Anyone see a trend here? The labor unions own Earl. He represents them, not you.
In an effort to silence political speech they don't want heard this November, the Democrats are ramming through legislation to stop organizations such as the grass-roots "TEA-Party" style groups from making their collective voices heard in the fight to save our nation and our freedom. Among the distinguished enemies of free political discourse: our own Earl Pomeroy, naturally.
Who's fueling the engines of President Obama and the leftist Democrat Party in their attempt to "remake" our nation? Labor unions. Public sector labor unions in particular, but they're all in the same boat. Guess who gets an exemption from this new law they're passing? If you said "Labor unions" you're wise to the game the Democrats are playing.
It's no wonder that Earl Pomeroy represents Big Labor instead of North Dakota; after all, look at the list of his top donors throughout his political career! Every one of those check marks indicates a labor organization bankrolling Earl Pomeroy's re-election and buying his votes.
By the way, labor union representation in North Dakota is still under seven percent according to the government's Bureau of Labor Statistics. Even if every able-bodied union member in North Dakota was sending regular checks to Earl Pomeroy, they couldn't compete with the out-of-state interests that own him.
It's time to get Earl Pomeroy out of office. He has NOT represented North Dakota well over the past seventeen years. He's a rubber stamp vote for the leftist Democrat Party. Send this post, the graphic, or a link to Earl Pomeroy's donation information on opensecrets.org to your friends and family. Educate your fellow North Dakotans on what Earl Pomeroy's been getting away with for nearly two decades. Let's toss him out of office and elect someone who will represent North Dakotans and our interests instead of big out-of-state labor unions who want to wreck this nation and don't care what happens back here in North Dakota!

It's been a while since I posted YAWP (Yet Another Windmill Photo). I'll admit that I'm partial to them; in fact, they have their own category on this site! When I find one that's distinctive like this one I pay it particular attention. The colors of the day made it an even more attractive subject, since I'm especially tired of the dreary skies that have dominated much our spring and summer!

This was the sunset scene from the Memorial Bridge last night. It was a very colorful scene, especially from where I was standing. It wasn't the golden-hued blast I was anticipating, but definitely a nice bit of God's handiwork to appreciate.
This brought to mind the fact that this bridge is fantastic in every way EXCEPT for the absence of a sidewalk on the north side! Thanks to this omission, it's darn near impossible to get a clean sunset photo during the summer, since one must look northward to do so. I say "almost" because I still have my ways...
By the way, you may have noticed these sections of the old bridge as they've now been placed in memorial parks on either end of the new bridge. Cool, huh? The parks are not yet completed but I think they will be soon. The overlook on the Bismarck side might be a nice sunset viewing spot too, by the way!

I don't know how many of you are familiar with dailysquee.com, but if you aren't you really should be. I don't think you even need to be an "animal lover" like myself per se to be overwhelmed with cuteness on that site :) They have some of the cutest baby animal photos in the world. "Squee" is a word for overwhelming cuteness, by the way.
I got my own little "squee" moment this weekend with my kids at the Dakota Zoo. This little baby prairie dog was poking around right by the glass where my 2 year old could watch him. He was so adorable I had to wait until he did something cute, like starting to nom some corn!

( 3.4 / 71 )Earl Pomeroy's office lying to, threatening North Dakota constituents and media...oh yeah, he's under investigation too
Things are getting even more interesting for the hapless Earl Pomeroy, Democrat congressman from North Dakota. Not only is he trailing in the polls badly after his vote for Obamacare, but he's also under ethics investigation for the curious timing of a fundraiser orchestrated for him by a former staffer the night before his vote on a financial bill in Congress.
On the Say Anything radio show a caller claims he was threatened by a staffer in Pomeroy's office when he called to ask if Pomeroy has taken any bribes in exchange for his support of the Democrat agenda. Yikes! This from the office of the same Earl Pomeroy who refused to meet with his constituents before voting to toe the line for Obamacare last year. Not only does he not want to hear from his constituents, apparently his office is prepared to get nasty over it.
This is nothing new; apparently they're threatening the media too. According to the Grand Forks Herald, Pomeroy's office got a TV ad critical of Pomeroy's vote pulled from the airwaves of at least one North Dakota television network, the stations run by KNDX TV here in Bismarck.
When asked by the Bismarck Tribune about the investigation into his fundraising, Pomeroy's office simply showed that they think North Dakotans don't deserve an answer from their "representative" in Congress.
Next, his office lied to the Grand Forks Herald when they claimed that "More than 60 percent of his campaign contributions came from North Dakotans — people from North Dakota."
All it takes is a simple web query such as this one via opensecrets.org to show that Earl Pomeroy gets 80% of his money from out of state, NOT 40%. His office is lying to you.
North Dakotans have wised up to you, Congressman Pomeroy. That's why you're trailing in the polls despite spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in union money to attempt a facelift and salvage your sorry political career.
No wonder the Democrats want to regulate the Internet via the FCC...it took me less than fifteen minutes to come up with the information you see above. I may rant about politics on occasion, in order to stand up for principles I believe in, but unlike Pomeroy's office, I can back it up. Anything in this post you see in colored text is a link to corroborate what I say. Do yourself a favor: stay informed, don't fall for Pomeroy's lies, and vote him out in November! Oh yeah...inform your friends, too. Politicians like Earl Pomeroy prefer uninformed constituents. Don't give them what they want.
