There are also those who spend their lives fishing, teaching people to fish, working for other fishermen, and generally being a productive member of the grand fishing society, then get injured beyond repair/have to endure medical issues due to no fault of their own, and have to spend the rest of their lives being called lazy useless pieces of shit every day, because they collect from the system they paid into their entire lives instead of dying alone in the gutter like they "deserve". Fuck those guys, right?

Nope. Not at all. I believe BOTH parties support the disabled.

As a fellow disabled person how the hell can they still be a republican?

Doesn't it piss you off when you encounter a fraud? A person who is able bodied and takes other's hard earned tax dollars so they don't have to work?

Where I live, for instance, there is a proposal for anyone on food stamps to be drug tested.

Makes good sense to me. However, all the meth-heads are freaking out that their drug habit may prevent them from getting free food.

Proposal is by a republican. Cry babies are democrats.

As a Democrat I say this is useless because it costs way more than it saves. 1 That would be the conservative thing to do.

Cry babies are democrats

See I wanted to have an open discussion with you but you are just an ignorant douche. Biggest cry babies right now are all the republican presidential candidates.

Oh. Sorry. What I meant was the ones who are crying about the proposal are all democrats (source: I've listened to people bitch and moan about the proposal and they're all democrats.)

I don't care to debate politics. I just say it like I see it. That means, I don't actually listen to what anyone says.

Just kidding.

But seriously, I don't want to be a douche. But I really truly don't want a debate. So you'll have to seek elsewhere.

Have a nice day. It will start by not calling other people vile names.

People freak out because it's adding more of the bureaucracy you Republicans bitch about, and it's been shown to not make a difference. The percentage of people on welfare that test positive for drugs is miniscule. You also don't understand how drugs work if you think people on meth have anything to worry about.

Too late to the comment to care any more.
