Senator Joni Ernst had a great fall in her Iowa town hall and the nation saw the first cracks in Humpty Dumpty. Her defense of the cuts in Medicaid to decrease the deficit rang hollow in that meeting place.

It is becoming clear to even the one-eyed kings in the kingdom of the blind that there will be no decrease in deficit but only a hide the money scheme to decrease taxes on a loophole content billionaire class that doesn’t pay significant taxes now. Church members tithe more of a percentage of their earnings to their congregations than billionaires give back to their country for humanitarian purposes.

“People will die,” a woman screamed. “We are all going to die,” Ernst replied in a monotone voice. To me, it was deja vu all over again as Yogi Berra stated. President Gerald Ford lost the 1976 Presidential election because of a New York Daily News headline to a bankrupt Big Apple pleading for federal aid. Ford To City: Drop Dead

The natural rejoinder that night should have been “Senator Ernst, Drop Dead! And offload Senator Grassley at a nursing home on the way.”
