Oh, excellent! I just saw a pushback ad slamming Ernst by using Palin

trying to sell Ernst as the answer to America's problems. Palin saying that we need Ernst. It was great! I hope they run it frequently. I have to catch the name of the group because I will donate to keep that one up and running.

You have to ID those looney names with their form of insanity as a label, too many names on the funny farm to remember.

Labels are important- a joke to illustrate-

This Scottish farmer walks into the neighborhood pub, and orders a whiskey.

"Ye see that fence over there?" he says to the bartender. "Ah built it with me own two hands! Dug up the holes with me shovel, chopped doon the trees for the posts by me ownself, laid every last rail! But do they call me 'McGregor the Fence-Builder?' No..."

He gulps down the whiskey and orders another. "Ye see that pier on the loch?" He continues, "Ah built it me ownself, too. Swam oot into the loch to lay the foondations, laid doon every single board! But do they call me 'McGregor the Pier-Builder?' No."

"But ye fuck ONE sheep ..."

Uploaded on Jun 23, 2014
A coalition of environmental groups including the League of Conservation Voters, Sierra Club and Environmental Defense Action Fund today announced a new nearly $1 million effort to defeat Joni Ernst and elect Bruce Braley to the U.S. Senate in November. To kick off the coalition effort, LCV is launching a television ad highlighting extremists like Sarah Palin and the Koch Brothers are supporting Ernst so she can enact their extreme agenda. The ad, "Promises," starts running this week in the Cedar Rapids and Des Moines media markets.

When I checked it out, I saw they had spent $500,000 for ads for Joni. So happy someone is helping. Bruce facebook has completely been taken over by the wingers.
