The Author
Salon has really gone into overdrive into another dimension lately
Sorry - way too much evidence of fraud and waste for me to feel even a twinge of sympathy for the author’s position.
Clean that up first, and we’ll talk about the truly needy.
Republican increased Food Stamp spending by 57%. The Democrats wanted 65%. There’s “the cut”.
Saloon. Race has nothing to do with it has usual. We just want everyone to work for food and not get overly dependent on the government. THE FOREIGNER has been going at full speed in the wrong direction on this and many other issues.
I suppose the only way to alleviate this situation, Ms. Cooper, is for me to apply for some of them food stamps . . . instead of working for a living.
Salon has an ugly reputation for flinging racial accusations at activist conservatives because they fear us. The real issue is not black and white, but left and right. Their agenda is always to advance the aims of the left, no matter how. This is not conjecture on my part. I have been their target in the past.
What horsesh*t, excuse my Ohio accent.
How about "colored people" learn not to depend on the evil white man for sustenance? Then they don't need to worry about racism.
In a free society, anyone who wishes to buy food for another will not be stopped. Nor will anyone who doesn’t wish to buy food for another be coerced into doing so.
Food stamps are coerced funding of food through the unconstitutional US department of Agriculture. The food stamp program should be abolished.

What this fat bigot doesn’t mention is that this is $40 billion cut over TEN YEARS. Had she learned any math, she would know that this paltry $4 billion annual cut amounts to practically nothing, and is aimed at the rampant use of EBT cards for drugs, prostitutes and other non-food expenditures, such as casinos and shipping food to other countries where it is sold on the black market.
To me this is an admission of:
1)failure on the part of Dems/liberals to lift up the poor. All the money spent over the years on the welfare state and still, so much poverty. But, it does provide them with votes.
2)Another admission, this time from blacks, that they believe in staying on the Democrat "plantation" and feeding off the government teat, always looking to the government for their needs instead of themselves (a lot of whites do this, too).
And I, for one, will gladly give food to someone with a genuine need.
Her views and my views are NEVER going to agree on this subject.
Getting a free meal off of my sweat is not going to be something that I am ever going to agree with, and that sooner or later myself (and other such minded people) are going to vote people in to shut off this spicket.
When that happens people such as this author are going to be SOL, and it will be push come to shove, and let the games begin.
If we are going to use terms such as “people of color” why not simply call them colored?
I deny the author’s accusation of racism. I want to starve people of every race, sex, age and national origin. < /ludicrous level sarcasm>
but they can try to unite all blacks around the disgusting lie of the innocent st skittles, trayvon martin.
In the title it says “GOP launches race war”. Then the authors starts the fourth paragraph with”This is not a race-based problem”
So if that is the case how is it race based?
In the first paragraph it says “ the bill that demand that non-employed participants in the program get a job, job training or do community service activities”
But then in the second paragraph the author says “Moreover, there is a refusal to accept that the economic downturn in 2008 created conditions of long-term unemployment, such that people simply cannot go out and get a job just because they will it to be so.”
Is that not the point of job training or community service? Looks like three choices to me not just get a job.
This article is full of contradictory things and makes me feel bad for the author. She obviously does not know how to form a argument for her point.
Obviously she is a product of public education.
so you hate all people equally? :-)
