“Discussing” is what Congress does
Politically this is a great move..
Democrats are boxed in.
Democrats want the chaos of the shutdown, but if Republicans piece meal the spending and force democrats to vote individually on things like this what are Democrats going to do?
They either vote for it, or vote it down and see their base go insane for not getting their food stamps and everyone will know they are why they aren’t getting them .
Good post. It makes me wonder if most of the GOP actually agrees with Rand Paul and doesn’t really want the CR to pass.
No money until the DemonRATS put Americans FIRST and not kissing the asses of 20 million foreign freeloading SCUMBAGS wanting the Gringos to pay for “a better life” for ahos who wanted to try socialism and it failed. Jackasses.
I agree, politically it is a good move. Make the Democrats vote against benefits for the needy
The Dems need to do their duty and vote open the government. They're hurting their own constituents. Just plain stupid.
“I’d love to know where Freepers stand on this one!”
Pass the bill only to see what happens in the Senate.
If the Senate dems kill it... it’s another nail.
Allowing the dems to continue withering on the vine by not funding the illegal-alien benefit package futhers the notification that the DNC continues as the party supporting Illegals, criminals, hamass and Marxists.
Just ask any enlisted man to find out my thoughts.
Good point as usual. Seems like Congress has to make a stark choice
Its got to happen sooner or later .... They will find a way to punt it, though.
SNAPLAND STORE
Truck in canned veggies, pasta and rice
Truck out expensive stuff
And don’t wait until the SNAP cards are empty.
Welfare is immoral and unconstitutional.
Charity is voluntary and pleasing to God. Welfare is using the coercive power of govt to rob one for the benefit of another. It is unconstitutional because it is unequal treatment, which violates equal-protection.
42 million on SNAP? You have to be kidding me. What a disgrace. We are a country of freeloaders.
Force the democrats to vote on record on:
1. Paying the military
2. Paying essential federal employees
3. Continuing SNAP benefits
Dare them to vote against it. It’s win-win.
Giantmart ‘Free’ Food Line
Just show us your SNAP card and then get in line.
Line & Aisle A: Your choice, one per person:
a can of veggies
a pound of pasta
a loaf of short-dated bread
a chicken breast
Line & Aisle B: Your choice, one per group of at least two:
a carton of 12 eggs
a gallon of milk
a box of store brand cereal
Stores could write down how much was given out each day and seek government reimbursement.
However angry you are, you're not angry enough. Listen to these ghettopotami saying it's the taxpayer's job to feed them.
Let the Democrats stand or fall by the individual programs that they support.
It's generational. And they breed like cats.
“42 million on SNAP? You have to be kidding me. What a disgrace. We are a country of freeloaders.”

This is what we’ve become, SAD!!!!!!!
The hand out, not a hand up!
The Republicans need to do something to generate good PR and put the Dems on the defensive. If a bill to keep food stamp benefits flowing is it, so be it. The GOP is real good at doing nothing until a ton of bad publicity forces them to cave in. They should do this.
