To: My Favorite Headache
Myrthil, 38, of Brockton, Mass., is one of thousands of legal immigrants who don't qualify for food stamps because of changes Congress made in 1997. He can obtain food stamps only for his 3-month-old baby, who automatically became a U.S. citizen when she was born stateside. ``I have family, four brothers over here, a sister, when I need some food they can give me some food,'' he said. Imagine that -- people choosing to provide for their own families, instead of forcing taxpayers to do it. What a novel idea.

Call me cruel, but I have no complaints about starving non-citizens. First, they are here illegally so they can get out of my country and two, where in the hell do they get off expecting that US taxpayers need to feed them? I am glad that the GOP moved money from those leeching districts.
