Barack Obama

it was a reasonable and responsible idea. It didn't get much support, but it may just have been one of those days.

As far as this thread, tears all the way. I have friends for whom it was specially hurtful. The lack of gun control is something they feel is endangering THEIR lives and liberty. Take that, Libertarian gun fanatics!

Following that up in our talk with the government shut down that will affect so many, likely these same families grieving in D.C, they were EXASPERATED.

They contribute time, food and money to a food bank near them and they were extremely worried about not being able to meet the need even in such a tiny place as they live. People are not being helped by the 'do nothing - but evil' GOP Congress.

I read an OP-ED to them, that said the food stamp vote was irresponsible and they NAMED NAMES. No Democrat voted to cut the people off, but three of the state GOP did. As I read the names, including one they supported in a past election, and who voted against feeding the poor, elderly, disabled, over the speakerphone, I heard the yelling in the back ground as we were on the speaker.

They are FURIOUS. They will be working to throw ALL the GOP out in 2014 for pulling these stunts.
