Even though I live in Texas back in the day I contributed to the election campaign of John Thune. He may be tall but he’s got a skinny spine. That jerk better stop sending me letters in the mail regularly asking for more $$$.
Sen. Thune has lost my support when he became a prostitute for the ethanol lobby. South Dakota depends on state sales tax as a major source of tax revenue hence a lot of pressure was on Thune from business interests back home, but a tax increase is a tax increase and none are needed until we cut spending.
