Oh, Iowa, think twice

Are you really preparing to put a nitwit like Jodi Ernst in the United States Senate to represent you? The woman who has said she’d use a gun to protect herself from the very government she hopes to be elected to?

“I do believe in the right to carry, and I believe in the right to defend myself and my family — whether it’s from an intruder, or whether it’s from the government, should they decide that my rights are no longer important,” Ernst said at the [2012 NRA] rally.

Great. Most people take disputes to courts in this country, but not this pig-castrating, Agenda 21-bashing, Balanced Budget Amendment-loving, entitlement program-slashing right-wing buffoon.

Iowa takes itself and its political standing in this country very seriously, what with its steak fries and early caucuses and so on. It’s at risk of making itself a laughingstock if it votes for a lightweight like this.
