COWBOY POETRY BY H. FRED LIESE Fred Liese makes his home at the edge of Black Coulee near Turner, Montana. Raised on the Big Flat, he finds plenty of “inspiration” in the people and things around him every day, and Fred’s brand of entertainment has earned him a large following throughout the US and Canada.

No Matter How You Slice It While beef is on her diet This cut would make her choke As “tongue” defies her menu, Here are the words she spoke.

“Up it comes from dark confines A low digestive depth The thought is branded in my mind I even smell their breath”.

“I can’t bring myself to eat it” She added, then recoiled “I just can’t bear the thought Be it pickled fried or boiled”.

“There are microscopic creatures From the ground, they have been picked Then what about the salt block That every cow has licked”.

“I know the rough exterior I know it was removed I know the preparation I know it was approved.”

“My mind is locked on motherhood My color surely drains Now back across the tongue, Slides the afterbirth remains”.

“I know the natural process Calves develop when they’re young Tons of greenish fodder, They will slide across their tongue”.

Then the cattle man injected, “Let me ask you, Miss To follow your perspective, Have you had a Frenchy kiss?”

“Add to those ingredients, Water, bugs and mud, Then repeat the process The bovine chews its’ cud.”

WHAT IF GOD HAD VOICE MAIL

We have all learned to live with “voice mail” as a necessary part of modern life. but have you wondered what would happen if God decided to install voice mail? Imagine praying and hearing this: Thank you for calling My Father’s House. Please select one of the following options: Press 1 for Requests Press 2 for Thanksgiving Press 3 for Complaints Press 4 for All Other Inquiries. I’m sorry, all of our angels are busy helping other sinners right now. However, your prayer is important to us and will be answered in the order it was received, so please stay on the line. If you would like to speak to: God, Press 1 Jesus, Press 2 The Holy Spirit, Press 3 If you would like to hear King David sing a psalm while you are holding, please press 4. To find out if a loved one has been assigned to Heaven, Press 5, enter his or her social security number, and then press the pound key. (If you get a negative response, try area code 666.) For reservations at “My Father’s House,” please enter J-O-H-N followed by 3-1-6. For answers to nagging questions about dinosaurs, the age of the earth, and where Noah’s ark is, please wait until you arrive here. Our computers show that you have already prayed once today. Please hang up and try again tomorrow. This office is closed for the weekend to observe a religious holiday. Please pray again Monday after 9:30 am. If you need emergency assistance when this office is closed, contact your local pastor. Thank God He doesn’t have boice mail and that He listens when we pray! Guitars of Montana.

HOW SAFE IS YOUR RETIREMENT PLAN? As you plan for retirement, you may count on an employer sponsored “qualified” retirement plan such as a pension plan, profit sharing plan, or 401(k). Or perhaps you are counting on your traditional IRA or your Roth IRA. Someone else may be counting on those assets, too. Creditors, perhaps? It would be nice to know if creditors could get to your retirement savings. Up to now, your qualified plan accounts find their creditor protection in federal law and are generally fully protected - no matter how large. Your IRAs, however, find their protection in state law and, unfortunately, many states do not fully protect IRAs. In fact, the level of IRA protection varies widely by state and so has been a point of confusion for many investors. For those with little or no state IRA protection, federal bankruptcy law offers up to $1 million in IRA creditor protection.

For Sale: 1999 GMC C6500 dump truck, CAT 3126-175 diesel motor, standard transmission, 27,000 GVW, PTO operated hydrolics, 6-7 yard dump bed, dual side toolboxes, duel fuel tanks, 210K, $19,900. 399-2492. 4-II

This $1 million protection limit for IRAs applies to all of your traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. Assume your state law offers little or no protection to IRA assets and you own two traditional IRAs and one Roth IRA. If each IRA is worth $200,000, you would have a total of $600,000 in IRA assets. The new federal bankruptcy law protects up to $1 million. So, your IRA assets should be fully protected from creditors. But, let’s assume that when you retire, you roll $500,000 from your 401(k) into one of your IRAs which will increase your total IRA assets to $1,100,000.

