These Stephanie ads are right in there with the Reagan Good Morning ads. All feel good pretty charming images but all with one major problem.

Her ads give the war credibility and the deaths already wasted a meaning unsupported by reality and in a way that guarantees only that more American young men and women will die for nothing beyond election chances.

Not hard to understand why she does it in a state filled with Republinuts who will vote Republican as one years ago said, "Until I have to go to the corn crib to get breakfast."

But, still discouraging because it is a short-range tactical ploy with disastrous long-range strategic political consequences.

One of these years the Republicans will find a candidate who doesn't have a truckload of wingnut baggage and that will require a total change in the blue dog's yowl.

He's also pro bolo tie. That's why I voted for him.

That is a great ad. Not only does it remind voters that she supports the troops (with her actions, not just her 'I support the troops rhetoric'), but it shows that she's working for South Dakota families. It's a great message...

Also, it doesn't say she supported the war, it says that she's voting to get our troops the tools they need... and taking care of our veterans. That's what she -- and all Dems and Repubs -- SHOULD be doing. The men and women from SD serving overseas didn't vote for the war -- they simply did their duty when they called. The war was happening when Herseth was elected. To say that it's wrong of her to work for body armor for those overseas... and to take care of our vets when they come home is crazy. And, for the record, I've been opposed to the war from the beginning. But we shouldn't take it out on our troops. Steph is right on this one...

Isn't it great what you can get from a costume store. Did anyone else notice the "soldiers" in the ad had no rank and no branch on the uniform. Complete fake!

KSFY: Advance copy of abortion measure in hand

By -
KSFY is announcing that they have an advance copy of the abortion measure in hand and are giving details on what it contains:
The new bill says if a woman's life is in danger, or she is a victim of rape or incest, an abortion can be performed upon certain conditions. Specifically, the bill says if a doctor determines the pregnancy has put a woman's life in danger and another doctor agrees with the assessment, an abortion can be performed. In a case of rape or incest, the crime must be reported within 50 days of the event. An abortion could then be performed no later than 17 weeks into the pregnancy in both cases.and...

A source tells KSFY there are 25 sponsors of the bill, but there is no prime sponsor, it's a group effort.You can read that all here, but that last line is complete BS. SOMEONE is going to have to put their name on the line as the prime sponsor of the measure.

Despite Gordon Howie being the likely person whose name is going to be on the line, I'm told that …

Check this out - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argus_Leader:
ControversyIn March of 2006, the Argus Leader came under fire for attempting to control distribution rights within the city of Sioux Falls.The Argus Leader through a subsidiary company, News Center Distribution (NCD), had local businesses sign contracts saying that the Argus Leader controlled the publications to be distributed in their businesses. [2]The agreement allowed the Argus Leader to display and give away its free publications like Live, PetMag and City Style. Other independent publishers such as Prime, Renter's Guide, the Shopping News and others would have to pay the Argus Leader a fee to distribute their publications.But if the independent publishers didn't pay the Argus Leader, they threatened to physically take their competitors magazines out of contracted businesses.The Argus Leader’s move was viewed as a violation on First Amendment rights after they gained exclusive contracts to control distribution on …
