Guess who said this-- an 'R' or a 'D' ?

‘Hunger is not always a negative as the report indicates. Without hunger or the threat of hunger probably half of humanity would not get up in the morning and go to work. Hunger is one of the great motivators of humanity. It is one of the tools that I used as a parent to encourage my children to do their chores as young children. When used properly, hunger can motivate people so they can experience the joy of work and accomplishment.’”

What an asshole!!! :grr:

[MADem]

1. He's an asshole who can't spell the word CHORES, either!! Which makes him a stupid asshole! nt

[Breeze54]

3. I think the misspell was the bloggers fault but

this guy is definately an asshole and he also thinks kids going to public school is cruel!

[Donald Ian Rankin]

2. OK, now I'm confused.

It sounds like a stereotypical Republican sentiment, so I assumed it must be a Democrat or why would you post it?

But following the link, it seems it really was a Republican, Steven Thayn of Idaho, unless I misread.

What have I missed?

[Breeze54]

5. Why do you think you missed anything?

:shrug:

I asked a question. You answered it.

I posted it for the hell of it. :hi:

[MADem]

7. He's an asshole, you haven't missed a thing. He has a lot in common with Ron Paul, too. NT

[LeftishBrit]

4. I had a look, and wish I hadn't...

It was so REVOLTING!!!!

I hope he never gets anywhere politically.... Ugggghhhh!!!!

[annabanana]

6. He apparently fights funding for kindergarten & pre-K because

"it forces women out of the home and into the workplace" (I don't quite get how)

[applegrove]

8. Sounds like this person needs to starve himself of neocons. He's spending way

too much time with the "bad is good" crowd.

[Breeze54]

12. He's the king of rethug a-holes in Idaho!

Read that blog link I posted. :crazy:

[NMMNG]

9. One of those "privation is good for the soul" twits.

They're typically more in favor of depriving others than themselves, though.

[TahitiNut]

10. I'm shocked ... shocked I tell you that ...

... such a thing would be said by an Idaho "Arbeit Macht Freude" Republican.

C'mon ... they're even more batshit insane than Utah Republicans. :shrug:

[Breeze54]

11. lmao!

I just cant believe this asshole even got elected!! :wtf:

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. OMG here's another idiotic statement from that link:

“A deregulated system would improve education. If they were really interested in the children, they would call for the children to stay home with their parents until they were 10 years old. I am tired of the same old retoric.”

[Breeze54]

14. He belongs to a group that wants to separate school & state!

...he signs on as a supporter of the http://www.schoolandstate.org/home.htm">Alliance for the Separation of School & State!.

His statement there says,

“I am a school teacher, farmer, lover of freedom. I cannot see how freedom can long exist if the government
has the power to determine what the people should know. Why I Signed: Freedom is dependant upon the people telling the government what to do. If the government controls what the people should know, this upsets this relationship and the state becomes all powerful.”

He's batshit :crazy: !!

He's right up your alley, proud2Blib? :sarcasm:

:rofl:

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. I am fairly familiar with that group

They have invaded my state. And yes, they are batshit crazy.

[Breeze54]

16. I had never heard of them, until today...

although I should have guessed as much, that they're organized. :silly:

:hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

17. They have chapters all over the US

and they have elected state reps doing their dirty work for them.

[Breeze54]

18. They don't appear to be in my state...

at least it isn't an active link on their website.

I feel bad for you and the rest of the USA who has to deal with these idiots!

OOPS!! I spoke to soon!!
