Dems don’t like it when you mess with Wismer’s bobolink. Or is it the Wismer waste of legislative space?

From the mailbox, apparently Democrat Senator Nesiba is up in arms because Susan Wismer is taking a little heat in her race… over her bobolink?

Wismer and Nesiba seems to be trying to make it out that Wimer was postcarded over her state songbird bill. Well, not exactly.

Because the bobolink bill is not all that this postcard says, if you pay attention to where it says “Since being elected in 2018, State Senator Susan Wismer was the author of 6 bills. All of them failed.

And they omit the front of the card, which according to the copy I obtained, says a bit more about it.

That picture tells a lot more of the story than all of Nesiba’s whining about Wismer’s doomed bobolink measure.

Taken all together, it’s about her not being able to get any of the bills she authored off the ground.

And maybe it is about District 1 being the site of the Wismer waste of legislative space?

  1. My question is did Wilmer approve Nesiba’s response before he sent it? I can’t imagine a single legislative district in the US which nightlight without prodding those bills/issues and “mission critical” regardless of their merits.

    It is always fun when one gets to see one beaten by one of their funds. Legislative District #1 is not the professors lounge at Augustana College.

  2. What is wrong with our state? Here we are without a state songbird! Time is running out! Doesn’t anybody even care anymore? BTW, we don’t have a state dog either. Or a state cat for that matter, but then who would care about that? I nominate the English Springer Spaniel as the state dog.

    1. Meanwhile, we do have an official soil and fossil… Oh, yeah. And an official “nosh”.

      State Animal: Coyote
      State Tree: Black Hills Spruce
      State Bird: Chinese ring-necked pheasant
      State Mineral: Rose Quartz
      State Fish: Walleye
      State Gemstone: Fairburn Agate
      State Insect: Honey Bee
      State Fossil: Triceratops
      State Flower: Pasque
      State Soil: Houdek
      State Sport: Rodeo
      State Nosh: Chislic
      State Dessert: Kuchen

      1. Gee, my grandkids think I am the state fossil. I believe some people have TOO much time on their hands to worry about state this and that. I thought we had plenty with the pheasant and pasque. I have never heard the word “nosh” before. But if we are going to have one, chislic is a great choice. Ask anybody in Iowa if they like chislic and they will look you in the eye and say “Huh?”

  3. Oops. I just realized the words is quotes were from Wismer. Dangers of reading on a phone with old eyes. That is the worst response to ever. Never seen worse. It’s a good thing for the Dems she just takes up a seat and has never been put out there in leadership or nominated for statewide office.
