15. It doesn't even matter whether or not it's true

that's not even the point to Gingrich. It's offensive and it's a "dog-whistle" to the racist GOP base.

However, frankly, I would be proud to be known as a "Food Stamp President" that helps make sure people have food during these tough economic times (that Gingrich and his ilk are largely responsible for due to their policies) rather than a "Let-Them-Die-Hungry-In-The-Streets President" who seeks to deny needy people assistance. If Gingrich and his ilk are so obsessed with getting people a paycheck, you'd never know it-judging by their inattention to the task of actually creating jobs (and no, seeking to cut domestic spending to the bone has NOTHING to do with creating jobs!)
