Christie trying to stroke the Iowa voters before the primary?

Good work by Steve King and Branstad getting him to veto it and bring up the issue. King got the Missouri Dem AG to sue over an egg law.
What he objects to, he said, is an agenda driven by the Humane Society of the United States and its president, Wayne Pacelle. “He is not your local animal shelter guy. He has a political agenda and his agenda is to ban the ownership of animals and to take meat off the table of everybody in America.”
A six pack a day is all they ask..
Any time someone ticks an animal rights type, I’m for it,
but still won’t vote for the guy.
Liberals think that your chicken, beef, and pork in made in a factory. The idiots have no idea how a farm is managed. Wait till they find out where veal comes from and how calves are penned up.
One word. IOWA.
Sows accidentally kill piglets but they don’t need to be in the crates for too long.
Man, Christie really taking on the big issues.

Did Joni weigh in on porcine comforts?
Grew up raising hogs.
If you don’t put the sows in crates, they tend to eat their young. If you allow them to roam freely, the other sows will eat them.
They seem less stressed in crates during farrowing also. Even our “war devil” sows, calmed right down when we put them on the trailer and moved them to the farrowing house. Getting those monsters out was another issue. The sows would bite, charge, and throw you around. I had one get her nose under my panel and toss me on top of the crate. Another took a chunk out of leg while trampling me.
That is why I became an engineer.
