Cravaack announces new staffer to lead district offices

From the Rep’s D.C. office:

(Washington, DC) – Today, U.S. Congressman Chip Cravaack (MN-8) announced the hiring of Sheldon Anderson as his new District Director. The District Director position manages all staff and activities in the Congressman’s district offices.

“Sheldon Anderson is a great addition to my staff and I am pleased he’ll be assisting me as I strive to provide excellent constituent services to the people of the Eighth District,” said Cravaack. “Sheldon knows northeastern Minnesota well. His father worked as a pipe-fitter in mines on the Iron Range, and he has served as Mayor of Wyoming and as a private sector appointee to Governor Pawlenty’s ‘Corrections Strategic Management Operations Advisory Task Force.’ Sheldon has also been a small business owner for the past 20 years so he understands how important they are to the economic health of Minnesota.”

Currently, Mr. Anderson is President of Capital Investigations, a company that provides security and investigative services. He will be based out of Congressman Cravaack’s North Branch office, serving as the Congressman’s chief representative in the Eighth District.

Bret, I would not be surprised if you and I have already been investigated by the new spook -I mean, staffer.

Out of his North Branch office

really should say..out of the only office in MN he has open, in North Branch, four hours away from Grand Marais, and two hours away from the largest city in his district.

I also see he is promoting an "arts competition" on his congressional page, for high schoolers... which is absolutely rich as he is one of the wankers lined up behind stripping all funding for public arts education.

There's something about being represented out of the TC suburbs that's like not being represented at all.

I was having lunch with two new friends who live in the Twin Cities, and our new Congressman's name came up. One of my companions said, "You do realize, you people just elected a congressman who lives in the Twin Cities, don't you?" I responded, "I didn't vote for the man, don't blame me."

I predict, knowing at least one *excellent* candidate who's already throwing his hat in the ring, that Mr. Cravaack will be a one-termer.

Claire, you assume that you're important enough to investigate.  Don't flatter yourself.

The Good Servant Cravaack is from Ohio, married a Minnesota girl, spent a little time in the Armed Forces (enough to warrant his Sleep Apnea {sp?} disability for life) and likes fo fly planes.

Trolls or Sock-Puppets? You be the judge. Here's the Guardian re: some online Puppetry, but of course these puppets are only used to fight terrorists.

I met Artis once. He is kind of a weird guy, actually. Not weird weird, but like a high being weird. The guy sees life in a completely different perspective.

I hope Claire predicted that Jimmy would whip Chip, because wiping him would be gross.

And then were your friends like, "Oh no you di'int!  You go girl!"

No, Paul, I predicted that Oberstar "woud wipe" Chip-A-Hoy. Because I believe in creative forms of written expression.

Ironic that Jimmy is relegated to wiping the Chinese now that he has no one to wipe him. Hmmm, what's next? I've got a good guess. Maybe a return favor from Red Star in the form of a high paying B.O.D. position on the new Cirrus? I smell a ponzi scheme of epic proportions. Damn, am I glad Jimmy isn't in our woodshed anymore. Having Chip clean up won't be a guarantee of getting rid of all the roaches, but it's a start! The light switch has been turned on...
