Noem Ad Mostly Baloney

Three key quotes from Kristi Noem’s dreary new Newspeak ad:

If you can hear over that plaintive guitar, which effectively foreshadows what life would be like under Noem’s feckless pageant-queen rule…

  1. Jerry Derr: “Everything she said she was going to do, she’s done.” Um, reduce the deficit? Stay on House Ag? Repeal Obamacare? End the Trump tariffs on South Dakota farmers?
  2. Mike Cartney: “She has the CEO experience.” CEO? Like I’m CEO of Dakota Free Press? I’m still waiting for anyone to show me one business which Noem chiefly and executively operated that remains funct.
  3. Larry Rhoden: “…has been…”—ah, well, Larry got that right.

    Nice of Noem to share her skills of scraping leftovers off a plate. She probably won’t need that particular skill set in the Gov mansion.

  2. Jennifer

    Ranching, farming, and guns… is that all we care about anymore?

  3. mike from iowa

    Look close at the pic she looks like she is looking at the director getting directions in which way to scrape the plate to get rid of the leftovers.

    Good one mikey. You slay me.

    Started seeing this ad a few nights ago during the local news. Of course, the whole thing is hooey.

    Hoop earrings while doing ranching duties? um, no.

    The bent bill on the baseball cap (that must have been a “hit” during the Jackley/Noem primary ads

    And the portions of the video that add in the slow motion effect. oh brother

    And CEO (like Cory pointed out) THAT one almost made me spit out my dinner. CEO??? haha, of WHAT?

    (she sure is steering clear of her fake story about her dad’s death and taxes isn’t she?)

    Cory, since you are the CEO of Dakotafreepress and I’m the CEO of DaCola, maybe we could start a Blogger CEO PAC. LOL.

  6. South DaCola

    Yeah, I would love to watch her castarate a calf while wearing those earrings. One swift kick, and the testicles wouldn’t be the only thing missing.

  7. South DaCola

    Saw Jackboots babbling on KSFY the other night. He still keeps claiming Noem used ‘negative’ ads. The only thing ‘negative’ about those ads was the TRUTH about what Marty did to one of his employees. While I detest Noem, I will defend her with the DCI ads. They were spot on. Truth hurts.

  8. John Kennedy Claussen, Sr.,

    Her CEO experience probably comes from playing Monopoly with her kids as shown in a 2010 campaign commerical. That’s the commerical where she promised her son, that she would “take care” of the federal deficit thing. And boy, she sure did. Thanks to her and Trump, the new Noem/Trump tax cut will cause federal deficits to skyrocket in the next decade.

    That’s true, John. They’re tax cuts are just making a huge mess with skyrocketing debt. Darn pubs, all they want is to just get out of paying their taxes. Pubs can’t even claim to be fiscal conservatives anymore.

  10. Jenny

    Dana, you’re right. Noem never mentions her tiresome false story about almost losing the farm when her dad died. Thanks to Cory for investigating and shutting her up over that.

  11. CLCJM

    Honesty? The whole ad is phony!

    SD values? Don’t know what the definition of that term but it doesn’t match my values! Huuuge tax cuts for billionaires and the top 1% isn’t the kind of value most of us need or want! Stacking up trillion$ in debt for our great grandchildren to pay doesn’t either! Cutting the social safety net and forcing millions of people into poverty only matches the values of the olegarchs! But that’s who she’s been working for anyway!

    Hard work? She hasn’t done anything seriously physical in years! She’d break a nail! And her jeans that she thinks portray her as a cowgirl? A little too tight for that!

    She cut her risks by leaving the House to run for governor! She got the tax breaks that benefit her estate and her family and ran! Don’t fall for her false ads and her false image! Vote for Billie!

    The curved bill on her cap reminds me of this old joke. “Why do farmers all have the bill on their feed store caps curved down on the sides? A: It makes it easier to peer into the mailbox to see if the government check has arrived.”

  13. SDBlue

    I wonder IF she wins, will she move her family into the Governor’s mansion and put her kids in different schools in Pierre? Or will she stay in Watertown and not show up for work in Pierre like she doesn’t show up for work in D.C.

    Hope Billie Sutton’s team is reading JKC,Sr’s comment at 13:46. That needs to be used in an add.

  15. OldSarg

    You are all off topic and need to get back on topic instead of dragging this thread into a “bash fest” again. The topic is “If you can hear over that plaintive guitar”.

    Yes, I can hear a 100,000 vote lead for Noem in the race for governor without a vote cast.

  16. LA

    CEO = Completely Exhausted Owner?

  17. Debbo

    All the Pootiepublicans that are in races anywhere near close are putting their lying ads into overdrive now. They are panicking.

    538 has a Democratic House at 80% and several polls, including the latest Quinnipiac, show that Democrats might take the Senate too. Then Pootiepublicans will be crowding the prison cells. I love it when crooks get their just desserts. Bwahahahahahahaha!!!

  18. OldSarg

    Debbo is exactly right! All these lying Pootiepublicans are winning in place they have no right to win in. It’s as if more unenlightened people keep voting for those people we know are racist because they are and all. Debbo correctly quotes all the latest polls and they are the polls that led us to our victory in the presidential race, well could have if all the racist in the horrible country hadn’t thought we had no right to call everyone else racists who are racist. Me and Debbo have this down like an art! It’s kind of like finger painting in that we know what is right and what is wrong and the same crap we smeared all over out hands we are smearing on all of you that are not enlightened like me and Debbo you bastards!

    This is actually fun. I’ve never lived at this low of a level. I can look up and see the gutter. What a view!

    Harvest is soon to begin……TrumpTARIFFS Noem, Rounds ,Thune all support. Hope SD farmers have a plan B.

  20. Dana, Jenny, have we really killed the estate tax sob story? I might count that as a remarkable achievement!

  21. Rick

    “This is actually fun. I’ve never lived at this low of a level. I can look up and see the gutter. What a view!”

    What’s it like down there with Trump, OldSally?
