Those who conduct the discussion about food stamps in terms of “lobster-eating surfers” are as irresponsible as those who frame it in terms of “19 million starving children.” Both groups turn our politics into a circus where the win goes to those who scream the loudest and make the most outrageous, drama-queenish claims.

In the meanwhile, the very real problems that lie equally far from lottery-winning surfers and starving children do not even get mentioned, let alone resolved.

    Words DO mean something. Here is a recent joke I found:

    During sex, a man suddenly stops & remains motionless. He starts again n after some time stops to remain motionless once again!!
    His girlfriend asks what the hell are you doing? Man says I have seen this new technique on an internet porn site its called ‘buffering’
