So now when you threaten someone saying, "I'm gonna throw your butt off Denali", they're gonna thinK..."GMC SUVs aren't that high go ahead !"

I think it's funny that the RW is going nuts about this. Alaska wanted the name changed back to Denali in 1975, but the Ohio? Congressional delegation opposed it. Sarah Palin, like all Alaskans, calls it Denali. It seems that 'States Rights' are very important to Republicans, until President Obama supports them.

As for how it became known as Mt McKinley? It seems that it was an act of trolling:
