If the family receives food stamps (or whatever the name is now) the kids automatically qualify for FARM.

Pants on the ground? A-OK!
La Raza affiliation? So progressive!
Gang symbols? You go! You're just expressing yourself!
Christian-bashing t-shirt? You tell 'em!

Cowboy hat? Racist redneck Republican who must be raked over the coals!

There is no evidence whatsoever that anything like that is going on. But after all, every tax payer's nickel that buys a kid a pint of milk, well, that's one less nickel for oil company subsidies!

You must be one of the tenured workers at Fraud Line, Ink.

We may have spoken over the phone.

Hmmmm...

A two second Google search turned up the following:

USDA Office of the Inspector General

If you want to call:

(800) 424-9121
(202) 690-1622
(202) 690-1202 (TDD)

If you rather write:

United States Department of Agriculture
Office of Inspector General
PO Box 23399
Washington, DC 20026-3399

Or is you prefer to send an email:

USDA / Office of Inspector General

Now I can imagine that someone calling in with vague accusations might get the brush off, but as you have indicated that you have access to who is availing themselves of the programs and I would imagine the license plates of all these BMW's and Benzs that you might get a better hearing.

Yeah! The good Christian thing to do is starve that poor child because the parent may be trying game the system!

Yeah! I know those children have no control over what their parent does but Jesus told Michelle Bachmann that the right thing to do is starve them until they drag their sorry Mexican Culo's back to Margaritaville or wherever those non-Americans come from!

America! Yeah! We're #1! We're #1! We're #1!
