		For Rep. Denny Rehberg, a free trade agreement between the United States and Australia is all about Montana beef, while Rep. Barbara Cubin is focused on the agreement's implications for Wyoming's trona industry.

		Rehberg has informed Republican House leaders and the Bush administration of his concerns so he does not surprise them if he votes against the agreement.

	A Chicken Is Not Pillage: Denny Rehberg: Stupid, Or Lying?
		Denny Rehberg, like many politicians, tends to take advantage of that doubt, and leaves me wondering if he really is just a cheap liar.
		Denny obviously doesn't understand that he just claimed to be an authority on "Shoot, shovel, and shut up", based on his own experience; there's only one way to become such, and that's to be a willing participant.
		Rehberg claims that the decision to divert water was "junk science" and backs it up with quotes from a NAS report on the decision.

		Rehberg wrote to constituents that his vote for the CARA Land Grab "was one of the most difficult decisions I've made during my nearly 25 years in public service." He voted to enrich the Washington, DC liberal establishment over the economy and property rights of Montanans.
