Iowa state Sen. Joni Ernst, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate there, released an anti-government waste ad by comparing the ideas in Washington to the excrement found in a pig pen.
The new ad, released Wednesday, features Ernst standing on a pig farm talking about “too many politicians hogging, wasting…” and then Ernst is interrupted by a pig squealing.
“It’s time to stop spending money we don’t have and balance the budget,” Ernst said.
Earlier in the cycle Ernst released an ad where she argued her background growing up on a farm castrating pigs showed how she knew to cut government waste in Washington, D.C.
Watch the new ad below:

Another Sarah Palin wannabe…
Hopefully Braley can remind the good people of Iowa that Ernst will be allied with the folks who derailed the farm bill last year. You know, the “good” kind of pork.
Washington DC is full of shit. Unfortunately for Joni Ernst, it is the Republicans that are doing most of the shitting.
“It’s time to stop spending money we don’t have and balance the budget,”
Damn right, Joni! First we’ll start with those wasteful farm subsidies that pig farmers are bleeding us dry over and then we’ll start with Social Security and Medicare!
Joni?..Joni?
It’ll be overflowing with pig shit if she’s sent there.
