You've gotta be sick to pull this off, but then, they are more efficient that the Democrats

The next time some hack tells you that the Republican party really represents the interests of regular 'Mericans, you can point out the following:

The party in power would rather cut food stamps, funding for the only health care system the poor will ever see, student loans, agriculture conservation spending, and payments to farmers.

Which farmers?

I'll put this way, Archer Daniels Midland need not worry. A measure to trim spending on rich farmers failed.

Farmer Brown on the other hand, worry.
