If hunger is a problem in America, then why do we have an obesity problem among the people who we say have a hunger program?
~ Rick Santorum at a LeMars, IA town hall
What a relief that he’s only polling around 5%!

I get it - you don’t need food stamps if you are fat. I read this type of stuff all the time from upper crust people. Too bad they do not educate themselves on the matter. Maybe if they improved the food, lower income people would not be that way. Requiring people to buy something nutritious with the money instead of letting them buy soda or cookies would help. But big boxed and bottled franken-food companies would not support that, so it won’t happen.
