Progress Iowa, a left-wing political organization, releases RightWingJoni.com to highlight Ernst’s conservative positions
DES MOINES – Progress Iowa on Wednesday congratulated Joni Ernst on her victory in the US Senate primary, and released a new website to highlight her positions, at RightWingJoni.com. Ernst is running for the US Senate, and won tonight’s Republican primary by focusing on her extreme positions, such as abolishing the federal minimum wage.
“Right Wing Joni won her primary by catering to the most conservative elements of the Republican party,” said Matt Sinovic, executive director of Progress Iowa. “RightWingJoni.com will continue to educate Iowans about her dangerous positions, whether it’s abolishing the federal minimum wage, privatizing Social Security, or breaking the law by refusing to fund our schools.”
Advertisements for RightWingJoni.com will appear in a variety of online advertisements, including on the websites of the Des Moines Register and Radio Iowa, beginning this evening. RightWingJoni.com will also be updated throughout the summer and fall, to educate Iowans about the positions of Joni Ernst, including the following:
Right Wing Joni wants the Minimum Wage to be $0
When asked about whether she would support raising the minimum wage, Right Wing Joni has repeatedly said she would not be in favor. But she didn’t stop there — instead, she claims that the federal government should not even set a minimum wage, suggesting that the true ‘minimum’ should be none at all. [Source: MSNBC, 5/30/14]
Right Wing Joni wants to privatize Social Security
Iowa seniors deserve to know they will have the retirement security they’ve earned by investing in Social Security over the years. Right Wing Joni would put that security at risk by privatizing Social Security, letting Wall Street dictate what kind of retirement seniors are allowed to have. [Source: MSNBC, 5/30/14]
Right Wing Joni refused to fund Iowa schools
Iowa law requires school funding to be set one year in advance, to prevent layoffs and allow districts to plan effectively. Right Wing Joni broke the law by opposing school funding, even though Iowa ranks 37th in per-pupil spending among states. [Source: Project Vote Smart]
Right Wing Joni missed more than 100 votes in the Iowa Senate
Casting a vote on behalf of constituents is the top job for any elected official. While on the campaign trail catering to extreme factions of the Republican party, Right Wing Joni missed more than 100 votes in the Iowa Senate. She was not present to vote for school funding, human trafficking, elder abuse, and radon testing in schools, among others. [Source: Des Moines Register, 5/31/14]

It’s looking better everyday….. Braley slamming Iowa farmers and an idiot with the named Iowa Sucks supporting him.. I won’t even try to explain the difference between a static vs. dynamic economies and how it relates to that idiots post and how wrong he is. Poorer vs. Richer what an idiot.
Joni wants the poor poorer, the rich richer and more powerful and wants her religion to be part of government. Jesus is on her team, it seems. Dollars to donuts ole Joni has a closet full of skeletons but I suspect she has no problem judging you.
I would love to take a look in your closet.
I never killed anyone like you did Maybe.
My conscious is clear.
?? Some sort of meditation? :0)
lololol that was funny. Lets just say sanctioned.
Not sanctioned by Jesus.
The Bible says Thou shalt not kill, translation for that meant murder. Murder and war are 2 different things.
No, it says thou shalt not kill. You went against God on this one. You’re going to another place when you die.
I can tell that you are a democrat, they are wrong about everything. I can also tell that you are not a Christian because they know what the bible says.
I know you’re no Christian because you’re a killer. I know your a big drug user because you told us all the drugs your on. I know you’re a liar because I’ve never voted for a democrat.
And most of all I know you have no life because all you do is post nonsense here. A non working troll.
are you going to spit in my face and call me baby killer too?
Oh my, these negative comments about her sounds like a war on women.
Sure, the Democrats are excited about facing this teabagger. In November, the voters will realize one conservative nutjob from the party of failure (Steve King) is enough and Braley will easily hold on to that Democratic senate seat.
Anyone who believes anything “Progress Iowa” says need their head examined. Just a bunch of left wing idiots.
LVS, not to play devils advocate but the right thinks the left is crazy and the left think the right is crazy. The only difference is the right is RIGHT and the left is delirious.
HA!
Interesting, both LVS and maybe “claim” to be independents.
However, neither one of them would fly on an airplane, unless it had two right wings.
I do get a kick out of their mindless Far Right wing hysteria though.
(And yes, I do realize that using “mindless” and “Far Right wing” in the same sentence is being redundant.)
But I digress…. what does that reminds me of?
……Oh, ya, that reminds me of sheep.
How appropriate!
🙂
The last plane I flew on a plane it had a left wing. I am not pro right wing, I am just anti left wing. Like the old saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
The SHEEPLE are those who voted for Obama (the great liar in the White House) and for Ragan. They just keep on drinking the KOOL Aid. Damn Communist.
“However, neither one of them would fly on an airplane, unless it had two right wings.
Exactly! LOL These two are part of the uneducated blue collar class who always vote against their own interests. They want government out of our lives, except if you have cancer and use pot, then they want the government all up in your house with masks and guns.
@maybe-The left is so stupid they can’t even understand the proof that is in front of them. I wish we could declare Iowa a Independent country and throw them all out. About half the Republicans could go too.
I know that they say we need more than a 2 party system, I say get rid of all the parties and just vote the person.
@maybe-I agree. Also, have you noticed that when the liberals have no defense the always resort to personal attacks. Really shows their lack of intelligence.
The left wing resorts to personal attacks. Let’s see, the left wing are: sheeple, communists, kool aid drinkers, left wing idiots, stupid, lack intelligence. In your 100 words or so, you managed to throw out all those personal attacks yet not once did you say why this article is wrong. And Ernst wants to privatize your SS. Do you really want the right wing Wall Streeters managing your money? They have done such a good job managing and policing themselves. Why not give them more?
My sources say that the economy won’t even make it to the election, we will see.
@bo-Saying that about liberals is not a personal attack. I named no names so it is a blanket true statement. Different than naming someone. If it makes you feel any better, I feel the same way about a lot of Republicans.
Speaking of “Dirty Harry”–read Is the U.S. Being Colonized by Red China at trevorloudon.com These economic development deals using taxpayer money especially New York’s China City where they won’t say if Americans can live in the city is unsettling. Maybe someone should ask if the Clear Lake development deal is using any EB-5 money
Bring on tax and ruin the country Braley. At this point I’m pretty sure the American people would rather have anybody other than Dirty Harry as the majority leader in the Senate. Have to see how many illegal voters and intellectually challenged people will vote for Braley. People of Iowa wake up. A so called liberal in Iowa is a right wing nut on each coast. Think of your kids and grand kids when you vote not just the next “free” stuff the democrats are offering.
