You are a piece of work, truly. This is the perfect example of hypocrisy at its finest. What a joke.
Very well said!

Maybe we should go back and dig up all the threads about the conservatives' outrage (and gross insults) whenever Mrs. Obama promoted healthy eating and exercise.

Pathetic hypocrisy.........at its worst.

It's not even worth it. They'll still keep spinning it, thinking no one else is paying attention. Too bad for them, we are.

This woman is the THE PERFECT example of failed liberal ideology. She's the child of immigrants. She's fat. She's disabled. She does not work. She receive's food stamps. She has 5 obese children.

Is there a more perfect example of how liberals and liberalism are the death of America?

How the food stamp diet is leaving the Rio Grande Valley both hungry and obese | The Washington Post
I hope she has enough food stamps to offer her family a nice dinner for Thanksgiving. Hear my prayer O Lord.

Nor do her children. She'll train them well, and honestly, they won't know any better. They don't stand a chance of leading productive lives and having pride in themselves and their accomplishments.

That may be true, but blacks love grape drink more than other races.

I could not care less what anyone eats if they pay for it themselves.

Are you willing to open your pocketbook and have every dime from it taken.....to help the needy? Are you willing to have your savings, investments, 401K, children's college fund etc given over to help those less fortunate?

If you say, yes......then you're not being honest.

If you say, no......then what are you?

I guarantee you, Bill Maher has not drained his pocketbook to help the less fortunate......

I get so tired of the left always saying......all you think about is money, you are heartless because you will not help those less fortunate.

So how many of the left have drained their pocketbook to help the less fortunate??? But yet, they criticize the Conservatives for saying enough is enough.

What it boils down to....not only do the left want to keep those less fortunate....less fortunate. They don't have the guts to say. No, I will not drain my pocketbook to help you. Yet, at the same time they call Conservatives - heartless....

and what percentage of that is solely food stamps and food stamps? many of the programs listed in those 83 are programs that also help working and middle income families, not to mention the elderly. when I talk about poor shaming, I am generally speaking of those like the woman in this story, who, as your link will show, are not typical of those who receive welfare. as I have said, welfare recipients are not a threat to the middle class. in fact, if not for the actions of the rich, many of these people would be middle class. technology has also played a part, but there are still many manufacturing jobs that could be done in this country.

Oh, I see, you've drained your pocketbook. Not. So you got nothing from that clip, hey? Not surprising.
