GOP Rep Describes Pushing 300k Children Off Lunch Program... As "Trimming The Fat"

4. This is a fundamental difference between the parties....

The Republicans see extending a helping hand to the less fortunate as "fat" but giving huge tax breaks to the wealthy as moral.

I knew they would not want the automatic cuts on the military to go into effect. I suggest we let them stew in their own juices for a while. Our military could be cut by 50% and we would never miss it. It would not lessen our ability to defend the homeland. It might impact our ability to play global policeman but not defending the homeland which is what the military should do.
