Subject: RE: BS: KKK/Tea Party Day
Are you projecting all these Bobert facts onto the teabaggers?

"I hate it that the Supreme Courth has got 5 memebers with their heads up Rush Limbaugh's ass"

That must be painful. Now where is the documentation?

Are the stats purported to be from the U.S.D.A correct or is the Obama stats and the Census bureau correct?

Why is Obama only interested in the epidemic of childhood obesity?

"Don'tcha just *hate* it when ol' hillbilly knows what the heck he's talkin' about???" No Bobert, the hate is your forte.

Nowhere have I said I hate anybody or anything.

"The claim of 1 in 5 children go to bed hungry is from statistics provided by, ahhhhhh, the leftie U.S.D.A!!!"

Where Bobert? When I google "1 in 5 Children Hungry" I see

No results found for "1 in 5 Children Hungry" Below that it says

"Fact: 1 in 5 children in South Africa go to bed hungry each night."

I see nothing like that at the USDA website.

do seePrevalences of Food Insecurity and Food Insecurity With Hunger

National Conditions and Trends

Eighty-nine percent of U.S. households were food secure throughout the
entire year 2003 (fig. 1). "Food secure" means that all household members had access at all times to enough food for an active, healthy life. The remaining 12.6 million U.S. households (11.2 percent of all households) were food insecure at some time during the year. That is, they were, at times, uncertain of having, or unable to acquire, enough food for all household members because they had insufficient money and other resources for food. About two-thirds of food-insecure households avoided hunger, in many cases by relying on a few basic foods and reducing variety in their diets. But 3.9
million households (3.5 percent of all U.S. households) were
food insecure to the extent that one or more household members were hungry, at least some
time during the year, because they couldn't afford enough food.



AHHHHHHH it says right there on the USDA website that 3.5 % of households hand one or more members hungry at least some time.

1 in 5 is 20 % so where did your number come from Bobert?
