"SNIP..........


Most political ads don’t knock your socks off, but this one? Buckle up, buttercup. Meet MJ Hegar, she’s running for Congress in Texas District 31 and she’s just dropped a masterpiece of an introductory ad. This ad is gonna “take off,” just like her career as an Air Force pilot. Hit the play button and see why MJ Hegar stands out from the crowd.

What ever you do, please do not get in her way. You will be knocked into taking a week of painkillers.

because, back in the early 70's, we worked so hard to open doors for women.
It still took too damn long, but I am overjoyed to see how far she has come. And that she will not be the only woman in Congress when she is elected is a given, by now.
