" Apologies to Blog Special Armadillo Wrangler Friedman of the Plains, but this one couldn&amp;#039;t wait until Thursday.  &amp;quot;The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 46 million people. &amp;quot;Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us &amp;#039;Please Do Not Feed the Animals.&amp;#039; Their stated reason for the policy is because &amp;#039;The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.&amp;#039; &amp;quot;Thus ends today&amp;#039;s lesson in irony #\u200EOKGOP&amp;quot;  This isn&amp;#039;t the first time this particular conservative trope has found its way out of the sludge pile. It isn&amp;#039;t even the second time. Or the third. Or the fourth.  Party of ideas! Jesus, these really are the fking mole people. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
