“Republican” Senatorial Candidate Loves Violence, Mayhem, and Sedition.

Yet another proof of the difference between the two parties:
http://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2014/10/23/republican-senatorial-candidate-loves-violence-mayhem-and-sedition/

Source info at the link.

Joni Ernst, the Teapublican candidate for Senate in Iowa, is well known for her bloodlust and castration fetish (hint: if you are a male and find her on Tinder, DON’T SWIPE RIGHT. She’d love to “swipe” your wedding tackle).The fact that Iowans look like they’re gonna send this crazed, latter day cross between Lizzie Borden and Sweeney Todd to Washington is pretty damned revolting. But hey, what’s a little serial genital mutilation between friends, right?

Now, though, we can add sedition to the list of Joni’s criminal predilictions: she wants to use her gun to take over the government, and to get rid of Obamacare. Click that link there for the details:

“I have a beautiful little Smith & Wesson, 9 millimeter, and it goes with me virtually everywhere,” Ernst said at the NRA and Iowa Firearms Coalition Second Amendment Rally in Searsboro, Iowa. “But 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.”

Iowa, really? The “candidate” wants to kill, mutilate, and maim people she doesn’t like, by her own repeated admission. And you like her well enough to send this person, who wants to overthrow the government, to help RUN the government? No, Iowa, seriously, really?

Dafuq?

To invite the person loudly proclaiming "I am a suicide bomber" onto the bus.

To elect people who are promising to undo the very government they are trying to get elected into seems counterproductive to me.

Suicide bombers seem to fit their idea of a candidate.

This paranoid, delusional woman, who professes to hate our country's constitutionally elected government -- that would be the same country that she swore do defend as a member of the military -- now threatens to use a gun if she feels "threatened" by the duly elected government that was chosen by the voting majority.

So, how does this work... if she is elected and takes another oath of office to defend the Constitution, will her fingers be crossed, or cab she cross off everything except the 2nd Amendment? Do those of us who oppose her wacky views get free shots at her to make our displeasure known when she decides that, OUR "rights are no longer important"?