Amounts rolled over from qualified retirement plans, and the future growth on those rollover amounts, are both fully protected under the new federal law. These amounts are not counted toward your $1 million limit. So, in your case, the $500,000 of 401(k) monies you rolled into your IRAs is protected and is not counted toward your $1 million limit. The remaining $600,000 ($1,100,000 less $500,000) is still entirely protected as it falls below the $1 million limit. All of your $1,100,000 IRA assets are protected. To simplify your “counting,” you may want to keep your qualified retirement plan assets in an IRA other than the one to which you make your regular annual contributions. The best way to do this may be to establish a separate IRA and roll your “qualified” retirement plan assets directly into this new IRA. The rollover amount and all future growth will be easily identifiable. Proper financial planning includes making decisions about how to handle rollovers of qualified plan accounts and manage risks, including the potential risk of creditors. The important thing to remember is that you should avoid making rollover, risk management, or other financial decisions, based solely on one aspect of risk management. Consult with your financial advisor for assistance with rollover decisions and incorporating proper risk management into your financial plan. This material was prepared by Raymond James for use by Greg Dugdale, Branch Manager of Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. Member FINRA/SIPC.

Wo r d s F r o m We n d y

As you know, our very own Wendy Warburton is serving in Helena again this Legislative Session representing the people of House District 34. During her hiatus from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Triciaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Traderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, she has graciously agreed to send us updates of the happenings in the capitol of this great state. Friends and neighbors, Tax Freedom Day is an estimate of how long citizens have to work to pay their federal, state, and local taxes combined. Each stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s date is a little bit different, and in Montana, all the work that you do until April 5th goes to the government, on average, according to the Tax Foundation. This does NOT take into account the national deficit, only the current spending. (See www.taxfoundation.org for details). National Tax Freedom Day was April 12th this year. Essentially, Montanans spent between Âź and 1/3 of the year working for the government. This is one reason Republicans in the Montana Legislature have worked so hard to reduce spending rather than raise taxes to balance the state budget. To bring in more revenue and try to reduce the burden on taxpayers, we have worked to pass many bills to make Montana more business friendly, bring in jobs, and expand our tax base. Unfortunately, Governor Schweitzer saw fit to host a partisan political stunt at the capitol using branding irons to veto some good jobs bills during the very week of Tax Freedom Day. ALL of the bills he vetoed were Republican-sponsored bills. With gold and silver prices at historic highs, SB 306 could have helped jumpstart gold and silver mining in Montana by allowing mines to haul their ore to one of two locations in the state open for decades, grandfathered in after the cyanide ban initiative, and operating with international caliber safety standards. But extreme environmentalist â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chicken Littlesâ&#x20AC;? around the state, apparently poorly informed about what the bill actually does, squawked loudly, and the governor vetoed this good jobs bill. Goodbye to mining jobs, processing jobs, trucking jobs, and all kinds of related support jobs.

He also vetoed SB 159, which would have made new home ownership more affordable by stripping ridiculous mandates such as requiring that ALL unfinished basements in new homes be insulated. Why not give people the freedom to get into an affordable first new home and finish the basement later themselves instead of mandating the addition of thousands of dollars to the upfront sticker price-requiring 40+ years to pay off through any energy savings? On a different topic, the governor vetoed HB 456, a bill that said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s YOUR right as a parent to know beforehand what kind of sex education is taught in your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school, you should have the right to opt them into it or keep them out of it, and it should not be taught using curriculum by abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood. This good bill would have prevented situations like the Helena sex ed fiasco last year from being replicated around the state. He also vetoed good tort reform bills aimed at lowering healthcare costs and bills to assert that Montanans should NOT be pushed into accepting federal Obamacare (i.e. HB 464, SB 228, SB 370). And he rejected bills respecting private property rights: bills that sought to ensure elected county commissioners were involved before FWP could relocate destructive bison within a county (HB 318), prohibiting FWP from using hunting access fees to buy more land (HB 272), and revising interim zoning laws (SB 183) and revising the subdivision and platting act (HB 542) to protect property rights and create predictability in the process. Remember, you can read the actual bill drafts, watch or listen to the actual bill hearings, and get the real, unbiased, un-politicized story at www.leg. mt.gov. Watch the next issue for the scoop on what happens when more House-and-Senate-passed bills hit the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desk, including the state budget, House Bill 2. As always, you are welcome to contact me any time at wendywarburton@gmail. com or (406) 262-3185. Cordially, Wendy~Rep. Wendy Warburton

We hope you enjoy reading this feature in Tricia’s Trader. You may agree, you may disagree with Dr. Kerns’ Ramblings, but

you will always have something to discuss over dinner.

