Dakota Beacon

Whenever elections rolled around Dorgan, Conrad and Pomeroy put on their flannel shirts to film commercials with soothing guitar music as they told us that they believed in North Dakota values. The biased North Dakota media did their best to convince us they were moderates, not your run of the mill Democrats.

Real unemployment numbers are nearing Great Depression levels thanks to their votes for socialism. We just about have $4 a gallon gasoline thanks to their votes against drilling. The federal government is borrowing money by the trillions to support their entitlement spending. They voted for the most radical legislation ever passed, a government takeover of our healthcare industry. After promising to protect Medicare, they betrayed seniors by gutting it to pass Obamacare. All three even voted for amnesty for illegal aliens.

Where are Dorgan and Pomeroy today? In Washington making big bucks lobbying for the healthcare nightmare that they passed and North Dakota didn’t want. You can’t get the corruption of Washington out of these career politicians.

North Dakota finally realized that Dorgan, Conrad and Pomeroy were left wing extremists marching to the beat of the radical and socialist Democrat party. We awakened from our nightmare and chased them out of office.

History has a funny way of repeating itself. Today Heidi Heitcamp is trying to distance herself from the Democratic Party while trying to convince us that she believes in North Dakota values. The biased liberal North Dakota media is trying to convince us that she’s a moderate. She says that she will protect Medicare after campaigning for Obamacare which gutted it. She referred to President Obama as “awesome”. She’s an extremist just like Dorgan, Conrad, Pomeroy and President Obama. There’s nothing new.

It’s dejavu. If we fall for the same old trick, we will wake up to another socialist nightmare.
