    " To:Oh Geez,
    I forgot to mention that alot of these disabled people worked a long time and contributed to this pool of money. It is not just the working people of today. What gets me the most is you have young women who are capable of working but instead they are too busy making more babies to increase their welfare check and food stamps and whatever other assistance like Medicade that they can getand pay for nothing. Now that burns me up. After one mistake you should be cut off from government assisted programs....stop abusing. "

    " To:Oh Geez,
    In reading your post, I would want to respect you and think that you are not speaking about disabled people in a negative way but in a general way. This is the problem. So many people do lie and cheat the government that it makes it very difficult for those that really do need it can't get it. It is very sad for those that have to constantly have to fight the government for something they have worked and paid into to be turned away constantly. Our government is unfair! "

Get real people get a job...NO MORE HANDOUTS! "

    " Big business loves the illegals. This is why this election we have no choice. If you notice all 3 candidates voted for this bill. As said before Democrats, Republicans it is all the same. All the politicians who vote for this bill should be impeached and are in violation of the Constitution. They are required to protect the sovereignty of America. "

    " Way to go Landrieu! We can always depend on you to be a great liberal while you are in Washington! I'm being facetious of course.

    Please remember voters that Mary is only a conservative when she comes back to Louisiana, while she is in Washington she is one of the biggest liberals there. "
