A willing militia member? Oh, no. No responsible leader should be encouraging violence against our government.

She may not have gone to Arizona to kill federal officers along with the other 5000 militia members, but, she endorses them.

...“I have a beautiful little Smith & Wesson, 9mm, (click here) and it goes with me virtually everywhere,” Ernst told a crowd at an NRA and Iowa firearms coalition second amendment rally in Searsboro, Iowa, in a speech flagged on Thursday by the Huffington Post. “But I do believe in the right to carry, and I believe in the right to defend myself and my family – whether it’s from an intruder, or whether it’s from a government, should they decide that my rights are no longer important.”...

That is the statement one will hear on Beck, Lambaugh and any number of FOX radio hosts. That is the statement. Nearly identical. The callers always assert their right to protect their families, etc.... They are the survival groups awaiting the loss of electrical organization throughout any power grid and willing to shoot the zombie invasion. I have no doubt the extremists will back her in much of her intentions in gun rights and otherwise.

I don't believe there is any explanation necessary. She has the dog whistle and everyone knows it, especially at the NRA convention. She's another extremist. For about women's rights and I am sure she dislikes the dependent, the entitlements and any form of compassion to those less fortunate Americans. You know, "The Takers."


Iowa is not a particularly gun-friendly state, but it does have a culture of recreational hunting and relatively unrestrictive gun laws. Guns & Ammo magazine placed Iowa 38th in its 2014 rankings of the best states for gun owners (Arizona was first).
Ernst has a two-decade career with the US army reserves and the National Guard. She has previously featured her affection for firearms in her closely fought race with Democratic nominee Bruce Braley to replace retiring senator Tom Harkin. An early campaign commercial featured footage of her firing a handgun at a range....

Remember "I'm not a witch." She was the Republican candidate that always ran for her own purposes in Delaware against then Senator Joe Biden. Just because Eanst is with the reserves and National Guard that does not separate her from the militias seeking to kill federal employees in Arizona. 

A large number of that Arizona group were former members of the military. So was the Oklahoma bomber. There is no line that separates the responsible former military from the irresponsible. If Mrs. Ernst is willing to stand before a convention of NRA and state she would also kill a government's representative, she is aligning herself with violent people.

A legitimate Senatorial candidate would jump at the chance to meet with a prominent editorial boards. This is such a joke. Six years. This woman is going to be in office for six years and she need the support of editors and media. She needs the people of Iowa to feel secure in her leadership, advocacy and representation of there needs. She is a another right wing extremist that won't have anything to do with "The Lame Stream Media."

Former secretary of state Hillary Clinton (click here) on Wednesday knocked Iowa Republican Senate candidate Joni Ernst for failing to meet with newspaper editorial boards in her state.
"You have a lot to be proud of in this state. You test your candidates," Clinton said during a campaign event for Democrat Bruce Braley. She added: "They have to be willing answer the tough questions, which Bruce has been willing to do and his opponent has not. It truly seems like it should be disqualifying in Iowa of all states to avoid answering questions."
Last week, Ernst, a state senator, canceled her meeting with state's biggest paper, the Des Moines Register. According to a campaign official, she did so because she believed the paper's editorial board had shown a bias against her in editorials over the past two months....

She did appear with Palin. That's right the Castrator and Chief. She is endorsed by "ShePAC" another Republican Super PAC (click here). That is what the meeting is below. Palin signing placards for Ernst. 

Speaking of placards, everyone has their's out on corners nearly everywhere in North Carolina, where is Senator Hagan's? Yard signs. I know they are unsightly, but, everyone has them.
