Blog detectives are searching for confirmation of a quote attributed to news anchor Brian Williams. It started after a rumor Williams was overheard talking about a female soldier in Iraq he had heard about.
During a commercial break Williams was reportedly heard talking on the set about a safe rear area female with a helmet made entirely of hair. "She walks around in the sand with bread bags over her boots. She is going places someday. Maybe politics?"
The comment is believed to be about freshman US Senator Joni Ernst, R-Iowa. In the photo below she is asking the crowd "do you know why male pigs don't like these two hands?"

But I'm so full of cold meds (thrid day of it) and regular medication, I'm not sure yet the point came across as a jab at Joni or not.

Seems to me she was a farm girl or something.
I don't know much (or really care) about her. Just another teabagger jackwagon.
