Letters: ‘Wild spending record’
Barbara M. Heying • Spearfish • October 29, 2010
So Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, is rushing $500,000 from her stash to add to a similar amount Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin raised from mostly out-of-state liberals and political action committees to fund her campaign to make South Dakota voters forget Herseth Sandlin’s wild spending record.
Pelosi knows Herseth Sandlin will keep voting for her as speaker along with 92.9 percent of leadership’s liberal agenda. But it’s the attempt to cover up Herseth Sandlin’s reckless spending that’s really outrageous.
Most South Dakota voters are unaware that although Herseth Sandlin voted against a few high-profile measures, in only 12 bills in the current 111th Congress, according to a recent study, she voted to spend $8.5 trillion at a cost of $23,400 per person or $70,270 per family of three. How about the budget resolution for $3.56 trillion or the $787 billion for the economic stimulus or the $500 billion for the omnibus appropriations act?
The U.S. Treasury doesn’t have the money? Not to worry. Herseth Sandlin voted to raise the debt limit by $290 billion in 2009 and $1.9 trillion this year.
Is this the record of a fiscally responsible representative of South Dakota values? No, this is the record of an out-of-control radical liberal of the Pelosi mold.
Candidate Kristi Noem will vote to stop this reckless spending at its source: the U.S. House of Representatives.
