For over two years and going on three now, the REPUBLICAN UNITED STATES CONGRESS under the leadership of a speaker and his dysfunctional republican cohorts, the same corrupt leader that passed out lobbyists tobacco checks on the House floor (John Boehner Rep / Ohio in 1995--1996), has denied access for HUMAN BEINGS to have there own (citizens) money from unemployment benefits to help them EAT food.
What this country has got and has under the surface is a right wing dysfunctional government that has done nothing for its citizens-----the media in there show and tell question period with this hypocrite should be asking what have you done to help this country EAT--I mean really what have you done to feed human beings, give out a list of the accomplishments which can be surmised on a post-it-note on feeding human beings in this country.
Then they should ask and see what kind of answer he gives for what this pizza owner is doing to help the homeless and those in need and what this corrupt house speaker has done -------nothing, except go on vacation last year to the tune of 244 days and collecting from the same homeless people there taxes for his pay base of $225,000 dollars, he should be reminded of this every time he gets in front of a "reporters" for his show and tell pony show to show and have him explain his outright disdain for this country and the feeding of its citizens
