Oh, my. Look at those uncivil gopers in Montana

The House Republican majority leader, Michael Lange, unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at Gov. Brian Schweitzer Wednesday, saying the Democratic governor "can go straight to hell."

Lange, of Billings, exploded during a meeting of House Republicans Wednesday morning and repeatedly attacked Schweitzer, who was not present.

The GOP leader called Schweitzer an "SOB on the second floor that thinks he's going to run this state like a dictator"....."So my message to the governor is to stick it up your ass," Lange shouted angrily. "That's my message to him. Stick it up your ass."

Many of the House Republicans applauded this comment.

At one point, Lange accused Democrats of negotiating like "radical socialists" like those in the Soviet Union, North Korea and "Red China." They won't compromise or capitulate, he said.

4. The Soviet Union? North Korea? Red China?

The GOPigs should check the "fresh-on" date of their remarks.


The Soviet Union doesn't exist any more.


North Korea is isolated.


And Red China? How many here want to be that this asshole, Lange, has stock in companies that work directly with "Red China?


No, lil GOPig. Don't try and use that tired and worn out attack. You clowns have surpassed these old labels with all that you have done in the last 12 years.

6. Lange repeatedly attacked Schweitzer, who was not present

That pretty well sums it up, I'd say. Republicans really like their battles one-sided, and if at all possible against an inanimate object, like a piece of video or audio tape.

7. Cowards--pretty much sums up the GOP. Schweitzer is a big guy--

I'd like to see this Lange guy talk smack to his face.
