    How much of a shit could you give? :-)

    McKinley was shot in the chest by a guy walking up to him to shake his hand.

    Imagine YOU having a greeting line like him at the OC banquet and expecting all the posters to come and pay their respects...... Ha ha ha!

    Thing is most times these retards are right. Just one sided.

    As for the renaming of the mountain I like the idea that the will of the state of Alaska is being taken. Don't like the method however. Given this administrations view of states will on other issues I see this as more of a political move than one born of principle.

    I'm also sure most Alaskans don't like federal control over much of their land. But like most states they tolerate it because they like federal dollars.

    gosh a ruddies he was President of all the country. A backwater state like Alaska should be honored by having anything in it named for McKinley,

    The state of Alaska wasn't even recognized during his presidency.

    gosh a ruddies We owned Alaska since 1867. It became a territory in 1912. Mount McKinley was officially named in 1917 for a martyred President.

    This made me shake my head and wonder what exists in your brain in place of the part that allows a person to be witty. - Infinity to you.

    At least now that we know what side of the argument Izzy's on, we know that it's time to get 100% behind Mount Denali.

    Now cue 25 posts that look cut-n-paste over the next 14 hours that essentially repeat the same thing over and over again until you get the idea that Izzy's an out-of-control spam bot that, due to being a machine, is incapable of actually responding to people and has to simply regurgitate the same shit repeatedly.

    gosh a ruddies, it was and is part of the United States and its population of losers and bear bait were lucky to have anything in their backwater named for a martyred President.

    In 1867 it was o=purchased and became a US Department of Alaska
    1884 it became the District of Alaska
    1912 Alaska Territory

    So, like he said, the STATE of Alaska wasn't recognized. He said nothing about the District and/or Territory of Alaska.
