Castrator Elected to U.S. Senate

The State of Iowa has a brand new United States Senator. Joni Ernst, a lieutenant colonel in the Iowa Army National Guard who packs a pistol in her purse. She ran an ad boasting about how she castrates hogs, and vowed to do the same in Washington, D.C. (presumably metaphorically). Her Castration Ad is credited with enabling her victory.

Birdbrain reactionary Sarah Palin, the GOP vice presidential nominee in 2012, endorsed her thusly,

apropos of the ad: “It’s like, whoa, nobody’s going to push her around.” Or she'll cut their nuts off, I guess. Or maybe shoot them off with that pistol she's packing.

In her ad, Ernst claimed her gelding skills were applicable to Washington politics, where she vowed to “make ’em squeal!”

So in effect Ernst is saying I know how to slice off testicles, and I'm gonna do some slicing in Washington, you bet!

Iowa must be very very weird.

She's the first woman elected to a statewide office in Iowa, ever.

Maybe she got 1% of the male vote and 99% of the female vote? Or maybe there are a lot of twisted male submissives in Iowa?
