A mountain of bullshit

Republicans in Ohio are absolutely apoplectic because the White House this weekend announced that President Obama had issued an executive order changing the name of Alaska's Mount McKinley (America's tallest mountain) back to its original (and favored in the 49th state) name of Denali.

Why, you might ask, would Ohio republicans be so upset over this change?  Because the mountain was named for Ohio native and 25th President of the United States, William McKinley.  I mean, we're talking about the William McKinley, the one who had a mediocre Presidency and whose main claim to fame is that his assassination paved the way for a truly great American President, Theodore Roosevelt.

One has to wonder if the President really just wanted to punk republicans--frankly 48 other states couldn't give a shit what Alaskans choose to call the mountain, and all the Ohio republicans bitching has done is, once again, make republicans look colossally stupid.

Peace,
