Minutes later, Romney returned again, this time carrying a large bag of beef jerky that he said he had personally received from jerky guru Jack Link.

"Here you go," Romney said, as he handed out gigantic sticks of beef—identified as Jack Link's "Sasquatch" size. Reaching into the bag as he approached Sam Youngman, a Reuters reporter, he pulled out a miniature "All American Beef and Cheese" pack—about half the size of the pieces of jerky he had doled out to other reporters. Glancing at the package and then at Youngman, Romney laughed.

"OOH, sorry," Romney said, letting out a "ha ha ha."

Reporters laughed and exchanged glances. Had the Republican presidential nominee just made a "size" joke?

A moment later, Romney returned, handing Youngman a bigger stick from the bag. "Thanks governor," Youngman replied. "I had jerky envy."

Romney burst out laughing and returned to his seat.

However, Eric Holder didn’t seem to get the joke. His investigative task force discovered that the jerky Romney was freely handing out was made from 100 percent Angus beef. Angus cattle, as you know, are black in color.

Dog whistle!

If you’re going to hand out jerky to reporters be sure to hand out that chicken jerky from China. Save the American stuff for your friends.
