WOW.....you didn't even bother to READ this thread before you reposted the same tired-out rhetoric that has already been debunked.

Uh.... the point isn't that people don't need assistance or shouldn't be on it -- the point is things have gotten so bad under this administration, that it has been allowed to get this way. And it's becoming very costly for everyone.

Yep. As good ol Rambo Deadfish Emanuel said, "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste!"

I don't need to read right winger non-facts. I just need to look around.

As many as 17 million children nationwide are struggling with what is known as food insecurity. To put it another way, one in four children in the country is living without consistent access to enough nutritious food to live a healthy life, according to the study, "Map the Meal Child Food Insecurity 2011."
HUNGER HURTS: Millions of American Kids Go Hungry - ABC News

We have had the worst recession in history, only second to the great depression. How many people went hungry during the depression? Should we not feed those who are hungry and cannot afford food? Is that what America is about for Conservatives?

Yes! Those damn stupid kids (at least once they're out of the womb--up until then they must be protected at all costs) are leeches sucking on the teat of government. What are they doing to add to the prosperity of the country? NOTHING! They're lazy and shiftless, expecting to be taken care of. Why, I would be willing to bet every Conservative on this site has supported themselves from their very first breath with no help from anyone else because conservatives are SELF-SUFFICIENT, you know, and never need anything from anybody. Those kids need to pull themselves up by their training shoelaces and go to work for their ration of gruel.

Oh, and just so everyone remembers, the GOP is the Christian party. It says so right in their platform. (Didn't Jesus say something about feeding the hungry?)

Food stamps feed mostly children.

You are whining that kids are being fed. That's disgusting. Now go be a good little mindless Rep and tell us how life is so sacred that women must be forced to bear babies if raped.

But if we're going to use that meme, then why does Obama hate children so much that he's forced them onto food stamps?
You write "you're" instead of "your" and you accuse ME of being dumb?

Ha.

Your entire OP is a complaint that kids are being fed if hungry. What kind of human being gets mad if little kids have something to eat? Oh that's right. A Republican human being. That's why I'm not one and never will be.

How about THINKING????


What's OBAMA done to get these people off of Food Stamps? Nothing, Nada, Zilch.

If you notice in the graph, people got food stamps under BUSH, a Conservative. We just don't have the NUMBERS we do TODAY under Obama.

This stinking economy is OWNED by Obama and the busk stops at HIS desk.

I note you havent answered the question, lets try again

So you think Bill Clinton was starving little children? What can we summarize by the fact that Clinton was the prime speaker for the DNC Convention Tuesday, that the DNC agrees with Clinton that children should starve?

Clearly having children isnt something new, right?

What I find disgusting is the number of Democratic lemmings that can only respond with, "starving the chilren" rather than the issue.. Ooh and when I find it couldnt get any more pathetic, you bring up rape, as if most people on food stamps are the result of rapes..

Democrats, here is a challenge, could you get any more ridiculous than Eleanora?

Next, you brainwashed right wingers will be complaining about Michelle Obama's initiative to promote good nutrition and healthy foods to our children.

You don't want to "kick the can down the road to our children." Rather, you want our children to pay the price right now while millionaires and billionaires get more tax breaks and squirrel their money offshore.