When you filed your income taxes did you check your math? This is a good habit, but even better is to have a completely different set of eyes peruse your 1040 to catch something you might have missed. Our founders had the foresight to design our government so the two chambers of the legislative branch could spot mistakes in each other’s work. We in the House caught a big one on April 8th—in my mind, potentially the most dangerous bill of Montana’s 62nd legislative session nearly became law. Promoted as a bill to save puppies, SB421 wasn’t about puppies at all, it was about power; expanding, unbridled government power. Titled an Act revising animal welfare hearing laws, SB421 sailed 12-0 out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, 41-9 out of the Senate and flew 11-9 past the House Judiciary Committee. The last stop was the House floor where we conservatives frequently feel like the patriots at the Alamo, but unlike in 1836 in Texas, we defeated SB421 on a vote of 59-41. Here is the story. In early 2009, Linda’s animal hoarding case east of Billings burst onto the headlines. Her uncontrolled dog breeding program rendered her situation logarithmically hopeless so the Yellowstone County Attorney’s office filed aggravated animal cruelty charges and confiscated 200 critters. That many canines on ten acres yield a fairly dense deposition of dog droppings, so county officials carefully watched each step. (With the clarity of hindsight, I would say the moment they physically confiscated living, breathing, and eating evidence, they stepped right in the middle of it.) Animal rights organizations rushed to the scene and began beaming video clips of volunteers cradling skinny puppies. Their call for donations went viral and for non-profits, this was the perfect storm. In spite of the tremendous generosity of volunteer labor and money, county officials soon learned what Linda already knew—it’s both exhausting and expensive to provide food and care for 200 dogs. Eight months and 200,000 tax payer dollars later, Linda was sentenced to 20 years probation and her dogs were adopted out. With costly egg on their face, SB421 was drafted to prevent another $200,000 mistake by county prosecutors. Owners accused of animal cruelty must, within 72 hours of being charged, post a bond to provide food and care for the confiscated animals for a period of 30 days and continue to do so every 30 days until adjudication. If you don’t see the red flag, remember SB421 affects all animals; it’s not just about puppies. Here is another fictitious scenario: You have a town job and 150 momma cows you calve on your 40 acres outside of town. Your trophy wife is a swing-shift greeter at Wal-Mart and between both your incomes you can almost lease enough grass to sustain your cow outfit. (It’s great being a rancher.) April 15th rolls past and it has been a long winter with a cold wet spring. Your cows are thin and you are out of hay, money and credit, but like all ranchers, you know “it will be a boomer next year”. In desperation, you open the gate on the calving pen and let your cows grub the 40 acres around the house. Global warming fails to materialize this spring and after 10 days your cows look scraggly and starved. One Sunday afternoon, a couple trust-funders driving their Subaru Outback stop and photograph your skinny 13 year-old lump-jaw cow standing by the road. You held onto the old gal last fall hoping to graft her last calf onto a heifer and this becomes your fatal mistake. The bumper of the Outback is plastered with “Save-The-Whales” stickers and your lump-jaw cow’s digital photo goes viral. Every animal rights non-profit organizer rushes to the scene and then to the sheriff. The death spiral begins. County officials finally cave to the unrelenting pressure from the activists and you are charged with aggravated animal cruelty. SB421 insulates the county from another $200,000 mistake, so they have nothing at risk. Your cows are hauled to a nearby feedlot and you are given 72 hours to post a $15,000 bond for 30 days of feed and care. Posting another $15,000 bond every month, bankrupts your cash flow, grass lease deadlines come and go so you lose your summer forage to the free market. On August 8th, the slow wheels of justice finally give you your day in court and you are acquitted of all charges. By now it’s too late. Your banker greets you on the courthouse steps and calls your operating loan plus the $60,000 bonds. With no other option, you truck your cows to the sale barn, the bank collects the proceeds and you are out of business. Now do you see the red flag? Government must always absorb the cost of prosecution prior to conviction because you just might be innocent. Shifting it to the accused is the equivalent of the barbaric Chinese tradition of asking family members to pay for the bullet used to execute political prisoners. When we increase the law enforcement power of government, we trust they will never mistakenly or purposely abuse their new power. I’m uncomfortable with that. Once we surrender such power it is gone forever and forever is a fairly long time. Being a veterinarian, I know I will be demonized for defeating an animal welfare law, but as I said before, it’s not about puppies, it’s about power. I remain a steadfast “No!” Read more of Krayton’s op-ed in his 350 page book, Ramblings of a Conservative Cow Doctor - a collection of published and unpublished articles written about the life of a cowboy as it pertains to America’s freedom.
