Somewhere, Charles Dickens is chuckling quietly to himself. “Are there no workhouses? Is the treadmill not still in operation??” It’s amazing how quickly the Rethuglicans want to bring back the good old days of the 19th century. Vote 'em all out next November!

Huh. In 2015, one of the largest outbreaks of HIV in a rural area was in the State of Indiana. Pence was then Governor. His first response to the outbreak? Prayer. But, for some reason, that didn’t work. Then, he eventually backed a plan of needle exchanges. Grudgingly.

I wonder if those people are going to have to be put to work.

Repugs are disgusting con-men and cheats, so they naturally believe everybody else is a cheater & liar, just like them. This is sickening (pun intended)

Yeah, we should be handing out mops and brooms to those people in skilled nursing so that they can earn their room and board, nevermind if they are frail and bedridden.

This will be challenged in court. Ultimately, we need to win the election for these folks, the most vulnerable whom the GOP chooses to kick around all the time. Get out and vote!

How very Christian of them. For Jesus said, “Are there no workhouses, no debtors prisons? Did you not bring this poverty upon your own selves? Is it truly the fault and responsibility of the white and righteous to help your lazy black ass?” Ekkklesiastes 4:20

Can’t wait for the good people of West Virginia to get hit with this one. That’ll really take the bloom off their infatuation with Trump.
