He wants to stop free lunch programs because it "doesn't show an improvement" in their performance.

He wants to starve the elderly, children, and others in need but give the military more money.

Fuck him real hard. His kids have never gone hungry.

1. The party of Christian family values strikes again

[whathehell]

6. I think they're referred to as 'family' values"

period. Please don't indict Christianity with their decidedly un-Christian actions.

[Freethinker65]

9. Agreed. They are neither Christian nor family values though they claim to be the Party of both

[whathehell]

11. I have never heard from the Party refer to itself as such

The Party itself would never be so formally non-inclusive. They have donors of all religions.

[LiberalLovinLug]

17. The "Christian" is silent

[whathehell]

19. It's "silent" because, as I said, they have Jewish and even Muslim

members and doners & I doubt they would appreciate being "left out".

[haele]

15. The C-Street "Family" values

Mealy-mouthed Randroids and wanna-be Birchers who pretend they aren't so they will seem acceptable to the general public, but still believe there's a natural superiority in North Eastern WASP cultural elitism that defines "True Values" for America.

To me, True Value is a hardware store.
And these pretentious boobs who claim to be so much "wiser" in the ways of governance are dumber than all the hammers I could buy at one. And provide me with less value.

Haele

[whathehell]

16. They're asshats

but I don't believe even they think they represent the entire party. The Progressive Caucus in the democratic party, for instance, doesn't represent the entire party, although I, personally, wish it were.

[jmowreader]

33. Which of the Five Families have values that bad?

[whathehell]

45. You tell me..

[jmowreader]

47. It was a rhetorical question, but you knew that

At this point in our nation's history, the Mafia is less corrupt than our civilian leadership.

[whathehell]

48. Yes, and my answer was in the same spirit.

[Moostache]

56. It was Barzini all along...Tattaliga's a pimp, he could have never outfought Santino.

For the uninitiated, in 'The Godfather" universe (by Mario Puzo):
Corleone family (residing in Manhattan, Brooklyn, The Bronx and Long Island)
Barzini family (residing in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, The Bronx, and Staten Island)
Tattaglia family (residing in Brooklyn and Manhattan)
Stracci family (residing in Manhattan, Staten Island and New Jersey)
Cuneo family (residing in The Bronx, Manhattan and Upstate New York)

In the real world, the Five Families are as follows:
Genovese family
Gambino family
Bonanno family
Lucchese family
Colombo family

The sad thing? Those 5 fiction families and the 5 actual mob families had more honor than the current President and his bomb-throwing cabal of lunatics by a country-mile.

[WinkyDink]

39. MANSON FAMILY VALUES.

[elmac]

25. the so called moral majority

the anti Christs who think their going to heaven but have a hot spot waiting in hell.

[ck4829]

2. Don't be hungry

[Hayabusa]

3. My grandma briefly used Meals on Wheels, I benefited from reduced-cost school lunch

I feeling metaphorically homicidal right now...

[NightWatcher]

4. I don't do metaphors. If I were in that room, I'd be on the news tonight

[Hayabusa]

5. I just added it so I don't get a knock on my door...

[LOL Lib]

10. Wise move my friend. I share your feelings though.

These scum don't deserve to be treated as kindly as is the old liberal way. Rest assured they do not wish us well and would exterminate us all given the chance. I'm glad to know that there are people like you who would stand beside me and literally fight for the digniiity that every man, woman, and child of misfortune deserves.

[WinkyDink]

40. I'm with you, NightWatcher. PAST time for Mme Guillotine.

[sammythecat]

58. This continuing outrage

is becoming pretty damn intolerable. What to do, what to do. By the end of last night I found myself reading about the French Revolution. The attitude of TPTB have toward the general population in this country runs from outright contempt at worst, to total indifference at best. There isn't a lick of empathy or compassion among any of them and they are NOT going to change. Thoroughly rotten people.

[yeoman6987]

55. My grandparents used it

It's not even free so I don't know why GOP thinks it's a welfare program. It's just a program that brings meals for those who can't go out to get food. My grandparents used it especially in dead of winter.

[LOL Lib]

7. Assholes!

The lot of them need to be fucked right off the planet and completely out of existence. They have no compassion for their fellow man, therefore they should not be afforded a single protection under modern law. They don't even deserve the protections we offer animals.

