Cspan Stephanie Herseth swearing in

[JI7]

this is really nice to watch. there is a lot of applause and cheering going on. seems many of the republicans are not there. i guess those republicans are the "taliban" wing of the republican party that tim johnson had referred to. we really need to make sure herseth keeps that seat as does daschle in the senate.

4. tradegy??

That is so typical of the general attitude here in SD, which I for one am SICK of.

Why do the SD people continue to persecute the Lakota (Sioux)? We took the Black Hills from them one of the richest gold ore mines in the Western hemisphere (hence, the term "indian-giver").

You are one narrow minded indivdual if you believe in your heart you are a "good christian". I encourage you to study JC's sermon on the mount & practice it, your soul needs much light.

they were showing other members going up to her for hugs and kisses and i believe kucinich was there. it was really nice. she just got there but all the democrats seem really close and happy.
