    A lesson in irony.


    The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture,
    is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and food
    stamps ever.

    Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S.Department of the Interior, asks us to "Please Do Not Feed the Animals."

    Their stated reason for the policy is because the animals will grow
    dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.

    This ends today's lesson.

    Apache, i thought you were better then that, guess i was wrong.

    That had to be one of the worst cases of trying to compare 2 things, i have ever read in my 50 years on this planet.

    You really should be ashamed of that post

    I guess you dont know the difference between feeding a poor family compared to feeding a 700 pound wild grizzly who gets attached to being fed by humans

    Maybe if there was jobs in the country, so many people wouldnt need handouts, but i guess that never crossed your mind.  Lets gather up all the people getting handouts and just gas them to sleep, problem solved.

    I really believe all right wingers have had their compassion gene for others removed at birth

    Why does this have to be a right/left thing?     You over-sensitive, panties-in-a-bunch types are the mini-media types that are the problem. Its a correlation, not a comparison. 

    The system needs reform because it IS BEING ABUSED.   There is no doubt about that.

    Right wingers really were born without a brain or heart

    They believe if there wernt any democrats the world would be so much better, but the truth is these dummies would just kill each other



    Why does this have to be a right/left thing?     You over-sensitive, panties-in-a-bunch types are the mini-media types that are the problem. Its a correlation, not a comparison. 

    The system needs reform because it IS BEING ABUSED.   There is no doubt about that.

    Shame on you Apache.

    You of all people should be sensitive to the needs of the poor and the minorities.

    Other than that, it was a pretty good joke.

    Goose......as I have said before "I'll give a man a hand up, but not a hand out." Seldom do I make a trip to the store that some able bodied and well dressed person is not using food stamps. The system is BROKE and TOO many are using BHO's buy your vote stamps. I remember well when the day was that if you didn't work, you didn't eat. Kids are one thing, but abled bodied Adults are another.

    It's hopeless getting liberals to understand things like this. Yes, kids shouldn't starve, yet poor people will keep having more kids as long as they get handouts like this. And so the debt will continue to grow at a much greater rate as long as liberals get their way.
