How the 'Christian' (sic) Right treats people

"Every month, 80-year-old Sally Shaver pays someone to drive her to the Harvest Hope Food Bank in Columbia, S.C., to pick up a box of fresh produce, baked goods, dry cereals, juice, canned goods and cheese. "It really helps me out because after paying for my rent, phone bill and medication, I barely have enough for food," she says. "If I could work, I would, but I have an artificial knee and a pacemaker, and I can't get around." Shaver, who worked as a nurse's aide for most of her life, brings in $451 a month in social security. Her fixed income qualifies her for the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), which is designed to improve the health and nutrition of low-income senior citizens, pregnant women, postpartum mothers, infants and children. Last year, CSFP provided 536,196 people with a monthly box of food. Bush's proposed budget for 2007 calls for a nationwide elimination of the entire program".

Not much needs to be said or written when it comes to the phony-Christian rightwing in this country. They're despicable in the way they treat the poor in this country. These despicable phony bastards sit around waving their pom poms cheering on their treasonous hero who wastes $300 million a day in Iraq and clap when he cuts funding for the poor and the elderly. And they think they're Christians. I hope they like the extreme heat.
