An Iowa Democratic congressional candidate’s foul mouth reportedly has gotten her barred from speaking at a local fundraiser next month. The Des Moines Register reports that a Polk County Democratic Party committee voted not to offer a speaking invitation to Heather Ryan for their upcoming steak fry, where several members of Congress and other candidates from across the state will speak. “The party that tells women to sit down and shut up is not supposed to be the Democratic Party,” she said. She described her views as “slightly left of Jesus” and said she wants sensible gun reform and universal health care. The party chairman told The Des Moines Register that the candidate could still attend the steak fry – and could speak at other events.
