The irony of the Ryan/GOP plan to cut food stamps

The red states would suffer the most by cutting food stamps, citizens and grocers alike would feel the pinch.  Likewise it takes billions from farmers, dairy especially has been in favor of food stamps.  Children and the elderly make up the largest beneficiaries of the program, this Republican simple minded "get a job you dead beat" is not a solution for them even in the best of economies.   Prez Johnson had his "war on poverty", democrats tried to eliminate it, now the republicans are trying to increase it.
We had a friend, moved now, to fucking Texas, a catholic women who would go into fits about the school lunch and breakfast plans for minorities (which by the way whites make up the largest group).  Her take, let them go hungry and their slut mothers would finally start feeding them.  Such a humanitarian she was, an exemplary christian.

I will not watch any of the gooberpublicans convention.  Instead I will google hundreds of times during it for info on the storm, on Obama, Biden, environmental and science issues.  I will get my news of Tampax slaughter by Wonkette, daily show, Colbert, and the like.
