They had some canned dog food on the counter. The clerk told her, "I will have to ring this up seperate because WIC will not pay for it."
The lady gave her son the cans, told him to take it back, and get 2 pounds of ground beef.
Now, where do you think that ground beef went? And who paid for it?

She must be the one sending that email around.

"Take all this crap to a politcal forum." Actually I disagree with that statement, I'd rather talk fishing too, but no one is reporting. I think this is a fun and potentially educational thread, as long as everyone is respectful can shake hands and agree to disagree at the end. "Command Economy" hmmm.... who knew?!

What you mean it don't belong here? This is fishing. I set out a bait to get Tennessee to reveal his true liberal socialist self and sure enough, like a killer whale, he nearly beached himself going after the bait.
Besides, the weather is too bad for fishing in the gulf, so I moved my fishing location to land based.

I would rather not chime in but the overwhelming comfort with generalizations and racism brings down the quality of the forum. Sure, people are free to ignore the thread or pass it over but there are more people looking at this site than a few good ole boys. It just seems rather trashy to me like watching Carlos Mencia or guests on Jerry Springer.

I don't have a problem with anybody getting gov't assistance if they really need it. It's good thet we have such a system in place. But it needs to be regulated a heck of a lot better. Anybody that can work needs a job, not money handed out to them. I work in health care, and you wouldn't believe the number of able-bodied people we see in the hospital that come in with no job, no insurance, and they almost always test positive for alcohol and drugs. Now, if they can't work, how is it they can find money to buy all the alcohol and drugs? They don't give that stuff away.And their hospital bills always go to the indigent care fund, which is always used up in the first quarter of the year, anyway. Go figure.

Like Ronald Reagan used to sat "Now there you go again."
First lets cover generalizations.... Now when you see a guy with a mask and gun going into a bank, and think "That guy is going to rob a bank", that is not a generalization, that is reason based on fact. Same thing when you see someone use food stamps, then go get in a new car in their designer clothes while talking on their cell phone.
Lets get to Racism....I read every post in this thread again, and did not see ONE reference to race. But I did see a post trying to start it. Yours Boggob! I see both lazy white and blacks sittin on there arses in this country. Hell, lets offend the latinos too. I see some lazy arse Mexicans around. Is that racism? NO. Just fact. As for the Hummer and Escalade comment, I do not know about there in Fla, but up here, white folks seem to like Hummers, and black folks like Escalades. Is that racism? NO.
Actually, the ONLY racist comment I saw was yours Boggob.
Now, Can us White, Black, Yellow and Green conservatives get back to trying to knock some sense in to you liberals?

You running out of steam there Tennessee. Timothy McVeigh killed conservatives, liberals, blacks, whites, and probably even Christians, Muslims or Jews. He also murdered children that never hurt anyone.
I don't think any conservative would claim him as "their kind"
Responsibility is about taking care of yourself, your family and your friends. Doing what is morally correct. NOT depending on someone else to take care of you.
(Now of course, I am not talking about disabled folks or mentally handicapped, or folks that deserve help, but the healthy lazy ones....)
I will sum it up .... Do away with Entitlements and the liberal entitlement mentality
MAKE folks that can work...do just that, work. If you are on welfare or food stamps, you pass a drug test. Why not, my wife has to pass a drug test at her job. She has cancer, and she still works. She does not have to financially, but she WANTS to. THAT is what America is and should be.
Quite frankly, it just pisses me off to see my sick wife work because she wants to, and there are healthy souls out there sitting on their arses because they have a liberal government handing out my wife's had earned tax dollars to them for sittin' on their butts doing nothing.

What he did was a shame and what he did was a response to gun control, abortion clinics have been blown up, and doctors, nurses killed. All done by the far right. I also believe NONE of you would condone that type of behavior. However their are Conservatives that do condone that behavior, just like there are Liberals that condone the beating of even the killing of hunters. My point is there are irresponsible people on both sides of the spectrum.
