I think I know who Ruth voted for in 2008. How is it that 2005 is looking like the good old days?!

Didn't hear a single story about the hungry after Jan. 2009.

Now, after Nov. 2, suddenly, they're back.

However, the District of Columbia is also one of the clearest examples in the nation of massive inequality.

And just what is it that separates the haves from the have nots in D.C.? Could it be that some have been able to form parasitic relationships with the rest of the nation, while the others have to work for a living serving the parasites?

The AP has been telling us to expect Christmas sales to be slightly higher that last year. Hilarious. There is no way, I can’t see it.

Thanksgiving is here, so is hunger: Record number of Americans worry about providing food...

Record number of Americans thinking that food is a right and, therefore, should be provided for them rather than by them. Record number of Americans going to food banks for free food so they can use the money formerly spent on food for other things.

People are constantly complaining about the Government programs. When I was a kid there were no such programs because it was the responsibility of the local churches to feed and cloth the poor. The money and workforce for such projects coming from church members. For some reason people no longer seem willing to become involved and expect the Government to take over these projects and you can see how well that has worked out.

I recently moved to the mid west, you know the Bible Belt. I started attending a Fundamental Baptist church. At a women’s meeting we were discussing upcoming projects and someone suggested collecting food for the local food bank. Great idea I thought. Boy was I wrong. Hardly anyone donated and those that did donated canned goods that expired in 2007..really! If we are not willing to help out our neighbors than we wind up with the miserable Government system that is in place now. My son once wrote a paper that stated:

“Once we looked to the church for salvation, now we look to the Government for salvation where there is none.”

Remember when you were a kid and your mom would urge you to eat all your food on your plate because of the starving kids in China.

Soon Chinese moms will be telling there kids the same. The tables are reversing on us.

Well, for any one of them who voted for Obama; “Eat hot hope!”

I would love to see the average weight/height ratio of these non “food secure” households. I'm betting they have as much, if not more obesity, than the average household.

Of course this can't be happening, Obama was going to pay my rent and gas, feed my chil’ren!

Obama Is Going To Pay For My Gas And Mortgage!!!

“The percentage of food insecure households rose to a record high 14.7% in 2009”
