I believe there was a declared “War on Poverty” that goes back to King’s days.

40+ years later, there’s still “poverty.” Didn’t work then, won’t work now.

As Rush inquired, “who will be the Secretary of Surrender?”

The “sainted” King family has a long night ahead wiping Hillary’s lipstick off their behinds.

Well, we’ve spent about $5,000,000,000,000+ on poverty since 1965. The poverty rate remains relatively unchanged.

Maybe we should have cabinet secretaries and staff to deal with obesity, junk food, the tobacco scourge, the propensity for young girls to be videotaped flashing their tasty body parts on Spring break, and people dressing up as pirates on Halloween as well.

AAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!

Oh isn't she just brilliant, another socialist dufus sitting around cleaning their fingernails and dusting the seat of their chair with the butt draining the U.S. Treasury on another program to keep Washington bureaudemocrats in office.

What's the latest price tag for all of her brilliancy, when she can't even pay her own bills for medical premiums for her campaign staff. The only calls she will get at 3:00 a.m. is from the bill collectors.

Hillary Rodham Clinton called for a cabinet-level poverty czar

If the gov't keeps taxing us and pissing our money away, we will need one.

Poverty comes from children born out of wedlock and from illegal aliens.

Hell, I thought she'd want... an Anti-Sniper Cabinet Level Department!

I’m sure this Poverty Czar will do for poverty what the education secretary has done for our schools and the energy secretary has done for energy production.

If it was Jimmuh Carter, he would call for a cabinet post for a Department of Malaise.

Same difference.
