Really? So you were okay with stripping the least of these of their established health care safety net when you drew up your revisionist-history health care resolution?
The red words in that book you tote to church are not optional. They’re pretty important. Here are some you are apparently unfamiliar with:
31 When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, 33 and he will put the sheep at his right hand and the goats at the left. 34 Then the king will say to those at his right hand, “Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” 37 Then the righteous will answer him, “Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? 38 And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? 39 And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?” 40And the king will answer them, “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.”
Yes, Republicans hate poor people. That is why Senator Ron Ramsey plans to cut out Pre-K and cut teachers salaries by 15% if elected Governor. As you know, only poor children use the Pre-K program. The children can't vote for him and who cares about teachers? Not Ron Ramsey!

Wish that this would get to the congress so that they can at least see what people think of them. I doubt that they would care though.

We Get It. Y’all Hate Poor People.

Monday night the state House passed a resolution to urge the United States Congress not to pass bills that have already become law – sponsored by someone who thinks Medicare is for poor people.

Between this and Rep. Casada’s callous display in the House Subcommittee for Employee Affairs, I’m starting to believe that all the Tennessee Republican Party is up to is slapping the downtrodden in the face. You’re certainly not fiscally conservative, if you’re willing to waste time and money on the Hill writing up redundant bills and redundantly litigating against the federal government to get earned media on the taxpayer dime.
What was that you said in subcommittee, Rep. Casada? That we shouldn’t take money from those who are struggling and “by force of government” give it to others? I guess that only applies when we’re talking about helping the poor – not when it’s being wasted by grandstanding.
What was that about moral compasses, Rep. Lynn?
