Yet the Farm Bill, HR1947 was written and sponsored by a Republican, Frank Lucas. Supposedly Lucas is an ardent conservative.
The Republicans are gutless. Of course they rolled over on Food Stamps, and all other Entitlements. The Budget Control Act of 2011 exempted Entitlements, but inordinately punished our military, who have sacrificed more than 99% of all Americans. The Republicans have become the “me too” defenders of the welfare state.
