Seems to be the hallmark of the Republicans psyche. When others get govt funds, it is a handout. When they do, they deserve it. I can't tell you all the Republicans living off Social Security, Disability, and govt pensions that I've seen complain about entitlements and federal spending. They are never grateful for anything and instead see themselves as entitled. They display an astounding level of cognitive dissonance.

I wonder what Bob Dole thought about his party as he watched them vote today?
