There is not mention of anything he did other than being a member of the group of Senators on the committee who unsuccessfully voted against advancing the bill. The rest of the article is about how the bill passed the Senate by a large margin but failed to get a majority vote in the House.

    I’ve found that DINKS and single adults tend to treat and see their pets as children, which is totally fine in my eyes. It’s not the same thing, but they won’t really grasp that concept unless & until they have children. With folks having kids later or not at all, I believe that has been a major contributor to the humanizing of animals as you describe.

    Kristi Noem describing putting down her dog and then using that story to say it shows she has what it takes to make the correct but hard decisions as a politician is a strange flex in my humble opinion.

    There are, or were, speeches of him on the Senate floor arguing against sending aid after America made the promise to replace like for like on all military equipment.

    He also greatly advocated not bringing out allies out of Vietnam, just like he did in Afghanistan. So, he has a record of pretty much telling the world that he won't uphold America's promises and he will drop allies at a heartbeat when it's convenient. All of this was brought out publiclly in the last campaign. But, idiots like you were "orange man bad" and we have this piece of shit and are on the verge of WWIII.

    Politically, she pretty much suicided with this story. The choice of this story to use as an example pretty much make sure she is as high as she can go in politics today and Trump likely will distance himself from her.

    Don't get me wrong, I hated Noem when she vetoed the voters will on South Dakota legalizing cannabis. Which I find far more shitty than killing her dog.

    Do you own or have you ever owned a dog? If so, then using your logic, that makes you part of this bug eating problem that doesn't actually exist, for "humanizing" wolves.

    My pigs aren't gigantic 500+ pound hogs that would have otherwise been sent to a slaughterhouse. But you typically speak in nothing but absolutes 24/7, as demonstrated by your weekend of bending over backwards to compare Noem executing her puppy to abortion and declaring that anyone who disagrees is an animal worshipping city boy, so elaborating further would just be a waste of time.

    Of course I've owned dogs, I've also had to put a dog down.

    The argument isn't equating killing a dog to abortion. The argument is the social outrage over killing a dog in a society that celebrates killing humans in the womb and the Republicans falling for the same Democrat emotion based attacks, every fucking time.

    I would also eat your pig if I had no bacon, because pigs are food.

    Because it was sick and/or suffering? Or because you were mad at it? There's a pretty huge difference.

    It's you comparing apples to oranges. People on both sides of abortion are outraged over Noem's bullshit. Pretty much everyone except for you.
