From Facebook, last night the humor facebook page Dakota Posts offered another Stace Nelson cartoon, this time based on a few posts I’ve done about Nelson’s habit of taking to Twitter during committee hearings:
Here we go again.
What was I saying about it being a long session?
Hilarious once again!
A little more combover and it could be Trump.
Looks like someone is nervous about Stace jumping into the Governor’s race.
Is Stace going to run against the Republican candidate as an Independent or a Democrat?
none of the above…he doesn’t have the guts
Baaaahahahahahaha that’s the beat joke I’ve heard all day! He’s about as electable to the office of Governor as the HubbleCraft! Hahaha
Sure got the RINO part right….
great Democrat operative
It’s human nature to care about what others write about you, but it’s rude and inappropriate to tweet or email or read the newspaper during committee hearings when you’re supposed to be paying attention to the person that drove across the state to testify.
If there isn’t a rule against this behavior, there should be. HINT: Brock Greenfield, Blake Curd.

You’re not wrong, but it’s a sad day for all of us if we have create a law or rule telling Legislators they cannot be on social media during committee meetings. Perhaps, if caught, the phone should also be confiscated and only given back if the Legislator’s parent or guardian personally comes to pick it up. You know, like in middle school.
That’s funny;) Good one!
Similar to Legislators having to attend sexual, sensitivity training and may be required to tattletale on each other.
“Remember students, keep your hands to yourself.”
What’s wrong with double tasking?
What’s wrong with you inviting guests over to your house for dinner and instead of them looking at you when you speak, they have their head buried in their cell phone while texting?
Rude, rude, rude.
Happens all the time. lol
Here again, law makers have the right to communicate with constituents via social media during session. It’s the quickest way to get information to the public. Is it misused something?
I would get so. Get on to something with substance.
It’s rude to text, email or read the paper when you are supposed to be looking at the person that drove across the state to speak to you.
There are other times legislators can communicate with constituents – just not during committee hearings.
Maybe they are boring.
This is so wrong of Stace, what is he still doing in office. He is a disgrace and shouldn’t seek reelection. He needs to stay out of the public for good.
This is so wrong of Stace, what is he even doing in office. He is a disgrace and should not seek re-election.
