In a matter of hours Thursday, the Senate approved state fiscal aid and child nutrition bills which help pay for themselves by cutting more than $14 billion from food stamps. didn't they just make a big deal out of the Republican's refusal to renew jobless benefits? (Even that wasn't true. The Republicans just wanted to use cash reserves to pay for it. Democrats wanted more deficit spending.
and NOW after all that fuss, the Dems cut 14 Billion dollars taken out of the mouths of children, and the most needy among us (can't you just see the liberal media headlines had this been a Republican cut?
But there's not been a word from the liberal media.
Tuesday: Look it up. You just believe what the dems tell you. How much deficit spending can this country stand? The majority of the people want fiscal responsibility. The Democrats are being reckless. Our debt is skyrocketing since Obama took office. And he has plans to make it worse. He's a socialist. The government can't pay for all these entitlements. The money isn't there.
And don't miss the larger point. Democrats went out of their way to vilify the Republicans because of the dispute over benefit extensions. And yet the Dems slash food stamps!!! Does that make sense to you?
