The Nature Of The Gop Wave In Iowa 2: No Gop Agenda! Many Gop Platitudes!

[mascale]

So subsequent the release of the Des Moines Register poll, with Ernst up 6 with 12% undecided: The reporting of the weekend debate in the Register did suggest mainly that Ernst was shy on substance, compared with Braley. Anyone can notice that there were lots of commentaries on the internet. The Politico summary actually highlighted issue differences. Among these, apparently important to Ernst, was whether or not Brayley had once sued his neighbor for letting the chickens wander into his yard(?)!
When pressed on the Koch Brothers funding of the Ernst campaign, somehow the point was missed in the Tea Party mind of Ernst. Ernst noted that Braley was actually talking to her--who is taking all the Koch Brothers money(?)! That was actually the problem, being addressed. Braley noted he was more in Support of the Obama Administration, to which he would owe nothing.

Everyone seems to like the fellow Grassley. Congressman Brayley did miss at least one Committee meeting, attending WWII veterans memorial. Ernst is a GOP free marketeer, with no clue that even two thousand years ago, the computing flaw still in place from then, didn't even work at the time. The rich get richer, the poor can't pay the mortgage--The rich houses all come tumbling on down. End of privatized savings and investments. Government Social Securty is actually a way to guarantee security in old age, and even a market with spending people in it. The Old Testament has all kinds of Special Deals for the poor. Ernst can't even suggest a current LIving or Minimum Wage.

At least there is clarity, in the liberal Democratic Party campaign, pressing an agenda likely even retiring Senator Harkin could support(?)!

(Many TeePee Party, now in Iowa, need to know how to castrate neighborhood roosters, even(?)! With Sarah Palin, the matter was. . . .Moose, as Vice President of the United States(?)!)

The old testament doesn't say anything about food stamps or welfare. Lol.

Actually the Old Testament says a great deal about food stamps and welfare, and even public housing and clothing. That is apparent to Western Civilization, if not to the Tea Party, GOP, Koch Brothers, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Boehner, Paul, Paul, et. al. brand--which is a lot, of brand. The Communists seem to have had trouble with it, and now Putin's Russians and the Communist Chinese seem to have trouble with it. In China, there is at least a movement away from the excesses GOP supports, which includes denigration of the concept of paying customers in the stores. The Old Testament actually knew about spending, and even of the money!

Exodus 22:25–27 (NRSV)
25 If you lend money to my people, to the poor among you, you shall not deal with them as a creditor; you shall not exact interest from them. 26 If you take your neighbor’s cloak in pawn, you shall restore it before the sun goes down; 27 for it may be your neighbor’s only clothing ...

(Old Testament maybe not too thrilled about castrated pigs(?)!)

Sigh. Before this goes totally off-topic with another inane diatribe about religion - the point is - Ernst is taking about the concerns of the people of her state and not what another Inside the Beltway politician thinks.

All politics is local and this, along with other races, is proving that.

Rep. Braley pointed out that Beltway Regs that Ernst seemed believe had passed, actually did not. Ernst suggested that a law enabling prosecution in the matter of abortion was not in the local politics, Ernst was for: Is not about a candidate expressing local politics and interests. Mostly, there is a genuine and apparent inability to read, do legislation, and any investigative background on matters such as climate change. Nowhere in any reports of any issue is there any indication of how anything the Republicans support would affect Local Iowa.

That goes to the matter of whether or not Brayley could get an opinion, of a local matter, at all from Ernst: A Koch Brothers funded, GOP candidate.

What is there to turn out for, only a few weeks ago, if anyone is planning to vote for Ernst? It would make better sense, to maybe milk a pig, after all(?)!

(A lot of politics is local, especially, in matters of turnout, starting later on, next month.)
