Moore's Poverty Increase Among Nation's Highest
Is it just me or do all these people under the "poverty line" have full cable/ internet /smart phones/new cars...? now I know times are hard, and they are hard for everyone but I think people often forget to factor in all the aid that people under the poverty line get. Hardly any taxes, food stamps, college tuition(if you go to Sandhills you can get thousands of dollars a semester and it might cost 2 grand at the most to attend school with books), government housing, etc, etc I think if you do the math people under the poverty line end up well above it...The less fortunate are not getting ignored, Our definition of poverty is just very skewed...

Political Porn
Whatever. that Cartoon was right on! There is nothing wrong with that cartoon. step back and take a look at this situation please! If you cant see how ridiculous the Left looks trying to Blame this on Sarah Palin, Guns, and Conservatives then you can't look at an issue objectively!This is such a political move, the Dem's are bleeding and the only way to stop the bleeding is start up a false witch hunt. And if they really wanted the conversation to get toned down. why dont our leaders in office try actually paying more attention to our constitution, and quit shoving stimulus bills and UNWANTED healthcare down the American Peoples throats...
