Hopeless politics


Last night Kadizzle attended a dinner honoring Dorgan. Dorgan seems like he just gave up. You could just see somehow that he felt the mess in the Capital is hopeless. Basically he is a good man fighting for the common people. As Kadizzle sat there bored to death with the typical political nonsense he recalled once when he called Dorgan. Cannot even remember what the call was about. Kadizzle expected to get some secretary in an office that would give him the brush off. Instead Dorgan took Kadizzles call in the hallway of the Senate. Dorgan spoke as long as he could and said he had to leave for a vote. Kadizzle has always been amazed in North Dakota that when you want to get hold of a person in government you can. Years ago Kadizzle had a problem with a car dealer in Bismarck. Kadizzle called the attorney general. The AG took the call said he would take care of the problem, and he did. Kadizzle was new to North Dakota and never thought such a thing was possible.

Sadly our government has been brought to a standstill by Republicans that can only say no. Like little stubborn children they just say no. To get elected all they have to do is play one of their magic cards, guns, gays, abortion, or god. If a brick took the Republican stand on guns, gays, god, and abortion the brick could win office forever in North Dakota. Currently we have enough bricks in North Dakota to build a wall that will stop progress forever. Dorgan is right to feel hopeless.
