Because of your comments and the many times you read these articles, they are the best of the best at Dakota Voice last week.

In case you missed one the first time around or just want to read it again, this is your big chance!

Interview with Kenneth Gladney, Man Assaulted by Union Thugs at Town Hall – An interview with Kenneth Gladney, the man assaulted by union thugs at a St. Louis health care town hall meeting last night. Ken talks about how the incident started, the racial slurs used against him by the union heavy, and how he was hit in the face and kicked by several union members.

Chaos at Carnahan Town Hall – Union thugs came out to defend the socialist takeover of health care in America last night. They hurled racial slurs at a black conservative and assaulted him. Many people were turned away at the door, while others–who looked like union people–were allowed in. Still, inside the town hall meeting in St. Louis, Rep. Russell Carnahan heard from Americans who will not stand for their freedom being robbed by the government.

Cash for Clunkers: Your Taxpayer Dollars Up in Smoke – Watch your taxpayer dollars go up in smoke as perfectly good “clunkers” are destroyed on the altar of global warming hysteria in the “Cash for Clunkers” ripoff. This unconstitutional scheme takes taxpayer money to bribe people to trade in perfectly good cars, which are then destroyed as you see in this video–all an insane waste.

Rep. Steny Hoyer Encounters Raw Patriotism – Once again a Washington socialist has wandered into contact with the public and found that not everyone is happy to see their way of life threatened and their Constitution sold out. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) found out that some Americans know a liar when they hear one.

Union Thugs to Defend Socialist Takeover of Health Care - Union thugs say want to silence the outrage of patriotic Americans at congressional town hall meetings. Unions have long been allied with Leftist government, but the unions stand to get a good haul of the taxpayer loot if socialized medicine is forced on the American people. If the goons from the unions actually do come out hoping to intimidate, they might just be surprised when the freedom-loving American people push back. Freedom is worth fighting for.

Health Secretary Sebelius Tells Union Thugs: ‘Keep doing what you’re doing’ – President Obama’s Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius must be happy with the job the SEIU union thugs did on Kenneth Gladney in St. Louis last night because she held a conference call with SEIU members this afternoon, telling them, “Keep doing what you’re doing.” Surely she knew about the beating perpetrated by SEIU members last night…

Five Good Reasons Cash for Clunkers is a Clunker – These are five big reasons why the unconstitutional ripoff known as “Cash for Clunkers” is a bad idea that will ultimately prove yet another government failure.

Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler’s Fall Caught on Video – Video of Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler taking a fall while playing at the Buffalo Chip Campground at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota.

Florida the Latest State to Consider Rejecting Federal Health Care Scheme – Florida is looking to become the latest state to tell the federal government to butt-out of health care. Several states have moved to re-assert their Tenth Amendment rights and powers in the past eight months, with more doing so all the time. The days of socialist trampling of our Constitution may be numbered.

Who Should Pay for the Exercise of Your Rights? - Are other Americans obligated to pay for your access to your rights? For instance, should other Americans be forced to buy you a gun to fulfill your Second Amendment right, or buy you a newspaper to fulfill your First Amendment right? Are other Americans obligated to pay for a theoretical “right” to “free” health care?
