Looks like Saturday's 'computer glitch' was a trial run by the Obama administration after all.

Maybe they should start questioning their TP Senator who has helped to lead the government shutdown.

Very good. Time to let people fend for themselves and not leech on others.

Maybe Bots should recognize a Jim Jones tactic by their messiah when they see one.

Good thing Utah has one of the lowest food stamp usage rates in the country.

No such thing... he was elected in Texas, where else does he have some huge following, like Obama? Does the media pander to him and cover for him like with Obama? Nope.

Food for children is not a problem, there is free breakfast at school, free lunch, kids take home backpacks of Snack Cups, Beefaroni, juice boxes, cereal bars for weekends...

Food for adults, no problem, there are shelters with food....the issue is the entitlement mentality of these people....they don't know true hunger.
"I don't want soup", "I only want a sandwich with turkey, no cheese.".

Work with people who get EBT, and the cynicism about,"No food" cries sound pretty weak.

I suggest all these entitlement programs end, permanently. Feed kids at school, as happens now. Adults, can get food vouchers and eat at soup kitchens.
