Some more Classics from Conrad Burns.

 

In 1994, a Washington Post editorial noted that Burns recounted an incident when a rancher asked him, "Conrad, how can you live back there [in Washington] with all those n*****s?" Burns reportedly "told the rancher that it was 'a hell of a challenge.'"

 

During a 1999 speech to Montana constituents about U.S. dependence on foreign oil, Burns referred to Arabs as "ragheads."

Amazing.

Kinda like Strom Thurmond with his racist insanity getting elected via write in vote.

 

What's scarier? That people would vote for a racist, piece of s*** asshat like that or the people who would vote for a racist piece of s*** asshat like that would know how to read/spell to vote appropriately?

I love this guy.

 

U.S. Sen. Conrad Burns urged Gov. Brian Schweitzer to declare a fire state of emergency Thursday and activate the Montana Army National Guard for firefighting -- more than a month after Schweitzer had already done so.

 

In a brief letter faxed to the governor's office Thursday, Burns expressed his concern about the 156,000-acre Derby Mountain fire near Columbus.

 

“Entire ranches have been consumed and homes have been lost,” Burns wrote. “Based on these conditions, I am requesting that you declare a state of emergency.”

 

However, Schweitzer had declared such a state of emergency on July 11 - thus activating the Montana Army National Guard. He issued a second declaration on Aug. 11.

Almost makes me wish I was back at Field Camp.
