If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen! — Samuel Adams

Endangered Species: The South Dakota Republican

June 4, 2012   ·   By   ·   2 Comments

Here’s what a real South Dakota Republican looks like: Rep. Lora Hubbel in South Dakota District 9, now running for state Senate.

The only real natural enemy the species we call the South Dakota Republican has is the South Dakota RINO (Democrat Party members are not real enemies in South Dakota, but only prey).  The RINO is the same basic size and shape, and has the same basic disposition as the South Dakota Democrat.

However, the South Dakota RINO is dangerous to the South Dakota Republican because it has chameleon-like properties that makes it appear to be a South Dakota Republican at first glance. It is only after you get a good, close look at the behavior of the South Dakota RINO that you can tell that it isn’t a South Dakota Republican…and by then, it’s often too late, and the damage is done. It injects its toxic venom into the unsuspecting in smaller doses than the rare South Dakota Democrat, but those small doses nevertheless make the organism very sick.

So be sure to support a real Republican if you live in Dist. 9.  Real Republicans are an endangered species in Pierre, these days.

This is Rep. Lora Hubbel’s floor speech on January 23, 2012 in opposition to HCR 1001 where she also explains the connection between ObamaCare, South Dakota’s facilitation of ObamaCare, and abortion.

    What towns outside of Sioux Falls are in District 9?

    • http://www.americanclarion.com/ Bob Ellis

      Living on the opposite send of the state, I’m not that familiar with the area, but according to the SOS website, here’s a map of the latest Dist. 9 area: http://legis.state.sd.us/interim/2011/documents/LRE_09272011_District9&25.pdf

      You’d have to compare that to a map I guess to have a better idea of what towns fell within those boundaries.

Ryan-Rubio ‘Conservative’ Amnesty Ads Insult our Intelligence

We have not forgotten the 2007 McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill that was killed in the face of intense outrage from the American people. This administration has engaged in criminal conduct by granting amnesty through presidential edict to certain illegal aliens. If we were outraged back in 2007 at the McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill, we are now outraged to the hundredth power at the latest attempt by Congress to shove amnesty for illegal aliens down our throats.

Operation Vigilant Eagle: Is This Really How We Honor Our Nation’s Veterans?

John W. Whitehead

Just in time for Memorial Day, we’re being treated to a generous serving of praise and grandstanding by politicians, corporations and others with similarly self-serving motives eager to go on record as being pro-military. We erect monuments for those who die while serving in the military, yet for those who return home, there’s little honor to be found. Making matters worse, thanks to Operation Vigilant Eagle, a program launched by the Department of Homeland Security in 2009, military veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan are also being characterized as extremists and potential domestic terrorist threats.

"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
