There are Many Ways to Starve a Child

Jim Weill's post on the Hill Blog captures perfectly the impractical and immoral decision Congress may make to rob food stamp funding to pay for school lunches.  A mean decision considered by itself, comparing it to the TARP bailout makes me nauseated.  How stupid are our Congress critters even to consider willfully depriving our children and their families of adequate daily calories and nutrition, especially given where unemployment stands right now?  Healthy countries want healthy citizens and invest in that health.  I pray that this bill doesn't pass.
