Well, well, well. Seems Donny Ferguson, the numbnut assistant to Rep. Steve Stockman who claimed it was easy to live on food stamps per the Food Stamp Challenge that Democrats had undertaken, didn't actually live off of the food he bought. Nope, he had to take a flight during the week and didn't want to fork over the money it would have cost to take his food with him as extra baggage. In a nutshell, he fed his smug face as usual.
Surprise, surprise--though I suspected as much in a previous post. Had Mr. Ferguson any moral courage whatsoever, he would have went hungry for the remainder of the week, like any SNAP recipient would have had to do had they made the same mistake.
So not only is Mr. Ferguson an asshole, he's a lying asshole as well.
And once again, he has plenty of company among his fellow republicans.

Lies republicans tell us
Someday some scientific researcher should do a study as to exactly what gene it is that republicans are missing that gives them about half the I.Q. of your average ass pimple.
Seriously.
Donny Ferguson, some dim-witted numbnuts who works for Congressman Steve Stockman (R-where else?-Texas) decided he was going to "prove" that eating on $31.50 was easily done (much like the 26 Democrats who took the same challenge but for far more altruistic purposes than degrading hungry people). He sent out a list of what he bought (seen here), said he actually only spent $27 and some change on it, and reported at the end of the week that he felt fine and dandy.
Accepting as fact that he actually did eat only what he purchased (I have doubts that there is any republican has the moral courage to follow through on such a challenge, and would not be surprised at all if he ate as normal and claimed to have eaten only what was on the list), exactly how stupid do you have to be to realize that a) what he purchased was hardly nutritional and certainly not something anyone who loved their child would also feel good about feeding them regularly, and b) there is a fucking world of difference between eating like that for one week and eating like that for months on end.
In the end, all that Ferguson proves is that it takes a special kind of asshole to mock people who are going hungry, and apparently the republican party is full of them.