[DeminPennswoods]

8. I'd really like to see a lawyer

go to court and have Mulvaney and every other republican who espouses these views made a legal financial guardian of every individual hurt by cutting food assistance. I'd love to see the look on their faces when they see a big deduction from their paychecks and/or bank accounts for child/senior/disabled support each month. THAT would be the accountability these creeps are always yammering about.

[titaniumsalute]

12. My wife teaches in a school with 70% eligible for free lunch

For many it is the ONLY food they get all day.

[anneboleyn]

26. According to Mulvaney they don't need food! Being able to eat food has zero benefits according to

this asshole.

[smirkymonkey]

13. "Doesn't show an improvement in their performance"??

What a cold fucking thing to say! What does he want them to do, go out and compete in triathalons? It's keeping them alive for god's sake. I think I'm about to blow a gasket. These people are so evil and clueless!

[PatSeg]

36. Yeah

Why on earth feed people if all it does it get rid of their hunger? "We'll feed you as long as WE get something in return."

[spanone]

14. he's a spoiled shit sandwich

fuck him

[wiggs]

18. Will this get millions of us into the streets and in front of legislator offices? The French

protest by the millions if the price of a subway ride or cigarettes goes up. We should be on top of this

[wiggs]

20. Art of the Deal

propose something heinous and through negotiation you can get something only halfway heinous.

[Nwgirl503]

21. What I really think about all this would get me put on a list

On not Santa's good list, if you know what I mean.

[NightWatcher]

22. Brb, the Secret Service is knocking at my door.

[BlueJac]

23. The Party of NO

pure hatred from a GOP President that hates people and loves the Billionaires!!!!!! Fuck Donald Trump!!! Grab him by HIS pussy and go after him like a BITCH! Pop a couple Tic-Tacs first. The can't resist you then! What a fucking animals we have as President!!! The WORST all time!!!

[33taw]

24. How does this impact farmers?

[murielm99]

27. Why are you asking that?

Farmers may be impacted if Mexico decides to stop buying our corn. It has been suggested that they go to other countries. They are our third largest trading partner.

I believe farmers will be impacted if this goes through. Crashing the agricultural economy would not be good for this country.

[33taw]

31. Because farmers overwhelmingly supported Trump - especially in the Midwest.

I wonder if they realize this impact?

[murielm99]

49. My husband is a retired farmer

who is a lifelong Democrat. We have three farmers on our county Democratic Central committee. Farmers in Minnesota tend to be Democrats. I should know, because that is where my farm family came from originally.

I have not spoken to any of the farmers around here who supported trump. I don't know what they think.

I am not going to say that it serves them right. We are all in danger. Our democracy is on life support right now.

[33taw]

63. I only pointed out they will be impacted.

I live in rural Wisconsin and if I see one more Trump or "Hillary for Prison" sign I may puke. Farmers voted overwhelmingly for Trump in IA, NE and WI, I don't think many of them realized that they are part of the programs that are considered expendable.

I am sad that Meals on Wheels may get hit, but nobody even mentions WIC, which is critical for many children.

[Afromania]

28. I can't even begin to understand these people

They are so fucking awful. They push this myth about how good and noble they all are. They do shit like this that flies right up in the face of the bible and tell you how religious they are. Where in the bible did Jesus means test and prerequisite the people he'd help?

[Moostache]

57. "Do as we say, not as we do"...just read this list in the voice of true-believer conservative...

Don't be non-white....that means you are less-favored by god!

(Which really doesn't make any sense at all when you think about the reason caucasian skin is pale in comparison to non-caucasians; but when you reject the theory of evolution, I guess you can't realize that the 'natural state' of human skin pigmentation undoubtedly started as darker hues and only became lighter as migrations from Africa took humans to areas with less intense UV radiation from the sun...the Egyptians that worshipped the "sun" were more grounded in reality than anyone who worships the "son".)

Don't be poor ... because that is another "curse from god" ... prosperity gospel and such, ya know!

Don't be sick or in need, EVER ... because that's just selfish making the society use resources on sustaining your life when those resources are needed in tax cuts for yacht maintenance and grounds keepers from Mexico or housekeepers from Guatemala that we can force to work for slave wages and live in constant fear of deportation.

Don't be curious or intellectually open ... because that requires things like NPR, PBS, CPB and schools that again take money away from deserving rich, white people and give it to undeserving, poor black, brown and yellow people (fuck those red natives, we already gave them casinos, amirite?)

Don't care about water, air, climate or sustainability ... we'll all be dead before the really bad stuff happens and caring about it now means I would have to pay for the unborn millions of other people's children and we can't abide THAT...no sir.

