Much Ado about Nothing

South Dakota politics is turning into a real Shakespearean play;

Count Claudio falls in love with Hero, the daughter of his host. Hero’s cousin Beatrice (a confirmed spinster) and Benedict (an eternal bachelor) are each duped into believing the other is in love with them. Claudio is deceived by a malicious plot and denounces Hero as unchaste before they marry.

Besides the obvious jokes about Noem’s supposed affair with a total dirt bag, all you have to do is look at a little history and you can predict about anything that goes on in Pierre and Sioux Falls.

OF COURSE A TASK FORCE WAS COMING WITH LENIN’S TOMB AT THE ZOO

I feel sorry for the journalists that have to cover this crap.
