Why do conservatives always bring up race when you discuss welfare, actually, they seem to bring up race in general.
The reason I bring it up is because people are saying how "red states"get so many benefits. The fact is that African-Americans %wise get a large amount of government services. Explains largely why they support a large federal government. If someone is going to talk about "red states"getting welfare,is it not valid to look at the demographics of some of the states? Why so sensitive anyway? I thought welfare and government dependency was the left's dream.
Conservative logical error #1: Never equate your own personal situation with an internationally recognized and revered institution like the US government
you are not winning this argument. god bless america and all serving in our armed forces.
He's quoting rednecks in flyover country with 'gubbermint'. You guys, on the other hand, frequently misspell roles/rolls, there, they're, their, to, too, and incorrectly make a plural noun a possessive noun (we are all American's as opposed to the correct way: we are all Americans)
We don't speak that way in "flyover" country (and I live in the country, so I know).
Common typos are not "misspellings," but typos. Period. Those errors are easy to make when writing using a keyboard. It is the case of the brain thinking the word, but the fingers typing the incorrect form or spelling of a word that sounds identical to the one we mean. Spell checker doesn't catch it. The only way to make sure of correct word is to proofread, and many don't read what they wrote (if some of you did, you'd be embarrassed — because too many can't write).
When you add up all the Federal benefits that these Republican counties receive from SS, Medicare, Tricare, VA, Govt Retirement Checks, Disabilty, Snap, EITC, SSI, . add on miliatry bases and other government jobs and it doesnt make any sense. The Republican Party is one big government check and yet they want small gubbermint.
Heres a link how a good part of the Tea Party types voted againt their interests.

They want smaller gov't has long as it's not their services being cut. The tiny "town" (maybe a total of 300 homes over a 5 X 5 sq mile area) was outraged when it's own personal post office was going to be shut down. The move totally makes sense but Yep, big Tea Bagger area

In towns that small the Post Office provides a community identity and also serves as a "community center" where people catch up with each other when picking up their mail.
