Buzz Aldrin is the baddest man on the planet for doing this. Have you ever actually listened to someone who doesn’t believe we landed on the moon? Their arguments are easily discarded with common sense, and a third grade knowledge of science.
Besides, you do not go up to a man from a generation where honor was everything, and call him a coward and liar. You deserve to have your ass handed to you punk.
That picture from Drudge’s website seems to say a lot. However, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has issued a statement attempting to defend the massive amounts of pork er ham in the stimulus bill.
Remember, the stimulus was supposed to stimulate the economy.
Response to Drudge Item on Recovery Act Funding
Statement from Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack
“Through the Recovery Act, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has made $100 million available to the states for The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), which acquires food that is distributed to local organizations that assist the needy – including food banks, food pantries, and soup kitchens.
The Recovery Act funds referenced in press reports allowed states to purchase ham, cheese and dairy products for these food banks, soup kitchens and food pantries that provide assistance to people who otherwise do not have access to food. This program will help reduce hunger of those hardest hit by the current economic recession.
The references to “2 pound frozen ham sliced” are to the sizes of the packaging. Press reports suggesting that the Recovery Act spent $1.191 million to buy “2 pounds of ham” are wrong.
Just like when the president said the stimulus plan was working exactly how it designed to … we learn that it really is. This is another example of the government ’stimulus’ creating, and preparing for you being dependent upon them.
