...]

by jhwygirl Pogie’s got the story. Ol’ Representative Rehberg – he’s against the stimulus, unless, of course, he’s out-and-about the state passing out checks. Do I think it’s a raw deal handed down to the mine? Yep. The point here is this: Rep. Dennis Rehberg is against government intervention in the market [...]

How does Dennis Rehberg deal with all the contradictions in his positions? Now, I see that he is upset that stimulus money isn’t getting to Montana fast enough to create jobs, even though he doesn’t believe that the stimulus will create jobs. Spending the past six hours (and far too much of the summer) reading law [...]
