University of Iowa professor Tim Hagle, a usually amiable cheerleader for his state, contends I’ve insulted Iowa caucusgoers with this section of the Jolt:

Why Jay-Z Has a Good Reason to Be Mad at Mike Huckabee
While we’re picking on Mike Huckabee, a quick point about this section of his book:
My reaction: Why? Beyoncé is incredibly talented — gifted, in fact. She has an exceptional set of pipes and can actually sing. She is a terrific dancer — without the explicit moves best left for the privacy of her bedroom. Jay-Z is a very shrewd businessman, but I wonder: Does it occur to him that he is arguably crossing the line from husband to pimp by exploiting his wife as a sex object?
Would anyone dispute that the above statement, suggesting Jay-Z is Beyoncé’s “pimp,” implies Beyoncé is a whore, or dresses like a whore?
As noted on the pop-culture podcast . . . gentlemen, if another guy came up to you and called your wife a whore . . . wouldn’t you knock his teeth out? Ladies, if a man called you a whore and said your husband was your pimp, would you or would your husband knock the guy’s teeth out first? I’m not endorsing bare-knuckle dental work on those who call married women whores, per se . . . I’m just saying I can understand.
Separately, I’m sure this is the sort of statement that plays terrifically among the 120,000 or so Republicans who participate in the Iowa caucuses. It also plays terribly among the millions of Beyoncé fans out there. There’s a really legitimate discussion to be had about sexually explicit images and behavior in pop culture, particularly about whether these images, intended for adults, are permeating the culture of America’s pre-teens and adolescents. But suggesting that Jay-Z is pimping out his wife — as if Beyoncé wears anything she doesn’t want to wear! — is precisely the wrong way to have that conversation.
Now, in Huckabee’s defense . . . here’s Beyoncé with her backup dancers at the Video Music Awards last year. No, I’m not putting that photo in the e-mail, you’ll have to click-through.

If Huckabee accuses Jay-Z of “crossing the line from husband to pimp,” then who, pray tell, does Huckabee contend Jay-Z is pimping?
