I really don't need to call you anything; I WILL suggest that you read what everyone said so far, with the exception of our resident imbecile, and I could even predict that we would be hearing from YOU, (as usual); it would seem that you are really in the minority on this thread; so......what do YOU have to offer ? that I should "debate" ? How about a plain old-fashioned fist fight? I'm much better at that, and I HATE to argue with fools anyway. Why don't YOU just "smarten up" and realize that YOU have been "hood-winked" by the liberals ?

I don't know how old you are, but from your attitude, I'm guessing "not very"; I have very sad news for you, sonny; the cess pool YOU and YOUR "ilk" are helping to create is going to be where YOU have to LIVE, for a very, very long time to come. If you always think you're so smart, why aren't you telling us about YOUR "better ideas" ? Why don't you point out what there is about what this man wrote, that YOU think is untrue ? Until you can do all of that, why don't YOU shut your pie-hole and stop embarrassing yourself?

While you're at it, genius, why don't YOU post YOUR age, your education (if any), and tell us about your "experience" and credibility, (if any) ????????????

BTW..........apparently you don't even know what "mud-slinging" is.........That's what liberals do.....sling "mud" (better known as BS) by most people .......things that aren't true. That leave me out, because everything I've posted IS true.........You just can't stand to hear it.

"The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.
It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president." - from Prager Zeitungon, a newspaper in the Czech Republic, about America.

The politicians have found, and nurtured, their gravy-train. It's not likely they will give it up without a fight. I'm NOT talking about Democrats or Republicans, but BOTH. It's kind of sad the Democratic voters feel they are the "chosen people" right now because it's a Democrat Administration. In truth, they are no more highly regarded by the gross political crowd than Republican voters. It's like thinking if you are friendly to the Mexican drug cartels they won't cut your throat and put your head on a fencepost. Dream on...

We, the taxpayers (about 50% or so of the population) are nothing more than $$ in the eyes of the politicians who routinely lie to us and misrepresent us. My firsthand experience comes from Harry Reid, D-NV, and Dean Heller, R-NV. Heller is only marginally better than Reid in terms of honesty and representation.

In California, they have Diane Feinstein, D-CA, who said "Sure, 90%+ of my constituency is opposed to striking Syria, but they don't know what I know." Why does she not tell them what she knows? (She said basically the same thing about the Assault Rifle Ban in 1994.) She thinks she represents some extremely stupid people. And make no mistake: She's not just talking about her Republican constituency! The Republican voters are no smarter than the Democrat voters, though they may not be quite as misled by their politicians.

I can buy most of what he wrote however I might like to see some corroboration on his statement that most of those drawing food stamps are Democrats. Those kind of statements need some backing up with solid figures. I don't believe they ask your political affiliation when you apply for them do they? Also are Republicans that are out of a job with three or four kids to feed so idealistic that they wouldn't use food stamps if they qualified?

Substitute MP's for Senators and that could easily have written over here. I'd like to know who shafted whose electorate first!

I suppose, where ever you work, if you were presented with an opportunity to vote for a pay raise or against it, you'd fully expect that you and you co-workers would rather vote for the raise then have your income cut or even stopped. if this does not make sense to you.... then perhaps you have a point.

The simple fact is if this block voted republican/conservative, Romney would be in office. A person- Republican or Democrat, who is out of work, with three or four kids is exactly what these programs are for. They are welcome to take it till they can get on their feet again. The dirty lie is that conservatives are against this- they are not. Instead- these programs have evolved to create a class of those who rely on it as a way of life.... that is not what it was ever intended to do.

Another statistic is charitable contributions- every study I have found points to conservatives who are the ones who attend things like church and are the ones who are most benevolent . It is when liberal politicians reach into their pockets by law and take huge amounts of their sweat and spend it on things other then charity... that they have a problem with this.

Go ahead and look what Biden and Obama listed in their income taxes as charitable contributions BEFORE they caught flac for it, and I'll prove that point. -

Comes down to the fact Liberals are very generous with other peoples money.

Who is drawing food stamps by a particular party isn't the problem, the real problem is the need to draw food stamps and why has it gone haywired.
The trickle down theory and all the other fad methods to stir the economy were BS by congress and the corporations.
Cost continue to rise and the elite (heads of the corporations) can afford them but when jobs were eliminated it was for the good of the corporation, but now when the new jobs are offered it is only for part time and starting at minimum wage. Not of quality to get one out of the need for food stamps.
You try to divide by saying it's one or the other side (Dem or Rep) that is at fault, when in reality it's both their faults.
As long as you try to divide or defend a particular side the problem will continue. United we stand, divided we fall, why are you trying to lead divided we fall? The OP's general statement throughout was that congerss has done some terrible things. You are nit picking to divide.

dragonfist Loc: Stafford, N.Y.

I hardly believe it is nitpicking to state that his veracity is in question unless he can back up his statement. It is not looking to divide either as I stated I agreed with most of what he had to say. You sound like a politician that just wants everyone to go along and heaven forbid you might question anything.

This reported newspaper, Prayer Zeitungon, appears not to exist. I did find a German newspaper with a similar name. Maybe it was misspelled.
