I read the entire news article that was provided at the link and did not see anything at all about Food Stamps.

They won't tell you that in the article. Most news stories won't even tell you that the Farm Bill is 80% Food Stamps either.

This is not a farm bill; it's a food stamp bill. Food stamps make up roughly 80 percent of the bill. The 20 percent of the bill that is left is mostly handouts in the form of corporate welfare and other programs that benefit special interests.

80 percent????? Holy cow. Thanks for this, but I am not particularly stunned that the new article does not mention the food stamps. However, I guess it does allow the Democrats to say that Republicans are trying to starve children since it is 80 percent of the bill. Gosh no wonder people are freaked out and worried about losing food stamps….80 percent!!!!!! That is an astonishing number. Oh and don’t think I have ignored the farmers who are vilified but only receive 20 percent of the money and some of it is LOANS. How amazing is that????
