GOP hunger games

Hmm.  I wonder what Jesus would say to this?

In Southeast Washington Ryan met Bishop Shirley Holloway, who gave up a comfortable career in the U.S. Postal Service to minister to drug addicts, ex-offenders, the homeless — people for whom government benefits can serve only to hasten their downfall, Holloway said:

“Paul wants people to dream again,” Holloway said of Ryan. “You don’t dream when you’ve got food stamps.”

It’s very hard to sleep at all when your stomach is rumbling from hunger. So technically she’s right.

It’s always interesting how Paul Ryan looks for and finds “Christian” leaders who sound oddly like Ayn Rand.
