Bill Kristol: Not ‘The End Of The World’ For Women And Infants Losing Food During Shutdown
Will someone please kick the shit out of this asshole?
Nobody will starve if Republicans drag the government shutdown out long enough to merge the fight over funding levels with brinkmanship over the debt ceiling, conservative pundit Bill Kristol predicted Wednesday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. “I don’t think it’s the end of the world,” Kristol said of the shutdown, explaining that “we will go right into the debt ceiling negotiation anyway.”
“It’s not going to be the end of the world, honestly, even if you’re on nutrition assistance from the federal government,” Kristol added. “I believe that no one is going to starve in Arkansas because of the shutdown.”
Kristol’s downplaying of the impacts on hunger came in response to Huffington Post reporter Sam Stein’s observation that the delaying strategy Kristol recommended might help Republicans, “but those two weeks that you wait it out are consequential for a whole number of people.” “Maybe in your world it’s not the end of the world,” Stein said. “Eighty-five thousand people are losing nutritional assistance in Arkansas. That’s not inside the beltway, that’s in Arkansas. Thirteen Head Start programs are closing in Connecticut. That’s not inside the beltway.”

handed him his ass, reminding him that for the people affected it IS a big deal.
Crystal then said he had better clarify so he wouldnt get another "lecture" from Stien.
You could tell by his face he was filling his diaper because of this little upstart.
And this does affect real people. My mom cant go to the base to get groceries. $300.00 there is $500.00 at Albertsons or Safeway.
My state disability workers husband was furloughed.
There is just no way a psychopath like Kristol can be considered mentally healthy.
