I don't have any concern one way or the other regarding food stamp usage. If you're going to imply that food stamps shouldn't be allowed to purchase various forms of junk food, then those forms of food should be taxed for everyone. If you're going to imply that food stamps are some giant drain on taxpayer dollars, perhaps some other forms of 'waste' should also be looked at.
And yes, if a politician makes a suggestion on a course of action, he should be held accountable for his / her stupidity when they haven't thought of what the outcome would be. If you want to call that a "hate republican" thing, be my guest. I'd call it a bit more all-encompassing.
