From an analysis of what’s taken Congress so long to extend unemployment benefits comes this mind-boggling gem:
Democrats also maintain hopes of passing a $16 billion aid package for governors aimed at preserving the jobs of tens of thousands of state workers through the election. They intend to pay for it in part by cutting food stamp benefits.
Only in the minds of progressive liberals can blossom the precious idea that protecting the jobs of government employees, many of whom are unionized and the ever-increasing numbers of which are a goodly part of America’s deficit problem,is more important than making sure the poor can eat by giving them food stamps.
