Congressman Steve King tries to make a joke about China's alleged treatment of Muslims. He said the Chinese are sterilizing Muslim women and making them eat pork.
"That's the only part of that I agree with," King said. "Everyone should eat pork." https://t.co/oyEsiq9GBh

"sterilizing Muslim women and making them eat pork."


WTF?

1. I wonder how much he gets from the National Pork Producers Council...

...and, more interestingly, whether they think it was money well spent.

2. Voters who support Neanderthals like King only

serve to reinforce my opinion that there are a whole lot of Americans who face a serious challenge every morning figuring out which shoe goes on which foot.

3. But wait, this is a retread from King...

From the politico article

Snip-Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) said Friday that he doesn’t want Somali Muslims working at meat-packing plants in his district because they want consumers of pork to be sent to hell.

In a Breitbart News radio interview, the eight-term congressman, known for his inflammatory anti-immigrant rhetoric, said his views were shaped by a conversation with Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), whom he called “the lead Muslim in Congress.”

Snip-Snip-"“I don’t want people doing my pork that won’t eat it, let alone hope I go to hell for eating pork chops,” he concluded.

4. Poor Stevie Snowflake!

He apparently thinks Muslims have the same vision of God as do his evangelical friends, Muslims hoping people go to hell for eating pork chops. King is just fine with Christians who hope Muslims (and not just Muslims) go to hell for not having the proper appreciation for Jesus.

Come on, Iowa. Be best.
