Make Them Squeal

I have had occasion to remark that Republicans, as a group, should never, ever talk about sex. It should be their Twelfth Commandment.

 Today, I'm making an exception for Iowa senate candidate Joni Ernst:


I am sure you will agree with those who say that that is the best opening line in a campaign commercial, ever.

I don't know why the YouTube link has been taken down, but Slate has a link that works.

    I can't imagine why. For those who missed it, she opens by saying that as a child she used to castrate hogs. Now, she wants to do the same thing for porkbarrel spending in Washington.

    I have a sneaking suspicion that a lot of these "Removed By User" vids were actually yanked by YT. Any geeks out there want to look into this?

    On topic, this is the kind of attitude we need in our Representatives! :D

    OK she brags about castrating hogs and boasts that she's going to do the same thing in Washington.

    That's gross and nasty. Unfortunately, I guess people have to abuse animals but we don't have to glory in it and use it as a model for other behaviour.
