The right says the war on poverty hasn't worked, even thought is has reduced poverty. On the other hand the war on drugs has be even less successful, they are still in favor of waging it.

Then I realized that he really is just a douchebag idiot...

Having been on welfare, I can tell you that the money you get for each additional child is a pittance and even having 15 kids isn't going to get your out of poverty when you are on welfare.

I had 3 daughters and an ex-husband that refused to pay child support. I was on welfare in the 1990s while going to go school and got $376 + $405 in food stamps (in Maryland) per month. Considering that your electric bill could be $200 a month in winter, that doesn't go very far. And $100 per person per month for food came out to $3 a day for each of us.

NO ONE makes it big while on welfare. After I finished school and got a job, it still took almost 10 years to dig out of the hole those years had put me in.

Have you ever asked yourself, “I wonder why Louie Gohmert ever ran for congress?”

Now you can know.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) revealed on Thursday that he had become a congressman because he was outraged that single women were having as many as 15 babies and getting welfare checks.

Hummm … but he’s pro life? And he’s anti- birth control being included on insurance?

Louie, Louie, Louie, you can’t have your pork rines and eat it, too

How do those who are so painfully misinformed get elected as leaders?
