NARN “THE FINAL WORD” TODAY FROM 3-5 P.M.
By Michael B. Brodkorb | August 16, 2008
I’ll be on the radio today for a two-hour program from 3-5 p.m. with King Banaian of SCSU Scholars on AM 1280 The Patriot.
Before you listen to King and me, make sure you listen to the first four hours of the Northern Alliance Radio Network. From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. you can hear Power Line’s John Hinderaker and Chad and Brian from Fraters Libertas. Mitch Berg and Captain Ed are on the air from 1-3 pm.
I encourage you to all to listen. Broadcasts can be heard on AM 1280 The Patriot, which has an Internet stream for those outside the Twin Cities. Brave Democrats and proud Republicans can join the conversation at (651) 289-4488.
UPDATE: Representative Pat Garofalo, assistant minority whip in the Minnesota House of Representatives, was be a guest from 3:15 – 3:45 p.m. to talk about the House Republicans requesting an investigation into out-of-state welfare spending. Click here for a map of where the money was spent.
UPDATE #2: Tom Steward, regional communications director for Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign, was a guest from 3:45 to 4:00 p.m
UPDATE #3: Drew Emmer who blogs at Wright County Republican was a guest from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. to talk about the endorsement of Representative Mark Olson by the SD 16 Republicans. 6th CD Republican Chairman Mark Swanson and Paul Vollkommer, Chairman of the HD 16B Republicans were also guest of the show to talking Olson’s endorsement. While I disagree with their decision, I appreciate Swanson and Vollkommer coming on the show.

Minnesota does border Michigan, you need to get guest that know geography.

Right Mike. Because lots of people from Detroit
take water taxis to Duluth.

Yes – Isle Royale borders Minnesota – not Wisconsin.

While it is true that Michigan does technically border Minnesota, it is NOT true that people leave Grand Portage, cross to Michigan at Isle Royale, then end up in the UP of Michigan. They have to go through Wisconsin first.
Besides, Michigan may border Minnesota, but sure as hell Illinois does not. And that, my friends, is where most of these welfare cheats come from.

Heres an idea if 5 Minnesota grocrey stores are closer to you then those across the border your card is only Minnesota elegible. I’m pretty sure that would cover 99.9% of all residential areas.
It’s not cheating if its not against the rules. We have to blaim the Republicans who allowed this legislation to pass with no protection.
This is why Pawlentys cigarette and stadium tax are completly unacaptable.

Hey, is that the same Tom Steward that claimed Team Smokescreen had research that proves Norm was paying fair market rent?
Is that this Tom Steward?
“As the senator indicated to the National Journal and further articulated last Friday, he is paying fair market value for his cramped bedroom in a basement of a home in D.C. As our research shows, this rent is comparable to other rent in the D.C. area,” Steward said.
(Star Tribune)
The same guy, “right”?
Why is it that Team Smokescreen has never released that research?

You know Tommy if you want to grip why don’t you grip about all the free cars and gas each member of Congress gets. Charlie Rangel the chair for the Ways and Means committee gets to lease a car that is $800 and it’s paid for by the taxpayers (that is us). You might not like the price of Norm’s rent, but he pays for it out of his pocket.
Maybe if all the Democrat members of Congress had to pay for their cars and gas they will be eager to do real energy solutions.

Walter, you are the one who needs to get a grip. The people of Minnesota aren’t griping about congressional auto perks, because they are uniform. The gripe most people in Minnesota have is with a Senator who takes reduced rate rent, pays sporadically or with furniture, and only pays the utility bills when called on it.
Maybe you don’t live in Minnesota, but there are a lot of people here who are struggling to pay their monthly bills. But they do it, because they know that when you don’t pay rent, you get evicted, and when you don’t pay utilities, you get cut off. Minnesotans understand this, and so when a guy making $160,000 a year says he can’t cut rent at $600, the voters have to wonder if he is the sort of guy they want representing them.

You’re on crack because “most Minnesotans” don’t even know about this DFL-made-up non-issue. And those that do don’t give a rip because they know it’s a non-issue (no matter how many times you post your drooling idiocy here).

Hey Leroy I live in Minneapolis, MN!
I struggle even worse than you do because the Democrats control and operate the school board incompentently causing high property taxes while at the same time not producing high quality in high school graduation rates let alone having people ready for colleges and jobs, I live in a city where all the aldemrman and the mayor is a democrat where they spend money on silly programs ignore the police and the mayor is happy that he is raising property taxes just 7 percent this year (Coleman in his eight years in Saint Paul provided essential services wells and never did a protery tax hike), I’m paying extra in gasoline taxes let alone other taxes because the only solution to government is spend more money instead of not spending it better.
So I’m the expert here not you. You apparently can’t read Minneapolis, MN so what do you know.
My point about the rent is simple. Coleman pays the rent from his pocket. Members of congress get their cars and gasoline because after we get done every month working hard to pay for our cars and gas we fork over money to members of Congress to pay for their cars and gas. If they were digging out of their own pocket they might have noticed that gasoline prices are high and will propose real solutions.

Walter, your point is real simple: you and your bootlickin’ republiCon friends couldn’t give a rat’s ass less when an elected GOPer breaks rules.
Norm Coleman’s rent deal is against Ethics Rules – but you couldn’t care less. Now it’s reported he’s been cheating on his utilities too – and you bootlickers think it’s no big deal. Norm’s landlord, the Chair of the Host Committee for the GOP National Convention was cheating on his Property Taxes, and you dismiss it out of hand.
This is why GOP now stands for GreedOverPrinciples, and reasonable people recognize republiCons as the party of institutionalized hypocrisy.
August 18th, 2008 at 8:10 AM
What rule is being broken. A person gives rent below what other people think should be charged. I have a person who I rent space in my house to below what people think should be charged.
But Tommy if you’re mad that Coleman gets a deal he only has to pay $600 why aren’t you mad that members of Congress get a “FREE” car let alone gas at our expense? Where’s your outrage their Tommy.
Start being outrage there than we can discuss this allegled rent scandal.

Walter-
Is the person you give a break in rent to a member of the US Congress? Their ethics rules forbid them from taking such gifts. THAT is why this is an issue. Norm Coleman does not seem to take the ethics laws that are meant to keep Senators out of the shine of a bribery investigations all that seriously.
And for the record, he does not pay for that apartment out of his own pocket. His sugar mama in LA pays the rent.
