The first legislative crackerbarrel meeting in Rapid City for the 2012 South Dakota Legislative Session was held yesterday at the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology.
My thanks to Ed Randazzo of the Right Side for recording this video when I could not be at the meeting. There were a couple of minor glitches in the editing of this video (they were editing errors, not recording errors), but virtually the entire 2 hours are here.
It is important that citizens know what is going on with their government, and that they remain informed so they can ensure they are being properly and adequately represented by their elected leaders. Please consider taking the time to watch the entire video as you have time.

Senator John Thune (R-S.D.) and Representative Kevin Brady (R-Texas) today re-introduced legislation to permanently repeal the federal estate tax, better known as the death tax, to finally put an end to this punitive tax on family farms, ranches, and businesses upon the death of an owner.
There are at least 10 good reasons why common sense people who are interested in fairness and the rule of law should oppose the immigration 'reform' bill now being considered in the United States Congress. How many of your guesses are on this list?
As the Obama Administration is being uncovered for scandal after scandal, his plans are beginning to backfire. For example, the ever-increasing scandals at the Internal Revenue Service are now jeopardizing critical funding for the agency as it attempts to play a major role in the implementation of Obamacare. Obama was planning a major budget increase for the IRS, but now the feat is proving difficult as Congress sees that the IRS has proven to be untrustworthy. This proves the famous, unchangeable law of sowing and reaping.
There is a general consensus that there is a dumbing down of America underway. There is a growing recognition that our move away from the classical understanding of what constitutes a proper education – and the ends of that education – is largely responsible for the problems we're seeing in the classroom, the workforce, and the culture at large.
A woman who described herself as a teacher of the U.S. Constitution has gone ballistic over Bradlee Dean’s ministry effort at a gasoline station in Florida to drum up support for its campaign to teach the ethics, morality and responsibility of the Bible in public schools. The woman verbally and physically attacked two ministry workers Elizabeth Ilse and Chase Schomberg.

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all." - Ronald Reagan, Nov. 10, 1964 |
