i wasnt referring specifically to you. I just meant republicans in general. If they want something, you have to give something.
This is silly. For the record, I'm for across the board cuts including military but that's not at issue here.
We can only end stupid programs if others agree to end programs you do not like? If there is no agreement to cut the military, we simply have to allow welfare reciepiants buy cigarettes?
They are generally the people complaining about welfare. If you want to go back to the roots, fine by me, but the republicans will have to give something up.
This is not a complaint about welfare. It's a question of whether or not welfare should be paying for cigarette's.
Wait.. I cant put salt that I paid for, on my food I paid for, or people cant buy a soda in school using their own money, but you have absolutely no problem with taxpayer money being used to buy a cancer causing cigarette for someone that the taxpayers will have to care for when they get sick?
I dont believe that person should be able to buy cigarettes, but the simple fact is, republicans are looking for any reason to end entitlements. I was just making the point they complain about welfare all the time, along with anything else that is back mostly by democrats.

It's like a toddler holding his breath until he gets his way.
Pretty much how this current administration is operating.

Maybe if Democrats didnt back stupid programs which perpetuate poverty, then your stupid programs wouldnt be attacked.

No, we shouldnt allow welfare recipients to buy cigarettes. What I'm saying is, i dont want hear any complaining about the problems in welfare from the right, until they agree on military cuts or something else they cherish so much.
I had no idea that you could buy cigarette's with your welfare card. Amazing that the government is telling us that soda is bad for us but you can buy smokes with your welfare card?
Amazing, simply amazing.
Yes, and another good reason to end all government welfare.
