A New Mexico woman's testimony about how she's been getting food-stamp benefits from American taxpayers has gone online.
A commentary as Twitchy explained, "Democrats are doing what they ALWAYS do, they are bringing out the sob stories about how Republicans will push grandma over a cliff or some other happy horse manure. This time, though, instead of healthcare, it's food stamps."
Social media commenters said, "Has she tried working?" and "THIRTY YEARS?" before one pointed out, "When I heard that she's been milking the taxpayers for THIRTY YEARS my heart went into my throat."
The commentary explained media interests are pushing "sob stories" as Democrats continue to prevent the federal government from opening up, so that programs like SNAP, to provide supplemental nutrition to the needy, is funded again.
Democrats have demanded Congress raid taxpayers' pockets to the tune of $1.5 trillion for public broadcasting propaganda efforts, health care for illegal aliens, and more, before they'll agree to a GOP plan that would have kept the government funding at the same levels for a couple of weeks.
