All hail the Foodstamp President! 
The American public’s dependence on the federal government shot up 23% in just two years under President Obama, with 67 million now relying on some federal program, according to a newly released study by the Heritage Foundation.
The conservative think tank’s annual Index of Dependence on Government tracks money spent on housing, health, welfare, education subsidies and other federal programs that were “traditionally provided to needy people by local organizations and families.â€
The increase under Obama is the biggest two-year jump since Jimmy Carter was president, the data show.
The rise was driven mainly by increases in housing subsidies, an expansion in Medicaid and changes to the welfare system, along with a sharp rise in food stamps, the study found.

The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

Your lack of respect is disturbing, but I'm not surprised. The Right Wing has no respect whatsoever for people Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck demonize as outsiders, illegitimate, unamerican, communist, maoist, tribalist Kenyans

Huh? I read that twice and I don't find anything disrespectful. Not that combat never posts things in that category but this is probably the wrong post to make your comment.
