...not reported by a single reputable news source.

Stormfront, Infowars, and Breitbart are just shitting themselves with joy, however.

Fake News?

Most people who participate in the SNAP program have jobs. Most people who participate in the SNAP program are Caucasian.

Just saying.

The friends I have with SNAP benefits are all elderly white people who worked all their lives (one friend worked until she was 82), but for various reasons do not have enough to live on in their so-called "golden years." Guess, at the age of 87, my friend should stop being so d*mn lazy and get offa her worthless butt and get another jawb.

The comments at ZeroHedge... ugh. What awful people they are. Clueless racist jerks.

Apparently RWD will believe any vile lie so long as it lets him hate poor people and black people.

You went to their cesspool of a comments section?

You're a braver man than I.

Did this article mention race? Why r liberals always obsessed with race?

Hooray4US said...

The comments went on & on & on & ON about race, especially about blacks and jews.

I only skimmed the actual article and agree that it didn't seem to focus on race.

However, many commenters focused solely & only on race and were very bigoted and ugly and outspoken about it.

Why are conservatives always obsessed with race?

So what is up with the commentator DELAGAR'S comment?

Projection, much?

"So what is up with the commentator DELAGAR'S comment?"

Read the comments, "Anon." They're a vile pit of racism, combined with a hatred of anyone who is poor. It is obvious to those readers how this article was meant to be read -- and they read it that way.

If you have any other questions I can clear up, be sure to let me know.

By the way, as with the people Fershitz mentions, I have a friend who -- at 80 -- is on food stamps. I have another friend who is a quadriplegic. He's been confined to a wheelchair since he was 22. He makes a little money writing feature articles, but yes, he too is on food stamps, as well as medicaid.

These are the people RWD hates so rabidly. And RWD does it while going to church every Sunday and calling himself a Christian.

So, this RWF article that we are commenting on is a "vile lie"?

You'd be surprised at a lot of the good Christian things churchgoing RWD is your local community. When was the last time YOU worked a soup kitchen or collected winter jackets for the less fortunate? You liberals talk a great talk, but rarely walk your talk...but like to generalize and paint with broad strokes when putting down all RWDs out there.

*RWD is DOING IN your local community.

Oh? How so? Please DO 'splain' to me why I should seek the counsel of a self-proclaimed lounge chair authority such as yourself?

And per usual the discussion turns into personal attacks by rightwing commenters. Why is it that conservatives can't have a cordial exchange of ideas and be respectful of different POV?

CharlieE said...

So, this RWF article that we are commenting on is a "vile lie"?

Well, it's a lie. A lie is, by definition, vile, so yes, QED.

Who the heck is Mike Hunt? wtf

We used to have a regular troll here who went by the name of "Mike Hawk."

His comments rarely had anything to do with the content of the forward in question. Instead, he used his comments to attack other commenters here.

Did this article mention race? Why r liberals always obsessed with race?

If every Republican knew that the typical person enrolled in the SNAP program was an employed Caucasian, I can guarantee that they'd have no objections to the program.

You may draw whatever conclusions you like from that.

You liberals can draw your own conclusions about this, CharlieE.

Just another example of the projection y'all put out there when it comes to RACE: https://www.yahoo.com/news/bill-maher-apos-racist-tweet-203716168.html

Bill Maher is not a liberal.

Glad I could clear that up for you. As before, let me know what other questions or confusions you have. I live to serve.

delagar said...


By the way, I donate regularly to our local food bank and to other charities; I tutor kids at the local library (as do other professors at my university); and both that library *and* the university I work for regularly collect clothes (including winter jackets, yes), food, books, and other goods for the hungry and poor in our town, as well as for students in other countries.

It's a sign of RWD's ignorance that he thinks only "Christians" like him are socially active.

Maher most definetely leans to the Left on the majority of most social and political issues. He does hold a handful of conservative stances;he's in favor of the death panalty and gun ownership and other b.s. issues. He voted for Obama twice.In the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Maher initially endorsed Senator Bernie Sanders on February 5, 2016. Maher later announced his support for Hillary Clinton after Sanders had lost the Democratic Party primary elections.

Now, could you please serve me a slice of pepperoni pizza and a cold-ass beer in a frosty pint glass?

Chop, chop.

Anonymous said...

Wow, the fact that Maher endorsed Clinton over Trump makes him a "liberal"? LOL. Everyone to the left of Mussolini endorsed Clinton, because Trump is a brainless fraud who is in over his head.

Trump runs an entire campaign based on straight up racism, and somehow Bill Maher is proof that "liberals" are the "real racists"? Get the fuck outta here.

I am an actual liberal and am in no way, shape, or form represented by the utterly despised DNC.

No one in the media or the government speaks for me, and that has been true for nearly half a century.

Eric Holder said...

Let me see if I have this right....

Obama kills afghan kids with drones, but that's ok
Obama has no problem with thousands of black kids being killed each year because of gangs and drugs..
Mexican kids are killed with government guns (Fast and Furious) and that's ok....
But some drugged up patsy kills a few white kids and Obama suddenly needs to get rid of the 2nd amendment?
OK... I think I see it clearly now.. all hail our dear leader.
