hilarious ... I'd say Hoeven is still not actively involved in Republican politics. Reply...
They will win because of only two reasons.... Fargo and the Indian Reservations.... Reply...
I have been e-mailing these 3 clowns for awhile now and haven't even gotten one response. The only help we have is to make sure they DO NOT get re-elected. But, a lot of people in the state "feel" that the three idiots have a lot of experience and have done good things for North Dakota. We have to make it a priority to get them out. They vote the party line 100% of the time, not the issue. Conrad and Dorgan are butt kissers who are trying to further their own careers by being YES men to anything B.O. wants, probably hoping for some kind of appointment. Let's vote 'em out North Dakota!!!!!!!! Reply...
Because our Congressmen have sold themselves out. Reply...
Our ND representatives in DC are "DWEEBS",they are in it for their $$$$$,filling their pockets with our money!! Do you think they really care if ND survives or not-hell no!!!! Reply...
If we want to save our children we need to vote this idiot out. If bankrupting our children is saving them then I guess he's saving them. What a hypocrite moron Reply...
Welcome to the kx forum Washingtonian!! Reply...
I found your post via an internet search... we received the same thing in the state of Washington (Murray & Inslee). I was perplexed by the blatant campaigning, and think it is proof that LiUNA and the others have these politicians in their pockets. Reply...
I received mine yesterday....right into file 13.
What a waste of money! Reply...
Anything from Dorgan goes in the garbage at my house! Reply...
I wouldnt mind my tax money being used to insure children, I think its awesome. I rather see that happen then them waste a bunch of money updating a prison to make it more comfortable for criminals.
I am worried about ND accepting any stimulus money, people are not understanding that will add to the deficit and it will have to be repaid. After we stimulate the economy they will stimulate our wages and we will be back to square 1. Reply...
I like the tv ad about voting privacy in unions, obviously the promotor of the ad doesn't know what a right to work state is. (ie unions have no power) Reply...
I got one of those too, it didn't say who was paying for this. It also came on a nice flyer, how much paper was wasted on this? Reply...
When is free really free? Just print more money. Reply...
Dorgan, Conrad, and Pomeroy and for how many years, we definitely need term limits. We have a major problem here in ND, VUI(Voting Under the Influence), people need to stay sober enough to vote during the next election. Reply...
Dorgan is a "Putz"!!! ND does have alot of drunks,thats for sure,aging from 14 to 80 years old-so sad!!! Reply...
Lets also not forget that not all states have have open container laws either, and that DUI arrests are by per capita. Something gets lost in the numbers when you have a state with 33.5 million people verus a state with only .6 million people. One thing is there is more active focus on DUI's in the rural areas because there are fewer other crimes to focus on.
Back to topic tho, this is truely shocking. Yet again just a few people are talking about the fact so few have actually read the bill but the congress and Obama are gung ho on passing it. Maybe a majority of people don't care what happens in Washington anymore. In which case we deserve the punishment we will get for being ingnorant. Reply...

We are probally #1 for "open container", just look at the ditches of ND. How did this topic get into this thread, I thought this was about our senators voting for this porkulus spending bill? Reply...
I highly doubt North Dakota has the most Alcoholics especially when a lot of cities have at least double the amount of citizens. If you want to go by per capita, let me remind we are the most corrupt state in the union. So that Christian Theocracy would have it's work cut out for them.
Well atleast they trimmed the bill by 100 million. That said the sheer lack of knowledge or ignorance about what is in the bill/what it is aiming to accomplish is scary. Yet all the democrats are only too ready to vote for it. Frankly if the Republicans weren't playing the political game they would be voting yes to it too. All these guys look at Hoover as being a do nothing and that caused the depression. However that isn't the case, Hoover spent a lot of money trying to free up the credit market. On top of that a lot of people look at FDR as the savior. Infact when I was in school they ranted and raved about him. In reality FDR prolonged the "Great" Depression. In fact most of the rest of the world had exited the depression with in 18 months. So what we are learning now is that we are all might as well lube up our butt holes really good. Cause we are going to get shafted for the next 4 to 8 years and possibly more. Thanks to an ineptitudes on both voters and government.
There is an answer to this and that is called the free market. Any stimulus we do should only be infastructure and energy while buying up bad loans. That way the government can make money when those with the good paying jobs start buying houses. Reply...