[Ray Bruns]

29. Just when you think you have every ghoulish thought to come from a republican.

You get this. "Meals on Wheels isn't showing results". There you have it folks. The republican mindset. It is not Christian. It is not humanist. Kind of like the terminator. It doesn't feel pity, sympathy, empathy or remorse. It is cold blooded, money and power hungry sadism

[WinkyDink]

42. This creature of Hell might have done the country a huge favor. There's NO pretending now.

[janterry]

52. I agree

and I thought his answers were refreshing. Sure, there was some spin - but most of it was we want to give money back to the rich. Clear as day.

It makes the choice - going forward (in the next election) - really clear. The republicans want to fund the rich. The democrats are interested in the middle class and the poor. You decide..............

[GWC58]

30. To paraphrase Stonewall Jackson; Fuck em,

fuck em all! The party of "family values" is really the party of "we'll fuck you over anyway and every way and everywhere we choose. As for the fools that voted for this clown, well, my sympathy is not for you. At any rate they'll place blame everywhere except for where it belongs. Many of those folks are, simply put, "dumber than a box of rocks." What district does this asswipw, asshole represent?

[IcyPeas]

32. Fuck Mulvaney, Spicer, Ryan.... and their green neckties

how dare you wear green neckties in honor of Ireland? Do any of you know the history of Ireland and famine and immigration?

fuck you all

[bronxiteforever]

50. +1000

[Zambero]

34. So what would "improvement" look like to Mulvaney?

Malnutrition, rapid deterioration of health, and therefore faster admission to cemeteries?

[mchill]

35. If I didn't already know they were evil Republicans

I would have not believed what I heard. PURE EVIL

[Buns_of_Fire]

37. They keep saying the country should be run like a business.

So there you have it. "Sorry Granny, but the 75-80 demographic isn't as profitable as we'd like, so we're shutting down that division. We thank you for your years of service, and we'll give you a prayer of recommendation for your next life. Please have all personal belongings removed by noon."

[Fast Walker 52]

38. he is a fucking horror show freak

Read Pierce

http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/news/a53897/trump-budget-meals-wheels/

[WinkyDink]

41. THIS...THIS might just be the REVELATORY tipping point. No wonder Spicer hid in the wings.

[Hortensis]

43. Nightwatcher, "doesn't show improvement" belongs in quotes.

Don't inadvertently spread their lies.

My husband's a Meals on Wheels volunteer, and the lack of fragile elderly and otherwise disabled people quietly starving alone in their homes and being able to recuperate at home instead of running up huge taxpayer bills in nursing facilities are all the "improvements," ever required for that program.

All these programs have proven benefits, very notably and importantly school meal programs.

[NightWatcher]

46. Done

[xxqqqzme]

44. In 2015, Mulvaney voted against a government-funding resolution,

which would have prevented a government shutdown, in part because it included funding for Planned Parenthood. Explaining his vote, Mulvaney said, "This is not about women's health. It’s about trafficking in pieces of dead children. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mick_Mulvaney

He is a member of the tea party caucus

[Faux pas]

51. How about

he never gets fucked ever again?

[Drifter]

53. I support massive increases in military spending ...

Just so long as they start delivering meals to the poor and elderly.
"Relax Mom, there a blackhawk helicopter in the back yard. Looks like they are bring you some soup"

Reality:
The US could cut military spending in half, and we would still have the the most bloated military on the planet.

Cheers

54. This is Why a Business Model Doesn't Fit With Many Social Programs

This is but the latest egregious example of using a profit model for social programs. Government and business are very different entities and this latest attempt to make them the same fails miserably. In a just society, not everything should be for profit.

[JPPaverage]

59. Now it's personal

There are going to be a LOT of pissed off people over this one. I mean grabbing guns and storming the WH pissed off. This neighborhood is a working class neighborhood and nearly every kid has free school lunch every day. I don't mind tax money going to this and the neighbors don't either. And since this is a working class area and there are a lot of people who hunt, there are (legal) guns in nearly every house. I hope these stupid ass repukes know what they are getting into. It won't be pretty, that's for sure.

[Honeycombe8]

60. The purpose of free lunches it not to improve performance.

It's to help with feeding poor children who can't afford food, AND to improve performance.

To know if it helps improve performance, you'd have to starve them first for years to compare performance to current performance.

[Initech]

61. I hate these fucking assholes more every single day.

[niyad]

62. hey, mulvaney, you fucking ass--google it--14 million hits about that very subject.
