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?
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.
Phone typos.

As instead of and.
Friends instead of funds.
Bozolink? Is that the name of the new Fox News studio in Pierre?
I doubt most South Dakotans have ever seen a bobolink.
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.
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
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?”
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.
