Dems may use food stamp money to pay for Michelle Obama's nutrition initiative , page 1

Democrats who reluctantly slashed a food stamp program to fund a state aid bill may have to do so again to pay for a top priority of first lady Michelle Obama.

The House will soon consider an $8 billion child nutrition bill that’s at the center of the first lady’s “Let’s Move” initiative. Before leaving for the summer recess, the Senate passed a smaller version of the legislation that is paid for by trimming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps.

Democrats reluctantly slashed a food stamp program, you read that right?
So, don't just go out and start Blaming the Republican's.

The proposed cuts would come on top of a 13.6 percent food stamp reduction in the $26 billion Medicaid and education state funding bill that President Obama signed this week.
Food stamps have made multiple appearances on the fiscal chopping block because Democrats have few other places to turn to offset the cost of legislation.

Offset The Cost of Legislation and Why Do You Ask, Do They Need To Offset The Cost, Well Here Comes Your Answer and You Obama Supporters Aren't Going To Like It or Are You....

Party leaders raided the budget to find off-setting tax increases and spending cuts to pay for their top legislative priorities, including the roughly $900 billion health-care law. Congressional pay-as-you-go rules require lawmakers to offset all non-emergency spending.

Yes, you read it right, $900 billion health-care law.

neo96, Again you're right, With all the damage he and his cronies have done.
It is amazing he has any supporters left, most of the democrats running for Office don't want him any where near them, Look at all the supporters he's stabbed in the back. The Gay Community, Hell, I really don't care if they marry or not, HEY, if they want to pay Alimony and Child Support when they divorce that's for them to decide. We're still in both war zones, he didn't bring home our troops, more bail outs coming at the tax payers expense and how about the small business person and their tax rate?
That's just a few.
I know of no Transparency in our Government and I didn't see the Health Care debates on CSPAN, did you?

This POTUS is a Complete Disgrace.

YES, She Is A BIGOT, I've seen her statements about Fat People and Fat Children and what needs to be done about it.

I have not watched T. V. in 15 years, I read many, many news out lets and decide. I'm Not A Fox News Hater or a MSNBC Hater, But Then Again, I'm Not a Blatant Liberal, Obama Follower either nor a Republican, I do whats best for me and my family and what we like to do, not what some, I Just Got Famous, Now All You Little People Must Do As I Say And Listen To Me.

You tell the American People what's Best For Them In Your Mind and You Do The Opposite, Yes, That's a Bigot.

Do I as an Ex Smoker give in to the Temptation Of A Marlboro Red when I smell one, NO!
Do I as an Ex Heavy Drinker give in to the Temptation Of A Shot Of Whiskey, NO!

So, if your health congest about a weight problem for your child or yourself, I think you'd pass on the Ice-Cream.

I mean, Come On, Their Cutting Food Stamps to Help Pay For Obama-Care.

Edit for Spelling.

I'd like to know exactly what Michelle Obama's nutrition initiative is.

Almost all foods in the United states are fulled with hormones, pesticides and other harmful chemicals.

Two recent threads that talk about these things are:

www.abovetopsecret.com...
Canada & US Have The Most Dangerous Food in the World ( Lots of details here)

and

www.abovetopsecret.com...
Senate bill makes it illegal to grow, share, trade or sell homegrown food.

What is Mrs Obama going to do to those foods to make them safe? Make the FDA remove these harmful additives that is killing Americans daily?

Just exactly what is her definition of "nutrition" ?

JohnPhoenix, Those two thread you mentioned have really great information in them, and the Queen mrs obama needs to read them both.

Exactly what is her definition of "nutrition" you ask.
What ever POPS into her head that day.
What does she really know about nutrition? What are her credentials.
