Republican Logic at Work...

[Speck Tater]

In 1930, after the crash, having no other way to earn money, hopeless and out of work people, dressed in what few pitiful rags they had left, resorted to standing on street corners trying to sell apples to passers-by just to make a few pennies to feed their starving children.

Republican president Herbert Hoover annouced not only that the economy was strong, but that "Many persons have left their jobs for the more profitable one of selling apples."

Apparently Republican logic has a looooong history of the kind of madness we are once again witnessing from the White House.

3. "Nobody is starving"

In 1932 people living in shanty towns in New York's Central Park scavanged for food scraps in the city dump. In Philedelphia there was "slow starvation and progressive disintegration of family life." In California, children were dying of starvation every day.

Our Republican president told the newspapers: "Nobody is actually starving. The hobos, for example, are better fed than they have ever been. One hobo in New York city got ten meals in one, day."
