Heitkamp is toast
« on: October 17, 2018, 05:04:50 AM »
Can you get less then zero votes ??  .Sen Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND, and in this case ND really does stand for Negligent Discharge) seems to want to find out.

Her campaign puts out an ad which outed women as sexual assault survivors, even some who were NOT and used their names without their knowledge or permission.  

That's a Federal No-No.  (using names without permission in a campaign ad).

Not to mention outing some survivors of Domestic Violence, Sexual Abuse/Harassment, and Rape.

Even better is that the list includes women who have NOT been victims.  They have to go explain to everyone they know that No, they are not victims.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

How *expletive deleted*ing stupid can they be?


And yes, that is a challenge.

I'd like to see all the named women get together sue her into to the ground, as well as make the appropriate criminal complaints.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

There have been reports of a lawsuit in the works.

It's not often that a campaign releases an Oct. Surprise against itself.   :rofl:

So since a woman ['s campaign] said they were assaulted,  and the women said they weren't, which #her do we #believe?

This is getting very confusing.
