When the national debt increases by 60% in just a few years, does it have a stimulus affect??

Guess not.

Anyone else have a lib in your life that simply refuses to believe these numbers?

47 million on food stamps
100 million receiving some sort of government aid
167 million (including gov’t workers) depending on the gov’t for their livelihood

That’s 1/6 of the population on food stamps, 1/3 on gov’t aid, and over 1/2 simply dependent on gov’t.

I have stated these to my libinlaw, and she simply denies they are true. I was wondering if it’s a “lib-wide” phenomenon or not.

“FOOD STAMP USE CLIMBS TO RECORD 46.7 MILLION”


Paging Chris Mathews, paging Chris Mathews, republicans posting racist posts on FreeRepublic.

Chris,” you know food stamps are racist code words”.

“Record” is racist also because if something is a record, blacks must have lost and whites won.

“Use” is racist as in drug use and Chris knows that is just a code phrase for blacks using drugs.

And of course “CLIMBS” is the most racist code word as whites prevent blacks from climbing anything.

Chris, hurry to the rescue.

Yep—three times as many as those who found jobs in a month. No problem. The essential local planners, inspectors, NGOs, social workers, psychologists and public school teachers will see to it that each of your locales get the greatest piles of funding from debt. Many of them are self-described conservative taxpayers, and they’re on your side. [More than a little irony and sarcasm there. Politics: all about socialism and political correctness now.]

The US is avoiding third world status by spending $1.40 per $1.00 collected in revenue.

EBT/TANF/Section 8/Medicaid/SSI/99ers/etc.

Without the Baraqqi/Bernanke/Geithner bucks, the poor would REALLY be poor, not pseudo middle class like now.

Shame on anyone who thinks a persons use of food stamps means Obama owns them.
