Roland Sledge is a 66-year-old Houston energy lawyer running for a seat on the Texas state commission that regulates the oil and gas industries. In the video, the Republican candidate stares into the camera while standing in a pasture, and riffs on a Will Rogers quote: “Isn’t it about time we elected political leaders that have sense enough not to pee on electric fences?”

My understanding of peeing is that it is a series of droplets as opposed to a continuous stream. As such, it should be safe to pee on an electric fence.
