As Twitchy reported, Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa stirred up a small-scale controversy Thursday when he tweeted that he’d hit a deer with his car. Grassley said he assumed the deer was killed, but a concerned few wanted to know for sure. We’ll give Grassley credit for addressing his constituents, but it seems the senator has changed his story.
Two days after the incident, Grassley is claiming that his Prius was “attacked” by a “dear.” These details just don’t add up. Are we getting into Kennedy territory here?
Chuck Grassley drives a prius?!?!

@jryanlaw I’m leery of both Grassley claims.A member of the GOP in a Prius?Attack deer?Sounds like a cover-up.

If chuck grassley was a real republican he would have brought the deer home and eaten it, like my parents did in the old days

That deer attacked Grassley’s car like in a bullfight: Stamped the ground, lowered its head, snorted and charged!!

So come on down to Chuck Grassley’s Venison Splatter Hut, where the deer is always assumed dead and kids eat free! #AssumeDeerDead
