Socialist Democrats after Food Stamps Again

First the socialist Democrats went after food stamp money to prop up the teachers union.  Most of the billions in that bill never were meant to save or create teacher jobs, it was meant to prop up teacher retirement plans.   Only in America can you take food out of people’s mouths to prop up teacher’s retirement plans.    Now Michelle Obama has a new nutrition initiative.  Of course take money from food stamps to pay for a nutrition initiative.

The House will soon consider an $8 billion child nutrition bill that’s at the center of the first lady’s “Let’s Move” initiative. Before leaving for the summer recess, the Senate passed a smaller version of the legislation that is paid for by trimming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps.

The nutrition bill is clearly a priority for Michelle Obama, who has made a push for healthy eating one of her signature policy issues at White House. When the House version of the nutrition bill won committee approval in July, it marked the first time she weighed in publicly on pending legislation.

“It’s very sad. I think it’s just illustrating what dire straits our federal government budget is in,” said Sheila Zedlewski, director of the Urban Institute’s Income and Benefits Center. “It’s unprecedented to raid one safety net program to feed another.”

The socialist administration of Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrats is destroying America.  Now they are taking money from nutrition programs to bailout teacher unions and from one program to have money for Michelle Obama’s nutrition initiative.
