Rep. Steve King Dies, Comes Back as a Factory Farm Animal

Republican Congressman Steve King — self-righteous Biblehumper and the factory farming industry's biggest prostitute — is spewing fire and brimstone again.  This time his hatred is directed at gays, “cohabiters” and divorced people.  He said:

“I’ll just say that what was a sin 2,000 years ago is a sin today, and people that were condemned to hell 2,000 years ago, I don’t expect to meet them should I make it to heaven. So let’s stick with that principle.”

Aside from regurgitating the Old Testament, Steve King's other mission in life is to derail every legislative attempt to protect animals' rights.  Regulations to protect factory farm livestock against crowded filthy conditions, laws against dog fighting and cockfighting — you name it, Steve King is against it.  His most recent blowjob for the factory farm industry was an amendment to the Farm Bill which would have overturned practically every state and local ordinance against animal cruelty.  The Steve King Amendment failed, but he'll keep trying.

Steve King going to Heaven?!?  He'll be reincarnated.  See below for an exclusive glimpse into Steve King's next incarnation.  (That's him on the right, third row.)

Ding Dong, the Farm Bill is DEAD!!!

Too many Teabirther amendments have sunk the federal once-every-five-years Farm BillGood.  It had turned into a Christmas tree for every tea-drooling inbred puke to tack on every imaginable amendment.

Most importantly, the Steve King Amendment is dead.  Unfortunately the author of this amendment is still alive, but the Steve King Karma Watch continues.

As you may know — not that the mainstream “media” has ever bothered to mention it — the Steve King Amendment would have overturned dozens of state laws mandating humane treatment for farm animals, and hundreds of local ordinances prohibiting dog fighting and cockfighting.

The linked article doesn’t mention the Steve King Amendment; neither does any other article that I found.  Most of the media coverage was devoted to the teatard amendment to take away food stamps from those lowly riffraff who only work two jobs instead of three or four.

A lot of Democrats voted against the Farm Bill, and so did a lot of rightwing Republicans.  The Club for Growth and Heritage Action campaigned against it because of the overall expense of the bill.  Works for me.  A broken clock is still right twice a day.

Steve King was unavailable for comment, probably because he had just finished sucking off a room full of factory farm lobbyists, and talking would have been a little, uhh, awkward.
