I am a Christian and a republican but sometimes when I read nasty comments about people on food stamps I cringe, it just seems that the people of the GOP in their politics has crossed over into some viciousness that I am not comfortable with. I know people who struggle and in poverty here in Ky, I also know people who have abused the system but that is because of the corruption in Washington and their lack of competence at anything that they do. People receiving help does not bother me as much as the totality of corruption with our politicians such as Barney Frank and Chris Dodd and the rest of the elitist politicians who are ruining American with their policies. Growing up my dad was a raging alcoholic who did not work and my mom was a simple waitress and there were times we did not have food. There were times we would walk the streets to other relatives so as to get food, I was just a kid. Too many kids today have parents who do not work or are drunks or druggies but I do not have any regrets with my tax dollars seeing them get food for the kids. Flame away!!! I just do not like to blame everyone who needs help because of others who take advantage of the system.
