| As JC pointed out, President Obama will be at the Bozeman airport on Friday for a public town hall meeting open to the public, and that Jake Eaton et al will be on hand to disrupt things.
I'm betting this woman will be there:
Parading with Bitterroot Valley Republican groups in her Hummer, Cathy Kulonis said she was exercising her First Amendment rights Saturday when she hoisted a sign reading "No Mo Bro" during Creamery Picnic festivities here.
In response to angry requests to remove the sign, and contentions that it carried unsavory racial overtones regarding President Barack Obama, Kulonis held her ground, referring to those who complained as "red-faced maniacs" and "liberal extremists."
When the parade committee chairman requested that she remove her sign, she once again stood fast and refused to put it away.
She claims the sign was just "Okie talk."
"This issue is not about racism," Kulonis wrote in an e-mail to the Ravalli Republic. "It is not even about me. It is about control. A useless effort by the left to silence me."
"No one intimidates me," she continued. "I will not bow to or obey the pc police. I am afraid of no one. I was born for a time as this. Opinions and names do not change the facts or who I am. I say, 'Watch this Patriot Act!' "
Kulonis said it doesn't bother her that some interpreted her sign as racist.
"I can't help what people think and someone being offended is not my responsibility," she said. "Everything I did, I did with my own kind heart."
Racist, paranoid, self-obsessed, and oblivious: these are the people we're dealing with...
Update: This isn't the first time LiTW has mentioned Kulonis. The "Okie talker" got into a little set-to outside an abortion clinic when she blocked the sidewalk in front of the clinic. That little incident led to the abusurdist SB 497, a bill that made it a crime to "obstruct" anti-abortion demonstrations at clinics.
