A friend and reader passed these along from Democrat Tim Bjorkman’s part of the state where I’m told they’re showing up in stacks in local coffee shops and taverns.
The Bjorkman campaign notes that he stands for a mandatory $11.00 adult minimum wage, which really doesn’t fly with business owners and retailers, and represents a nearly $4.00 an hour jump ($3.75 if you’re being exact) in the federal minimum wage. That’s likely something that liberal dems will get behind.
As Bjorkman does something to energize his Democrat base, then he throws cold water on them and notes that he wants to “Require able-bodied adults to work in order to qualify for assistance,” something that the left hasn’t exactly been fond of in the past as Republicans have promoted the idea. In fact, some liberals are complaining about Governor Daugaard tying work to Medicaid benefits, calling it “cruel.”
Is Democrat Bjorkman trying for a broader based appeal than his Democrat base provides him? (Notice you dont see “Democrat on his card.)
Or will he end up alienating people on both sides of the aisle.
“(Notice you dont see “Democrat on his card.)”
What? Where is the word “Republican” in the ads for John, Marty, Kristi, and Dusty on this blog site?
Tim Bjorkman is one one the most ethical, honest people you will ever meet. He is not a politician. Very authentic. He is for term limits just like Trump.
Tim Bjorkman has two arms, just like Trump. Tim Bjorkman puts his pants on one leg at a time, just like Trump. Tim Bjorkman eats hamburgers, just like Trump. Heck, they’re practically the same person!
The only difference is Tim Bjorkman has more than two brain cells. Tim Bjorkman puts public service over personal gain. Tim Bjorkman won’t elbow his way to the front of the buffet line.
Come to think of it, they’re actually nothing alike… Not even for sure positive that Trump qualifies as Homo Sapiens.
I’d guess Trump has a higher IQ than you do, Ike; but then, it appears a house plant does as well.
Could be, I suppose. Meanwile, I’m not the president, so the stupid stuff I say doesn’t panic our allies, or cause our enemies to rattle sabres. Even then, I don’t put much stock into measuring contests, but the fact that you do makes me question the size of… yours.
So he is pro life? That is not going to go over with the pro abortion Dems.
His comment about the 1% is getting old and probably won’t attract the other side. Just who pays most of all federal taxes? And who makes it possible for half of the country to pay nothing in federal taxes?
Both Democrat candidates are pro-life. They have no other choice. I shouldn’t even be an issue.
Except that were they to be elected and had to vote to repeal Roe v Wade, would they honor that pro life position if their vote was the deciding vote? I wouldn’t bet on it.
Actually in rereading his statement, he does not say he is pro life as regards abortion. Instead his statement is the usual blather that constitutes favoring more welfare spending. Read carefully!!
How many times have the Republicans tried to overturn Roe vs Wade and they now have the House, Senate and Presidency. Zero. The Republicans love the pro-life issue. That’s how they raise money and get elected.
