#BreadBags: Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa gives Twitter lots of fodder in State of the Union response
Freshman Republican Sen. Joni Ernst from Iowa unintentionally fed the Twitter beast on Tuesday night in her response to the State of the Union speech, all but guaranteeing a Saturday Night Live parody.
It began with her talking about wearing bread bags around her feet when she was a little girl. (Its a Midwestern thing, folks. Just stop it.)
Very quickly, people started tweeting photos of their feet wrapped in bread bags.
And #BreadBags became a hashtag.
A smattering of reactions to how she said what she said, most of them delivered at the hashtag, #JoniErnst:
"We had to use our bread bags for mittens".
"Next time it snows or rains, I'm gonna try wearing bread bags like Joni Ernst once did".
"I was waiting for her to ask me for my account number and something about my patronage being important to her."
"No doubt #JoniErnst just made #LorneMichaels a VERY happy man!! Looking forward to @nbcsnl Saturday night!"
"Did anyone else expect #JoniErnst to say 'But wait, there's more'!"
In the spirit of the Presidents we are the United States of America sentiments, well second this tweet from @ReganWV:
"A good #SOTU response is rarely seen. It's a rough gig. No one should demonize, degrade, or insult #JoniErnst for her sincerely-held views."
O.K., but well still be watching Saturday Night Live this weekend.

Yes, Joni Ernst seems to be all about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps (in her case the bootstraps were farm subsidies provided to her family).There is a story out today that the bread bags woman who game the rebuttal has received $400,000 in government assistance. http://www.inquisitr.com/1777070/joni-ernst-on-welfare-gop-senators-family-took-460000-in-taxpayer-handouts/
I'm no friend of the right. That's not what that says. It says her father got $38K in subsidies over the course of many years and her uncle got a few hundred thousand. That's not her. And many experts, right and left, will tell you those subsidies are necessary if you want affordable vegetables to always be there. That is not "wasteful spending." I don't see any hypocrisy, at least related to the Sentinal piece.There is a story out today that the bread bags woman who game the rebuttal has received $400,000 in government assistance. http://www.inquisitr.com/1777070/joni-ernst-on-welfare-gop-senators-family-took-460000-in-taxpayer-handouts/
