You're confusing Valley Forge with the three little pigs. A common error.
Them three little pigs were oinking like choir boys because Joni was having some Rocky Mountain oysters.

Ernst doesnt have a clue of what its like when a parent has to choose between buying prescription medicine, going to a doctor, or buying clothes and groceries. She is a typical "Tea Partier" completely out of touch with America.
Some pretty big leaps you are making.

Didn't realize only child=not poor

So true. Jindal is still trying to overcome that embarrassing speech, and Rubio's water issues are always brought up as a joke.

I'm surprised the bigoted cornpone wench didn't wear shoes made from pig testicles when she was a little girl.

I'll bet you would have loved it if she would have promised more free stuff.

Her family got a lot of free stuff.

Do you even realize that? You should be angry, not ignorant.

WHY is there even a rebuttal?

The SOTU is called for in the Constitution, the rebuttal's merely a circus act.

That still makes an issue as she wants to get rid of subsidies her family used whether it was while she was growing up or after. That is just plain HEARTLESS. Would you want to get rid of a program that actually helped you or your family?
