Some of the largest cuts would be borne by WIC, which provides nutritional support for women and infants, cut by $747 million, and training and employment grants to the states, ticketed for a $1.4-billion reduction.

In addition, Republicans proposed a 43% cut in border security fencing and a 53% reduction in an account used to fund cleanup of the Great Lakes

1. The Republicon War on Women

is ratcheting up...

They sputtered out lamely with their degenerate effort to 'redefine rape.' I guess they figure they can do some real damage now attacking WIC.

lunatics) means the people who get pitched overboard first so as to ensure room in the lifeboats for the rich old fat white guys.
