publication of prior posting

For what it's worth, my prior posting here, ("a crunch cometh" has now (finally) been published in slightly edited form in the September 26, 2012 Native Sun News.

1) Congress recessed until after the election without the House bringing the farm bill to a vote.

2) Kristi Noem stated that she does not believe in human caused climate change.

3) Kristi Noem attacked Matt Varilek for having advocated "cap and trade" carbon policies.

4) Matt Varilek replied that while human caused climate change is a fact he does not necessarily advocate "cap and trade" carbon taxes to address the problem.
