“...ignoring that the majority of the poor are white and often live in the suburbs and rural areas.”

When the only tool you have is a hammer, all your problems look like nails.

Mr. Ryan created a debt limit capitulation budget that gave away this country’s future. He worked and worked and worked, and with the help of Boehner, Cantor, Graham, McCain and McConnell shackled our children and grandchildren to a slave’s existence.

Don’t tell me about this twit’s conciliation to the CBC or any other group for that matter. He’s pretty much baked the sh!t pie already.

Rep. Barbara Lee (D., Calif.) called it "a thinly veiled racial attack" that "cannot be tolerated" for ignoring that the majority of the poor are white and often live in the suburbs and rural areas.

She's obviously got the IQ of a brick. Anyone who points out the obvious problem, ranging from Bill Cosby, Ben Carson, Allen West, or Thomas Sowell, are vilified because of it. That said, Barb should stop and do the math: 39% of welfare recipients are white, 40% are black, but blacks are only 12% of the population. I don't give a rats ass what she thinks, their culture dooms their children to the same life and the War on Poverty never had a chance given they way it was designed.

Did Paul Ryan bring a sack full of $100’s to distribute. If not he will not get heard.

The CBC will not let Ryan out of the room until he agrees to spend more tax payer money to perpetuate the problem.

“..But because Mr. Ryan is white—and worse, a Republican, he is a “racist” for pointing out how many approaches to poverty alleviation aren’t working.”

Cliven Bundy said something sympathetic about poor blacks - look what happened. I do not trust Rand Paul as far as I can throw him.

Democrats - They control and run every ghetto in America.
Poverty is BIG business and the Dems sure don’t want to stop the gravy train. Not sure what it is now but years back it cost $ 6.00 to give a welfare recipient $ 1.00.

Unfortunately Juan, your ignorance is part of the problem.
