Grand Forks Herald Worships John Hoeven

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

This is got to be one of the most sycophant passages the Herald has ever put in one of their editorials.

Gov. John Hoeven has shown himself to be a skilled steward of state government. You don’t inherit a state with no budget reserve and then lead it to a position where it enjoys not only a record surplus, but also below-average unemployment and above-average growth in personal income and the Gross State Product, without knowing what you’re doing.

Right, the guy is so all powerful (in the Herald editorial board room) that he can raise the price of oil to unheard of heights. And when he should be resting from that notable accomplishment he did a bang up job raising the price of farm commodities to record levels as well.
Wow, I never knew that the guy was oh so powerful that he controls world markets. Maybe he’s one of those 92 degree Masons or whatever that rule the world from the Tri-Lateral Commission or whatever it is.
You have to wonder if the big-wigs at the Herald are trying to outdo The Onion.

    What with the ‘budget surplus’, perhaps Forum Communications envisions itself in line for some sort of ‘bail-out at the state level?
    Or. maybe he really is Herr Uber Hoeven!

    He came into office and signed legislation which caused married residents with children, in the private sector to pay MORE in state income taxes that federal income taxes!
    He is fiscally incompetent!

    Yeah, kind of like the Rooster taking credit for the sun coming up, we have John Hoeven.

    I don’t know for sure, but it seems that one pocket of the Marcil empire does benefit from good relations with the various government leaders.

    Well, since when has John Hoeven cared about working families? All he’s cared about in his career is advancing the lifestyles of snivel servants.

    What ticks me off is Hoeven taking credit for budget surpluses that have nothing to do with him.

    He’s done nothing for the economy but grow government, keep taxes high and spend money. His economic development schemes are sketchy at best and failures at worse.

    We’re lucky that we have the oil industry in the state or we’d be in some rough times right now.
